"Here be Dragons" article

Featured Replies

I'm trying to locate a certain author of an article posted a while back here in the Rants forum. The article's name was "Here be Dragons," wherein the author spoke passionately about the lack of adventure in MMOs because of the inherently 'grindy' aspect of XP gain and the degrading state of Runescape. It was one of the most well-written runescape rants of all time - even Mod Mark commented on the article and claimed it was part of the inspiration for the Dungeoneering skill.

 

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could find the author and tell me some way to contact him. I am in need of his writing abilities. Thanks.

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 :( .

I'm assuming this is what you are looking for. It gives you a starting point at least.

 

It looks like the author is Slayer Lylax.

I remember reading this on the RSOF, and thinking to myself how great it was.

He's probably long quit by now, though, and since the only lead we have is the RSOF, I can imagine that it'd be close to impossible :(

In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.
