Winning a game of CWars
Having not player it before, i doubt you will be able to have enough effect to win the game yourself on a themed world. You could try paying on an empty world with friends, or try to pick lucky on a themed world.

It wouldn't change the look, but it could make it run better, meaning you may be able to run the graphics settings higher.

Well i'm no tech guy, but I would expect changing such a large part of the game's back end will not be perfect straight off the bat. give it a little time and i would expect them to improve it swiftly.

Please remember, that just because this thread is for pictures does not mean posting any old rubbish. If it isn't going to add to the thread and is just there to get a post and for 'teh lulz' it may be removed. Just like normal discussions are there for words, spam words will be removed, spam pictures will be removed. Unspamming with a pointless picture is not needed. You don't need to post a picture as long as your post adds something. Thank you.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
I brought up the BTS as an example of what happens when the Runescape community gets told of anything that is going to happen. The fact this has not been brought up until now does not make me think that they are making life miserable for all their customers, just a select few who would be doing the largest dungeons in the largest group. As has been said, people have always had their actions interrupted by update timers, it is nothing new and i do not see this minority being enough to warrant a change.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
I personally wouldn't like monthly updates. The problem with Runescape is that updates can usually be finished rather quickly. with weekly updates, usually you will do it and get back to what you were doing for another week before doing the next update. With monthly updates, you would probably complete all the updates in a week maybe add an extra half, then spend 3-2.5 weeks without having anything new to do. Weekly and bi-weekly updates keep the game feeling much more fresh than having larger lumps of updates. (in my opinion)

1 in all stats, 180k gp/hr
It's a good idea for a newcomer indeed. Unfortunately it does not warrant it's own thread here. You can always make a guide on it and post it in our guides section if you think it will be useful to new players. Locking this.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
You have yet to explain how. If you actually think that a software company has everyone sitting around on their hands from the time they announce an update until when it happens, well, you're wrong. And if you think Jagex only knows 10 minutes before an update goes live that it's going to go live, well, again, you're wrong. The community is the way it is in large part because of the very "keep them in the dark" policies that you are defending! Most RS players start every week expecting an update by 4 pm GMT on Monday. When that doesn't happen, they expect an update by 4 pm GMT on Tuesday and so on. Why? Because updates often occur on Monday or Tuesday, and Jagex never tells us what the hell is going on. The expectation is there already -- what is NOT there is any useful information. Most of the time they know which day of the week is going to be the update day. So tell us! And if it slips, it slips. Guess what? They're doing this already anyway. Except the only time we hear from them is when things go wrong. Tell us in advance, warn that dates aren't set in concrete, and if people whine, IGNORE THEM. That is the proper way to do things. They are at least getting better about telling us when updates are delayed. They are unfortunately missing out on the positive potential here that they could reap by telling us when the updates are scheduled. The idea that all of the reasonable customers should be kept in the dark because a few unreasonable sots will complain if a deadline slips is too preposterous to seriously consider. Sorry, but do you not remember how much ranting BTS lead to? The keeping in the dark strategy is working much better than that system did. There would be ranting for EVERY update, no matter how good it was due to people making the wildest assumptions on the smallest things , e.g the robin hood hat fiasco. I do think that small hints, such as their twitter hints are good, but giving definite details on any update will bring nothing but pain for them. Jagex do tell us when an update has hit a wall and is not coming. The posts are even commonly posted here in various thread, you just need to look for them.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
It impedes them a lot. If they run into technical difficulties in that time, you know the community in Runescape. They will be hung drawn and quartered for saying they planned an update for x time, even if it was something minor.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
So it makes more sense to piss off thousands of customers every week for absolutely no reason, rather than simply give more notice, something that solves the problem for 99% of players and costs them absolutely nothing? But we do not know it costs them nothing. i would guess that they give the warning when they are ready to implement the update. That means for those 10 minutes, nobody can do any more work. Time is money and a company will not want to waste an hour where they cannot do anything. Half an hour may be ok, but it still does not seem like much of a big deal to me.

Druids and the God Wars Dungeon
Then it would suggest that Guthix is who froze over the dungeon either during or after the wars, either to prevent the spread ot to prevent the Godsword from escaping. It would also mean that the source of the freezing is in his temple through the door.

Dungeoneering & System Updates?
It has been happening for 5+ years with Cw. Clan wars, barbarian assault, trouble brewing, SC, MA. It's nothing new. Just because now it effects you it should be changed? It is only going to be 30-50k exp you lose, no big deal.
