Again, where the Fort is now was in Wilderness before the completion of the quest. The conversation between us and Flint was during the quest, not after.

But after we recruited Flint and finished the quest, it became part of Varrock and not Wilderness.

wrong

Overseer Siv:
We are in the Wilderness. I'm sure we can dig up something interesting to send them.


You totally missed the time of the conversation, but the reality Fort Forinthry will not be in the Wilderness after the introduction quest of Fort Forinthry is obvious.

Go ask Vala to turn on Opt-in PvP, then go to Fort Forinthry and see if you get skulled. Obviously not, because it is not part of Wilderness anymore. Everybody who has doubt please try it and see with your own eyes.

it is the same behavior before you build the fort, the distinction you are making is irrelevant


Totally wrong. We would be skulled in the northern part of where Fort Forinthry is now before the quest.

absolutely wrong. you can make a new account and try this before you do the quest. won't work.


I welcome everybody to try it, with a new account or not. I do believe at least some even in the RSOF already knew the incredibly obvious answer, especially when they knew the blue dragons that used to be in the part of Wildy where the new Fort is now were forced to move.

silly thing to even contemplate. two players who haven't started quest just pvping away in the middle of the fort you completed? please share what you are drinking dilbert

When was that? Before February 13, 2023, the date before Fort Forinthry was released, they could pvp when it was still part of Wildy around the blue dragons. Now, they can't unless they have a real life time machine.

You keep misunderstanding the timeline mechanics of MMORPGs. Real time and quest/story mode time are different.

Today is Feb 24, 2023 but the Time Guardian has already turned part of the SE corner of the old wildy into safe non-Wildy territory Varrock terrority on Feb 13, 2023. However, if you start doing the quest now, the date will be Feb 13, 2023 prior to the construction of the new Fort, when you talked to Father Flint.

hmm, that is a very creative way of admitting you were wrong, but ok


Everybody who plays multiplayer RPG should know new players can't be in the same time line in live game content 20 years ago. We killed Elvarg 22 years ago, but new players just out of Tutorial Island obviously hasn't actually kill him in the game but in live game mode they did.

OSRS just had Elvarg in their 10th Anniversary event even though new players hasn't started Dragon Slayer should not have known or met him. Please go tell Mod Ash that is a very creative way of admitting he had been wrong, but ok. Perhaps you can ask what he is drinking so we can all have that too. :D

As I see it--The fort is part of varrok but is not in varrok. The inside of the fort is a safe place ( like all forts in history) but it is located in the wilderness. Skulling has nothing to do with it. All in all it's our perspective. If you say it's not in wildy then happy for you but saying it's in wildy is also true.
Let's look at this way (maybe not best example but hopefully gives some perspective) .

If England were to go to the border of Scotland and build a fort with entrance from England, British people would be safe inside the fort but the fort would be inside Scotland. Ask a Scott what he thinks

No. British People still can't live in Scotland. The only way for British people to live in such Fort is for England annex and claim that piece of Fort as part of England. This is the case of Fort Forinthry - It is a Fort of OUR Own, speaking from the perspective of a citizen of Misthalin, not Wildyness. We can easily see that point from the fact there is no Wildyness level inside the Fort.

Just quoting this because any Scots are going to find this hilarious.

Perhaps Dilbert sees the future and Indy Ref 2 will be a success.

Perhaps Dilbert is simply just wrong, again.

Only whoever controlling a piece of land can set the rule of that piece of land. When Fort was part of Wildy it followed Wildy Rules and had Wildy levels and pvp skull enabled. It is now part of Misthalin and of course we don't have any Wildy Rules and effects there.

It is all safe to set up a GE in the land of Misthalin now, of course.
