November 11, 200619 yr As many of you know, you can no longer search the archive.org for http://www.runescape.com because it has been blocked. However, I remembered RS also used to run on parallel domains, such as runescape.org. 8-) A completely working copy from 2002 is at http://web.archive.org/web/200207050714 ... scape.html and even the hiscores work. :shock: Wow, not even one person had 99 in HP back then, highest was 95 by Zonghui. Can you find yourself or your friend or notice anything strange? I found my character on the fighting hiscore on position 1104. 8-) Also, the news are entertaining to read. Haha, "we have just released the fishing guild". Top prayer is 77 (but there appears to be a bug or a hacker with 237), and Snake Slava is still 8 levels away from being the first person to 99 ranged. Nobody is even near to 99 herblaw. Also, on runescape.co.uk, another parallel domain, there's an old news article by Andrew: http://web.archive.org/web/200209171038 ... scape.html Latest RuneScape News - 18th July 2002 I went away for a short holiday on saturday, and it seems Runescape promptly broke in my absence. It seems I can't even take 1 week a year away from running this game! I'd like to apologise for the people who have experienced connections problems over the last few days. I've decided to abort the remainder of my holiday and have come back to the office to fix RuneScape instead. I'm currently transfering the database to a new server which is 6 times faster than the old one which should hopefully get things running smoothly again. Once again sorry things weren't working 100%. Now I'm back at work I should be able to get it working smoothly fairly quickly. Andrew Andrew really had to go through lots of crap to get runescape to where it is today.
November 11, 200619 yr I can remeber runescape.co.uk I used to only go on that site before i found it at .com as well, I don't know why though :-k EDIT-Yay first post \ http://custom.leetscape.com/sig/63/70/combat.png[/img]You just won the award for "The Most niave person on the Tip.it Boards!"]*Points towards the monkey sitting on the button and declining every query*Help me No.
November 11, 200619 yr Yeah Andrew makes tons of money but he has to work really hard to get it. If he was lazy, runescape would not been here now.
