    Just thought I add something for all those new to RuneScape, have thought about playing it, or would just like to know more. Currently Jagex has four released versions of the game. RS3, OSRS, CRS, and DS. You can use your same account information to login to each of the games, but your skills, money, etc. wont be transferred to the other versions so in sort your starting fresh in each version. I'll explain a little bit about each below:

    RuneScape (RS3) - The current version of the game that has been updated throughout the years. Most populated, Evolution of Combat (skill bars, hot keys, the typical MMO set up), also has Legacy Mode (traditional RS combat). Member skills are unlocked, but your only able to level them up to level 5 (this is just to show/teach you what the skills are, it's a tease).

    Old School RuneScape (OSRS) - This version is the 07' version. It has its own custom content (Zeah).

    Classic RuneScape (CRS) - The first version of RS, not much I can say here personally as I started playing in 04' (RS2).

    DarkScape (DS) - Similar to RS3 with the addition of being able to PK anywhere, Legacy Mode is always active (07' combat), and has all of its member content open for F2P. Paying membership grants bonus xp, double bank space, and lets you keep an extra item upon death. Relatively new. To say the least, things are quite different in DS compared to RS3. Be prepared if your coming from OSRS, and RS3. Additional info here. -- Closed on March 28, 2016.

    RuneScape Chronicles: RuneScape with cards, seems like a very interesting concept, you character (Hero/Legend) goes on an adventure using cards. If you have played or looked into the physical card game Boss Monster it is similar to this. I haven't looking into this as much because I'm awaiting beta access (fingers crossed for that email).

    If I'm missing anything or anyone would like to add anything feel free.

    Bonus: Eldevin is a similar game to RS, if your looking for something a little different with a similar style to RS.

    DarkScape has been closed, it's a shame I enjoyed it the most.

    Indeed, it is good to see you again, Rantzr.

    I think we have a few in chat who are playing RuneScape these days as well:).

    Hiya Ogreman.

    I've seen some of the chatter, had to drop my sub though. Just got beta access to RuneScape Idle Adventures, it's a good time waster lol.

    Whether you play RS actively or not you're still welcome in the clan we finally made.

    I'd love to join, just need a little bit of time to get better internet. Currently running at 1 Mbps, can't really play much atm.

    It's definitely a good time killer lol, enjoyed my three hours of playing it off and on.

    I am thinking about trying Runescape again and possibly streaming it lol. Does it still do well on older systems?

    I ran it on a $100 Windows Tablet with just intel integrated graphics so I'm gonna go with it should work. Try NXT first, if you can't get that running well at any level then try the java client.

    Download RuneScape
