Alright, Annie. I fixed my post as well.

You may get a status effect in the future, but I'm going to make sure that the roleplayers know they can get a status effect from encounters. That's part of the reason the status effect was removed. The other reason was fairness. We haven't fought these flowers in a couple of years, so it feels completely bullshit for me to expect you to remember that you can get poisoned by these flowers. Am I supposed to expect rpers to go back to page whatever and to figure out they can get poisoned by these flowers? That's unfair, and nobody has any time for that. =)

Enemies that can give status effects will be denoted as such from here on out in the very top of the post. While it is meta for your character to be able to know such effects. It's the best way of doing this. A character can suffer from poisoning to a disease, to a hex of horribly bad luck, but it will always be denoted at the top of the post. =)
Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

In other news, I have been playing some good ol' modded Skyrim. I have been playing a Redguard assassin for some time. I figured that since I never play a Redguard character, I might as well do a Redguard assassin. I don't usually do Redguards because I dislike warrior classes. I find them boring. Although I do fancy smashing people with warhammers in that game, so when I do warriors, it is almost always a two handed character. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

FYI, y'all might want to look at the RS News section. They've just announced they are going to retire the forums.

Y'all might want to look into moving any stories and roleplaying stuff you have to other sites/etc

An Update Regarding Our Forums

Hello 'Scapers,

When RuneScape first launched, it was clear that our players would need a separate location to discuss and socialise outside of the game. At the time, it was much more common practice for online communities to gather in forums – and so the official RuneScape Forums were born!

Since then, however, usage has declined to the point where most players now prefer to use external platforms like Discord, Reddit and Twitter (‘X’) to connect with us and their fellow players. With that in mind, we've decided to refocus towards being actively present where our players prefer to be, and allocating more of our resources accordingly.

Consequently, we will be taking our forums offline - initially transitioning them to be read-only from January 25th, and then removing them entirely on March 28th.
Why the decision to retire the Forums?

Right now our forums represent a very small fraction of the discussions happening in the RuneScape community. While we acknowledge their historical significance, their current functionality falls short compared to what external platforms can provide.

It's evident that vital conversations and community voices often get lost, whereas external platforms offer enhanced functionality, including livestreaming 'Stages,' voice chat channels, and more convenient shortcuts to the topics that are most relevant to you.

Given the strong preference for other platforms among our players, we've therefore decided to channel more of our staff time and resources into those platforms for improved engagement.

Naturally, we're eager to help communities find new homes for Clan Recruitment and similar ways to connect – we've already helped our respective Discord servers prepare so that Clans can continue to enjoy the same functionality as before, but with a more direct and timely method of connecting with our JMods and other players.
