'Ooh, ooh,does this mean I get the title. I contributed a lot to the Darkscape wiki when it was running and the RS3 wiki. Seriously though, this title shouldn't even exist. And leaving it in the hands of players to decide who gets it, worst idea Jagex has ever had.'

@Jack Flac , Hi, idk, tbh. Seems like RSW is handing the title out to everyone & their mother, so why shouldn't you get one too.
There appears to be a discussion thread on RSW Forums , Yew Grove > Sister Wikis & Affiliates for Wikian Title by Kent Knifen December 11, 2016. I will provide the OP & a few comment hightlights since it does mention DarkScape.

Sister Wikis & Affiliates for Wikian Title by Kent Knifen December 11, 2016
OP: So I understand from Runescape:The Wikian that people from the OSRS Wiki, RSC Wiki, and non-English Wikis will be able to be nominated in the next batch of nominations. However, the article makes no mention at all of Sister Wikis or of Affiliates. I was hoping we could get this out of the way now to avoid issues in the future as to whether or not other Sister Wikis and Affiliates would be considered for the title. The full list of Sister Wikis and Affiliates can be found at RuneScape: Links [1]
I was under the impression that this title is not meant to be exclusive, which is why I personally feel we should extend the offer to Sister Wikis and Affiliates. Many of these Sister Wikis have worked very hard to fill in gaps that this Wiki is not designed for (Such as DarkScape, RS Clans, RS Players, Funorb, etc...). It does not seem fair, in my opinion, that they should be excluded from the title for focusing on specific areas of the game instead of the overall game and the main Wiki.
Please share your thoughts, I am eager to hear what people think of this extension to the title.

WHERE IS MY INGAME RSOF TITLE?!

RE: 15.10 Replying To: OMG! An Epiphany Moment. WHERE ARE OUR in-game RSOF TITLES?! Shouldn't we have gotten them before anyone else?

'I thought the same
but how to decide who is worthy?! Give the power to fmods! pls no.

If we can learn one thing from the RSW Titlegate mess is that working those things out before announcing that a in game title is available for distribution should be done first.
If we look at the post from the RSW Yew Grove thread by Kent Knifen, Gaz Lloyd, Admin has included additional requirements that are not outlined in the Guidelines on the RuneScape: The Wikian page that lets folks know who qualifies for the title. Those 'unknown' qualifiers that nobody knows about can be problematic. It also appears that he continues to expand on the bounds of the original intent of who the title was meant for, which can also be problematic.
RSW is the only Jagex Official Approved Fansite, that is, IMO, the implied original intent, who the title is for.
All of the information I have posted on the RSW Titlegate should be helpful as a reference point for future discussion points for a RSOF in game title.
Can you imagine if Mod Shauny posted a statement that a in game title was available for the RSOF & he was leaving it up to one person to decide who got to have the title without having all of those pesky little details worked out before the announcement?

In the meantime, how do you like my 1st forum signature? In the recent past The RuneScape Community is slowly ripped apart and contaminated with Players who are eager in obtaining a title.
Sadly their well-known efforts, and Public Awards of being a Popular Resource, aren't enough so grabbing a title would create enough satisfaction, I guess?
Let me remind you for how long Moderators have been spit on for having a title, given by Jagex after a beforehand thorough examination, and complained about up to this day that it is quite contradicting what is happening on The RSOF.
In this Zarosian Era Players themselves are pinning the most loved titles on theirs chest boosting up their ego's. Woaw, amazing, selfish hero's.

'As for recieveing The Wikian title, I don't really care to be honest. That post was meant to be sarcasm for the most part. The title doesn't mean anything. I put in the effort I did on the Darkscape Wikia because of my love for the game, not because I expected a reward.
I will stand by the view that the title shouldn't exist.'

@Jack Flac, Hi, you know the ol' saying, it takes one (that posts sarcasm, on occassion) to know one (post that has sarcastic elements to it).
Your sarcasm worked out to be a perfect lead in for providing the RSOF community with information on the new thread over on RSW. It does mention that some members of RSW community do support Darkscape Wiki contributors with being awarded the title too.
I agree that most people do put a lot of effort & time into contributing information to RSOF, fansites & platforms like wiki, just like you do, because of their love for the game & the community that they are contributing information to, not because they expected some type of reward for doing it.
I do understand the point of view that the title should not exist & that sentiment is shared by others, but the cat has been let out of the bag so to speak. That title is here to stay. After all Gaz Lloyd, Admin of RSW has used the title in game already, he tweeted a screen shot of it on the day Mod Shauny announced it.
