When Mod Ed went through the puzzle in a meeting and said "one of you will need to be the guinea pig to test it out and see how long it takes to complete" everyone immediately had that look on their face.

You will go far, I wish you the best of luck. If we make memes around something you say don’t take it personally as an attack that’s uhh just what we do here

I've been on that side of the river. I'm cool with memes!

Welcome! Glad to see a new face or name rather in this case. Whats your role in the team? Are you gonna introduce yourself on the q&a?

Thanks! Glad to be here too. I don't think I'll be introduced in any stream, as I'm not directly in any OSRS team (and there's not much need for it either) - I'm part of the Tech Services that build features that all our games/services use (web stuff, mostly, that support our sites/forums/games).

For real though, can you clean up the state of account security while you're there? :/

Since I'm very - very - new here, I don't have any significant input to give you on that, and I'd rather not comment and potentially say something that is wrong.

Not many yet! On Reddit, just one!

Yes, that does explain why there's suddenly a new name.

Happy to help!

No... No... You clean now.

Hah! Finally someone hints at it. Took less time than I thought!

Not sure if it Jagex internally classifies it as a department, but I meant the the Old School team. They host the OSRS Q&A stream and usually new staff members to that team do an introduction.

Ah! While there are super organised departments, I'm in the Tech Services, so I'm not directly tied into any of our games/services, but instead I develop features that those games/services rely on. Does that clear it up? (This might mean I won't get introduced in stream)

Comment

These are my new favourite things. I full on cackled in the middle of the team with this one.

A reply from a person working at Jagex? Now, I really feel welcome.

That was my intention, glad it worked! Now go you, and have fun killin' 'em cows!

Good to hear. :)

I assume that we get your official introduction on the next Q&A stream then, correct? Or are you from another department?

Not sure actually. What department was the assumption?

Are you a new JMod? I don't think I've seen that name before and your Reddit account is new. But you do have the JMod Flair..

Hey. You gotcha, new account, new mod, yes - excited to engage with y'all.

Comment

Hi /u/zVeesha and welcome to OSRS! I kinda envy you - there's yet so much for you to discover in-game!

Other users have answered your questions, but I want to add that if you go to our website you can see how many players are online at that exact moment, a feature I've always loved since way back in '05 when I started.

  2. English
  3. Yes, see #1
  4. Both Windows 10 and Mac OS
  5. English
  6. No

Darn (because that includes our testing platforms/environments). Can you replicate it every time? Did my solutions above fix it temporarily or permanently?

Hey, I tried messing with stuff again and I wasn't able to replicate the problem either. I'll let you know if it comes up again

Well great then! Sad, because we missed out on potentially more data to fix it, but great!
