[edit] Merlinscape

An article (mostly advertising) a game illegally stolen off the copyrighted game RuneScape by Jagex Ltd. The game has no "private servers" - all servers are run by Jagex, and some individuals decompile and copy the game's source code, creating illegal copies, such as the one advertised in this article.

  • Speedy delete per nom. Advert (CSD G11), non-notable (CSD A7), probable hoax and endorsing a copyright theft. CaptainVindaloo t c e 23:38, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Note: I accidentally typed CSD A7 as A11. Sorry about that. CaptainVindaloo t c e 18:35, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete per both arguments already stated, RS accounts are regularly targetted by keyloggers and something like this seems like an ideal set-up for that purpose. Strongly suggest salting if possible, WP should not be used for advertising stolen material or stealing from RS players' accounts. QuagmireDog 00:37, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Kick it to the end of New Zealand Wikipedia should not contain articles advertising illegal methods of scamming/hacking RuneScape or RuneScape accounts. If this server was particularly notable, I would reconsider my vote. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 06:22, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
