Hi everyone,

We are pleased to announce that we have now introduced a new feature to the forums.

You will now be able to click on a players name from the left hand side of their post, and see a profile screen detailing their activity on our forums. You will also be able to search users from a button towards the top of the screen.

We have discussed this with the F Mods, and the majority agree that this feature, which can be found on most other forums - is long overdue!

We hope that you will find this feature useful and that it will help you with your forum community posting and discussions.

We want everyone to enjoy the forums - and this is just the first step in making the forums even better - by giving you the basic tools you need to be an active community!

We do have some other cool features for the forums in the pipeline, but they will take a bit longer to get up and running. So don't think of this as an update - it's just something we could do fairly quickly and easily to make life for 'forumers' a bit easier!

Don't worry - there are bigger and better things to come - we know all the features you would love to be able to use on the forums - and we can't wait until we get some of those things either!

For now, I hope you enjoy the new profile functionality - we look forward to your comments on this thread!

Thanks,

Steve

==============================================================================

OK - here is the 'rules' bit!

We would like to be clear that this ADDITIONAL feature will be removed from players who abuse the function - and these players will immediately revert to the system of not being able to access other players' forum profiles or search users.

A much needed update, though Sal's still blows it out of the water.

I was hoping for more features than that, but I suppose its progress.
B0b did it

At least you broke Neo's dictatorship rule over Runescape Announcements briefly.

Good to see that they are finally having a good look at those forums. They really do need bringing up to date.

Beware! Beware! Jagex is becoming Socialist!
It starts with this... Taking independent forum features to their forum... Then, they will convert everyone onto the RSOF!
BEWARE! BEWARE!


Cool... Though, I don't use the RSOF a lot...

Actually, Runescape forums is the 2nd biggest public forum in the world already wink.gif

I spend a lot of time mooching around on there, how easy will it be to find random rants from people now?

Yet another reason for spamming now. wub.gif
Still not better than Sals. tongue.gif

They didn't discuss it with me. sad.gif
Or maybe that's because I haven't actually visited the RSOF or gone to any of the meetings in over a month or so.
I fail. bleh.gif

But the forum is filled with idiots. So I'll thank them for the update anyways and not touch it.

Wow, finally. Kinda expected a little more from this though lol. Hopefully soon.

For the sake of sounding stupid, why don't they just get a decent forum software bundle and work with that?

Not really a stupid question. Jagex likes to work pretty much from the ground up- they like to make sure there are no accidental or purposed bugs or cracks in the security. Also, it looks good to make your own forum- makes it look like you know what you're doing even if you don't. tongue.gif
