Hey Westenev, how's it going? And how's the thread planning coming along?
Back to the drawing board. Guthix got to the whole rpg thing first.
I would have liked to have seen a story where people could log out and did have actual lives/subplots outside of the game (reference Yurika or later SAO 2 and beyond) - but I'm not sure if that would go over too well. Everyone loves to be snowflakes, and having everyone "know each other" through friends, family or school might be too much of a restriction for some people.
If I were feeling particularly inspired, maybe it could be a Runescape 5.0. EOC would definitely need a major overhaul before that could ever happen though.
The story itself would probably revolve around in-game irl murder. Cause, Lets face it, that's a staple of the genre.
Still. This is all hypothetical. I'll throw it into the maybe later basket.
EDIT: Where's my manners.
Welcome back.
EDIT 2: I wonder if virtual reality could make the wilderness interesting. Put in some scary pve, bounty hunting, in-game criminals and you might get some full on pvp action - all on top of an arid wasteland that stretches on for days. I think it could be an exciting place to be.
Well, more exciting that it is at the moment. STANDING 5 FEET FROM THE WILDY BORDER IS NOT PVP.

...We're in the very early stages of a project to make more parts of the website responsive so that they work much better on small screen devices... As part of this we are reviewing everything on the site, including the fonts. To make things much easier for us in development, we will be making some changes that also affect the older style web pages.
However in doing this yesterday it looks like we uncovered some problems with the way we encode fonts before publishing them to the site. This affected the main body font on the website, and this same font is also used on the list of forums and the list of threads.
This was not intentional and it will be reverted very soon
. Sorry if it has made things more difficult to read.
