Nothing about me in here, 0/10 thread.

Seriously though, it was a good read. As a relative latecomer to the lore community, it was interesting to learn about how our community emerged and how things were before my time. The lore of the lore community, if you will. Although I already had at least a vague idea of many of the things covered in this thread, it taught me some things as well, particularly from the earlier years of the community before there was a lore forum or Lore FC.

Looking back, it look like there was a treasure trove of missed information in regards to The Scrying Pool's FC. It seems like TSP was significantly more active in the lore community back then, and much of the 5th Age community important points were built in the FC.

I heard a interesting story about how J Mods would visit TSP FC, sorta like how they visit Lore FC now and apparently they would give some leaks of lore information and there was a huge debate among TSP whether the leaked lore should remain secret only among the higher ups of the community or if it should be shared to all. IIRC this fued got so bad that eventually the J Mods stopped coming. Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain. An all encompassing force of evil that will remain ever-threatening and use chaos to make the peoples of Gielinor tolerate each other, grow strong together, and fight side by side against this evil. I am that villain.

Well, I can definitely say that I learned a few things here. It's definitely nice to have a history of the community as a whole, written from a fairly unbiased perspective.

One thing from a response jumped out at me, though:

Hazeel said :
-Aegis of Saradomin is a new clan that was founded in 2016. In 2014, The Hallowed Order was the defacto Saradominist Clan, lead [sic] by Ascertes.

AoS was started in, at latest, 2015.

Aside from that, I'll also note that Crystal Wings changed its name to Arcane Chroniclers in early-ish (April? May?) 2015, and by mid-October of the same year, had disbanded.

I double checked. I was founded in February 2016....not that this really matter though. Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain.

Made some minor changes based on Hazeel's and others corrections.

TODO still:
Section on the tsp fc
Section on Tales of Zaros

Any other particular time periods you feel need to be worked on? -Ascertes, King of all the Hallowlands and the Everchosen of Saradomin.
