Since when is ***** allowed in RuneScape? We've been posting it for years in the suggestions thread and we keep getting rejected. The game filters "*****" since 2006 and even with my filter off I have to name it to friends as "Zbyez" to avoid the dumb filter.

Kire667 - swift switch is now known as Swiftkit... and it is no longer hosted by Zybezz... it's hosted by Tip it. Before anyone mentions hypocrisy (and it would be easy to do with only that bit of information)... Zybezz has not continued to be censored for that reason.

It's down to advertising. Jagex have advised top fan sites that to be recognised = Jagex hosting the advertising that is generated on each site. This was not practical for Zybezz and they chose a different host that gave a better deal. Jagex were annoyed and punished the site by maintaining the censor

So why block Zyb now if that's old news? Everyone don't have to be controlled by Jagex The REAL rs wiki (not the fake one by Jagex) isn't sponsored by Jagex Ltd and they're still among the top sites around for this game.

They reviewed my fansite and just because we're free hosted by Google Ad Sense, Jagex turned a blind eye and refused to list our URL on their clan database or other areas of interest. Got to love one-sided companies with a hidden agenda to ensure the true help sites are never recognized or overshadowed by newer ones like RuneZone that get all the hype and attention for letting Jagex have their way with them.

I hope to see all of you at Zybezz's Halloween event which will be hosted in my Player owned house. Remember to wear your Halloween costume and your best shield and weapon. See you there!
