Spam/Flame

To help keep the section clean, please us the "Report Post" button in the thread for minor violations, then ignore the offending user. Replying to spam and flames only encourages nonsense. If an offence needs immediate attention, (heavy flames, outside links, keyloggers, porn etc) you can report this directly to a Moderator.

Section 2: Events, Services and Trades

• Services such as firecapes, quests, mini-games, gaining potential (ep), staking (any dueling in unsupported) and any sort of training/leveling or monsters killing ISO's belong in My Events. DO NOT post them as RS Trading topics. This includes offering or request these services.
• NEVER advertise or post Events in RS Trading.
• Trades involving items (selling/buying/lending) or Runescape gold (junk trading/26ks/76ks ONLY/effigies) belong in RS Trading, but remember that gold farming/gold camping (this includes dragon kills for profit)/merchanting/drop methods and any other transfers of exploits/glitches are illegal trades!
  NOTE: 76ks and staking are unsupported: d2jsp does not mediate these trades.
• Keep a Bank Pin on your account at all times.
• Bank all your items unless you are supplying anything (e.g. pickaxe for mining).
• Recoveries must be in place on the account.
• A user having a service done on his/her account can only have one job done on that account at a time.
• Users who are doing services are only allowed to do one job at a time.
• Mediator is strongly suggested in this trade. It must be requested before the start of the job.
• The service should be no longer than 7 days. This is to protect yourself against them changing your Bank Pin or getting into it.

However, we will not support accusations against stealing. You're doing this at your own risk.

Payment for jobs
Runescape services must be paid for with FG. You may not pay for it with any other means.

If you still need assistance with the My Events system please post on the General Help forums.
If you have any suggestions for the My Events system, including new suggested results to be added into the list, you can post on Site Suggestions.

Section 3: Account Security

Scammer Accusations

You can post your Scammer Accusations here. Using this guide.

The best way to avoid being scammed is to use a Mediator

To find a Mediator, hit the Request A Mediator button at the top right corner of your topic.

Here is a guide on how to request a Mediator: Detailed Instructions on How to Prevent Being Scammed and How to Request a Mediator!

Account Trading/Members Pins



d2sp does not allow account trading or members pin trading in the regular Runescape, RS Trading or Clan Discussion forums. There are many reasons for this, but the most important reason is your safety. We can’t Mediate these trades to ensure you don’t get scammed. At least 70% of RS scammer accusations are from account trading. Please be safe and just don’t do it.

Illegal Trades

*Do not trade for /sell accounts, character names, bug methods, Merchanting/Gold Farming (this includes dragon kills for profit) services or iso's or any other items you may question (links to auction/advertising sites and similar sites are not allowed). Do not trade "methods" for xfers or illegal things/glitches.
*Do not hold any kind of events like raffles/tournaments etc for fg.
*Do not engage in Crash trading. Flipping, merchanting and dumping merch items are also not permitted.
*Staking is not to be mediated and it should be treated as at-your-own-risk.
*NEW: do not trade Flagstaff of Festivities, flag codes, anything that's a real world trade related to RuneFest

Section 4: Outside Links
