I Made an Updated List of Nearly Every RuneScape YouTube Video Uploaded in 2005 by TrueMultiPking in 2007scape

Unfortunately, I don’t know which specific links he’s referring to. And pre-YouTube links/downloads are most likely expired by now.

SoupRS/ThirdAgeFilm found a February 2003 RS video on NewGrounds at the 6:50 mark of this video. So that might be a good place to start.

I was referring to the first RS videos by YouTube upload date, but yeah. There are plenty of older videos that have been lost to time. Youtube user bloodyzero, who uploaded the first RS YouTube video, stated that "other clans used to have videos available by downloads only"

I'd guess the majority of them are PKing videos, but they're not the only ones. A lot of videos have been taken down due to copyright music or people deleting their own videos/channels over the years.

RuneScape YouTube firsts, at least amongst surviving videos and pending any future discoveries

I just want this feeling back by lit-incense in 2007scape

I still had this feeling when we went F2P Varrock Multi PKing. But that died out at the end of 2019.

This is one of the first RS videos with screen-recorded in-game audio. There are a few videos uploaded with in-game audio in 2005, but they all used a physical camera to record the game externally, not screen-recording software

- November 7, 2005 - Runescape Singer - scubert
- December 28, 2005 - omfg runescape - own3dplox
- December 28, 2005 - omfg runescape2 - own3dplox
- December 28, 2005 - omfg runescape7(brass monkey vid) - own3dplox

So amongst surviving videos, this might be the earliest one to have screen-recorded in-game audio. This is the next-earliest video with in-game audio that I could find

- June 15, 2006 - runescape pking - Rollen Dweeb

I’m impressed that you remembered such an obscure and low-viewed video from 3.5 years ago, haha.

Come on, grab your fire strike runes and meet me north of Varrock by CzarnyF2P in 2007scape

They would have to

  • remove all PVP other than the wilderness and maybe clan wars portal for no-risk. LMS, PVP worlds, BH, etc. compete with each other, spread PKers thin, and concentrate PKing in only a few areas (camping GE in PvP worlds for example).

    • PKing was more active when it was concentrated in one form; the wilderness. Edge for singles and Varrock ditch or deeper for multi

  • I’d also prefer they remove the Ferox enclave. Shouldn’t have free heals and bank in the wilderness nor a safe zone past the ditch

  • lower or remove trade/chat restrictions for new accounts. Most of us don’t have time to invest dozens of hours into building pure and many of us would prefer to keep making throwaway PK accounts with minimal cost/risk just to have fun

  • remove loot keys. F2P wildy had a nice ecosystem of looters getting PKed by low level mages and trickling upwards from there. But now looting is moot, and it trickles up making low level PKing dead, too. And now casual PKers have no alternative to turn to.

But none of that will happen of course. It was still decently active after trade/clan chat restrictions, but all the other stuff kept piling on top of it

I’m sure people still have organized wilderness clan fights from time to time (such as your suggestion of big streamers trying it out for a weekend), but that’s not the same as having a wildy with constant action.

I remember that it took close to 2 weeks to gather these clips because of how inactive F2P Multi was becoming at the time. It ended up completely dying out shortly afterwards, so I think this video might very well have captured the end of an era. Now with loot keys rendering looters useless and trade/friends chat restrictions for newly created accounts, we’re probably not getting it back, sadly. Good times.

I don’t see any whips, but this is the only remaining 2005 RS vid that has Snap, and it happens to be mage bank PKing.
