| 1.12 Christmas is coming! | ||
| The most waited time
of the year is coming! The christmas! Well that doesn't
have to do anything with this update anyway. Well I hve
no improved a bit the security on the item page, that it
can't be copied so easily. If anyone is intrested in the
same method, please e-mail me. I have now also opened a
new section "RuneScape Art" which can be found
in the screen shots section. At the art page is all user
submitted art on this page (if they are not screen
shots). Also now on the newsletter page, there is
submission form, which you can use to join the
Rune-Insane news letter. I wont be propably updating this site for next couple of weeks, except the regular friday update, and some other minor updates, because I'm going to start work on secret project. But do not worry, it is completely related to runescape and this site, but making it will take a lot of time. I hope that I will get it ready for you as a christmas present. Don't forget to enter the contest. You only have 24 days to enter. |
||
| 30.11 Friday update... | ||
| Here is the regular
friday update. The top 25 has been updated with new top.
I know I didn't make my self clear enough, so I changed
the POTW to SOTW (shot of the week). It means that the
picture must be an actual screen shot of the game, not an
edited picture (Your picture was funny Herocombat). But I
will open a new runescape art depository. You cand submit
there any runescape related art, hand drawn pictures,
edited game pictures or somputer made images. They just
must be related to runescape and under 500kb. Note that
it isn't ready yet. I will notify you about it later. Oh...
And because of the popularity on message board, I will be
lookin for new moderator to the board. Check here: |
||
| 25.11 Going mad here! | ||
| Arghhh.... I just
done something I don't want to do ever again. I have
noticed that one site has gained unfair ratings on the
links page so I modified the rating submission a bit. I
built it so that no-one can vote twice... You can't even
imagine how hard it is for me, since I don't a thing
about java (or well I know very little). I spent more
than 2 hours to get it work, and I'm not even sure if it
works now. I sure hope it does. Well anyway, happy
voting... (You can't anymore choose "--- select ---" as an option in the links page selection. It should now give alert about it, when trying to submit it) Oh.. don't forget to enter the contest. And I got new image editor already, so no need to worry. |
||
| 23.11 Some updates | ||
| Since the RuneScape
links was deleted, You can cast your votes on the links
page about the site. The top25 is now updated like I
promised. I will update it every friday, and the all of
the old top25s will be accessable. There are also some
other minor adjusments on the site, but they are too
small to mention here. I also looking for a good image editor. This is because my last image editor I was using stopped working, and I have no idea why. Anyway, I need a new image editor, and if anybody knows one, please post on following topic: http://pub92.ezboard.com/frunescapehallfrm12.showMessage?topicID=2.topic Oh, and because no-one send me any POTWs I have to get myself some bore looking ones, because I have to get one, but I don't have time to look for good POTW. |
||
| 22.11 Hall of fame... | ||
| Well... Um... This
bothers me to say, but Links page is back to orginal
links page. It's nothing but links page now. So submit
your link there. Should I close it or not? There is now auto-updating top 1000 service on the RuneScape homepage, so it makes the top on my site pretty useless... Well maybe I wont close it just yet. Maybe I keep it up, and update it regulary every friday. Hmm.. Actually... I could start keeping up the history of the top 25.. like update it every friday, but keep the ld ones in store, so that people could see some old tops too. Well tell me what you think about it on the RuneScape hall forum. NOTE: I will update the top on tomorrow, not yet today, Since I don't have any time curently. Also, If anyone contacts me for some reason I have mentioned not to contact me (see the contact page), I will instantly delete the message from my e-mail box, and you will never get reply. I also suggest that you people post most of your things on the board. I can tell you that I answer more on the messages on the board, than on my mail. People, enter the contest please. I eexpecting more entries than the current amount to my contest. I need a good avatar you know! And I'm desperate. (If I get a good avatar, this news page will change to bit better looking). Well the deadline is 24.12, so no need to hurry yet :) Oh.. And more thing. I'm working on new smithing guide, it should be ready on next week, or month. I have already updated the part I have done already. You can find the smithing guide in guides. |
||
| 19.11 Contest on RuneScape Hall | ||
| Okay, this is a bit
odd contest, but this is something that should maybe help
some newbies (and maybe older players too). What you must
do is to draw me an avatar (Everyone knows what is
avatar, right? if not see below) which should be 60 x 60
(but should look good in 50 x 50 and 30 x 30) and draw me
a personal icon which should be 10 x 10. I have already
picked the theme for the pictures. The avatar should be a
male elf wearing a green robe (hood should cover the
neck, and be visible on the avatar). The elf should be
quiet young (not old I mean, but some kind of adult), if
you want, you can draw black hair for him. It should be
very much like my current
one. The personal icon should have some kind of
greenish theme. The one who sent the best looking avatar will win the price. Note that I will use that avatar whuch won on the boards and on some other places. This contest will end 24.12 (you can still send your avatars on that day). Winner of this contest will win 4'000 gold pieces and full iron set (which includes battle axe, plate leggings, plate mail, large helmet and kite shield). The price will propably grow later, if I get a lot of entries. To enter the contest, just send me those pictures in e-mail to [email protected]. If you want skirt instead of leggins and female plate instead of normal plate, you should notify me in the entering e-mail. If you win the contest, you will be notified to the address where you sent the entering mail. ps. I also changed the poll, so vote in it! |
||
| 16.11: New top 25 | ||
| Now there is a
quality top 25 runescape sites site out there. You don't
even have to vote for me. It automatically checks every
visitor on the site. Also, I would like to thank the
person who sent me the first user sent POTW. At least
there is some active visitors ou there :) I'm also
pleased by the amount of visitors and posts on the board
lately. Keep up the good work :). On the site updates, I have done little change on the feedback form, it should now work a lot better on all browsers. It now uses this servers default mail service, which is sent a bit differently. Also, our dear friend Blade Sabre has made a donation of 13 item pics including rare quest items like arrav shield pieces (shield of arrav quest) and faladian knight's sword (sword quest). As you can see, the top things are at the frame where logo is. |
||
| 11.11: This isn't an update... | ||
| I just love those
days when runescape is down. I brings a lot people to
this site. I would like thank every one who visited this
site yesterday,because I got 1128 hits
yesterday. (the counter wont count same IP twice). I have
never got that many hits in day, and the vurrent average
is about 220 visitors each day. So just thanks for every
one who visited. I didn't mention it yesterday, but I done some very little updating on this site. You can now submit your own articles to RuneScape Hall. I would also like, if you could send me POTW pictures. They don't really have to be anything great. Just send me a good looking picture with a comment. Best one will be chosen as POTW. |
||
| 9.11: Maybe you have noticed... | ||
| I have updated
RuneScape hall a bit. Now runescape hall, has POTW on the
main page, wich I try to update once a week (every friday
I think). There is also new links page, which you should
definetly check out (it is actually a sub site) That's
about all I have updated for now. And as always, If you have runescape related questions, ask them on the board, because it is much bigger change, that your question will be answered there, than anywhere else. Oh... and don't forget to Vote for this site! Top 50 Sites |
||
| 13.10: Break from runescape... | ||
| As you might have
noticed, I haven't updated runescape hall in the last
month. I have taken a break from playing runescape and
creating this site. This is not the end of this site, and
it prolly wont ever go down, but there might not be any
updates in near future. I'm not yet sure, but after I get back my other computer back from repairs, I might start doing this site again, but I wont promise anything. Even though this site is not alive, I'm not dead, which means you can still send me e-mail about runescape, although I would like it more, if you would post the messages on the message board, so that others might reply to your questions as well. Even though the site is not updated, I try to keep RuneScape news page up to date, and the top 10 players. |
||
| 14.9: RuneScape is currently down... and new forum. | ||
| If you haven't yet
noticed, RuneScape seems to be down at the moment. I have
no idea why, but if you would like to know more about
this, then I suggest to visit other RuneScape sites, and
their boards, if there are any news about this. There is also a new forum here on RuneScape Hall. I think it is much better than the bravenet one. This one is ezboard. So hope you like it. |
||
| 12.9: Terrible thing have happened | ||
| These are the most
unfortunate thing that could ever happen. Terrorists have
attacked WTC (World Trade Center) and Pentagon. This is
really terrible, because thousands of innocent lives have
been lost. I know that every one already knows about
this, but I just felt that I must show my deepest
sympathy to all those families, and people who have lost
their lives or some one very close. Even though I'm from
Finland, this is very touching news. I just can hope that USA is reasonable enough to not start a big war, if it finds out to be a country helping those terrorists. If you would like to know more details, visit player's guide to runescape or flamingtext |
||
| 25.8: Screen shot day. | ||
| Today I have added
couple of screen shots to the screen shots page. It now
has total of 17 screen shots, which is much more than
what any other site has. (the board is now much better
and faster, so use it!) BTW, Arcanum wont be released until 31st of august, so I still have to wait for it, which means more time for the site =P. |
||
| 21.8: Wilderness mapping goes on and on. | ||
| Another row of
wilderness has been added. Now the map reaches up to the
level 18. I have added today a new poll, so be sure to vote in it. I have also changed the chat and board to bravenet services, because no body used the old ones. They will are temporary, but they will stay until I find a host for YaBB gold board, and I find some good irc client and manage to understant something about bots. Well okay, The map of wilderness hasn't changed a bit, but instead I have mapped another mining site from the wilderness. It's somewhere on level 9 and it has about 27 coal rocks! The only drawback, is that the mine is quarded by 25 level skeletons, but if you are high leveled enough, it is only a good thing, because you can train your fighting skills with them while mining, you can train your prayer by burying their bones and best of all, you can gain money up to 50gp from one skeleton (they usually drop gold around 15gp), and... off course, people can always PK you there. BTW, Sad thing has just happened to me. My character died the first time in this game. I will never forget the guy who PKed me while I was mapping wilderness... (actually I already forgot his name =P ). The mapping of wilderness is slow, because people try to PK me there. I would really apreciate, that you few people who know who I am, please don't kill me if I'm in wilderness, because if I'm in wilderness, it means I'm mapping it, and the less you try to PK me, the more will be mapped. Those who care, I already completed Deus Ex, so I got more time on this site, until I get my hands on Arcanum, then I will take a brake from runescape again =P, until I have completed Arcanum. |
||
| 20.8: Something new for a change. | ||
| Today I have added
something new to this site. I have added a map for the
tiny mine in wilderness (3 rocks) and part of the
wilderness map which is ready (about 8-10 levels). That
map reveals only a small part which is not shown in
orginal world map. The wilderness map is still under
heavy construction, and I haven't even edited those
yellow, white and red dots away. I have also made a new
smithing guide. I don't know if I ever get that wilderness map ready, because when the levels rise, there will be more and more harder enemies out there. At least I will try to make the map up to 20 level. |
||
| 19.8: This site is not dead... | ||
| As some of you might think, this site is not dead. I just haven't updated it too much lately. There are couple of reasons for that. but soon I will get back to the updating. The reasons why I haven't updated are that I haven't had the effort to do so, I have been playing Deus Ex (which I'm almost finished) and worst of all.. my school has started. Anyway, when I complete Deus Ex, I will once again get very active with this site, so there should be alot of updates after a week or so. When I start updating this site again, I will make map of the whole wilderness area! And a new poll asking opinions about wilderness, so after a week, check back for those. | ||
| 1.8: New look! | ||
| RuneScape Hall has
gained whole new futuristic look. I was inspired by
Player's guide to RuneScape's look change and I wanted to
do it too. So here is my whole new look. Hope you like
it, and I hope it works fine. There has also been a lot of other minor updates on numerous pages. Andrew has been even enough kind and updated the Top25 list. I have also finally updated prayers to the spell book. I have also improved the quality of the picture of some items, because they are pretty blurry, but I only improved a couple of items (about 20), and it will take a hell lot of time to improve them all, because I have to retake the pictures. I wan't able to get a new board for the new look's release, but as soon as I can get an free account from F2S, I will make a whole new board, which is very much same as the board in Player's guide to runescape. I might also get a better chat room. |
