Let's just say that the theme of February is "a forum based around Runescape"

The majority of RV doesn't even play Runescape anymore, mate. A lot of us just stick around here because of the friends we've made.

Actually that's not true... Most RV'ers still play RuneScape, but not as often as they used to do.
It's true though, there are a lot of Villagers who no longer play the game but just enjoy visiting our forum talking about other stuff.

Key word: based.

Themed weeks would be better than days, less people would miss them.

I don't remember this "Pink Month" or this "Riot" that occured over it.

I'm guessing people just hated 'pink', and left?

Well, many of us used pink, and a lot of normal users joined in as well. Many users found the color blinding and revolted, ending in a quick finish to the month, and a temporary ban of using colors.

As harsh as it sounds, it was only successful when it was bound to the legends forum. After that, themed months became an epic failure.

Theres a certain mood in the legends forum.

Sadly, us Legends are a lazy bunch. Maybe we should try to think up something new...surprises are always nice.

Yes! Yes, that's the one.

Insanity is the only thing that can produce things as bizarre as pink month and subway month. But it's true, we have goten lazy. Also, it just started to feel like an obligation.

So, I take it, themed months are back again? Super Star Sign Month or whatever?

Please God, don't let the idiots ruin it again, I like it.

Says the man who came up with the greatness that was Subway Month. I think you should be the one coming up with the month themes, not me. :shifty:

Glad to know it's liked. xD Thank Mack for the month theme. We're getting a good turnout in participation, so I don't think there'll be any ruining of it. :P
