Hmm. I'm not sure whether I'm interested in putting in the effort for all of those (I'm a lazybones :P ) but... What would you think of making a Zamorak one yourself, Lupus?

Maybe different people can maintain different threads, and the threads can all link to each other?

It would probably be easier and less spamy if we organized it all in one thread, but I don't want to plagiarize or rip off from your thread. I could set up a new thread if you didn't mind me ripping off from this one. Or maybe you could make it and have everyone gather quotes?

Hmm. I don't mind you making a Zamorak equivalent thread—and if we only have the Zamorak, Zaros and Saradomin threads for now, maybe it won't be too spammy.

On the other hand, maybe we could have a collaborative thread with each person 'owning' a number of posts to maintain and add quotes to, or me maintaining the thread and everyone gathering quotes for me to add to it - but then again, these concepts might result in gods whose sections are closer to the top getting more visibility. In such a case, maybe separate threads are better.

What do you think?

As much as I would like to believe I'm impartial to all factions, I do admit I have a bias against Zaros. To be fair it's not because of his ideals, or in-game/out of game 'canonical' information, but rather...player speculation (not my own speculation) reasons, I still don't think I can claim to be that. :P

I wish that weren't the case, but it is.

Anyway, I second the idea of making a collaborative thread where each of you get a certain amount of reserves so that you can personally edit each section for your own faction. As far as visibility bias goes, maybe they could all start on the 2nd page (going on to future pages) with a link in the first post/first page, which would direct you to the page that the faction resides on. Maybe each faction could get their own page of reserves.

I've done things like that in the past (thread where multiple people get reserves) and it's worked quite nicely, so I think it'd work for your purposes just fine. So long as you can all agree on who makes the original post. (Could use a fake account if no agreement can be made)

I'd also think such a thread would be very useful. You can only fully appreciate a story when you experience it through the eyes of one of its characters.

I still do not like Saradomin, I didn't feel like reading all the quotes, but in world event 2, it is confirmed that Saradomin would rip wings off his followers to die on their harsh world because they did not wish to fight. Come the Sixth-Age, the world will need the World Guardian.

Please do read all of the quotes—and Mod Moltare (the designer for The Bird and the Beast) confirmed on Twitter that Garlandia's story was biased.

Unless she was totally lying, "I refused to fight so Saradomin ripped my wings off" still sounds pretty bad. A Zamorakian lorehound, probably.

Well, even Saradomin's opponents on this forum haven't taken the 'I refused to fight so Saradomin ripped my wings off' at face value. There's been ample discussion and speculation on the matter. Would you like to hear my theory?

I'm not taking it at face value; she's probably using it for political purposes, and there were probably other factors involved. Regardless, it doesn't make Saradomin look good.

Sure; let's hear it. A Zamorakian lorehound, probably.
