Old School Runescape Dev Tracker

We can't prevent people making YouTube videos, nor can we stop them being posted. Elsewhere in the thread somebody mentioned the possibility of tackling specific Discord servers, and it's a similar situation. We can't control other third-partys, but we can engage. We are making some headway in our ability to try to shutdown private servers and similar websites. Part of the alignment on game rules I mentioned in the OP should cover things like "What can/should we do against official OSRS accounts for breaking game rules outside of our services?".

Part of the alignment I mentioned in the OP is centered on what can we do to tackle these servers. Discord is a third-party service that we cannot control, we are going to engage with Discord to see what might be done.

Sure, I can do that now. The server you're seeing screenshots of are dedicated to things like showing optimum Gear and account loadouts for specific activities like killing bosses. That's a really handy community to be a part of. At a time after J-Mods joined, it seems like the server began to direct players to other servers, which the J-Mods aren't in, and which are dedicated to things like selling of account services.

Hey all. I want to be clear that this subject is being discussed internally, and it isn't being ignored. I know there's rightfully a call for clarity and a move away from any ambiguity, and that's something we want to provide as soon as we can. We still need a lot more alignment internally to ensure that any messaging, statement, and clarification of game rules has the answers, detail of action, and the explanations of why  - generally the level of transparency you're looking for.

I'm well aware of the irony that I'm talking about ending ambiguity and then I'm posting this ambiguous message. I know a lot of you want sweeping clarity on "x is against the rules, and the punishment is y", but the honest answer is that this is exactly what we're trying to realign on. The end result should be more clarity not just on this, but on enforcement of other game rules too.

Dumb take.

The only reason I responded is because it blew up accusing me of something which I haven't done and how the community views me is quite important to me as I want to be able to engage with you to receive feedback on updates I'm working on.

I have never paid for someone to do anything on my account. I quite honestly don't see the point. This game is about setting yourself goals and achieving them, if someone else achieved the goal then it'd be meaningless to me.

If I had a 200m all account with all pets, every item in-game I'd likely just play another account because without goals there's nothing to play for.

Hey, not sure why I'm being singled out like this. I'm already maxed so I've no reason to have someone level my account and I don't see why I'd pay someone to do the few goals I have left for me, I enjoy this game too much.

I never responded to OP when tagged in something like this previously because It's not my place to comment on matters like this as I am a content developer and not player support. I'm sorry I can't clarify more about this but the osrs team have seen this post and are discussing it internally.

Nope! But they do exist :)

Wow, I'm surprised it took you guys so long to find that! Credit to u/JagexFlippy for doing that one

You think I made these just for fun?!!?

n-no... sorry...

Not directly but it is Mandalorian. Republic Commando is great but the Karen Traviss Republic Commando novels are even better (though we don't talk about Imperial Commando)

Preparing the structure and format for the Leagues blog! No spoilers!

That's a stance that's hard to miss! Makes me think of some of the great work u/jagexcookie has been doing.

That raw power radiating off that pose tho...

I've added this as feedback to be changed next game update as it's not something we can hotfix. Thanks for letting us know!

As far as I'm aware, and looking at emails while I was gone, it is something that was brought up internally during my holiday and is currently being discussed. As far as any actions coming out of it any time soon, I can't guarantee that. While something sounds simple in a post to implement, the team wants to look at it as a whole on what it can affect, who it affects, and weighing out the pros and cons. I am happy to update the players with the overall team's decision when there is one to communicate but unfortunately that is all I have right now. Sorry that it might not be the most helpful response but I can assure you that the topic is being discussed!
