i recently had a girl follow me across fally

 

asking me to go back to my house and do stuff

 

it gave me a good laugh

 

but i was in no way offended

 

honestly it's not like you can have sex

 

talk about sex

 

or do anything sexual besides the kiss emote

 

i fail to see the big deal

 

 

 

Because there are 6 year old kids who play this game.

 

 

 

Anything to deal with that would encourage people to break the rules.

I'm looking at wikipedia's list of world holidays...There don't seem to be all that many. The majority are either very religious or only celebrated in 1 country (like 4th of July).

 

 

 

Here's a list I came up with:

 

 

 

New Years

 

Valentines Day

 

St. Patricks Day

 

= Easter

 

April Fools

 

= Halloween

 

= Thanksgiving

 

= Christmas

 

= means already done by Jagex

 

 

 

There are also several 'natural' holidays based on natural phenomenon.

 

First day of spring / summer / autumn / winter

 

Summer / winter solstice

 

Chinese new year

From the official Runescape rules:

 

 

 

"Is it okay to ask for a boyfriend or girlfriend in the games?

 

 

 

No, that is solicitation and is not allowed at all. This is to ensure the safety of all our players."

 

 

 

So beware.

Jagex usually makes posts on april 1st promising tons of cool items like dragon kites and plates, wich turn out to be toy kites and spinning plates :lol:

 

Oh, and the promised cabbage updates ftw? \'

The quest line for Bonfire Night should be Guy [bleep] (player dressed as him) trying to bomb Parliament (Jagex)

 

Haha. I jest.

 

 

 

 

Remember, remember, the 5th of November.

 

 

 

I like this idea. We should be given Guy Fowkes masks as well.

 

 

 

 

 

Could do with one between Easter and Hallowe'en, I suppose 4th July fits that criteria but it only applies to Americans :-k

 

 

 

Yeah, I wonder why the hell a BRITISH company would celebrate July 4th. (Assuming if they did)

SWAG

 

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

Found a nifty site that might help the discussion:

 

 

 

http://www.earthcalendar.net/_php/CountrySearch.php

 

 

 

Go ahead and selection 2009 for the year, and pick the International Holidays for the country part. :P LOTS of holidays to choose from... Just need to find one that makes more sense to have in game. :lol:

How about if Jagex made up Runescape holidays, like "Cabbage Day" or something?

 

Cabbages could get some buffs on the day. Like they heal 1 more hp than normal. They can be buried for 1 prayer xp. You could have cabbages following you around and all that sort of nonsense... Hey! I have something here *runs off to suggestions*

Chinese New Year FTW.

 

 

 

Or 4th of July. Emote: jump into a box full of fire crackers. Item: throw the firecrackers at people? No bad idea...

 

 

 

But a RS holiday might not be a bad idea... I'm not member, so I don't know any back stories to RS's History, but what if they had some event where you can relive the God Wars... Epic fighting... And it could be on a special date, like the anniversary of RS (does anyone know the actual date?)! And it would have some cool story to it and everything, and the reward could be some sort of clothing that would reflect your chosen side.

I don't see the big deal behind Valentine's Day, you don't even have to relate it to couples. You could have to do something for Cupid, and get your very own special bow. Or everyone gets a box of chocolates or flowers.

 

St. Patrick's day would be rather nice, and you could get a pot of gold (filled with gold ore, uncut gems, or coins), a 4-leaf clover, or a leprechaun outfit.

 

I like the idea of Arbor Day not giving out anything, and yellow ribbons would be tied around trees rendering them impossible to cut down that day. It's a great way to stop macroers too.

 

I'd like to see something Cinco de Mayo especially.

Everyone is down on valentines day...It doesnt have to be between 2 players. It can involve 2 npc like the Romeo and Juliet, 2 cats or troll quest. Maybe they could do it with gnomes this time or tzaars lol. The even could be chocolate delivery or some heartland thing with faries. Maybe have a secret land under the body altar or something.

Some time in march I believe. It's about recycling and other stuff like that. Keeping the Earth clean and such.

lol, sorry for typing that. I know 2:10 is equal to 1:5, but I kinda typed that at around midnight yesterday, give me some slack. #-o

 

 

 

EDIT: My guess is right around the mark isn't it? Or is more like 1:10?

I was actually referring to biggy08755's text. He kindof suggests that they aren't the same.

 

This talk also reminds me of an internet rule that says: "There are no girls on the internet." :lol:

 

 

 

And are you referring to people who are dressed like girls, or who are actually girls IRL?

 

 

 

And back to topic: I would like to see a New Year event.
