After forgetting to bring a charged glory to the Death Altar, I had to do something else. (Home tele in 20 minutes ;_;) Like trawling through the RSOF, which led me to this topic:

 

Have you seen the ghosts?

 

I'm just wondering, has anyone else noticed these things they're talking about? Apparently, all you need to do is stand around at the GE, and these things filter into existence for a small window of time.

 

 

 

And on page 2 of the thread, there is a post detailing a number of people who have seen these things.

 

 

 

Thoughts etc?

 

 

 

Edit:

Could be like those sightings of monsters by farming patches before summoning was released. Did anyone ever find out if those monsters had any correllation to summoning? I'm thinking that if these sightings are real, it might have to do with the trapdoor under the GE and lead into a new huge quest (not the dwarf one).

Probably some RSOF crap like always

My thoughts. :lol:

 

 

 

No pic, no proof. :P

Anyone remember [bleep]e?

Wasnt that something about a ghost?

 

I remember something about it, but not the big details.

Something that killed players around Crandor/Karamja or so, lol.

 

 

 

[bleep]e was a rumor, made up by RSOF people. [bleep]e never existed. And these "ghosts" are most likely made up by the same people, and don't exist either.

I'll have to agree with this. The OP must be tripping... :roll:

Apparently the monsters were Swamp titans, those evil turnip things etc.

Ghosts Ahoy Quest is a quest with a sailor/pirate....so i am guessing Sailing :thumbup:

 

 

 

On a serious note, no i have not seen any ghosts at G.E but then again i haven't paid much attention either.

I spend my entire RS life in the GE, sounds on etc.

 

 

 

I've never heard a single moan, or cry

 

nor seen anything - and I'm a very alert person.

 

It could've been as simple as this:

 

 

Fog + NPCs =

Lol i remember those both

 

 

 

But ghosts dont freak me out, merchants do

Nah can't believe thiss, if they add moving NPCs and if they frequent they would make the game lagg, remember why some familiars weren't alloud in some poblated places like varrock, falador and ardougne, they where remove yes but they where there becouse they tought it would cause lagg, but now they removed it but it stills in GE.

 

 

 

So in my opinion is that the guy got freak out when a npc or someone in ghostly robes was near the Mist in HD then walked down to the mist so he couldn't see him anymore but it looked more ''transparent'' try it with any friend, i did it with the NPCs telling the prices at GE they look more ghostly.

 

 

 

EDIT: Dammit you took my theory!

I doubt a moving npc would cause that much lag. :|

I stopped saying "no pic no proof" after I got proved wrong with Dark Squall :-#. This ghost thing could be a possible hint to what lies under the GE (Indian burial ground anyone?)

I doubt a moving npc would cause that much lag. :|

At the Grand Exchange it certainly would.

I think I saw one of these 'ghosts'. They are light-grey, and they appear for a very little time. No moaning yet, however. They have some kind of robes on (not ghostly, they are near transparent.) It fits most of the descriptions on the RSOF. This is interesting..

go back to the rsof please

 

 

 

ooh Look a ghost... Armour and weapon price checker :o :ohnoes:

I was going to say that the Varrock sewers are home to ghosts and it could easily be a brief sprite glitch in which the ghosts appear above the surface.

Wth is Garrk egs?

 

Anyway. It would be interesting if it was true, like the text you saw in wilderness before spirit of summer was released.

I once appeared swimming through the south corridor on the ground floor of lumbridge castle while using the agility shortcut through the river between lumbridge swamps and al-kharid, so this is actualy possible. I wish I had a pic, but I was to stunned to get one.

 

 

 

Other valid theories include:

 

Fog + npc

 

Fog + players
