Hey, does anyone know if there are any plans to implement the forums into the official Jagex launcher?
It would be very very very difficult to make a message board communicate with a non-web browser without some form of an api and lots of protection from malicious api usage. You'd basically would need to revamp the entire system to be able to support it, and even then would be iffy having such a dynamic system update frequently enough.

Unless you meant like a link to load and sign in from there, but there's only so much space available, and best not clutter it. The link to the respective game's website (already on the game slides) works best. The user can load the site and go to whichever service they need in the moment from there. Cause the forums arent the only service people would want to use. Acct settings, runemetrics, hiscores, etc, are there too....and buttons for all of it would get clunky,
Can I turn in a paper without citing all sources?

Hello Dark Monster

I've removed a post where you named an account. This can't be done.

By the sounds of it you were Scammed. You named someone who you claim took billions form several accounts in a few mins.

I would suggest you make a New Thread within the Account Help section to get some links that will help you secure the Account and E-Mail address if thats been used by said person too.

Sadly nothing we can do about stolen cash or items. It's not a bug as you clam it's just someone who tricked you out of your cash and items.

Good luck with this issue.

I've also edited out your Signature as you named and shamed them there also.

Live long and Prosper...... :P

Hey I just started to play the game again after a year break! I was having a ton of fun and it had only been 2 days since I bought membership so I finished maxxing last night after many years and then this morning I was playing and all of a sudden I afk and come back and I was hacked. I haven't been on any suspicious websites and I had to deactivate my authenticator 2 days ago because I got a new phone so I am wondering if jagex has data leaks because I haven't been hacked on anything before except this game and I haven't bought gold or played on private servers and the only time I plug in my password is to buy membership on the website. This is weird and I wish you guys had a way to get me my 3b back but unfortunately there probably isn't which is a miss on your end but I got hacked at 8:45am pst and am left with no reason to why I was hacked besides deactivating the authenticator for a few days but really that shouldn't have been an issue if you guys have good security an authenticator should just be double the security so why was I hacked? I spent a couple hours this morning going through emails and checking all my recently viewed websites and I literally didn't do anything since I got back into runescape 2 days ago except for max which then shows the world of RS that your account is good and the next morning I get hacked... It's weird and I feel cheated didn't do anything wrong yet all that progress is gone so rip I will not play again without my items so that's a sad way to end my time on RS.

Unfortunately, disabling the Authenticator is a security hazard because it makes it easier for a third-party to hijack your account. It's the player's responsibility to keep their accounts secured and protected at all times. Jagex provides you with various layers of security settings -- which may be found here on this Security tips Support page -- in order to have the best protection on your account.

However, it's up to the player to keep those layers intact and to keep their accounts safe. Jagex is unable to control what you do on the Internet and if you don't employ a safe Internet browsing routine, then it doesn't matter what you have here on RuneScape.com because your account may be in jeopardy.

Furthermore, it's also the player's responsibility to keep their computer safe. Jagex is unable to control on what device you play on and/or if they are safe to use while you are playing the game. You weren't hacked/hijacked because of Jagex's security; you were hacked/hijacked because your account was missing an important piece of security and that made it easier for the hijacker to enter.

Sadly, items that are lost due to a hijack event are not able to be returned by Jagex, as mentioned here on this Support article: Lost items .
