In case you hadn’t noticed, I’ve been out in North Carolina for the past week or so (hence the lack of updates) in a period of what I can only refer to as not having the internet, at all. But, now that I’m back, it’s time for a quick wrapup of what I should have … Continue reading “What The Hell Happened This Week? Catching Up Edition”
“Thank you to all those of you who took part in the historic RuneScape Referendum, which ended on Friday. We received an incredible 1.2 million votes, with a united 91% of you voting for the restoration of free trade and the Wilderness.

2010, to me, was a bit like entering a shaved watermelon contest. I love watermelon, and I enjoy contests, and there isn’t much I won’t do for the promise of a trophy and perhaps a gift certificate to Denny’s.

Runescape turns ten in 2011, and Jagex wants to roll in the first decade with, and this is just a guess, an overabundance of the number ten. Throughout 2011, Jagex will be rolling the dice and picking lucky winners out of a hat in order to win fabulous cash prizes (real cash, not Jagex bucks). … Continue reading “Celebrate 10 Years of Runescape With 10 Grand”

Then again, if I smash your mailbox with my car because I’m texting while driving, an apology won’t suffice as well. You’ll probably expect me to pay for the mailbox, and won’t be paying for the … Continue reading “Consolation Gifts Are Relative To The Problem.”
I love my 2010 MMO Calendar, so much so that I’m keeping it after 2010 is over this year. For those of you who haven’t participated in the past, the MMO Calendar is a yearly tradition that’s been happening for a few years now, and is essentially a calendar (yes) with a different MMO on … Continue reading “Disappointment: No 2011 MMO Calendar”
Bank it! Here at MMO Fallout, we follow the intuitive systems that various companies use to keep your account secure.
