It's to commemorate the one year anniversary of Mobile. I do agree though, I'd have loved an app icon with the RS rune stones within a pumpkin or something :(

Hello!
We'll be live on twitch.tv/oldschoolrs on WEDNESDAY 30th October. We'll be live from 5pm GMT (double-check your timezones, since the clocks went back in the UK!)
I'll be your host. What questions would you like me to ask (and - hopefully - answer)?
Apologies for cancelling last week's Q&A. I'll be bringing some of those questions asked to this week's Q&A.
External link →Firstly, thank you for responding. I’m glad I’ve broken through!
I already have but I fear it’s absolutely pointless as I’m just going to receive an automated response. I’ve spent hundreds of hours and £ on this game over the years and I have a right to know exactly what I’ve been accused of doing with an actual human looking into the problem.
Can you guarantee this will be dealt with fairly? Can you guarantee I will receive a detailed report of exactly what my character has supposedly done? Can you guarantee that this won’t simply be dealt with by a bot? Are Jagex mods capable of admitting mistakes? Or will selecting the mistake option chuck my appeal in the bin? Can I speak to someone over the phone to resolve this like at any other mmorpg? Can I receive more than copy and paste TOS?
Again I’ve been playing for years including pre-OSRS. I feel that as players and customers, we all have a right to have these questions answered.
Can you guarantee this will be dealt with fairly?: Yes
Can you guarantee I will receive a detailed report of exactly what my character has supposedly done?: No, we don't supply this information
Can you guarantee that this won’t simply be dealt with by a bot? Yes, it will be looked into by a Jagex Mod
Are Jagex mods capable of admitting mistakes? Yes, that's why we have a thorough review process for our bans
Can I speak to someone over the phone to resolve this like at any other mmorpg? We don't currently offer phone support but that won't be necessary to conduct a review of a macro ban
Can I receive more than copy and paste TOS? You'll receive an email and inbox message that explains the decision and the reasoning for that decision
Never seen it this low at this time 🤷♂️ Also have seen screen shots of someone getting banned today with the ban being called bot busting.
We apply lots of these each day
Does the event end on the last day of October or how do these usually work
We usually leave it open a little while after. It's looking likely to close on the 7th.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I will 100% be doing a farm run on the 2nd of November in memory of your mother.
Question for anybody. What do you report the YouTube phishers under? the guys that login to the GE and say
"Massive giveaway over on NobHeadedTwat's YouTube channel, just search TwatFace to enter!"
I usually report them under Advertising Websites but what if that's useless since YouTube isn't against the rules and so the phisher bots get let off?
Report them for advertising websites please. Although they are using an auto typer, a Web advertising report would be more helpful for us :)
this is fantastic
I feel like this update was really elegantly done and Mod Flippy deserves a shout out for making it happen. The event was super short and with a guide almost trivial, so those who just wanted the reward and didn't want to participate could spam the space bar and be done in minutes, and to those of us who wanted to really enjoy the event the dialogue was absolutely gold. The concept was funny and well executed and it was exactly the 10 minute break from barb fishing I wanted yesterday.
The cutscene was also hilarious, the outfit fits the event, it was just the right amount of satire, and the additional easter egg to make the costume 'spookier' is brilliant.
Really, really well done Mod Flippy.
First off, wow. Massive thank you, it makes me really happy the update was received well.
Secondly, this update came from the whole Old School team. I did the design and developed the update, but there's so much more that goes into an update like this.
West made amazing rewards and Gee made the super cute Goblins. Whole team (even mods outside OSRS) helped me playtest and gave me crucial, very necessary feedback. Curse fixed many nasty bugs and spelling mistakes and Ash and Roq helped me hotfix bugs that went into live. Additionally, Kieren, Ed, Lenny and Husky helped me out with the training I needed to do it in the first place.
The reason I'm saying this is because we all try to give you these type of updates, to make you guys happy. I'm incredibly proud we managed to meet that goal with this one, so really: Thank you, again.
Enjoy your weekend gamers, and remember to do your farm runs.
A bit confused it had me state the reason why enter my email etc, but it didnt have me enter any account details.
^ You would have signed into the account as part of the appeal process :)
How come ironmen can't buy a rune pouch with GP from slayer masters? We can only get them from slayer points?
We thought that would be too big a change for the game mode.
I was hoping he’d say “lol sit” after he stabbed the second. Unfortunately I was disappointed
Fun fact: His original line was ”Sit kid” which later on got revamped to ”Lmao” and lastly ”Lol”.
We can see very clearly when an account is an alt, there's no need to worry if you're not doing anything nefarious
I got my account back today too. I'm pretty sure it was a false positive since I played at least a couple hours every day before the ban and didn't notice anything unusual. They gave a generic response of unusual activity and didn't refund me any days of lost membership, but at least I got my account back. ¯\(ツ)/¯
It's often the case that an account is compromised without the owner knowing it, and is used to gold farm on the opposite game that's being played by the owner such as yourself. This may have been what happened with you, can't tell for sure without knowing what account it was, though.
why doesnt epic mager34 just log off and make a new account
He's new, give him a break.
That's very kind of you, and thank you for playing! Honestly I'm just overwhelmed with all the nice and happy comments. It makes me extra motivated and I'm so proud to be making content for you guys.
Happy you liked the event, see you around!
Edit: Wow, as a noob dev this means the world. Thanks.
I can’t wait to do it after I get outta class, looks so awesome from what people have shown.
I’m pumped for your next project! Anything to tease us with or what you’re moving onto next?
Hope you have fun! Working on Leagues now and Morytania afterwards I think.
