Taken from Runescape.com

31 August 2006 - Knowledge Base update - Area Guides
Reldo and a few dozen other educated types have been slaving for months to find out all they can about every town, city, dungeon and major island in RuneScape, and now they're ready to show you the results of their labours. During this time even Evil Bob stopped bothering them, because - no matter how evil he is - Evil Bob knew how utterly amazing their project would be. Yes, the Area Guides have arrived in the Knowledge Base, and both Bob and Evil Bob are most pleased!
For now, we have the free areas covered, so there are guides to:


Al Kharid
Asgarnian Ice Dungeon (the Blurite Mine)
Barbarian Village
Crandor
Crandor and Karamja Dungeon
Draynor Village and Manor
Edgeville
Edgeville Dungeon
Falador
Lava Maze
Lumbridge
Lumbridge Swamp
Port Sarim
Rimmington
Varrock
Varrock Sewers
Each area guide includes: a little history and culture, maps of the area, a detailed run-down of all the interesting features and sights, the local personalities, the quests that can be started there, the beasties and guards you can fight, and much more.

The Knowledge Base is a very useful tool for new and experienced players alike, and is always being updated. Why not take a look and see for yourself?

Coming Soon to the Area Guides:


The frozen lands of the Fremennik
Tree Gnome Stronghold
Keldagrim
Happy adventuring!

Hey Jagex. Quit being money whores and let fansites exist.

Next up, a place on runescape.com where you can type in a passcode for free money! And they'll do your quests for you! And get you to 99 in any level you want!

Jagex's move to put yet another nail on a majority of fansites' coffins.

Too bad we don't have what they're offering, or we'd be affected!

Jagex is going way too far in the Knowledge Base thing.

A knowledge base is good, because it should only contain info that people have to read (such as keeping your account safe and other technical stuff).

This is more like a game guide/walkthrough for the whole game.

An MMORPG usually gains a lot of its popularity through fansites. In return, the MMORPG's should acknowledge those fansites.

Jagex can get info for their guide by just asking colleagues or viewung the game source or something, We have to work a lot more to get certain stuff. So it's not really fair either.
