  • hahaha it’s gotten called “already dawn” or “after dawn” a lot because they shifted it from cool lighting (that looks like the middle of the night lit by moonlight) to warm lighting (that looks like evening or morning light) so I thought “night and day” was a nod to that. the graphical fidelity is a lot better, but it wasn’t even bad in the original and the mood shift caused by the lighting change seems very unbefitting of the story and it also seems like they’ve cut idle animations? which is an insane choice the characters seem so dull and lifeless without them





  • example 1 is from a year ago, 2 is new so it may still be a thing but likely something they’ve already dealt with and 3 is from “someone close to CVC” how on earth are you gonna take that as fact?

    from mod ayiza’s response to that 3rd one:

    "To give some context in the form of data, here are some ban stats:

    Last year we banned over 6.9 million accounts.

    So far in 2024, each week on average, we ban over 2,300 RuneScape accounts.

    So far in 2024, each week on average, we ban over 67,000 Old School RuneScape accounts.

    Of these accounts, 2,800 are for botting popular boss-related content.

    Each week, around 1.5T GP is removed from the RuneScape economy.

    Each week, around 900B GP is removed from the Old School RuneScape economy. "

    they’re playing wack-a-mole because there’s no possible way to preemptively ban bots, but they’ve done a good job of it and will continue to.











  • “The term was coined in 1973 by American writer Norman Mailer to mean a piece of information that becomes accepted as a fact even though it is not actually true, or an invented fact believed to be true because it appears in print. Since the term’s invention in 1973, it has become used to describe a brief or trivial item of news or information.”

    from Wikipedia, so I suppose the meaning of the word has shifted from its original meaning and my claiming otherwise was a Classic Factoid™️, if you will.
