Randox Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 If its a fake, its very well done. The text at the top does not match anything currently in use, but Jagex already have several fonts on the go. Besides, if they were faking and wanted to use that style, why not use the real deal and grap the letters off the main site? There is a style like that already (All caps, but with 2 sizes) , so why that wouldn't be used does raise suspecion. As to the 'a' vs 'an' thing, its simple. The name of the monster is likely stored as "Tormented Demon" not "A Tormented Demon". Everything else would be a template, and apparently it uses 'a'. Were this to be released, they would likely fix it so that it uses 'an' where appropriate. This would not be Jagex's first gramatical error. The icons all fit what is currently in use. I don't know. I would like to know where this came from before I pass judgement. I would like to see the rest of the page too. I can't fully belive thats real, as much as I might like it to be.

NateTheGreat Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm going to say it's a fake because when you really think about it, right now the high scores don't update in real time, they update once you log out of your account. So how would the feed for "I killed such and such monster" work? It would only make sense if the page was updated as your playing but think of how much resources this would take to be able to do that. Plus why would you need an RSS feed for your own activity? Add in the fact the grammatical errors and a grayish background (why not brown to match with the rest of the site?) it just seems like a really well done fake. Also at the top where it gives rank, and total level, and total experience, why are they white while the rest is a greyish transparent colour? Doesn't seem to really fit in.Could be a RSS feed for your friends?

Kalafai Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 If it's real, I can't let my dad see the time played, that's for sure. Anyway, I doubt it is real-The old stat icons and the default forum avatar are both there.Plus, date is today, so...Also, who fights a Mithril Dragon, suddenly decides to go fight an (Look, just one) abyssal demon, then go back to the dragons?Notice, that's the Friend's activity collom.

Howlin0001 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Saw this pic linked in irc (from a top 100 player I won't name). Apparently he got it from a friend and I'm guessing it's related to the update Jagex promised about showing your total gameplay hours etc. What do you guys think, fake or legit?Em I asked a few j-mods could they tell me how long I player RuneScape for and they said couldn't due to the data protection act (I think that's what the law is called).

KingDodongo Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Looks a bit rough around the edges to be something JaGeX would do. Maybe it's still early days, but it doesn't seem good enough.

udontnojak55 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm not sure what to about it. It looks legit, but there's a couple things that don't add up. As some people stated before it has the old skill icons even though the activities listed are very recent. Another thing that looks a little bit "fake" are the skill levels. If you notice he has 15 level 99 skills, and he hasn't even been playing a year. I love the design and layout with the blog-like listing, I just don't think it's real.

Go look. And I believe the "Time played" is your actual time spent logged in, not time since you registered the account. So his would account to somewhere around 6893 hours played. That equals out to an average XP/hour rate of 43k, which is perfectly reasonable. I still think it's a fake. 8,325th to 99 Firemaking 3/9/08 | 44,811th to 99 Cooking 7/16/084,968th to 99 Farming 10/9/09 | Runescaper August 2005-March 2010Tip.it Mod Feb. 2008-Sep. 2008 | Tip.it Crew Sep. 2008-Nov. 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omali Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Em I asked a few j-mods could they tell me how long I player RuneScape for and they said couldn't due to the data protection act (I think that's what the law is called). So I'm wondering.... There's no law against telling people how long they've accumulated on their own accounts, otherwise Blizzard would be receiving daily fines for /timeplayed.

Dirkmetal Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Jagex did say they where upgrading the back-end servers so they could handle more features. This could very well be just that. What else could it be? There is nothing else! Even if this is a faked picture, the idea that this will be made is very possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mordendravid Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 To be honest, I'd be more inclined to think it was fake if it *didn't* have spelling/grammar errors, look how many completed developments make it into the game with these sorts of errors. I can quite easily believe this is a screenshot of something in development. I'd also say it's actually quite in-keeping with the general style of RS. There are also similarities between the style in the screeny and say, the end of game notice at Stealing Creation. My vote therefore is that this is real.
