Hi everyone!
We've recently rolled out some under-the-hood changes to user flairs in /r/runescape. We would like to take this opportunity to talk about this feature.
What is user flair?
User flair is what we call those little colourful tags and icons which display next to usernames in the subreddit. This works similarly to in-game titles, and gives you the opportunity to personalise the space next to your username.
How do I get flair?
To set a user flair, look in the "About Community" box in top-right of the /r/runescape sidebar. You can choose your flair there under COMMUNITY OPTIONS.
In Reddit App, you can set your user flair by navigating to /r/runescape and tapping on the 3 vertical dots in top-right of the page, and selecting "Change user flair".
For old Reddit users, flair can be changed in the upper part of the subreddit sidebar, below subscriber count.
What flair is available?
Our subreddit offers a wide variety of user flair, including every skill symbol, major gods, activities, capes of distinction, and other assorted icons.
With this update, we've added some new symbols. The following flairs are now enabled: RS Mobile, Clue scroll, Triskelion, Tetracompass, Bond, Aura, PvP skull, Seren spirit, RuneScore, Final Boss, Insane Final Boss, and Master Quest Cape.
What is limited flair?
We currently offer three limited user flairs:
- Trimmed Completionist
- Master Quest Cape
- Insane Final Boss
These are given out on a request basis. To ask for a limited flair, contact us and include a full in-game screenshot of you saying your Reddit username, with the respective cape/title equipped. You can also ask in this thread for the duration of this sticky; same rules apply.
Remember you can only have one flair enabled/assigned at a time. Limited flair cannot be modified by the user. The text of a limited flair can be changed only through the discontinued flair thread.
Trivia
We have some interesting and perhaps surprising flair facts for you:
As of yesterday, a total of 44,218 users have enabled a flair in /r/runescape. We currently support 225 distinct user flair classes.
The three most commonly used flairs are: Max Cape (3208 users), Comp Cape (2756 users), and Skill Total (1949 users). The rarest flair is owned by just one person... none other than /u/prezleek!
Judging by user flair, the three most popular RuneScape gods are Zaros, Guthix, and Armadyl. The most popular skills are Slayer, Attack, and Magic.... with Woodcutting as close fourth.
232 users have requested the Trimmed Completionist flair.
Over the years we welcomed and flaired 178 J-Mods in the subreddit.
Thank You
We encourage you to make use of the flair feature. If you have any questions, requests or suggestions, leave a comment.
