Hello everybody and welcome to the first official post of The Runescape Blog.

To kick things off I will introduce myself, my parter and the communities that make this blog happen :).

Firstly you can call me 11. I’m a Runescape player and I have been since 2002. I enjoy many of the aspects of the game and i find that the most pleasurable part is definitely partaking in player vs player battles. If you want to know more about me, then ask!

Secondly, I would like to introduce my partner, Soul, he is a coding genius and very competent on the internet hehe. His servers will be hosting The RuneScape Blog and he will also be taking care of the site.

Thirdly, I would like to acknowledge the two online communities that have given Soul and I this chance to fund and publish this blog:

• RuneSociety
• RuneCrypt

Both of these wonderful communities have contributed time and effort into getting this blog up and running!

Now I bet you’re wondering what this blog is going to focus on… well listen up!

The Runescape Blog is going to focus on everything Runescape! (der. I hear you say) Well it’s more interesting than that… we strive to provide you with ideas and opinions that are original and interesting to read and we hope that you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoy writing them.

Before I finish i would like to say that if you have any queries, ideas, or just want to chat then you can drop us an email at: rsblog@runesociety.com

So in conclusion I would like to say: Get ready for a big 2008, RuneScape Blogging has never looked this good
