Why can we not have an in game link to the runescape official forums?

It would make directing people to our clan threads so much easier. I am not just talking about existing clannies, but also potential recruits we meet in game and guests in our clan chat.

It could be located on the rim of the minimap, along with the other icons. One click and it opens the RSOF.

Having this feature would likely encourage people to start using the forums again. Its been my experience that many players do not even know they exist or how to access them. Or perhaps they have just simply forgotten about the forums. I failed to keep my New Year's resolution before I even made it.

I agree, it has always baffled me that they have links to all this other stuff in-game even to an offsite thing like Twitch . But yet when it comes to their own forums, it gets little recognition or links in-game. I do also realize that they do indirectly guide you to the forums but there are so many loops that not many will just go to the forums through them.

Would be nice to have a link, that when pressed will open a tab to the RSOF and logs you in to the website at the same time. Like when you're going to view your account's inbox via clicking the messages icon in the lobby.

For my clan I don't think there's anything they could do apart from giving bonus xp to use the forums, heck I don't even use it anymore. We have an off site facebook group that alot of the clan are a member of so we can post events, etc there.

The old client had that: http://puu.sh/lSNSv/d6b68de15e.jpg

If it doesn't take up unnecessary space (like it did in the old client), I would support it.

If there's space for an ugly subscribe button, there should be space for a useful forum button. Full support.

Full support it would save me hitting my head against a brick wall

saying to my clanmates

Clan notice board - thats at bottom of clan chat list, - clan thread giving links to clan forums

clan Directory (website and facebook )

its hard work explaining how to use .

but its how i tell everyone . that way you dont need to login to home page.

it would be good if clan notice board had a direct link to clan forums

it would mean i didn't have a clan meeting booked for jan 1st 2025. rofl id be a ghost by then.
