Hey everyone,

It has been brought to my attention that recently there have been many problems and a lot of drama occurring in this forum thread.

I don't care who is right, who is wrong or about any of the drama going on but this is a chat lounge. The purpose of this thread was to hang out on the HLF, speak to people you've never talked to before, talk about random RuneScape things (Since this is the RS Discussion/General Chat Lounge), meet new friends and have a relaxed and calm environment. The point of this thread seems like it has lost its purpose at the moment.

As I look around the chat lounge it seems like the same few people are posting. All I've seen recently with this thread is problems, mainly between those same few people too. So if these problems continue to occur and everyone doesn't stop trolling each other and not getting along I'll be forced to lock this thread or take further action with certain players HLF access. It would hurt my heart to lock such a historic piece of the HLF but if you all can't get along and not cause problems here then I'll have to do so.

I hope you can all get along peacefully and not cause one of the oldest threads on the HLF to get locked.

I think rather than locking this thread, it should be renamed to "welcome new members to HLF"

Because, like you said, the premise of this thread is to create friendship and welcoming people. All I see is the same people posting random things on here. Ask the odd question and can be ignored by people talking about cats.

I'm not good at time based challenges and I'd look at the time and my switches would get messed up

All about minimising how many items you had to switch. E.G: Using void with Noxious, or Warpriest with Seismics. Two items is a good number to switch, but when it comes to 3, it starts to get tricky.

Not true. Plenty of people ask plenty of things on here. It's a chat lounge for general chat , you can't get annoyed at people for not dropping their conversations.

Anyway, not getting into it.

Understandable but, 90% of you are friends on runescape, teamspeak, and skype. I agree with lee.

Edit: All I was trying to say in the original post was it would be more inviting for people to enter this chat if it was renamed. That is all.

I'd use warpriest + weapon switches because void and the helmets were driving me a bit crazy. I admit I'm bad at hybriding and lack practice so I went for the easiest method.

But the whole timed challenges thing is in my head. Not only on RuneScape. I always tend to avoid time based levels or assignments on all games :P

My mum's the same way. She was an avid Tomb Raider fan and she could never do the timed levels, I always did them for her. As psychologist Lathow said, I'm one of the people that rely on muscle memory to do stuff (e.g: driving around on race tracks) so timed stuff is no issue for me, but thinking about how to do something would mess me up so badly.

He put it in a good way: If I had to think about how to take a certain corner on a certain track, I'd mess it up. I rely on just "knowing" how to do it, and I guess to some extent that applies to doing some things on RuneScape. Such as rotations at Nex or something with my thresholds and ultimates, my DPS drops extremely hard if something goes wrong in a kill, it's off time, or something.

What is the purpose of having HLF off-topic general chat lounge and HLF general chat lounge? No one uses them any diff

You've asked this before, and I've answered this before. Different lounges have different atmospheres. Look at the regulars on each lounge, and there's barely any cross over. It'd be stupid to merge them.
