How long have these forums existed?

[Quasar 298]

I think I started in '05 as well, and these boards were much more active then.

[jimmy_jim 107]

I liked the part where star wars galaxies died a horrible death while runescape is still going strong

04' joiner here. Do you remember when there was huge Arenascape section below. Actually, I'm pretty sure that I found out about this forum via Arenascape. There was a link to "forum" at their page and that redirected here, that was back in 2003.

For the record I asked Silv yesterday if we ever got a copy of the scapeboard DB and he said it was never handed over, so that's never coming back even as an archive, sorry. :P

Ah, the good old days...

[Plugpoint 86]

longer then some runescape players have been alive

This made me feel so old :(

[ohhh 7]

I feel like a big noob. These forums is what RSof was years ago. It's so active... and awsome :D like no trolls!

[Kaida23 769]

Oh, there's trolls. Every forum has trolls. Ours are just less asinine and more loveable. :P

Yup.

I miss the old days of RS! :(

[hdis 1]

My account is about four years old, had an old forum account but I don't remember the logins :/

[sa121 22]

Whatever happened to Arenascape anyway? Is it still around at all?

[Hedgehog 2501]

Here's the link. I'd assume you can still play.

Kinda interesting to find topics you wrote or read over a decade ago... Anyways went through my ow archives and found quite a few pics worth posting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Those pics are from december 2002 if my memory serves me right. The person in santa is me and that's a Scapeboard mod pk event. Some familiar names can be found from the pics.

 

 

Back in the days Andrew was somewhat active at the forums and taking part in discussions too. No ivory towers or anything, just chatting like the rest of the guys.

 

 

Old Scapeboard layout from 2003. Notice the mod list ;)

 

 

Lacks cropping, but meh.

 

 

Gotta love the old market section. Things were "a bit" different back in then.

 

 

Gotta love the prices.

 

 

Another old layout.

 

 

Notice who had posted the last thing to the general section ;)

[Piu 98]

Silverion, Lightning, Ozzie, ahh all the nostalgia. Although I wasn't a poster/member until 2006(?) (Will check join date in a bit), I remember a time when RS was really just for fun, drop party, fun events etc. Now it's all XP and cash revolved.

Wow everyone here's a veteran :P I started out on my account in late 2009. I thought that i was a "veteran" of some sort.

 

players from '05 everywhere, amazing to see :D

[Mercifull 309]

Awww I see a Miss Runite in that pic, shame her account was hijacked by someone else and the Miss Runite in game now is a fraud and wearing MY BLUE PHAT that I gave her when I quit.

[FooK-A-Ji 9]

Good read, this thread :)

[Saradomin_Mage 3562]

Good read, this thread :)

I swear you appear and vanish at the strangest of times.

[Ginger_Warrior 689]

Party hats being traded using diamond amulets as currency... love it.

 

I wonder what the OT board looked like in those days, that pre-9/11 world.

[Huge Noob 210]

Back in RSC I traded my Dragon Med for a Red Partyhat. It was awesome, lol.
