A while back, in the "good ol' days" of Runescape, Thordur the dwarf sold disks to players. The disks, called Disks of Returning, were used to return from the black hole. Since I was not playing Runescape at the time, I was wondering If anyone has any pictures of what the black hole looked like, or just even what Thordur looked like. Thanks. :D

 

 

 

Written descriptions are good too!

I think the hole was just like the black area at the end of where you can see with a low angle camera view, except it was all around you. All you could really see was the characters that were in there.

Right, but where there banned characters in there, just standing there, logged in, unable to do anything else? Could you walk around? Was it common to run into banned people, or others that were visiting?

I actually had a pic before my hard drive crashed, I was laughing at my friend who got sent there :P then I dropped the disk of returning.

um, picture going into an upstairs room. Now picture the black space there that's outside of the room. now picture people there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There ya go! \

i'd love to see a pic of it too, probably extremely hard to find some1 with it though....

To the topic poster :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The black hole was just a black area of the map (that you see when going near borders)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You were teleported in it and couldnt move anywhere, nothing to see either.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spinning the disk simply teleported you back to the mapped area.

Apparently, some people who entered the black hole were tricked into dropping their disk of returning, thus leaving them stuck there forever. :XD:

Pretty sure that was the reason why they got rid of it.

ya I would realy like to see a picture of it maybe ask jagex to post pictures for historical purpose's

I know what being in a black space is like, as I've been in it as a glitch. However, could you see people in it, or talk to others in it? Could you see banned characters stuck there?

Oh I'd love to see a picture, but I guess it's impossible. Don't think anyone got one. Sure hope someone does.

You could see and talk to other characters that were doing the black hole experience. So, only people that had bought a disk and took the ride. You could not walk anywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A banned person was placed in an empty area away from the black hole , so you could not see, or talk to them.

 

 

 

(it's not a punishment if you can talk to people)

I'd love to see some pictures of it, probably nobody has got one as it was quite a while back.

Thanks for clearing that up. Now I'll sit back and wait for a pack rat who never deletes his/her images :D .

Impossible? Nah, somebody has it probably doesn't wanna show it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slamming a revolving door is impossible.

there was early black holes where you was able to walk..some ppl might remember my story of it when i was put there for punishment but i got to escape from there in same day because i was able to walk by clicking minimap in black area and found falador where nearly same level player was able to kill me with bow and i got out to lumby.

I had some awesome RSC pics, but it got deleted when my computer crashed. I didn't have a pic of the black hole thing, though.

Wait, could you buy an extra disk of returning and give it to a banned person?

you couldnt trade to them or follow etc. i think they had an examine info for chars in there, i think it might have been "*username here* is here as punishment or sumthing myabe ill hunt the web for a black hole image...

i think it was that real black hole was in other coords and experiment was in other coords...and i think if you were stuck in fake black hole, you was able to ask friend come there to trade you disk or tele runes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i was in blackhole first, forced by moderator...then invited by moderator and then just for fun with friend...so 3 times total.

No, banned people were not in the black hole experience, so you couldn't see them. You could only see normal players that took the trip, and yes you could trade them. Many people had to make noob accounts to get out after they lost their disk.

It would be good to see it, but what an origional way of banning people, I must say.

Not my web site, ok? This is an old pic of the black hole which was originally used as punishment or perm ban of players. People got so curious about it that they made chars just to abuse rules and get banned so they could see the black hole so Jagex made the black hole experience so that people could see it without getting into a lot of trouble. I used it back in the day for taking stat pics, it was good for screenies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

yay! finally a pic, i no it's just black but i still like to see it!
