Note by me: Sal's Blogs restrictions aren't allowing me to paste the text. Probably some of it's content, a word or even a character conflicts with the text editor, and does not allow me to save the entry. I found a solution by screenshotting the text, and attaching it as images. My apologies for the inconvenience.

The History of Runescape Clans
Collected by TimmyMWD
With help from King Sabre, Zei, Osiris BK, and Militant for the first draft of this history
This collection was made on the bidding of the noblest lord of the BlacKnights Osiris Bk, and the noblest ruler of the Sabres, King Sabre. This is the history of our fair and just clans that have ascended to power and then crumbled, of the Golden Age of the clans and the decayed state we are in now. The clans are a dying group, but their h
Yes, I apologize for speaking about another "rival" fan-site on this forum, but I thought I would post anyway. A little Sunday sacrilege is fit anywhere.
As you all know by now, the traditional RuneScape fan-sites started to "die" sometime around 2010 or even earlier. I will not speculate on the reasons, but it happened with every site and every community, all of which were forum-based. New players stopped joining, current users stopped playing the game, and eventually people started going
As of today, Danbridge has racked up over 43 million XP in fletching alone. That makes him a level 111 fletcher. He has fletched over 700k rune arrows from scratch. All sold to general Khazard in the gnome war. He also sells cannonballs to Gloughprie's army. He fuels both sides of the war for sheer profit. Hickton could not be happier with the massive sales volume Danbridge produces. The population of Gielinor is over 300 million. And only 23k players are ahead of Danbridge on fletching high sco
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
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
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
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'
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

GAMERS RISE UP
Close to a decade working in esports, tech, and gaming has poisoned my sense of humor. I mean it. I am gamerpilled. I am based and epic. I tips m'fedora to the unsung gentleman gamer upon whom society has thoughtlessly lashed that yoke of wokeism.
If you were to firmly tap my head with a hammer, you could pull my skull apart to find a jumble of Gamers Rise Up / We Live in a Society / Gamer Joker memes.
Not familiar? Sc
Just wrapped up a wonderful week with @Twist of Fate (Taker25700). We visited the Great Lakes area together. Among usual tourist activities, we found some time to relax and play RS. I'll spare the mushy details, but did want to share some reflections on the power of online communities, and the bonds they create.
I've been part of online communities my whole life. In the years that most of you were making content for Sal's, I was pouring my heart and soul into another forum site called RoleP
Well, that is one more game for the list.
(Warning: Some spoilers can be found within.)
Ah, Elden Ring. While the game might have gotten a ton of Game of the Year awards, I end up feeling deceived by everyone who recommended me to play the game.
I was promised many things about FromSoftware’s latest game, but as someone who stayed away from reading about the game, I knew precious little about the game before I booted it up. I think my knowledge was “Mi
Hi everyone!
Been getting back into RS lately. I may even decide to start over with a new account.
Anyways, I've been feeling real nostalgic from the good ol' days with ya'll, as I'm turning 30 in a couple months. Strange to look back at all the history and memories we made here through our computer screens. It's safe to say RS was more than a game for us. I mean, we're here on a help site, formed a clan, had events, celebrated achievements together, kept each other entertained for h
I had to make one of the most difficult decisions of my life on Wednesday. My 5 year old cat, Charlie, had been experiencing recurring health issues that would have required multiple invasive surgeries with a decent likelihood of complications and no guarantee they'd help.
Even so I desperately wanted to help him. Charlie was my boy. Anyone who knows me knows how much I desperately love my cats, and Charlie was the heart of our household. He was
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
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
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
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 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
