obfuscator Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Where did all the dead threads go? Just buried under the weight of other OT threads? they're still ordered by last post date so most of them are buried "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaida23 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 So far only the threads that were actually being used have been folded into the main OT section. The old subsections and threads are still there, just hidden from public view while we discuss which others to keep. With one or two exceptions no one has posted in any of remaining threads in over 3 years though, so it's unlikely any of them will be missed. Once we're done, Randox will then send what remains off to the land of wind and ghosts that only admins know about. Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

Saradomin_Mage Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 can you go into the land of wind and ghosts and bring back the arenascape guide pls? In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT has plenty of historical threads itself (from 2005)...and it's not like it would hurt anything.

Randox Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 He's talking about the stickies, which include things like the rules for the Sports Subforum, which really doesn't need to be moved. Some of the other pinned threads are more relevant, but are essentially unused. Perhaps for the sake of historical interest I'll simply unpin them and move them over as well, so that people can still look them up, or revive them. can you go into the land of wind and ghosts and bring back the arenascape guide pls?Like the new player and advanced player guides, or something else? If you just want the body of the main posts, unless you were hoping to see the entire threads, in which case I'm sure I can find someplace to plop them down where others can see them.

The main body would be great, should be the one with the explanation of the rank system and the different titles you can unlock In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

I would love to have those guides back as well. I still avidly play ArenaScape and I'm a bit sad that the old links no longer work and I can't find information about the game :(.

Randox Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I'm not sure I found what you were looking for. In particular, I don't see anything in the old ArenaScape discussions board that pertains to the rank system. I moved the only two threads I could find that pertain to the game rules into Forum Games as locked stickies. If you guys have links to any of the threads that you are looking for that no longer work, send them my way. If the threads still exist on the forums, those links will work for me.

RpgGamer Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I was hoping the prune would extend to the whole site. I think you can condense this whole forum down to 4 different sections RunescapeOff topicWebsite/FeedbackRandom (forum games and other non fitting topics go here)Yeah but it was only OT voting, it wouldn't be fair to change the whole skeleton of the site based on 19 regulars from OT. I was mostly concerned with being able to necro old threads for fun. Because who doesn't love a thread revival from half a decade ago every once in a while?
