10 April 2006 - New RuneScape Forums!

Recommended Posts

Today we have released the new version of the RuneScape forums, improving on the style and look of the old forums. As well as making it easier to navigate around, we have removed the need to log in to the forums in order to read them. Members will still be able to post by logging in using the link at the top of the forums page.

 

 

 

We have also added a host of new features - here are some of them:

 

 

 

Bump button

 

If you look next to the reply button, you'll see a new feature - "Bump". Clicking this will move the thread to the top of its forum. This feature has been added to remove the need for people to post "bump" messages, which will in turn make it much easier to see the actual conversation in the thread.

 

 

 

Note you can only bump your own thread, and you can only bump one thread every 10 minutes, to avoid this system being abused.

 

 

 

Message previews

 

The message preview feature will allow you to know what your message will look like before it's posted. You'll find the "preview" button next to the "add" button when you're adding a message.

 

 

 

FMod and JMod colours

 

Jagex Moderator posts have changed, so that now they will be gold. There will also be a gold crown next to their names. Similarly, Forum Moderators will have a green crown next to their name as well as keeping the green background on their messages

 

 

 

Smilies!

 

When you add messages, you can also add smilies :)! Check the smiley legend (available when adding a message) to see what smilies you can use.

 

 

 

User profiles

 

If you're logged in, on the main forums page, in the top right, you'll see "My Profile". This shows the list of the last threads you posted in, as well as your post count and gives you the option to turn smilies on or off.

 

 

 

Quick-Find codes

 

At the very bottom of a thread page there is now a "Quick Find Code" - if you put this into the "Quick Find" box at the top of the page it will take you back to that thread. This means you can jump straight to a thread by knowing this number, and will help in the forum emergencies forum.

 

 

 

Jump to forum

 

Also in the top right, there is a drop-down box which will let you go straight to another forum without navigating to the front page. Speedy!

 

 

 

Updated search (multiple words)

 

You can now search by typing in multiple words, and any thread which has any of the words will show up in the results, sorted by relavence. If you want to search for a whole phrase, use quotes around your search

 

 

 

Updated wordfilter

 

The wordfilter has been updated, making sure everyone is protected from bad language.

Much better that before IMO, but still doesn't match tipit.

Classic bloodveld for lyph3! Although I do like the new ones.

Like a ninja, here I was, gone I am now.

BUT! I may be back! Add my new account, Dr Bloodveld!
