I have long lamented the loss of web forums to Discord and Reddit, so I did something about it for Rainbow Road. I hope y'all will join. It's a work in progress but I'd like people to start contributing. rainbowro.ad

Yeah I keep reposting my post about the forum, no shame. :P

Because Discord is being so sketchy with the ID/age verification thing, I am actively working toward having some kind of backup of Rainbow Road. Instead of placing all eggs in one basket, I'm leaning toward going old school and having a forum I host myself and using something else for live chat.

the OSRS Pride Zine is out now! this 44-page zine contains original art and writing (both fiction and non-fiction), as well as dozens of comments we collected from lgbtqia+ players about what pride in Runescape means to them. download for free: osrszine.itch.io/osrs-pride-z... #osrs #zine 🌈❤️💐

It just kind of hit me how real Indie Impact 2025 is becoming. We have locked in 4 devs (with 2 more pending) who will be joining us live during the event. The Stonewall Community Foundation is actively supporting our endeavors, and the community reception has been outstanding. Genuinely so excited!

ANNOUNCING Indie Impact! A two-day charity event showcasing wonderful indie games while raising funds for LGBTQAI+ communities! This year, benefiting the Stonewall Community Foundation. Follow @indieimpact.bsky.social to stay up to date and use #IndieImpact2025 to get the word out! More info soon!

Congratulations once again on the first ever #PrideScape FashionScape contest winner, @spaws.via.dog !!! Such a cool character, I had such a good time drawing him ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Thanks again, as well, to @renderscape.bsky.social and everyone at @rainbowro.ad for making the event possible! #osrs

I know we're a few days into July and we didn't get the Pride Event back in OSRS but I am really proud of the community we managed to put together in Rainbow Road. There have been stories of people making amends with others they previously had beef with and that's awesome. I know not all...

Lets get as much turnout for this as we can! This Friday, 3:45 UK time. Be there and be colourful! 🏳️‍🌈 Remember this is about having a presence and not about causing problems so we will be participating in the event as usual, just looking good while doing it ✨

TODAY!

What does Pride in OSRS mean to you? "I take pride in calling Gielinor a forever home-away-from-home," says Strixxline. "Pride in OSRS shows that Jagex takes pride in us too." Tell us your own story here (max 250 words): forms.gle/f5D9V2rVXRMj... Zine Info: osrs-zine.neocities.org

Today in RR I announced this: The Rainbow Guild is a place for LGBTQIA+ folks to do their bankstand skills, just hang out (not that anybody would ever XP waste), and potentially just to serve as a meeting place if you're looking to do some group content together.

I wrote a poem inspired by the pride protests in Old School RuneScape. I'm so proud to be a part of this amazing community. Each and every one of you has such incredible strength and resolve. Going on 18 days and still no sign of slowing down! #OSRS #RuneScape #Pride #Poetry #LoveIsLove

THIS IS TODAY!!!!

Today! Can’t wait to see y’all there 🏳️‍🌈🌈

TOMORROW!!!!!!!!

I don't in any way blame the Devs who published this week's OSRS update post but "A Quiet Week"? A quiet week. Really. A now 10-day 🗓️ long protest 🪧 in-game at the cowardice of Mod North for halting the release of this year's (already developed) Pride 🌈 event. "A Quiet Week", a thread 🧵:

Jagex may think it's been "A Quiet Week" for OSRS, but it certainly hasn't been for us!. We've heard so much love, joy, anger and sadness about this game, and we want to hear even more. Come and add your thoughts to the record in our zine!

Runescape canceled its pride event because of false gamergate claims. No games have been canceled nor studios shut down because they were "woke." You'd only think that if you got all your news from Twitter. A gross and sad result of warped social media reality. www.gamedeveloper.com/business/rep...

We've had an incredible response so far to our survey collecting commments about how it feels to play OSRS as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. 🌈❤️💐 We'd love for you to come and tell us (in max 250 words): What does Pride in OSRS mean to you? forms.gle/f5D9V2rVXRMj...

Render is a big part of why Rainbow Road took off. He and I independently had a similar idea and we decided to try to execute it on it literally the day before the news about North came out. He's a huge ally and we should all be supporting him. Love you buddy.

There is no better exp waste right now in OSRS than being at the Pride 🌈 Protest on w302. Mod North has let down his own staff, his customers, the LGBTQ+ community & it's allies. Especially with an event already mostly through development this *is* cowardice at the highest level of Jagex.
