External link →From my experience, the most popular place that players got 'familiar' with each other was upstairs of Zaff's Superior Staff's Shop. Many times if you followed them up there they'd keep telling you to leave them alone lol.
Didn’t expect a jmod response on this one
I have no life
Thank you for this information
Haha you’re welcome. This isn’t like official information or anything, it is just from my experience growing up in the game!
It's official enough for me. Can we get a wiki page for this already? It's classified as game history and should permanently be documented.
If we even wanted to attempt to verify this as true we would need all e-daters to come forward and expose themselves. I don’t know if this would be possible, either out of shame or out of breaking that “no dating” rule memes.
If the data exists for the most stood on square. There could be a chance the data from that generation in rs3 is still on record. We could actually get an answer for which building people used, well assumptions anyway.
This sounds like a cross team effort.
I could make a request to our data team but it wouldn’t be considered high priority. I also am trying to think of how I would pitch a request for this without sounding insane!
I’m sure we could get the osrs wiki admins on board and make a osrs history month as a birthday thing, that way it isn’t too weird.
Slide it in with a bunch of other odd and quirky stats.
Like what was used more, varrock West Bank or falador park for trading.
That is actually galaxy brain level. I will see what I can do
You know this how? Did you hang out at Varrock Square f2p worlds with the rich players?
I used to hang out just in front of varrock castle by the fountain. Lots of couples would dance there (follow each other). But there was always a point where one would stop the dance and then lead the other one upstairs to Zaffs shop lol to get some “privacy” haha. Pretty sus
Yeah I remember those days too. We must have hanged out a couple of times since it was a small crowd. I remember meeting this artsy player who dreamed of working with Jagex. If that was you, then congratulations!
I had this friend who would be like. “Let’s go bother them and get them mad.” So dumb looking back.
That wasn’t me I promise!!
But thank you so much!
Oh, I get it. The staff is supposed to be a dick.
Nooo haha I don’t even think it was that deep (no pun intended lmao). It was just the closest place to where people gathered with an upstairs area I think? 😂
What was it like growing up in RuneScape?
It was pretty awesome. Nobody really had the time to play extensively because everyone was still in classes. I remember racing home just to get on and play :) Also there weren’t as many guides and such so everyone was pretty inefficient. I remember buying a guide to make GP off of some website and I printed out every page of it and had it next to me while I played. Very magical time for sure!
Your comment I replied to made it sound like you grew up within the game so I was making a dumb joke. I do appreciate the wholesome response! :)
I appreciate the conversation! :3
This has given me an idea. I know Jagex took on ChrisArchie, so could we get like a weekly or monthly 3-5min video compilation of some facts or 'top plays'?
For reference, War Thunders Gaijin entertainment has a weekly 10min video on youtube, which is all just user submitted replays with Gaijins commentary on it. There is also a sister show uploaded on the same channel that discusses certain vehicles, manufacturer's etc. This one is presented a bit like a mini history documentary while also including reference to the game.
For this maybe something like 'The history of (Varrock/Lumbridge/GodWars Dungeon etc)' where you discuss game lore as well as player historical events? Feedback on these videos is often positive, and for sure personally I boot up the game when one comes out.
Thank you if you read all of this!
I love reading suggestions like this! I can’t say yes or no to it, but I can bring it up when we have ideation sessions (usually monthly) and see what the rest of the team think! Thank you!
