, I'm not Shauny but I'd like to vocalize my support for your ideas!

This subforum in particular is difficult to navigate, and the majority of Runescape players don't even use the forums. However, the forums are invaluable in terms of learning about what events are happening in-game, in addition to Runescape in general.

Not only do I agree that this subforum needs to be more user friendly for new or nascent forumers--since that's what the majority of Runescape players are--but I also really want Jagex to promote use of the Runescape Official Forums (RSOF) in general, as the official and exciting source of Runescape information.

While I laud how Jagex has done a great job of using social media--Twitter, Reddit, etc, because doing so increases exposure, unfortunately it's done at the expense of the forums, which is being neglected in terms of how much care and attention it actually deserves.

Increased forum visibility > Increased usage > A better forum support system, and higher pressure to care about facilitating ease-of-use. The forums got restructured a few years ago because there were too many threads, since the RSOF wasn't adequate for the forum activity back then.

Increasing forum usage can be easily promoted with jmod and better fmod activity; there *is* a reason why these jmod events attract so many people.

Even though I really want to see more involvement on behalf of jmods on the RSOF, so that our suggestions and feedback aren't in vain, I agree that this subforum could be benefited if it were organized in a way that made it easier to navigate.

Amazing event with a great turn out :) Love the lodestone teleport and the Goebie trickery :P

Could it be considered to host weekly KK masses, as they have had such a high turn out rate so far?

Also Vorago/Nex/Raids events are always fun, if we could do some more PVM in the future it would be amazing :D

We haven't had a Raids event yet - Could we potentially have one included in the next few weeks (Both Yaka + Beastmaster)?

I just wanted to say thanks for the KK event it was really good, only improvement I can think of would be for shauny to l2voke :P

Kidding, great event as always.. Just waiting for Castle wars again might actually motivate me to get the halo I want or at least a step towards trimmed comp (never going to happen) ;)

I haven't actually participated in the KK event yesterday but i'd like to leave some feedback:
The JMod lodestone was placed just outside of the agility shortcut, which is fine but if you haven't done (a quest or something?) you cannot enter that shortcut, this means you have to walk all the way around which actually takes quite a bit of time.
When i asked why it was there you said due to limitations it couldn't be placed closer to the entrance. So what i would like to suggest is to ask the people responsible for where you can/cannot place the jmod lodestones to change it so it can be placed closer to the KK cave (if it's possible at all).

As i left the fc to make room for others to join i can't be sure about this one but when you started the event we could only join in on your instance, since there were quite a lot of people KK just melted, i would suggest: get a few more people (possibly ranks within the fc) to host with you, so people got a chance to actually do some KK instead of clicking and it dieing after 3 seconds.


As to events what i would like to see more in the future:
- Cwars (love this, great for people that might go for trimmed comp like myself)
- Hide 'n seek
- Fist of guthix
- Pest control HTML
