    In their email, Jagex management also told staff: “[…] Our job is not to use the game as an outlet for our own views, but to craft worlds that serve our players, offering immersion, escape and meaning.

    Well, isn’t that some of the best BS contortionist corpospeak I’ve seen in some time…

    So Jagex wants to avoid controversy…by creating a bigger controversy? Genius move from the new “CEO”. As always, the executive class is insane.

    Whaaaaa? Shame on them especially since they had events going. Would have been easier to just not have any events if you were going to cancel in like ten days

    Oh so we’re going back to our roots with this one, a riot in Falador it is then.
