Yet how are they going to notice this if they dont read the forums?... /s

Plus this still doesnt disprove my main point:

No need for anything like this as it wouldnt solve the core problem.

Just because thered be a tag doesnt mean OP has to start explaining themselves to make it less misleading...

We are trying to get more Jagex Moderators to participate within the community and this idea makes them work more. I do not think that's necessary at all. I'm sure that they wouldn't want to do something like this, to be honest. As you mentioned, Reddit already does this and J-Mods are already part of the Reddit community. As far as I am aware, I have not seen a "misleading" post on the 2007scape or RuneScape sub-reddit.

I wholeheartedly believe that we should be focusing our goals into getting more Jagex Moderators to form part of the RuneScape community once again; however, with this idea, what you are trying to accomplish is even harder than getting FMR checked out. It's already difficult for Mod Kari to check FMR considering the time she has. Furthermore, apart from sending this to a J-Mod's queue, you have to think about the Web Team implementing this and as I read Mod Lyon's posts, their energy is currently focused on bigger and more essential projects right now.

All in all, it's superfluous to add a feature that does not really bring in more traffic to the Forums. As an addendum, it would also create an extra queue for a J-Mod to check potential misleading information. As it is, I'm fully confident that you are aware how hard it is to get a J-Mod to be here. Mod Kari's attempts to take care of FMR as swiftly as possible is the best evidence that we have.

If you think that a thread is "misleading", let the F-Mods know about it through Forum Help. If the F-Mods are unable to assist you in that specific matter, I am sure that they will summon the L-Mods/CMs. If L-Mods/CMs are incapable of actioning such a report, then, by all means, it will be forwarded to a J-Mod for a potential review. We do not want to add more work for J-Mods when we are trying to get them here in the first place.

I really don't know how to respond to this thread, as we already lack Jmod activities here in RSOF for many years - so don't expect them to carry-out tasks RSOF related. Given that Runescape will enter Steam super soon, that platform also provides its own Forum system - which is much more sophisticated and modern than RSOF can ever be.

can some accounts have a "title" with misinformation

that would help loads too

got a few in mind already


No. You can't because once in a while even known trolls banned numerous times can have something constructive to share, and they should be allowed to.

The misleading label is for the Fmods to add, it doesn't involve the Jmods. In fact, it may catch the Jmods' attention when they come to the RSOF but have no time to tend to the FMR thread.

If they had "something constructive to share", they wouldn't have been banned numerous times before being able to normally participate in the community, if applicable and if possible.

So, which one is it? Are J-Mods involved or not? You said this on the previous page...

Will J-Mods be involved in this practice or not?

Reddit has the label tool but the Runesape and OSRS subs don't use the label for misleading labelling while other subs with much bigger communities do.

Having Jmods spending more time on FMR also doesn't bring more traffic to the RSOF but TBH integrity and order of the forums should be a far bigger focus to Jmods than "traffic".

Jmods like Kari don't need to do anything specific with my suggestion as it is not part of FMR and they don't even have to respond to it. The label has nothing to do with forum offense or warning at all. it is just informative to all the RSOF users.

They are not required to, but of course they can if they want to.
