Talk:Jagex

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jagex corporate site says that Jagex was founded in December 2001, but according to archive.org, records show entries dating back to November 1999. Also, I don't think that Constant Tedder was in Jagex at the time. (Ian Gower and Rob Law were also prominent staff members since the development of RuneScape, I think). --Ixfd64 04:05, 2004 Aug 14 (UTC)

[edit] Protection

I've protected this article since it's been vandalized from people anons coming from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sythe.org most likely. I must say though, the name of this company sounds like some medication being marketed from that old military lawyer show on CBS. Karmafist 23:37, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Paintball caption

I've added a more descriptive caption to the picture of the staff in paintball gear. It wasn't clear what "As of April 23, 2003" meant, so I changed it to "Released April 23, 2003", which is what it says on the image page. I assume this is supposed to mean that the photo was released (published) by Jagex on that date (and would be current to that time). If anyone can clarify it, please do so. Thanks.

I think that this article has been pretty thoroughly done, at this point it seems much better than anything else tagged for clean up.

[edit] Game descriptions

Would some short info on what the games all are be useful? OneWeirdDude 18:47, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

I think it could be usefull, the games are not large enough to deserve their own pages, so info about them should go here, IMHO - Redmess 15:33, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup?

I've removed this tag as this article seems good quality now and I could not find any specific errors and there was no mention of it on the talk page. SandBoxer 22:18, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong Info

The info you guys got seems wrong in one place. Jagex's Corporate Site says that over 5000 subscribed in the first week, not 100. Just though I'd let everyone know before I changed it. Richard x 23:25, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

There is more wrong info in the current amount of players for RuneScape, but I mentioned it already on the talkpage of RuneScape. - Redmess 15:31, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Andrew Gower

Why does 'Andrew Gower' redirect here? There should be more information about Andrew, he deserves an article of his own. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.109.183.157 (talk • contribs).

I agree totally... I will research some info and hopefully make that page. --MasterEagle 05:55, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] JAGeX

I find that a lot of times, Jagex is not spelled "Jagex", but instead is spelled JAGeX. It also appears like this in the picture.--Death motor 20:46, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I suggest we keep the official spelling, and change the unofficial spelling accordingly. - Redmess 15:35, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Euros?

At the bottem of the article there is a note saying that it costs 3.20 Euros ($5.00 USD) to become a member... This must be falce because JAGeX dosn't do runescape in Europe apart from the UK and we use pounds... Also 1 Euro roughly equils 1 USD

i woudn't kno anything about pounds, euros x-cept USD. it does cost 5.00 USD 2 become a member --jesusfreek2 05:19, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean they "don't do RuneScape in Europe"? I live in Canada, and I can play the game fine and pay for membership in my own currency through PayByCash's affiliation with Jagex. Also, I quickly ran a currency exchange check on $5 USD, and it returned to be €3.92, so it's not that close to roughly being a 1:1 ratio. Agentscott00^(talk) 02:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

...And me living in Norway, I also pay just fine in Norwegian Kroner. However, the amount varies as the currencies do. Every month the amount of NOK I pay equals 5 USD. Clq 05:28, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Holiday Events

There is no information describing previous holiday events, which should be added in —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.251.52.93 (talk • contribs) .

Keep in mind this article is about the company behind RuneScape, not the game itself. For ingame content, see the RuneScape article and its other subarticles. They will have what you're looking for. Agentscott00^(talk) 02:33, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
