"... or get Ancient Curses by viewing the requirements for Desert Treasure."
I think you either mean ancient magicks or Temple at Senntisten 👀

As communication is a hot topic at the moment, I want to give you advance notice of a tech debt project I developed for a few days while working over Christmas, which if all goes to plan should release alongside the Valentines game update in mid February.
As you may have heard, we shifted over to a new engine-cached achievement format last year. The achievement interface displays nearly 3,000 achievements and some of their conditions are very programmatically complex, as RuneScape is a strange beast.
We'd basically reached the point where the volume of complex achievement data the achievement system needed to process was hitting the limits of our scripting language, so we needed to recreate all that data in a format the game engine interprets, to be able to continue adding achievements.
Over time we intend to gradually phase out dependencies on the old achievement system, so we can retire it. And consequently be able to improve its interface.
The old...

Not at all. This is what we're paid to do within Community Management. No two days are ever the same, and that's what makes it exciting!
It is always interesting to see how people see time differently.
Some players get worried that something is pushing a mod they like away or wonder why someone would leave, but 7 years is a long time.
Hope your exciting new opportunities work out.
Appreciate it - thank you for the wellwishes.
Good luck in your new endeavors!!!
Thank you!
Aw man, gonna miss JD, especially as stream host.
Nevertheless, looking forward to a proper send-off with this Big Fat RuneScape Quiz. I wonder if JD will channel his inner Jimmy Carr for the occasion?
All the best to you, JD. May your future be bright, and your servers un-crashed.
Thank you. Very much enjoyed hosting the streams more in recent months, and hope you guys enjoyed them.
Haha I'll try my best. There will definitely be less terrible laughs than Mr Carr (and hopefully the internet will survive this time).
Because they don't skip leg day.
Er the m+s rework had major issues on release and still had issues years later and do you remember that time he did a full comp rework? Owait no it didn't happen. nty.
Love you too, man.
Good luck and thank you!
Much thanks!
can't believe this, JD you were fantastic and will be missed loads
Thank you :)
Holy damn.. @JagexJD, thanks for everything you’ve done both on community and personal level, sad to see you go!
Thank you. Going to miss you guys!
Awww, gonna miss him! Good luck with your future going-ons, best of luck :) I'm glad we got that amazing picture of you last week when your camera froze before you left!
Also, everyone tune in to the quiz tomorrow!
You have no idea how happy I was when that meme happened - particularly as I knew I was leaving at that stage! Thank you.
This really sucks. Seriously wondering if yesterday's events pushed him over the edge?
Tinfoil hat time: absolutely not. I have a much longer notice period - although obviously what is my last Monday game update came with its challenges!
Could you make a newspost about what you're intending to do? I think that's the biggest thing you should take from the feedback this morning.
Make a newspost. Ahead of time.
We will be getting info onto the site for sure - we're confirming what we can do and timelines by which we can do them as soon as possible.
The idea that "the conversion ratio [] is unfortunately something we are unable to retroactively change" is utter horseshit. You have backups (or you're even more incompetent than we all think you are), pull the values from a backup and credit people's accounts an amount of oddments that isn't outright theft, and doesn't have a cap.
If it was possible, it would be the solution we'd take right now - it's clear we got the conversion ratio very wrong and this would be the best way to address that.
For this issue, it's unfortunately not feasible from a technical perspective.
Could we maybe have updates on the main page and not have to search social media for it all? No telling how much ive missed cause i refuse to make a twitter, reddit is too much social media for me as it is
We've been providing our updates in the News Post so far this week. We're going to try that as a way of keeping any post-Update updates together and see how it goes.
u/Jagexhooli can we get an explanation? Why can we still access the item you guys claim is so useless you decide to erase from the game with zero communication.
The team are looking into this, as well as how to resolve any new RITs in your inventory after this happened.
While they aren't present in the current promotion, it appears they were still available for a day until this promo expired which is where this error has happened. Thanks for alerting us to it.
Hey while you're at it can you just fix the asinine stuff you did with rare item tokens? I spend money on keys and selected those tokens every time I was given the choice and lost 20k tokens. Thanks!
It's not my area to get involved sadly, but I won't let reddit fallout preventing me from engaging with areas of the game and development that are my area
