Forum:New idea "RSC pictures"
new idea "RSC pictures" some times when looking at graphical update galleries you will also get a RSC picture which is worth 10x the amount of a normal picture
Example image:

Pros
- increases interest in RuneScape Classic
- some of the old RSC pictures are really cute
Cons
- massively increases storage requirements for the wiki
- might make OSRS less popular when people realize how much better the RSC graphics were

Support - we can easily handle the two cons. For storage space, we can just set up something simple on the backend to point to the image already on the rscw image. Im thinking we lock it behind captchas to make sure people dont hit rscw too hard. This seems like the simplest way to save the extra 0.00000001 cents required to store the extra images. We can also avoid people losing interest in oldschool by creating a new Template:Illegal Graphic that makes it clear the graphic shown cannot be obtained in game. - Andmcadams (talk) 14:45, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

ULTRA Oppose - The people are not ready to see some of the badass inventory sprites RSC had (eg. dragon longsword, glowing dagger, cannonball). Seriously, look at them.
- The dragon longsword's spikes are awesome. Arclight and Emberlight wishes it could be a fraction of how awesome the RSC DLong was.
- You can see the dagger's sick glow instead of it looking like a blob in Old School (and a piece of it is chipped too, which only adds to the coolness).
- SPIKED. CANNONBALLS. You're telling me I could have been blasting dagannoth and bloodvelds on my Slayer tasks with SPIKED CANNONBALLS?!
If the public were able to see this not just on the RSC wiki, but rather on the readily available and far more popular OSRS Wiki, they would leave this game in droves. The amount of complaints regarding the removal of these rad sprites would be unimaginable. YoshiFan12 (talk) 18:24, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
Support – If JamFlex refuses to give us golden money, can we at least have this? MeneerPjoeterBliep (talk) 06:12, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
