Yes there was first online players page where you was able to see every character who was online and their online age...then there was server status page where was showing only highest level player in each skill...after that came top 2000 list (or was it top 1000 first but got expanded shortly?) I also added today some random pictures besides of toplists...

Before website got hiscores they released toplists in text format and in part of newsletters. I collected all from january 2001 to july 2001 in one place so new players can see old newsletters how runescape was back then... http://samppa.ifastnet.com/

Yeah, I'm still kicking around. XD I've got a lot of memories. My first addy sq from Bluerose, arguing with Militant and King Sabre (my best friend was heavily into teh clan drama), hanging out in wildy with LKJ, meeting TKS in teh mines, beating Ezarc to teh iron ore in teh dwarven mines when he was 90 mining (and I was liek, 80, maybe lawl... 1337 clicking skillz, srsly XD), helping with RSTrivia with Leza and teh gang, and tons more. I've been playing a long time, not that my levels reflect that, I'm such a lazy leveller; but 4 me, RS has always been about fun. Good times, good times. You must got cooking gloves according to your high cooking :P

I forgot about first chat filter they added...it must be funniest day in whole RS history ever...every thing you said in game turned out into "in game" words...i havent laughed so much in rs ever than i did then. ppl didnt understand each other anymore...it was like you said something and it turned out as "other language"...it was complete chaos lol and that day made me add closest friends in rs in messenger list since we all thought it was permament. I regret i didnt store screenies from that day it was alot of fun to try out all dirty words how they came out in game...and laugh my "bucket" off :P

I remember all that i still have screenshots....door closers were annoying i remember them being in both varrock banks keeping doors closed and auto messaging something. And phat dupe day i went also see it in varrock...i think i havent seen so many ppl in rsc varrock castle that i saw in that day.

I started doing quests again after longer break...i quit before runecrafting so i did rune mysteries about 2 weeks ago. I also did f2p and p2p quests with my noob recently...ive done them multiple times in rsc but i noticed some were changed enough from rsc that i needed to look guides to complete them. I was trying to do Sheep Herder in rs2 and it really makes me mad...i gave up after 1 sheep...i remember how annoying its in rsc but its nothing compared to rs2. So far only players ive seen in game playing now that started early 2001 are Lady Lynda, G Bub, Sorceress, Glove, Arsenes, Bookofnod. I dont start exp racing im just to do quests and try things around im explorer now...im also planning to go back to RSC since i have access there also. My rs name is M Oldfield but in rs2 im noob...i dont know what is barrows, dds, guthix etc because i grew in different game...in rsc im more like in home but acheving there something isnt anything anymore, it looks ghost town.

i thought too...i forgot to look how many days my character had in that screen but im pretty sure it was last logged somewhere spring 2005 and yet still it got access to rsc after almost 2 years...im going to try my other character later which was also in rsc around same time to see if i can play it still since it was better character. So im quite sure that if character was playing RSC somewhere 2005, it still have access there.

0 capes 69 rares im saving, not spending for skills...though i should say that i got all buyable 99 skills in bank :P

i always cursed iron smelting...i rarely got smelted load that had more than 50% of bars...until last time i smelted 500 iron on my noob and got out over 300 bars from it...i had santa hat equipped through smelting so it just became my lucky hat after that smelting :P

Crimson Tide (zimmer), Gladiator (zimmer), 1492 Conquest of Paradise (vangelis), Blade Runner (vangelis), Stallion of Cimarron (zimmer)...those might been my most listened movie themes...

La Femme Nikita, The Equalizer, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Miami Vice, Walker Texas Ranger.....i like retro :P

odd...that webpage is only webpage that ever popped my virus scanner up as soon as i open that site?

i think my oldest non holiday item is either fire or air staff or my rs wedding diamond ring from february 2002...and oldest holiday item is pumpkin i got november 2001

I cannot believe that they have gone this far if they ban for this...if your trade was only reason for ban why they should think it was rl trading when item returns to person who originally bought it. My guess is that in this case they was only monitoring first trade and came into conclusion that it was rl trading and they already had decided ban before 2nd trade happend. I would rather see partyhats sold in general store permamently than being feared of getting banned every time partyhat is involved in trade....i should just call them as "hat of banning" (rarer color has higher chance to get you banned lol)

this is sweet...i just found out i still have working classic account...just out of blue i decided to log in rsc and i was in lumby so im proud owner of working rsc account...i lost my hope long time ago thinking i was not active enough when they changed things. But after wandering around little its really sad to see how many ppl autoing there.

You are wrong but he is kind of legend also...he was mystery for everyone since he didnt talk or trade during his rs career...he worked all his stuff and levels without buying anything from players...i remember when someone tried to give him free rune 2 hander he had to drop it to front of him. I didnt see him many times but when i saw him i tried to talk but ofcourse i was not lucky enough to get answer :P

what if i have borrowed something like white partyhat back 2002 and im going to return it to owner now? yes im holding very expensive items on my oldest pker i was keeping for friend back 2002 since there wasnt too much bank space then. If im going to return them now, how is jagex going to prove that im rl trader...they cannot track items back to 2002 when it was originally traded so technically they count that they are my items since i been holding them 5 years. I really hope jagex has solid proof to ban for trading...i know items i been holding are hundreds of millions worth these days when they was less than 1mill back then but i dont want take risks if i cannot trust jagex and their wild banning system. Im quite sure they dont care any no matter if they ban for reason or not...there is so many players now that they dont have time to check any deeper in each case...

teh unseen uses rsc lol sorceress playing still...she (or he) was weird but pretty much oldschool...noob forever though :P

i noticed those google ads in this forum...im wondering how many new "customers" they got from here.

i dont see him even in firemaking list so i think he was woodcutter only

no offense but she was late starting player...so that is probably reason she is not mentioned in rs legends list because ppl in list and in players memory already gained their reputation and did something remarkable before she got around. during my playing time from early 2001 to late 2002 think i saw her first time somewhere mid 2002 but she wasnt so high yet then.

i remember player called Lando from past...he was pretty high level at time and usually walked around with staff equipped since he was high magic and prayer at time. First ruby ammy which i got was made by Rab...i remember clearly that moment he was making it for me at falador furnance for 5k fee and after he made it, rs server went down and we got rolled back in time so after i got back online i had only raw material for ammy so he made me that again lol I cannot remember who made my fisrt diamond ammy but i remember well when mysticmagic got 70 crafting, she was about as popular as bluerose in smithing and everyone was bugging her but she did some free crafting when she had "manager" to deal with ppl to settle trades (Darkprince)...and not long after that she quit playing.

Interesting...I remember when i saw robin hood training in varrock sewer ghosts all time, i started call him as "sewer rat"

wondering how many original 2001 made plate pures there is left in RSC...i just got mine back from jagex which i havent been using for over 5 years but its useless since it cannot log in rsc anymore :P

It was Romeo and Julia he made? atleast website said "thanks Rab" :P As you can guess, that is only the note of support :P guess again Hehe Thehate :P I messed up :) He did do that quest but the one i was thinking of was abit later on. So it was two quests. *note* to thehate, i told you my memory is bad :P last guess...quote from my archives:
