Hey all!


As you might have seen in the game update newspost, each week we like to highlight a forum thread to share with our community members who might not frequent the forums that often.


Up until now I've been curating which threads get featured with the help of the trusty F-Mod team. We've managed to share some real treasures so far - seriously, Gisell's Goebie painting is a masterpiece!


Going forward however I'd like everyone's input to help us decide what should be getting extra attention each week! Which is exactly what we'll be doing here!


RULES:



  1. You can't share your own thread here. You've gotta share someone else's!

  2. We prefer to showcase newer threads, preferably created (or at least used) in the last week or so!

  3. Ideally we like to share threads that can be viewed without logging in (to make it as easy as possible to see). With that in mind, try to stick to the following categories wherever possible: Community Home, Events and Competitions, General, RuneScape Lore Discussion, News Discussion, RuneScape Guides and Help & Game Content Suggestions .


Ultimately myself (or another CM) will make the final decision on what thread gets featured, but we will be taking from here as much as possible!


FORMAT:

I look forward to seeing what you share!

Reason it should be showcased: the author of this thread, Trewavas, puts in a lot of time and effort into creating parody songs that center on RuneScape stuff! He usually does popular songs or well-known songs, but he takes requests, and the songs are usually gold! :D

Edit: it's not exactly a newer thread, but the posts are very current!

RuneScape Lore Discussion

Although not a fast moving forum, this forum has some real gems in it, it always has. With that said, although the following threads don't meet the criteria in terms of being written within the last week or so they are a sampling of some of the most recent contributions to that forum to choose from.



QFC: 341-342-44-66160200 (How Strong Are the Dragonkin? by Alkenalfh 15-May-2020 04:04:51 - Last edited on 15-May-2020 04:12:07 by Alktenalfh)

Reason it should be showcased: Well, just how strong are the Dragonkin????

QFC: 341-342-315-66161113 (The End of Runescape By Stretch1028 19-May-2020 22:06:35)

Reason it should be showcased: "...Kerapac and Seren decide that it is best to use the Needle to create a bubble around Gielinor, not unlike that of Guthix's edict. This bubble will split time into two shards - one, with Gielinor stuck in time pre-Elder War, the other continuing in time to face Gielinor's fate..."

*cough* how ironic is it that a pinned thread that highlights just how little attention & information that Jagex's own forum gets from Jagex is recommended...


Anyhoo...on to another recommendation...

Social Media News V26: Jul '20

Loki's thread in General chat always gives us plenty of links to Social Media. A lot of us don't use Social Media and the guy does an awesome job each month and puts in a lot of effort.

I would love to see his thread Spotlighted for a week.


I'm going to go ahead and second this idea. Promoting this thread would be great to get other, newer members involved in the community. There's a list of available platforms that Jagex uses so players could easily find whichever media that they prefer to see RS news on. Additionally, players have the option to post here and/or receive updates via this thread. A marvelous idea in my opinion :)

If we're trying to get more players involved here on the RSOF, or in RS-related social media in general, then this thread is the golden ticket.

Ooh, thank you, Windsofnight! I wasn't expecting a nomination!! Thank you!!

I have another suggestion!

QFC: 55-56-524-65811295 (I support your purple hair v2)
Reason it should be showcased: Do you like purple hair? How do you feel about food fights?

Purple Hair is a rather unique forum game, breaking from the usual 'count to...' or 'A-Z' games. Twillow - the author of this thread, our very own resident purple-haired hair expert - wants the forum community to support purple hairs' claim to the thread. But anyone can claim it, and anyone can support their claim! Anything goes! Maybe start a food war! Maybe try to distract a fellow fourmer from trying to make their mark on this thread! With whatever tactic necessary!! Just to prove your point! If you want to learn more, you gotta partake!

Bonus: this is the second iteration, so you know it's enjoyable!

(Thanks to Trewavas for assisting in creating a beautifully written summary!)

Qfc: 15-16-60-66168302
Reason it should be showcased: Well I can't showcase my own post on the matter but it needs raising awareness as it's going to be a big problem if the new quest is released and this remains as is.
