Only thing that made me install it was custom avatars (which should exist already w/o extensions), always wanted a white walker avatar because they look cool.

Otherwise it's really just like RFI.

Jagex are just slow with their updates so people have to keep creating new extensions to make our forum experience more enjoyable. They do like 1 small (which they call big) forum update 1-2 times a year and then promise so much more but we see nothing. I'll be glad for the day where we can forum properly without having to install all these extensions just to be able to meet other forum standards.

Didn't we have that ''ethical'' issue with RFI?

As of now, Jagex will absolutely not do any work on RSOF until the new Runescape 3 website comes out. Which may very well not be for months.

RS Linkify contains all the fixes Jagex should have done for their forums. Now, it just have extra features to boot. Honestly, the only thing non-extension users are missing out is image embedding. Which is a MUST in hlf these days.

Currently, it is Jagex's fault that we have to come to this point. They're indirectly splitting the community into non-extension users and extension users, you could say that.

I still try to have Moerdred to get RS Linkify but he cant't because fmods aren't allowed to use forum extensions for security reasons (private fmod forums.)

Yeah problem is Jagex. They are so slow that the players decide to take a stand and fix the problems for them via an extension, it's sad but that's what it's come to.

They promise all these reworks and all we see is several small changes (like quoting, colour changes) and then nothing for months (or years).

These forums are a joke without extensions, which is why people decide to code extensions to make forums what they should be.
