I have checked the website and I cannot see anything RS related - am I missing something?

Hearing players are able to grab them now under 'RuneScape'.

Just managed to grab one, not sure why it wasn't there earlier but thanks!

Glad to hear it, and keep up the great work.

/u/jagexacorn thoughts on this? I know Jagex is looking for things to improve new player retention rates, so posts like these are probably a priority?

I do like the idea. I'll send it over to the team that's looking into new player improvements. Thanks for the tag!

We hear that there are still codes available. We'll update when we have more.

Is it for all NHS workers or is there just a limited amount?

I've gone on the site and there's nothing Runescape related.

I've asked the person with access to the backend on how many codes were claimed and we still have over 400 of them. Let me know if refreshing it and looking for Jagex or RuneScape works for you.

When you ban the mules how far do you follow the money chain? Do you keep going ti you feel you found their main accounts?

I usually try and find the main where possible but obviously some gold farmers don't really have a 'main' so I'll just follow it to where all the items/gold are being stored (if I can)

Same here :/

I've just refreshed the page and it seems to be working for me. Mind giving it another go? :)

Meh?

The Games for NHS website is getting updated due to high amount of traffic but no worries Keymailer is on the case!

Thanks, I've banned the mule account that they were trading and will investigate how the bots made it past the trade restrictions :)

Best baking recipe? (Also hijacking for a second here)

I really love chocolate and caramel. I made some chocolate caramel cookie squares that were just amazing. It's not my recipe unfortunately but it's still really good! https://imgur.com/a/buXOQEU

Do you ever wish you could become a true acorn, not just a Jagex one?

Hmm probably not. I'm not sure how I'd be able to play Old School without arms.

What this does to a complete outsider is it gives a very real "feel" of the game. They get a feel for the architecture and modeling, and they can also see the fantasy game combat classes. They won't know that the guy with Jad pet is in BIS mage gear, but it's clear he's got some sick wizard robes and a dope red dog thing.

Yeah, they won't know what "clue scrolls" are or that the Bloodhound is, but it's compensated by the fact that putting on shades to deliver a punchline is badass.

I'm really glad you said this! The area, gear, pets and whole vibe we were trying to go for here is to connect with what people recognize in game, but also show some clear progression. Thanks for the appreciation!

100%, jumping in for some more DM insight, but a large proportion of what we do in the Digital team is try to come up with ways that resonate with people who have played the game in the past, and might be interested in coming back.

OSRS has some major nostalgia vibes and our creative team hit it right on the mark this time!

Nope, we normally do that for announcement style posts because it looks cleaner and focuses attention on the announcement rather than the signature. Similar to this one just a few days ago: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/100k-for-mental-health-how-to-get-involved?oldschool=1
