Makes sense, but it still doesn't change my mind about how many whiny people and kids there are.

:lol: Well, not all threads are like that :)

I think you're exaggerating a lot :lol: Most threads are fine.

I'm not ranting, I'm just trying to figure out why people hate the RS forums so much.

I noticed that a lot of people have a grudge against the RuneScape Official Forums, saying that they're all kids and whiners. That's just not true :| I have used the RSOF alot and the vast majority are not kids, nor are they whiners. I think it's just a few idiots making posts every time they are in a ranty mood. As for the people on the forums being immature, that's not true for the vast majority either. If you took a random selection of threads, I doubt that you would get many kids or whiners. Opinions? :

Not long after atleast ;)

Yea, good point, it could be a road through a forest :thumbsup:

Too big to be a rune.... but if you can actually see markings it could be a RC altar.

Monster Hunt, train a skill with a friend, play a minigame that you like or haven't tried before, do quests (GAWD, what are you doing here if you don't have a quest cape?? :shock: ), go PKing, do duel tournaments, the list goes on and on.... seriously, if you have gotten bored of all these things it might be time to quit.

Well, it's kinda cool seeing a picture of a fabled stone with enourmous magical powers, don't you think?

Dang, I got so excited when you said that -.- Oh well, I don't really know what to think anymore.

true true very true. Thou fact the fist dips down and the stone is round more likely fist is somewhere the stone has been hit down or dropped. But equally all we know the stone and the fist are the same thing Can't remember where I heard it (somewhere on tif, cba to find the quote), but supposedly FoG is the site of a Saradominist camp that had the Stone of Jas in its possession during the Godwars (which in turn, was supposedly for control of this powerful relic). After Guthix stopped the war, he tried and failed to destroy the stone (but in the process he obliterated the camp). Instead, an imprint of the stone's power and some of Guthix's remained; which is the fist itself. If all of that is true then if anything the pattern of the FoG only serves to prove that the stone showed in the cutscene is, in fact, the Stone of Jas. Hmm, I've heard of this theory before, but this is the first time it contained a 'Saradomin camp'. Would make sense though... :-k ... Yes, that explains the numerous Saradomin symbols on the pillars in the Fog cave! I never really figured that one out... And yes, I think the Godwars (partly/mostly) revolved around the Stone of Jas, as the Oracle said: 'The god wars are over...as long as the thing they were fighting over remains hidden'. Some think the Oracle talks about the Godsword here, but I'm not sure... Can't the Saradominist Icyene just destroy it (and maybe secretly make another one)? No, I think the item they were fighting over was much more that a sword, even as powerful as this. You don't mobilise entire races and destroy continents for just one weapon. they fought over something bigger, more powerful. Something which had the power to create (and destroy...) the very elements of this world; magic, life, the Anima Mundi... Hey, maybe Lucien wants the Stone of Jas so that Zamorak can finish off Zaros once and for all! Zamorak lives in constant fear of Zaros, because he isn't gone for real, only banished. Even the mention of his name could give him enough power to break free and chase Zamorak the Betrayer to the end of the Cosmos. What great ideas a topic like this can give me :) . I salute you :o Thats pretty interesting. But can you explain what an "Icyene" is? I seem to remember that they have something with the Godsword to do, but I can't seem to remember what...

Well, Mod Mark H is a staff guy at Jagex, that's the only thing I can think of to do with RuneScape, this forum might as well just be called RuneScape General Discussion now. Umm.... it IS called "General Discussion" :)

It does look sort of like a globe :o But why would a huge globe be lying down in a cavern? :) I still think there is something more special about that stone.

Now I can see that you might interpret this as the Stone of Jas, but there are some things I don't get. Why does he call the Stone 'hornless'? And what are these 'setmates' he is referring to? I think (and with me many others, looking at the replies) that you read this, got an idea and now you present this idea as if it was undenieable truth, the only logical outcome. Let me tell you, it is not. This sentence right here sums it all up nicely: You don't have any proof it's the right colour, now do you? You don't have any proof at all it's the right shape, do you? You don't have any proof at all it has the right look, do you? Well? Do you? To me it looks like a Runecrafting Altar, because it's round like a Runecrafting altar, the same size as an ingame Runecrafting Altar and in a cave like multiple Runecrafting Altars. And that, my friend, was a good point I made with solid proof. [/hide] Oh, right, thats the Ancient page. I agree that it doesn't look very convincing :oops: But there was a thread made by a forum mod on the RSOF where it didn't seem like there were much doubt about the colour of the Stone being crimson. He had other sources than just the Ancient page, but I cant remember them right now. But I thought we knew the Stone was circular? I thought that was kind of a given.... oh well, don't wanna go up against Hippodo :o I have seen enough of your posts to know that you are much more knowledgeable about this than I am :lol: But about the RC altar theory, it doesn't really look like it has a flat top like the other altars. And it looks red/crimson, and most other altars have grey as the main colour. And I don't think a soul altar would be crimson... but you never know. Might be the light that is playing tricks on us :) Well first of all thanks for the compliment :), finally some recognition :lol: . And I apologise if I was a bit harsh the last time. Your first few posts made me think I was talking to a headstrong kind of person, but that doesn't seem to be the case. About the Forum Mod and his arguments, I honestly can't remember one book, text or tome in which the Stone of Jas was described crimson, but that doesn't mean I am right. I've done Meeting History as well, and I too have seen the strange rock floating in the middle of the screen. To me it seems logical that it is the Stone of Jas, looking at the context of the cutscene, but remember that this is still an assumption. Many assumptions are presented as facts, but facts can be proven, while assumptions are only thoughts made by one mind. You can see here that other people do not share your vision and some don't even see the rock at all! Finally, regarding 'my' altar theory. Looking at it the right way I AM able to discover at least somewhat the same shape as an altar, including the flat top, but again that's just me. And furthermore, you must not confuse real colour with added colour. The picture is probably edited to make it more 'medieval-like', and so it blends in better with the rest of the site. It's all about the same brown/beige/gold kind of thing. So the object itself can be any colour in the world. Anyway, this topic turned out quite nicely, and I enjoy reading it : Apology accepted : I think this should become more of a discussion about what the stone in the picture could possibly be, rather than a discussion about whether it's the Stone of Jas or not. Good idea? I will need a mod to change the title though.

Ignore this post :D

Yea, as I'm a quest lover I've seen the thing that we THINK is the Stone of Jas in the cutscene. I just find it very weird that they would place a large normal rock on their front page.... Anyways, Norwegians ftw! :thumbsup:

:lol: I agree there. sometimes I think, people force themselves to see what they want to see :roll: I just see a red background, with some lighter highlights in it. as for this stone of jas thing...no pic, no proof tbh :? It's not exactly hidden.... it's the huge red top of a rock in the middle of the picture... I'm definitely not kidding myself :D

In the middle there is what looks like the top of a huge crimson/orange/red stone.

Now I can see that you might interpret this as the Stone of Jas, but there are some things I don't get. Why does he call the Stone 'hornless'? And what are these 'setmates' he is referring to?

Even if Jagex did intend for that to be the Stone of Jas in the picture, it's not conclusive evidence for anything. But it is..... for the fact that the stone in the picture is the Stone of Jas.... might have misunderstood you :) What more can I add? Not only that mess, but the color of the stone is not crimson. It's more of an orange, like my highlighting. Yea, I know I exaggerated a bit, was probably too excited #-o I already edited it though. As for the stone in the picture looking orange, I think thats just because it's lighted up by something.

Yes but anytime makes an argument against it you seem to feel the need to throw the "b-but its crimson and round" thing out there. You can't make a topic and expect to not have some kind of argument against your theory. You meen the "It has the right shape, colour, location and look"-argument : But yea, I see your point.

Exactly what I'm thinking. That's like pointing to a table and saying 'It's 100% teak because it's made of wood'. *Points to my post just one post above yours*. No, you said you had almost overwhelming evidence that it was the Stone of Jas. Yea, because it fits the desciption of the Stone of Jas so well, aswell as the location. Overwhelming evidence doesn't necessarily meen that it's definitely the Stone of Jas. But I guess I exaggerated a bit, so I will edit that for ya ;)

Exactly what I'm thinking. That's like pointing to a table and saying 'It's 100% teak because it's made of wood'. *Points to my post just one post above yours*. it might be a rock crab lol :D its might be living , just not a thing we concider to be living ... a golem has a limited will but he is not a living creature ... it might be just a magical artifact with "programmed" will and abilities (check the last chapter of psyren and you will get what I am talking about ..) Lol god I hope it's not a rock crab on the front page : It might be that it has a will, although I still doubt it. I still don't think it can change colour though. Thats very interesting and a good point. As I said to the guy above, I doubt it has a will and am almost certain it can't change colour though.

Please note the "?" at the end of my title people : I'm not saying it definitely is the Stone of Jas, but it just doesn't look like a normal stone to me.
