Hey all, understandably there are a lot of questions being raised following the news and some of you would like further clarity to be provided for certain situations. We'll aim to cover as much as possible in this week's Q&A on Thursday at 5pm GMT :)

I figured I would've been like no, I want it near the OG Abyssal Lever Random event!

... I now need to go and find where that is. Hm.

Not at all, really. :D There's always space!

Do you guys fight who gets to put stuff where? Like kids arguing for a seat next to the their friend? Maybe you think some old ransome event is cool and you want your new thing there?

Edit: are to fight

We are do, indeed, the guys who gets to put stuff where. ;)

As developers, we get to decide where things go on our map. There's a couple of throwbacks I've seen throughout the years, though mostly we just find space on the map to put new content wherever it fits!

About how many things did you find that are interesting?

One hundred and eighty seven.

If I remember correctly, all the dungeons and other non-surface areas are actually situated in the black void north of the main world map. They're supposed to be out of view from each other, but with the extended draw distance on RuneLite you can sometimes see adjacent areas.

Probably one of the coolest things I've enjoyed during my first few months at Jagex was teleporting around the black void, finding all the various maps up there.

There's some interesting stuff.

The appeal was denied though, so if OP didn't post this to Reddit then the mute would've never have been undone? What about people who don't post to reddit when stuff like this happens? Do they just have to wait out the 25 hour mute?

Saying that someone doesn't have to hit the front page to get their support concern answered isn't reassuring at all when you still have to post to reddit in the first place. It still shows that even after years of Jagex acknowledging the problems with their support system it's still a trainwreck.

I wasn't trying to offer reassurance that it's a good situation to be in, just responding to the fact that posts don't need to hit the front page to be noticed which is what the OP I replied to was suggesting.

If this post wasn't made then yes, if the appeal was denied at the time they'd likely have to wait out their mute. Thankfully I'm told its not that common though, and with feedback being given (as Steve mentioned) it'll hopefully not happen again.

Lately I’ve been listening to:

Rap - Lil Uzi Vert, Juice Wrld,

Metal - (been listening to a lot of metalcore as of late but my favorite band is Avenged Sevenfold) Bring Me The Horizon, Asking Alexandria, As I Lay Dying

I’ve been listening to a lot of Buckethead’s music recently also.

Your taste sounds a lot like my own funnily enough. Was looking through some old pictures and ended up listening to Stampin' Ground's Carved from Empty Words album again.

Been listening to Nectar by Joji on repeat for months now. Great album.

Just flicking through and that album has a bit of everything, but they all seem to fit so well. Will give it a proper listen later on, very much my thing.

El Chombo - Chacarron is probably the one track I have on at all times when I play RS. Keeps the spirit up

I've not thought about that song in ages!

I don't often listen to music, but when I do its usually (symphonic) metal. Nightwish being my favorite band.

Does that answer your question? It sounds like you're more after a different type of music.

I had a pretty hefty Power Metal phase back in the day. if you like Nightwish and fancy a lotta stuff about Kings & Queens then give Sonata Arctica a try

the answer is probably not

Contrary to popular belief, posts don't need to hit the front page of the subreddit to be noticed. This was picked up quite early into being posted - Sween actually posted it in our internal chat channels around midnight UK time. At that time there are few people in the office so unless it's critical, things usually get picked up in the morning when there are more resources to investigate further.

We don't always reply to the threads, but we see them and pass on what we can :)

Gearbox, although 'transmission' can be used it isn't common, and to then shorten it is even more unusual.

Hands up we got that wrong, the phrase you used isn't one in common use in the UK but that is no excuse, clearly you were having an innocent conversation. I've let the staff involved in this know about the error so they can be mindful in future.

I can see your account was incorrectly muted for 25 hours, I've quashed that mute and bolted 3 days of free membership to your account in recognition of the inconvenience caused.
