I, Katrina J306, , ask that Jagex don't remove the forums" I used to belong to the SkillNStoof clan for many years. I am now between clans but used the forums to research joining a clan again and I am pretty sure Anarchy Dogs will be it for me. I also regularly use the D and D distractions part of forum reading posts for info on penguins, stars, ports and more without logging in. are you going to move and integrate the archived forums into Runescape wiki?? That would be more acceptable to me than getting rid of it. The forums are also good for troubleshooting technical issues.
To be honest, my next step will be to call the Corporation headquarters directly. I would like to know if someone is getting a kickback to try to force us all onto these other platforms that many of us do not use or no longer use for very good reasons. There needs to be a poll and more transparency and possible reconsideration on this issue. I understand that the company is for sell, if it is a matter of money renting space on a website, that needs to be explained. Some of these other 3rd party apps are currently changing how they are run and attempting to charge money for using and posting in their apps. Often there is no good indexing nor cross correlation to other threads such as you have on these forums. As a result for researching and trouble shooting and sharing tips, this forum is much more effective and efficient. The others are not very well organized for referencing.
If it is a matter of hitting your company in the paycheck- I would be happy to stop buying keys, bonds, etc and other in game spending every few months from which you get a hefty little amount from me every year to show my unhappiness and strong disagreement over the poorly judged and poorly explained illogical decision to get rid of the forums completely. and for removing any access to them for research, clan recruitment, trades, d and d and mini game weekly help and posting.

this is the first time i have ever posted a message on forums but finally found my voice! i have had this account for over 15 years and have a second account also. I stood by when many changes were made that i didn't like .. but because i don't like them, didn't feel i needed to post about them. i feel strong enough to finally say something! I have put up with much, i was saddened when people became too busy clicking their way to 200 million to bother to even say hello anymore. this was a social media game .. but somehow Jax managed to take the social out of it.

I use the forums often. sometimes it is just to see if anyone is having same problem as I was. I finally got a new computer last year .. didn't solve my problems in some areas and to be honest i had even more. i resisted using the new log on format until i was forced to use it when i reloaded RS on my new computer. and i had a lot of problems. Then i put up for months with screen blinking so bad i would finally give up playing. thankfully and i believe it is because of the forums, RS resolved that problem but i went to forums to see if anyone else had this problem. i get kicked out of game so much i won't do any quests, slayer, etc as i wouldn't be alive by time i get back in. i have considered dropping both memberships and have not yet upped my subscriptions.

Like i said earlier, i use the forums even though i don't get on them. I like reading the stories people post, use the forums to do penguin hunts. if i am forced to use other methods, probably wouldn't do it. i would just go free to play.so i am asking the owners of this game, who i, like everyone who is a member, pay to play, who are in a way our employees and not our employers to reconsider discontinuing the forums .. just because a lot of people don't post to it, doesn't mean they don't use it. And maybe if those who run this game didn't encourage the use of outside progarms, we would see the social actions again

I know that was a long read just to say PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE FORUMS FROM US! but to be honest, this is the last straw for me to keep playing. As i read earlier ... there are other on line games one can play. Listen up Jax .. just because we don't hammer you about something, the voice is out there. Keep our forums!
