12th November 2003 - Forum Updates

We're about to restart the forums, so you won't be able to access any forum pages for a few minutes while the system reboots.
A number of bugs and issues highlighted have been fixed. These include:


The back links on the message page now takes you back to the appropriate page, rather than the first page of the forum

Capitalisation problems with chat filter fixed

A number of improvements have been made to the chat filter to reduce unnecessary censorship

Posting to a thread that has just been deleted now gives a clearer error message

Added page indicators which tell you how many pages long a message thread is
Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions made so far concerning the forums. We do value your help with this beta, and are reading your comments. Expect quite a few updates to the forums over the next few weeks, and don't worry, this is not impacting the release date of RS2. The forums, and the whole runescape.com website are developed by a different team to that working on RS2. In fact this beta is helping by testing some of the new architecture and code libraries used in RS2.

The Jagex Web Team.



11th November 2003 - Forum Beta Launched!

We are very pleased to announce that our Official RuneScape Forums are now available for beta-testing by our members.
We have decided to restrict the forum beta to members only so that the forums can be tested with a limited number of users. We expect that the forum beta will last at least one month, but we will aim to offer full access to everyone as soon as possible.

RuneScape Members can log-in and help us test our new forums from the Forums link on our main page.

Please DO NOT send in customer support queries regarding the forums. Members can provide feedback directly on the forums via a forum post in the feedback forum. Non members - please be patient and keep your eyes on the news and updates section for forum related news.
