Maybe theyll delete HLF and give us a shiny in-game title and we can make a forum game post called "100 posts before a HLFer title"

sound fun, im thinking like 1k posts in hlf to unlock title?

I posted similar in a different thread, if you dont like bumping graves then make some new threads.

Personally i'm not interested in forum counts or anything else, but HLF was always a fun place to be, and then it was dead, at least by playing our little game we are prompting some life into the forum.

Nobody cared when the forum was dead, so why do you care if a few of us are having a bit of harmless fun?

I'm all for creating discussion where there isn't any, but half of the grave bumps are wholly irrelevant and do not bring out anything positive to the forums.

Bump ones to engage conversation by all means, but look at some of the time stamps for last post and we're talking 2018 / earlier. Completely redundant.

or worse theyre meant to imply the same sentiment as the jagex mod t-shirts they picture themselves wearing sometimes:

"its not a bug its a feature"
"worst update ever"

they sold one of those shirts to us as if to harness us in the pursuit of our own mockery.

so bumping a thread about 120 slayer is meant to imply its the same gripe as before that po farm is nerfed, MTX is hyped, etc; and it ignores that many "vanishings" have taken place at Jagex this year, and three community team employees are now absent, all before the moment when VIP players renew subscriptions for a whole year.
I have quit rsof because moderator found comments about darklight bonus damage on demons "off topic" for wildy flash mobs full of demons

But haven't we established that Jagex doesn't pay attention to this forum and boosting out of sync data only fractures the conversation and alienates any sense of community we have left. We need to keep the discussion relevant and boosting the old days won't do that.

Honestly, Jagex doesn't care about hlf anymore and hasent for quite a few years, they switched to using reddit as their site to gather information from and haven't looked back. That's the fact why the hlf is so dead these days.

I don't think there is a soul on these forums who can dispute that.

I'd argue that the HLF has stopped being a condiut to the mods and we should just use it as a place to discuss, chat, shittalk and hangout. I mean, back when I was really into ironman, Wey's ironman discussion thread was a great place to discuss the content, methods, goals and just generally have a laugh with the iron community.

I don't really add people in the game, I have 1 long time game friend and 1 irl friend, neither of which I really speak to all that often and when I do it's through other channels. But being on here provides an opportunity to chat with the community within these walls, and leave messages for them and provide discussion places etc.

Jagex has forsaken us, but we don't have to forsake each other.

That's very true, but with so few people to chat its kinda dead so that's unfortunate, but lets make it alive again so hi :)
