"Mod Chris E,
When i use Facebook to login into the game it is a true nightmare to hop between instances like the citadel for example. All the time a new request has to be sended all the time between the server and Facebook. Could you take a look at this? "
===
I'll pretend to be Mod Chris E for a moment...
I was not aware of this issue, but it does sound a bit nasty. I will take a look at it on Monday, and hopefully we should be able to fix it (I think I know where the problem is, just from hearing your description, so we should be able to fix it for the next update, or maybe the one after if not).
Thanks for your help

1) Is adjustable render distance possible? I don't like the gray wall!
- Yes, done that, but see earlier answer about memory issues in live.
2) What exactly 'caused the FPS for many players to lower? Mine have been improving btw!
- Code obfuscation, sorry
Dastardly botters.
3) Would there be anyway to remove lag lines?
- Again, done that, but memory is again an issue.

Hi Trevorghost:
"Will RuneScape ever see support for multiple cores, especially with them becoming more prevalent?"
We're actively looking at this with several improvements to take advantage of multi-core CPUs - when we're happy that the code we've added is stable enough, we'll look at rolling it out.

3) The new water looks like a disaster in narrow areas like rivers. Are you going to do anything about it or are you going to make a special water effect just for rivers such as water streaming down the river?
-
I have plans for the water system, but they're very preliminary at the moment.

Hi game engine team
1) Would Jagex ever consider releasing the tools used to create the game for game developers (like myself) to see how they work?
- Maybe, but I think they'd probably scare you off to see the madness we make the content teams deal with!
2) Which other programming languages would you say runescript was similar to? Could we have a code snippet?
- Hmm, syntax wise it's similar to any C-style language, except variable names are prefixed with their type (eg. %varname is an integer). We also lack full array support. Other than that, it'd do pretty much anything you could do in C or Java.
3) What is the biggest piece of advice you would give to people who want to get into the games industry?
- As mentioned earlier, maths, maths and maths.
