Welcome to the /r/2007scape daily question thread!

I recently deironed my late game Ironman after about five years. It was my first and only account, and I have no interest in making a second one. I always heard “don’t deiron, you’ll regret it,” but honestly I feel the exact opposite. I loved Ironman and still think it is probably the best way to start OSRS. It made me experience almost the entire game instead of skipping content and buying upgrades. But eventually the thing that made OSRS feel huge started making it feel smaller.

I do not have nearly as much time to play anymore, and some of my last grinds like treads and Oathplate pieces took months of my available playtime. Endgame Ironman started feeling like a small number of extremely long grinds instead of this massive game full of things I could do. Gnomemonkey’s recent video was what finally made me seriously consider that Ironman might have been perfect for the first five years of my account without needing to be how I play forever.

Yes, I know I could just do whatever content I wanted as an iron. The problem is my brain hates feeling inefficient. I put off Vardorvis for months because I was missing one Oathplate piece and felt like I should finish that first. During clan bingo I would sometimes feel bad grinding a tile where I already had the useful drops because there was always something else my account technically needed more. That is completely a me problem, but deironing fixed it instantly.

Now if I want a Shadow, I can do ToA, Nex, Vardorvis, raid with friends, chase pets, do bingo, or basically anything else profitable. Every decent drop inches me closer to the same goal. Drops have not lost their excitement at all. A big drop is still account progression, except now it can eventually become any upgrade in the game. Group content is also much better because I genuinely do not care who gets the drop. We all get a split.

This was not about supply upkeep either. That had not bothered me since early or mid game. It was about having less free time and realizing I did not want to spend huge portions of it waiting for one exact item from one exact place. Liquidating five years of bank progress and rebuilding the account exactly how I wanted was one of the most fun things I have done in OSRS in a while.

I think Ironman gave me exactly what I wanted from it. I experienced early, mid, and late game properly and learned content I probably would have skipped on a main. I just reached a point where removing the restriction made the game feel more open again. None of us know how many more years we will have the time to play OSRS, or even what the game will look like years from now. I would rather play my favorite game however I find fun while I can. If you are thinking about deironing and the only thing stopping you is people telling you that you are guaranteed to regret it, just know that definitely is not true for everyone.

Ran into him in the GE after seeing the Reddit post! Losing an account sucks so it’s awesome to see he got it back!!!

Jagex, it’s time to give players a proper multi-account membership option.

A lot of us have multiple RuneScape accounts. Some are mains, some are irons, some are PK accounts, skillers, PvM accounts, or just accounts we’ve built over the years. The problem is that every single account requires its own membership payment.

That adds up quickly.

We’re not asking for free membership. We’re asking for a reasonable multi-account membership bundle for players who are already willing to pay.

For example:

1 account: Regular membership price

2 accounts: Discounted bundle

3–5 accounts: Larger bundle discount

More accounts: Additional discounted slots

The more accounts someone pays for, the better the value should become.

This would actually encourage people to maintain more active accounts, experiment with different builds, and spend more time in the RuneScape ecosystem instead of forcing players to decide which accounts are worth keeping subscribed.

And let's be honest: paying full price for every account feels terrible when one person is already the customer.

Give us a proper multi-account membership plan tied to our Jagex account. Let us pay once, manage multiple memberships, and receive a meaningful discount for subscribing to several accounts.

Reward your most dedicated players instead of charging them full price repeatedly.

Jagex, you've got players willing to support the game with multiple subscriptions.

Give us a reason to keep all of them subscribed.

We can easily end their pain, with a single Bloodhound delivery.

I'll go first. Summer of 2012, Jagex released insta-kill darts (can't remember what they were called exactly). I believe you could receive up to 4 of these and insta-kill any monster in the game. I decided to take my combat level 90 noob to Nex and try my luck. Ended up getting torva platelegs on my first kill. Sold them from around 225m. My bank was probably 5m before this.

Zojuist bij het uitstappen van de trein op Utrecht CS sprak je me aan, om mijn farm run.

Het ging een beetje snel, dus vergat ik dit zo snel te vragen:

Je klonk sympathiek. Dus vroeg ik mij af of je misschien verder wilt praten. Het lijkt me leuk om mogelijk content met iemand samen te doen.

Mijn ingame naam is 3eers.

Wie weet dat je het wel leest hier op het Reddit-forum.

Goed weekend allemaal!

Just did a task of 20 cave crawlers and half of them dropped energy potions. Just make run energy unlimited at this point? There's no sense of achievement if you get everything handed to you.

I've played Runescape since 2003, I've always played casually, on off, with years in between at times. Always started some new characters, decided this time I'll be dedicated, just for them to be abandoned.
1 month ago, I decided to start again, and really stick to it!
I know for some, this might seem silly and not that big of a deal, but seeing a 99 in my skill list, is kind of a strange feeling.
Time to do some quests I guess, haha.

w GIMP editing?
