I can't really put it into words. I played RuneScape from 2001-2004 and 2007-2009, and I lurked RV up until about 2008.


It's hard to believe this is the same website from back then. I remember refreshing the page in any of the RuneScape forums---general, things you'd like to see in runescape, quests, the wilderness, Ways Not To Get Scammed, jokes, all of them ---and always seeing at least a few new posts. I remember the amazing drop parties and community events in RS1.

But what kills me is all the things I can't remember, no matter how hard I try. I can't remember the name of the player (an RV mod?) who got... stuck in the Water Obelisk outside Catherby? I can't remember the name of that one poster who pretended to be a noob and to love bronze armour. I can't remember the poster who collected hundreds of thousands of cabbages. I can't remember if there ever was a RuneVillage newsletter, or if I'm confusing that with a different fansite. I can't remember why RuneVillage makes me think of big noses.

All that's just gone. And it's never coming back.

Also spookspring? Or maybe Mackerel before he started collecting pink skirts. Tooooon? There was a lot of cabbage collecting.

The cabbage person might have been a member of the now-defunct Order of Cabbage. Regulus (formerly known as Gali Finally) was one of them.

I never joined them MM. I just remembered their slogan and went searching for an inventory picture containing copious amounts of cabbages but found that one instead. :P

Now known as TroyMcClure on RS. It definitely was someone from OoC but it could've been Mackerel as well. Sadly, my bank has no more kahbahgees, they've all gone to the grand daddy stash. Which reminds me, I should go on my old e-machines PC and find my cabbage photos...

Lol awesome :D. I think I'm the guy at the far left with the cyan hair or that could easily be Masuma since we had the same hairstyle.
