I come here today with a message to you all and would like to say some words regarding this forum. As the creator of this thread, I, Joe P (formerly Joe Schmo), would like to say thank you to those who have posted and contributed to keeping this alive for so long! I can honestly say I never thought my forum game would gain traction as much as it did, nor did I think it would even reach to V23! It has definitely been an eventful 10 years.
When I started playing RS back in 2009, I didn't stumble upon the forums until 2013, and soon after found enjoyment in being apart of this tight knit community. I'll always appreciate the forums for the way it allowed people to connect and voice their opinions. After posting for just a few years, I had a definite hiatus as I began my college experience and therefore didn't have time to play the game anymore. However, I would periodically go here to check in and was delighted to have seen that more people were joining in. At times, I even noticed the game sitting on the first page right under the pinned threads, which was very humbling.
I want to give a special shoutout to
Iceberg
for being the one to take charge after my departure, and most especially to
Lynxlynx
for continuing to do so ever since! You guys did a great job and are part of the reason this forum game lasted a decade, along with everyone else too.
Unfortunately with the recent news made by Jagex, the forums as we know will be shut down in March, with this now being the last
Quickly, Before They See
thread
. It is quite the sad day, to see this inevitable decline thats been looming over, now leading to this moment. But, I'm grateful we got a good run out of these forums. Hope you guys had fun and wish nothing but the best. I am back playing RS every once and a while so you can still find me "around" in-game.
