RuneLocus - The RuneScape Private Server Resource and Community

Welcome to RuneLocus

Did you know...

The random event where the Mysterious Old Man gives you a box asking what shape a number is on (or vice versa), previously asked for a color?
Jagex realised that this caused complications for color blind people and changed it to the way it is today.
Show/hide all facts

All Facts:

1	Skeletons carry coins, but where do they keep them?



2	Most places and/or people (Npcs) in runescape names are somewhat a joke. Example: Sir Amik Varse = Ceramic Vase



3	When you search a haystack, the needle can do 1 damage to you.



4	The actual world of RuneScape is called Gielinor?



5	No matter how much food you eat, your belly will never be full.



6	A large amount of people confessed to believing the game was named Run Escape or Rune Escape, and not RuneScape.



7	Players with Ancients Magic find it very hard to teleport around Runescape, this is why Teletabs were created.



8	All weapons have a golden handle except the dragon weapons, which has a dull rock like color.



9	When you use raw herring on a tree, it says “This is not the mightiest tree in the forest.”



10	Half of the girls in runescape are boys in real life.



11	Magic and arrows follow you if you run.



12	If you die with plate legs and plate skirt, you keep the skirt.



13	When you eat cabbage, it says “you ate a cabbage, Yuck!” When you eat a lot of it, it starts to taste better.



14	The maximum level of a skill on RuneScape is 99, but you are only half way at level 92?



15	The random event where the Mysterious Old Man gives you a box asking what shape a number is on (or vice versa), previously asked for a color? Jagex realised that this caused complications for color blind people and changed it to the way it is today.



16	The "Rune" in "RuneScape" does not refer to the metal, but to the magical runes. The Rune metal was not available when RuneScape was first released.



17	The RuneLocus forums are very active and has far more then 100,000 posts all related to RuneScape private servers, online games and general discussion? Take a look at them by clicking here!



18	RuneLocus exists one year since 23 September?



19	RuneLocus has been partners with the biggest private servers that ever existed?



20	You can use the RuneLocus chatbox to talk with other RuneLocus members, ask for assistance and even advertise your server?



21	RuneLocus has been created to test the moderation talents of Tico135, but RuneLocus grew too fast, and we couldn't just stop it anymore?



22	Private servers had the summoning skill before RuneScape had it?



23	RuneLocus has around one million hits per day?



24	The main reason free players aren't permitted to use RuneScape in fullscreen yet is that there is currently no way to show the advertisements in fullscreen mode?

RuneLocus needs suggestions!

Posted by God of Ikiliki

Hello everybody,

Do you want RuneLocus to have new original updates and features, and do you have your own idea?
It is possible to submit this idea to us, and we might start developing this for RuneLocus!

Please use the form at this page.

Oh and please...do not send us ideas hinting to making an official RuneLocus server. This will not happen.

Thank you

The NEW Status Page

Posted by God of Ikiliki

Many people have been waiting till this day... the release of the new status page. The old one was getting old and was removed during some technical issues with the server, so we decided to make a new status page, and you can find the results of that on the new Status Page.
We have of course added the old features we used to have on the older status pages, but also made a few more to make it easier to browse and use the status page.
On the old status page many people did not see any point in gaining votes on the status page because it would not bring you to the top of the status page if you have the most votes unless your uptime was 100%.
To forcome this, we have now added an award system on the status page, if you have 100 votes you will have one star, 200 votes two stars and 300 votes three stars.
We have also developed a new system called "Vote Exchange" in the Server Control Panel, with this feature you will be able to exchange some of your server votes to uptime, lets say your server has 10 votes and 90% uptime, you can now exchange your 10 votes for 10% uptime, so you will have 100% uptime and ranked higher on the status page, but you will have 0 votes again.

Of course we did not forget our old Client-only feature, where you are able to hide your IP address and port if your server requires a custom client, and where you will be able to add your client link and details in the details page.

We are now making you able to have your own IRC chatbox for your server, by clicking on "Click" in the details field, you cannot miss it. (For site owners; please read the information on how to register your own chat, so you can manage the users in it.)
But that's not everything, we have also added a Edit Password page on the Server Control Panel where you can edit your password, please remind your password or write/save it somewhere, none of the RuneLocus staff members (including moderators and administrators) are able to view your password, which is being encrypted into the database.
We can only edit your password if you have enough proof that you are the actual owner.

Please be aware that the status page will not be as full as usual this week because it is restarting again.
You can expect many more servers in the upcoming week(s).
If you did not find any server you're wanting to visit yet, we'd like to advise you our forum or Top List.

Staff Promotions

Posted by God of Ikiliki

After a month, or maybe even a bit more, Tico135 and I are done discussing about the current staff team.
After we lost a few staff members there was a serious need of a bigger staff team.
Therefore I'm not going to make you wait longer, here is the new staff list.

Global Moderators
Sync` (Has a few more abilities then the other Global Moderators, such as moderating signatures and Social Groups.)
Toonshorty
Hippie

Junior Global Moderators
Alley
Matty
Sick`

In the past weeks there might ever come a little change into this if there's coming something bad out of this, but for now we should be happy with these new moderators.

Homepage Updates

Posted by God of Ikiliki

It's difficult to not notice the new changes to the homepage.
We have completely changed layouts as promised, and of course we've added a few nice effects such as the Show/hide all news button above.
But that's not the only thing we've done, it is now also possible to view a specific news item instead of having the whole list of news items.
You can go to this page by clicking on a news item's title, but can also go to it by clicking on one of the news items in the Latest Homepage News.

We have also added a "Did you know..." feature to the homepage.
This will display many interesting things about RuneScape, RuneScape Private Servers and RuneLocus that you might want to know.
If you have an interesting thing you would like to share, please contact a staff member through the forums and we will add it for you.

If you find any bugs or have a suggestion for us, please contact us through the forums or send an email to

When is the Status Page back online?

Posted by God of Ikiliki

Right now we have no idea when the Status Page is back.
As many of you know, we are developing a complete new status page with many new features profiting your private servers, but also making it easier for you to find other servers.
Until it's not back yet we advise you to use the Top List and Forums to advertise your server and find other servers.
