TruthScape Articles Index

Introduction

What is TSA?

TruthScape Articles (TSA) is a culmination of well-written articles written by none other than the members of this community. A new article is released every week from an author who wishes to voice his opinions on a particular matter. The TSA has been created to enhance the quality of debating as well as improving the author's ability to word himself better. And of course, making the reader aware of many issues concerning RuneScape.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I get my article published?

- PM me the article along with some information about yourself (for "About the Author"). If you want, you can also include an interesting fact but it isn't mandatory.

Q: How come my article wasn't put up despite me PMing it you?

- If I receive 2 articles in the same week, the article with more discussion value will be put up. That in no way means the article you have written is worse. It will be taken into contention for the following week's publication.:)

Any chance the banner could be made narrower? I'm on 1024x768 resolution and it causes sideways scrolling on the posts. 800x600 is still pretty common too (though 640x480 has pretty much died now).

ppl still use 640x480!?!?! im retty sure that 800x600 is beining to wane awfuly fast. i agree it needs to be narrowed I rarely put my browser at full screen so making the banner confrom to 800x600 would be best

People, I'm running out of articles! :oops:

I hope we won't have to face such a scarcity so early into this.

I'll also try to update the banner (s) as soon as I get some time and work out where I made them from :P

Thanks..

can you do the titles of the articles as links? It makes it faster to get to the article your looking for.

I won't be writing another one until Jagex releases an update that can actually be called an update. My patience has finally run thin- though I was, at first, content with the meager updates in January, the last update that had any meat to it at all was WGS and FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I NEED AN UPDATE.

Please refer to "But I Don't PK" for my feelings on this. :wink:

I'm about 3 days away from doing the 2-week quit thing. It was always my plan to take full advantage of the 2-week leniency they give you to retain your $5/month rate and only pay for 30 out of every 44 days for as long as I could stomach it. I think it's time to begin that process.

BTW, you know it's getting pretty bad when even our community's most prolific PVPer is starved for an update. :lol:

So each time you cancel and resubscribe, you save about $2.50? Is that really worth the trouble? And are you sure you're going to remember to do it on time? =P

If I was going for an intermittent subscription, I'd give up the old-member discount and do something like 1 month on, 3 months off.
