I'm pretty sure that 'rumor' is
way
off, Guthix. If you remember, the forums were running
much
slower right after the forum maintenance about a month ago. That was shortly before they locked out F2P, and the forums have since been running faster. Besides, Jagex wouldn't gain anything from lying about the situation if that theory were true.
At this point I believe what they've told us, and that it's a technical issue. I just don't think they're working on it like they claimed. Jagex aren't exactly known for their amazing web design, and this side usually gets updated embarrassingly slowly anyway. After all, formatting options were first announced almost two years ago and we only just got them.
