My original and primary purpose was to establish an area for my clan over on the forums. I felt it was absolutely crucial from an organisational point of view, and to spread info on its events and activities.

I remember being so pleased when free players were given forum access. Still a great part of RS for me to this day.

Hiya, sorry this is a few days late; I don't see that anyone answered it already.

You'll need to look at the thread: Jagex Account Guardian . The last questions on there answer how to add or delete devices from JAG. When you contact Jagex, use the link to a ticket as it is faster then email. Also , be sure to use the template in the thread - you'll get faster results as they'll have the information needed.

Good luck, we don't want you to quit on those other accounts. “You're off to Great Places! Today is your day!

I remember the first time I used the forums and just seeing the Clan page plagued with ASCII art, to own a clan it was essential to have both a thread and an ASCII emblem of which people paid upwards of 30m for

My first Forum interaction was before the Grand Exchange, when I had to buy and sell items right here on the forums (or compete with other players in Varrock West Bank :P ). It was a great experience, trying to find the cheapest price for large purchases such as logs and ore.

The first thing I noticed about the forums was the number of players that used it almost daily. This was not only for purchasing goods, but also taking time out to chat as you would in-game (leading to the creation of numerous 'Chat' threads in different parts of the forums). This player-to-player, and even JMod interaction was vital in building the forums to what they are today!

I became a regular forum user (almost daily) a little over 2-3 years ago, when I started helping other players in the Tech Support forums. Loving all things Tech, I really enjoyed posting in this forum and have called it home ever since ^_^ . This is where I met other like-minded Techies, who I still interact with today.

My best moment on the forums would have to be creating this thread in the Tech Support forums, back in January 2012. It is still very popular, sitting at 2300+ posts right now:

I just wanted to see what it looked like when i posted something :)

I like seeing the forum avatars. Somehow, I never see faces up close in game - and we (maybe just) I take so much time creating it.

The brunette with purple highlights is stunning. Welcome to the forums. Hope to see more posts by you! “You're off to Great Places! Today is your day!

I originally started using these forums because keeping up with the ever-changing in-game market use to be quite difficult - prices varied from world to world and town to town, so I used the forum as a general guideline for item values. I also occasionally read the recent update forum to read the responses for players about updates.

Believe it or not, that section use to be a very positive one.

After some time of just lurking in the trade section, recent updates, and general; I made my first post(and thread, at the same time) in one of the trade boards to both buy and sell a variety of items, as well as trade smithed bars/fletched bows for raw materials. Although this later got me banned for a very significant amount of time(nearly two years), it used to be a great way to get exp and cost me nothing.

If I had to say something I noticed right away? It was that the community on the forum differed greatly from the one in-game. Although you had similarities here and there, and the general mindset was very much the same, the peoples' opinions were exact opposites. This is still very true today, and not just in RuneScape: every game forum has a very different crowd populating it than the community that remains voiceless in-game.

What made me stay? My desire for knowledge. Nothing in particular makes me enjoy a forum, I'm more-or-less attracted to the abundance of information available on them.

The first clan I joined, The Green Dragons, back in 2004 used forums. I remember working my way up the ranks in the clan until I was finally granted the honour of a 'page 1 post'.

Was awesome, the lucky (10?) members of the clan who had a page 1 post were able to use it to post updates to their skills/achievements etc. Was great fun and something I miss :P
