Java is a programming language! Its not a piece of software or anything! And the idea is that Runescape is on the internet, not something you download, or buy off the shelf. It is like this so you can get on it anywhere at anytime, not just computers that have it installed. This also protects against "hackers". If they the all the Runescape files on their computer, they could edit them and make them do wat they want. In all, RS being on the net is a good thing, so be grateful! And btw, make sure you do some research so you know what you are posting about ~Jagger P.S. Lots of big companies have taken interest in buying it, but Jagex dont wanna sell it
