Can someone explain how to clear are cache.

 

 

 

The only problem I have with this a single Jagex Mod won't tell us why its there and the fact I don't want a moderntime thing on a medievil like game. -.-

 

 

 

Also Mechscape hint. ::'

 

 

 

If you use firefox Ctrl+F5 will to a hard refresh. (that will remove any cached items for the page).

At least it isn't as bad as:

where it literally popped out of the screen, froze my computer, and would take me to the external link no matter where I clicked...

99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me!

Going off of that topic; G.I Joe's been released in theaters? *rushes off to the movies*

 

 

 

But in all seriousness; You don't question Joe. If he wants an ad for his movie on Runescape, he'll damn well get his ad. What are you, some kind of Cobra supporter?

Adblock o_o

 

But I see it when I turn it off.

 

 

 

Yep... Seriously, why don't you guys use adblock. It solves so many annoyances.

 

 

 

<3 Firefox

 

 

 

It's cause they're some IE using dummies.

AdBlock Plus :thumbup: - FireFox is the best browser :D

 

 

 

Bear in mind, it is against the rules if you're f2p :-w

I don't really have anything against this ad. The old popups, the ones with sound screaming all the time, and the X-men one that covered half the screen I couldn't stand. This ad is actually pretty ok seeing as it doesn't interfere with anything.

I can't see it at all, not on FireFox nor Internet Explorer. :?

 

 

 

I don't see, personally, how people can be bothered by it. Jagex are a company, companies aims are to make profit. This is just another way of doing so. You never spend long on the main page, it's just the portal to go to other areas so to speak. Even then, everything is accessible from other parts of the website via the dropdown boxes.

 

 

 

Quit yer whinin'. ;)

Im guessing its only for the people who live in the US? Cus the people that say they cant see it, all have UK as their location.
And Canada. Don't forget about us canuks. :lol:

 

 

 

Seriously though, is it that big of a deal? Advertising is a big part of Jagex's revenue. At least they stopped putting in huge pop-ups (*cough* X-Men Origins: Wolverine *cough*), right?

THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P.

So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

Meh... I currently dont have it but I really wouldn't mind if I did.

 

 

 

JaGex are probably making a shed load of money from it, which aint bad imo.

Theres a fine line between not listening and not caring,

I like to think I walk this line every day.

Pinning blame on Jagex is like trying to put pants on an old man.

You both know he needs them, but he'll just keep dancing around, avoiding them at all costs.

i wanna call it stupid but i'd probably do the same thing if i ran a website that got over a million hits/day.

 

 

 

(i can only hope they'll do it for more movies in the future, even if they couldn't advertise R-rated ones)

I like Gi Joe, I collect the action figure line and autographs of the original voice actors. I've been working on the new movie cast as well, so far have nichols, park , tatum and wayans.

 

 

 

I support this 110% :P

I personall don't see the problem or how it can possible effect people. It isn't covering anything up, or taking up space used by anything useful. It is only taking up the area that was a MA picture, which took up a fair amount of space. From a pure business standpoint, thats a hell of a lot of space that can be used for advertising and some nice extra income.
