Hello fellow Rune Gear and Rune Revolution users!

Today, I will be providing you with all the information you need to become high quality, and more respected member on Rune Gear.


First off, as a new member, you need to know that there are certain rules and regulations that you will have to follow. These rules can be found here.

Some of these RULES include the following:

Rules:

1. No spamming posts. All posts must be of high quality.
2. Game hacking/cracking software is allowed.
3. No infected links may be posted
4. Scamming Rune Gear members is not tolerated.
5. Signature links must not contain competing websites and or forums. (Any game sites)
6. Any warez released must not defy any member's intellectual property.
7. Any tutorials must contain a link-back to the source of discovery.


Basic Etiquette:

1. Flaming members is not allowed.
2. Threats against members are not allowed.
3. Threads discussing other members negatively will not be tolerated.


How to navigate around the forum easier

Since Rune Gear is a big community, and has a lot of threads and posts, you can use the search bar to cut down on less spam. Say you have a question for example, instead of making a new thread or private messaging the staff, you can use the search bar to find your question. With the search bar, you can search for the following…
- Entire post
- Thread titles only
- Specific members


Since this community is large, there are search options to help you find what you need; these options may include…
- Finding threads with a certain number of replies
- Finding posts with a certain requested date time
- Sorting your results by either; last postdate, by the author, or by the specific forum it is in.


Rune Gear Announcements

An easy way to find out major events for Rune Gear, like a database update or a hosting change, or other important announcements, is by visiting the announcements section, which can be found here. This is the most important section of Rune Gear. Everything that is happening on this forum, goes here.

Sections on Rune Gear

There are six main tabs on Rune Gear. These tabs help to better organize the placement of each forum. These six tabs are
- General
- Runescape
- Runescape Hacking
- Miscellaneous
- Private
- Marketplace



Inside these sections are various forums pertaining to the topic.

Forum Statistics

Maybe you’re curious about how Rune Gear is doing in general. You can find out a lot of things here. For example…
- Percentage or posts per day
- Percentage of members who have posted
- Popular threads. (Most replied to, and most viewed


You can find the board statistics here.

Forum Team

Maybe you’re just starting out here, and you have no idea who the admins or staff is. No problem, Rune Gear has made a special section that shows you the following…
- Admins
- Staff
- Sectional Moderators

The forum team page can be located here.

Nudges

The nudge system makes it so much easier to find out if someone has replied to your thread(s), or maybe have quoted or tagged you in a post. It’s basically a notification system that allows you to keep track of your threads, and posts that you were tagged in.

The Nudge system can be found here.

Now that you have a good understanding of the rules and how to navigate the forums, I bet you’re wondering, "How can I support Rune Gear?” Well, I'll tell you.

Yeah, I'd be more than happy to add some things about that. I'm always open to suggestions, Mike. I can't get on my laptop till Monday though, so I'll do it then.
Thanks for the feedback by the way guys.
 
"These rules can be found Here."
It should be a lower case h.

""How can I support RuneGear"?"
The question mark should be inside the speech marks.

"The benefites for RG Elite include:"
It's spelt 'benefits' and it should be 'of' instead of 'for'

"Access to private RG Elite forum, many releases and exclusive discussion."
I believe you missed 'with' before 'many releases'

"The benefites for RG Sponsor include:"
Again, benefits is spelt incorrectly and it should be of instead of for.




Might want to fix those, but overall a good tutorial.
+4 from me young one.
 



Yes, thank you for pointing out those errors, I will gladly fix them tomorrow when I can get on my laptop. I'll PM you when I'm done.

@"The Elite"
