Is it not a click of a button job? Surely more people would use it if it was on the front page rather than hidden which increases it's overall activity?

Yep it's definately picking up again and will increase with the re-release of now defunct features which caused many users to quit.
I don't see no reason not trialing it, and it has been picking up.
Not only is wildy & free trade coming back I heard that "drops" are being allowed back (e.g, you drop your stuff and everyone can see it - no matter the value - hence allowing drop trading to come back) but that's just a rumour.
I want to be a member again lol, my membership just ran out :( oh well, I'm in favour of this anyway.
This isn't going to be one of those instances where a forum dies, gets moved, magically comes to life, gets moved back to where it was, dies again and you get an irritating circle of misfortunate events, is it? Bring it back as a trial by all means, but if it dies again keep it as a subforum until it comes back to life properly.
My worry precisely and I think Nicola has made a very good point in offering to wait and see.Quote:

For this reason, having set policies for certain situations and general rationale can make things much easier as far as running the forum in a transparent and understandable way.Quote:

It's not about the effort it takes to move a forum, that could be done in seconds it's the point of why this forum was moved to a subforum in the first place (not so long ago let's remember) - to move it back now would be a bit silly as activity has only increased recently - we cannot guaruntee that this activity will stay the same therefore it is the wisest decision to wait and see, if I had a Forum Manager who saw an idea in feedback and jumped at it without thinking about it properly then a month down the line the runescape forum was dead again and clogging up space on the index, that forum manager would look like a bit of a muppet, I know this because it's something I did a couple of times when I was Forum Manager and trust me it's one of the biggest mistakes you can make.Quote:

It's obvious what needs to be done guys so ditch this thread and head over to the RuneScape section, like Catzsy has said.
