July 26, 200916 yr I can imagine kids asking for free gold from jagex or parents asking to buy their children cheap gold for Christmas >.> I watched a recording of some american news article about internet safety and they interviewed this kid who played runescape (must have been about 10-13 at least) because he lost his account to hackers and his mother was saying "he spent a lot of his pocket money buying items for the game and now he's lost it" -.- :wall: dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project.

July 26, 200916 yr Ask yourself: Are you man enough? Hero enough? Insane enough to step in an office with the most whyniest kids (and their parents) in the galaxy? If you say yes, then head to Cambridge! Awesomerference :thumbsup:
July 26, 200916 yr I would actualy do it if I were 2 years younger and my mom was having her birthday that date. (I think we're going to England at her birthday) Who wouldn't want to test a new update to Runescape before it was released?

I have been trying to find that again for ages! Also ot we can rule out mechscape as it's supposedly a more mature game, and therefore they wouldn't be wanting 11-16 year olds to test it. dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project.
July 26, 200916 yr Someone seriously needs to tell us what the jagex offices are like. \ Oh, and shake hands with Mod MMG (and Paul, I guess). By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( .
July 26, 200916 yr [bleep] being 17 This. THIS! But... I LOOK under 17. I just need someone to act as my guardian now. OH JAGEX I'M COMING FOR YOU! [/extreme fangirlism] I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog]. I am an [Ex-Moderator].
July 26, 200916 yr Sounds like an update that's sole purpose is to get new players to the game, not to satisfy veterans of the game. Why not ask players on the forums or anywhere to submit applications? Sure they would get thousands, but it's better than some random kid on the street.

It's not an update it's just a thing asking for local kids. They're not going to ask on the forums because you'll get idiots in... America say or half way across the world sending in applications.

July 26, 200916 yr Shame I'm not 16, I'd of gone down there as well. Next time I might take my brother, seeing as I'm classed as an adult lol. [-- DYNAMIC SIGNATURES FOR RUNESCAPE 3 & OLDSCHOOL 2007 RUNESCAPE --]
July 26, 200916 yr Rofl, you need to be 13 to play, and they are allowing 11 year olds. They think that 11-16 year olds are able to find bugs and problems in the game? Sad really. They should put ads out in places where hardcore, really smart players go and give them an incentive to test drive their game with some money or something. Didn't read the other posts so if this has already been answered oh well It's been a hell of a ride. 2002-2013

And it isn't the end of the world if kids < 13 play RuneScape, either. :roll: Linux User/Enthusiast | Full-Stack Software Engineer | Stack Overflow Member | GIMP User...Alright, the Elf City update lured me back to RS over a year ago.
July 26, 200916 yr I wonder what the update to Runescape is. It must be something big because they need real players.
July 26, 200916 yr If I lived anywhere near England I'd show up anyway. Maybe I'd take my 15 year old brother who plays and act as his guardian.
July 26, 200916 yr What the hell Jagex?!? What. The. Hell. Why are you asking for random kids in Cambridge to test your update when you could, far more easily, just ask a few members on the forums? Why not just saunter down to the high level forum and ask? They would, obviously, be the most help testing ANY update. Just have them agree to a confidentiality agreement and there it you are. Done. And it could be done over the internet. Much easier. Instead, they do this. Ah, well. Now we know that their target group really IS 11-16. Jealousy Much? I think its a good idea. I wonder what the new update may be, New engine for RS3 perhaps? My Stats Suck :(

July 26, 200916 yr *explodes* Wow that would be amazing, it's perfect for me! I live not too far from Cambridge, I'm 16, I'll be applying for University there, and the experience would really help my application. Wow. ~ W ~
