I just have a question about the free membership as its free for a few days, but what about the people who have spent money/bought bonds already for these days? I feel as though we should have these days added on considering we would be getting them anyways. I dont like to spend my money just to have others get it for free

The point of Open Weekend is to bring new/returning players into the game - it was never meant to be a courtesy for already playing members like ourselves.

I understand that, but how is it fair if I have to use my membership on "open weekend" if people who aren't paying for membership get for free. I understand its only a few days but thats a few more days I could be working towards another bond

I see people also using the religious argument, but I don't see people complaining about how religious practitioners often hand out flyers or little booklets trying to "spread the word of God." Some would argue that's shoving beliefs down others' throats... People are free to believe what they want and love who they want. I'm not out there shaming people for beliefs that differ from my own. Since when did tolerance become a dirty word?

Thank you, Jagex, for trying to promote equality in this toxic community.


Yes, but those people spreading flyers and booklets don't throw you in prison if you are not with them (as the obama government). Also LGBT wants to forcefully put their sexual education in schools.

That's where the problems start appearing.


How is that a problem? Gay people don't deserve to learn how to have safe sex together in a place designed to teach and educate? O.o

We have those missionaries here in NZ that hand the fliers out. I've had one of them almost completely destroy one of my grocery bags while walking home, because I wouldn't accept his flier - I always decline respectfully. They follow people back to their homes, and always try to force themselves inside to talk to you about their religion, even if you tell them, politely, that you are not interested.
Religious people can, but obviously not always, try to force their views down peoples throats, but are rarely ever willing to accept people have different views to their own.

To any religious people who are open to different views, while retaining your own, here is a friendly hug from me to you! :) *hug*

Never once did the my little pony tv series or sabaton music mention gay pride. You ruined this game forever for me. I picked Sobieski as a name, because I wanted to be cultured when playing.

Was I meant to giggle at the 69 inferno final wave number? I didn't because it was just a number. If respectable people want names with gay in them like ga-young i suppose jagex wants everyone to giggle.

People like me are very sensitive to moderated chats and gay pride. I have been bullied out of map making communities because the staff members had the logic that i deserved to be treated like sh** because i 'hate' a certain group of people.

WHERE ARE THE AUSTRALIAN SERVERS

Last I heard, the sysadmins had shipped out the kit to Australia, and were booking the servicing companies to make all the network changes needed to install them - it's not a simple plug-&-play job due to the extreme form of DDOS protection OSRS requires.

I had bought bonds on my accounts right before this free weekend was announced. Will I receive days added on my accounts to compensate? I paid for days everyone can get for free.

I'm afraid not; I gather that's fairly standard for limited trials like this :(

Now that Pest Control has an activity bar can we see the same for Castle Wars?

We could expand the thing in the respawn rooms to cover the whole minigame, provided the definition of 'activity' can be useful. It wouldn't be so helpful if we just prompted players to go splash on a friend from another team throughout.


Disappointed, but thank you for taking the time to respond.

I like what you tried to do with the PC update but I think it needs fixed.
The progress bar is dependent on how much/how fast you hit.
I tried attacking just portals with a faster weapon and it does just fine.
Then I tried with a Dharok's axe (a very slow hitting weapon) and b/c the progress bar is determined by how fast you hit it was struggling to keep up.
The update just needs tweaked so that slower hitting weapons don't have such a huge disadvantage in trying to keep up the progress bar.

I have certain views on the LGBT stance, but voicing my opinions over a game won't solve anything. It comes down to courtesy, don't force your beliefs on a group of people and expect them to not fire back.

In the end, it's as simple as just not acknowledging the event if you don't agree with it. No harm no foul. At least no one is forcing a belief on you.

As for Pest Control, good update Jagex. Now can we get an update on the status of OSHD? The coding behind the client and the status of its safety interests me.


Trashbag the stuffed? That's one of the best combo name/titles I have ever seen!


Thanks alot, I dont get compliments all that often. Probably the way I'm stuffed or smell....

On another note, can we get this activity time in other Minigames as well? I like it.
