We have faeries and Mahjarrat and dragons. There is some type of Fantasy element here. I think Tom says it's Renaissance is when he's doing some type of political endeavor and due to our ignorance of knowledge of every piece of that period, that's how our character's somehow f**ked up this way and that and now they're being dethroned, killed, or put on trial. It seems the elements of the game only change when they're in someone's favor, based on personal observation. A similar argument holds - does physics apply to Runescape?

lol don't take this too seriously but whatever
Right action is better than knowledge; but in order to do what is right, we must know what is right.

I couldn't disagree with your conclusions any more. Runescape is definitely dated in the 18th century, very Enlightenment yes. In fact I will be issuing all troops in Varrock with muskets and hand grenades now. Be scared of our glorious Polish Hussars.

I think it's pretty much fact by this point people change whatever they want to suit themselves everyone does it and no one is innocent but this isn't a new thing it's how it's been for a while.


Honestly this seems like a big huffly puffly about nothing, though i do appreciate the points that have been made here. Noice.

Does it matter? Nothing ever happens on 42 anyways. This is a game, quit overthinking it. People will rp what they want and when.

And they can. Never said they couldn't. What I am saying is the way we interpret the holes we fill in our structures, specifically PoKs affects the roleplay around them. If you don't run/play nobles in a PoK, this is entirely unimportant.

As for overthinking... That's the product of a free morning to type this up and nothing better to do.

Hi :)

I am not really familiar with the RS-forums, so i don't know if anyone will respond on this message.

I'm a history student at the University of Leuven and I'm doing research on the elements of history in Runescape. Since it's been a long time since i've played runescape and I'm not completely familiar with the Runescape lore, i'm wondering of anyone of you guys is willing to help me (I loved the idea of Filianore of the similarities between the renaissance and runescape)? If so, maybe we could arrange a meeting in game?

Thanks!
