About this blog

Hi, I'm Mic. I've been an user of Sal's Realm since the creation of the 'new' forums and the early stages of RuneScape 2 as a game.
In this blog I'll be dumping pictures of my old days as a RuneScape player for nostalgic purposes. The goal is to have an entry every day, until I run out of things to post about.

DenialOfService Drama

Welcome to yet another banned member drama entry, for your entertainment. Typically, dealing with trouble-makers can be quite... unpleasant. Sure, sometimes (often) they end up banned, but it's hardly a satisfying result for anyone involved unless there's some very personal stakes at play. Was it nice when players like Macki got their deserved upcoming? Sure, but were we as individuals in a better position than before? Hardly, since one thing trolls / troublemakers were very good at do

99 Magic - Yer a Wizard Mic

Sent from my phone. I had hoped to send a picture of my second 99 - Attack. Unfortunately Sal’s Blogs uploaded refuses to recognize it as an acceptable picture; so I’m instead sending a screenshot of my favorite 99 skill: Magic. Not a very exciting entry, just something neat to have something today.     Most of my PvP/PKing career I was a meleer. Mostly because in F2P melee had the clear advantage, and was the preferable combat method of the masses. However when it

Sal's Stealing Creation + RS3 Castle Wars + RS3 CWW

Important Edit: This will likely be my last entry in a while. Unfortunately yesterday, as I was writing a few more nostalgic blog posts, the forums banned my new IP. This is very frustrating, because while I can access the forums from my phone, I am left with no access to my database of images, screenshots and other important sources of information I like to include in the blog entries, as it’s a pain to transfer them to the phone. It’s also a bit more challenging to write the entries thems

[Drama Episode] Macki

As I've brought up plenty of times in the past, I was an active Sal's user for way over a decade before eventually moving on from RuneScape. I will always be a Sal's member at heart, and as this blog evidences I will likely never stop visiting. All the years spent using Sal's - nearly half of my life - means I've grew up using the community. I've never been perfect, I've been immature, I've caused trouble and I know I wasn't always the easiest to deal with member of the community. One thing I'

Sal's Masses

I honestly don't remember Sal's Masses that much, admittedly they were some of the least interesting events to me. Doesn't mean they weren't fun, because they were, I merely wasn't much of a PvMer and always enjoyed events that made me compete more directly with others, PvP or not. So while Masses were fun, and I didn't do that badly with a maxed acccount, I still felt much like a fish out of water most of the time. Still, great times were had and we did make some fun loot. Edit: Some of th

The Falador Massacre

This entry isn’t the best, but because I’m still IP blocked I can only use my phone to write, and the content I can add is rather limited. 06-06-(20)06 - RuneScape's day of infamy. Or RuneScape's most exciting day. Depends on who you ask. 6-6-6 was the day the Construction party bug took place, and a then rather unknown player - Durial321 - became the stuff of legend. I could explain what happened in my own words, even though most people probably remember the whole thing like it happen

RuneScape Artwork Signatures

Two of my most prized RuneScape related possessions were made here, by two extremely talented women of Sal's Realm: @zellychan and @Cresenne! (I hope I got your tags correct) Both were (and likely still are!) amazing artists, capable of turning into amazing pieces of art anything you requested of them using only their pens and imagination. I've used and abused their amazing gifts here and every other RuneScape forum, ranking as my top used signatures online, anywhere. Words cannot express

King of F2P PvP - Corrupt Drops

A not-so-brief-introduction: Back in the day players who considered themselves "PvPers" (or the most used word: "PKers") were essentially split in two very basic main categories: the F2P PKers, and the P2P PKers. P2P PKing usually involved more risk, as the equipment was more valuable, and weapons more overpowered and dangerous. It made for quick and deadly duels, usually with considerable amounts of gold being gambled. F2P on the other hand was looked down upon by the P2Pers - who consider

99 Woodcutting - My very first noteworthy RuneScape Achievement

The first level 99 I've ever achieved. 99 Woodcutting. I had a small party attended by Sal's members, and an adequately small drop party (for a poor player) to celebrate.  July 24th of 2011 is the earliest date I can find associated to the screenshot, but it could be older considering I began my RuneScape career in 2005. 6 years seems too long for my first 99, so 2011 is possibly the oldest recorded modification to the image.

Sal's Realm Old School Castle Wars - 04/03/2013

Sal's Realm Old School Castle Wars Event Team Santafish Vs Squirtle Squad  Far from the high attendance standards of the Sal's of old, these events hosted roughly a decade ago were the final days of Sal's activity, when we could still pull a small but consistent group of people to attend fun events. This event, an Old School Castle Wars competition between teams Santafish (led by Salmoneus) and it's rivals the Squirtle Squad (led by Micael Fatia) was possibly one of the final few times Sal

The Blog's Banner

As the first entry I'll use a piece of artwork made by @Zooey. Zooey and I didn't know each other that well all things considered, but from my part I can say he was someone I grew to respect a lot and consider a Sal's friend. He was always willing to create cool signatures and avatars for me, without asking for anything or much at all in return. A tremendously nice person and Sal's user to have around. In this one in particular Zooey highlighted my background as Sal's resident F2P PKer/PvPer
