Hey guys, Eh here. I'm from Canada, I work in the construction trades, I have a wife and two young daughters. I'm new to Alora but I am stoked to be here!

 

I haven't played private servers in probably five years, but Alora was the clear best option. The gameplay seems very polished, and the community seems absolutely amazing. Generally I like to build trophy accounts (Level 3 skillers, 10hp builds, pures, etc.) so I'm sure that's what I'll be playing on my account(s) here.

 

I'm hoping to sink many hours, days, weeks and months building my account and building relationships with you all! I do a bad job of being active on stuff like forums and Discord channels but I'm actively pushing myself to be more engaged on stuff like this. 

 

Hope to meet you all and make tons of memories!

Thanks everyone for building this great community which I am now a part of.

 

Sincerely,

Eh

Alora League 3.0 Information

Hello everyone,

Another league event is on the horizon! We're excited to announce that we're hosting our 3rd Alora League in just a few days! This League event introduces two new regions, Karamja & the Desert, and brings with it all-new in-game rewards. If you did not participate in either of the previous Leagues, here's the rundown:

On March 15th at 7pm Eastern Time, starting on fresh accounts that are locked to Zeah (with Desert and Karamja now unlockable), you'll be able to complete tasks and collect points. The players who have accumulated the most points by the end of the tournament will be awarded with some juicy prizes, including a PlayStation 5 for the top prize! There are also many other token prizes that can be won for the first players to accomplish certain tasks, such as obtaining Ranger boots. At the end of the tournament, players can spend their points on new, unique items from the Leagues reward shop.

Start date: March 15th, 7pm EST (Midnight server time)
End date: April 5th, 7pm EST (Midnight server time)

How does it work?
On March 15th, you'll be able to create a fresh account to participate in Leagues. This account will be wiped on April 5th and no items can be transferred off of it to a normal account, due to the increased drop rates on this game mode and other perks. Certain areas will be instanced, such as the Kourend Catacombs, to allow players to have a bit more space to train and compete. We are also instancing bosses such as Sarachnis to prevent overcrowding. While donator ranks do apply on these accounts, due to the account being permanently locked at the end of the tournament, at that point you will need to put in a request to transfer the total spent to one of your main Alora accounts -- no minimum amount applies on these transfers and the lowest donation rank can be transferred.

Top Alora cash prizes:

• PlayStation 5
• AirPods Pro
• Logitech G935 Gaming Headset
• Logitech G502 Gaming Mouse

 

Top Alora Token prizes:

• First Twisted bow: 1,000 tokens
• First Tumeken's shadow: 1,000 tokens
• First to obtain Infernal cape: 1,000 tokens
• First to 200m exp in any skill: 1,000 tokens
• First 1,000-level Tombs of Amascut completion: 750 tokens
• First to obtain a Phoenix pet from Wintertodt: 750 tokens
• First to obtain a Tempoross pet: 750 tokens
• First to obtain any boss pet: 750 tokens
• First to obtain any 3rd age piece: 750 tokens
• First to complete a Master difficulty task: 500 tokens
• First to complete a collection log entry: 250 tokens

 

Even if you don't receive one of the big cash prizes, there are plenty of reasons to play leagues! If you're feeling lucky, try your hand at a specific token prize, such as obtaining a Phoenix pet. You'll also have the ability to spend your points on many different in-game prizes at the end of the tournament, including previous League rewards and new alike, such as:

• Leagues Trophies
• Trailblazer Reloaded Banner
• Trailblazer Reloaded Relic Hunter Sets
• Trailblazer Reloaded Ornament Kits for the following items:
  • Blowpipe
  • Dinh's Bulwark
• Trailblazer Reloaded Home Teleport Scroll
• Trailblazer Reloaded Alchemy Scroll
• Trailblazer Reloaded Death Scroll
• Trailblazer Reloaded Rejuventation Pool Scroll
• Trailblazer Reloaded Vengeance Scroll

 

Notes:

• The rules and prizes are subject to change based on availability.
• If a cash prize is unavailable in your country, an equivalent prize or amount via PayPal may be substituted.
• Winners of cash prizes can choose to receive Alora tokens and can receive 50% more by doing so.

 

We'll have more detailed information of this tournament on release day, but this thread should give you a basic outline of what's to come. We hope you guys are just as excited for the start of our third Alora League!

 

Best,

Omicron

I am a super donator in-game, and fairly knowledgeable about RuneScape as a whole. I have been playing RuneScape since 2006.

Point is, if you have questions about the game, I will most likely possibly know the answer... possibly.

 

I am really bad at these posts and introductions, so feel free to ask any questions you have about me, if you do :)

(Lou, photo taken 2 days ago lol)

jfc i hurt you this bad king? l0l and yeah only 1.7b all time cuz aint shit else worth throwing in there besides low tier items. Stop counting my bank man let it go, you will never have my bank just get over it

 

 

actually it would, it did the same for polton and 17 when they held the eco, we actively looked for items that gave the best return for gp. hense the screenshot below of items im holding to chuck in well over time.

 

I'm sure everyone I bought these items off of are happier because of it, and if we could widen this to higher tier items like bandos, ancestral, arcanes, etc then I'd 100% be more incentivized to buy them up to chuck into the well.

This is an incredibly silly screenshot to post since you claim to buy out all the elder mauls and given you rarely donate to well to begin with. I'm not sure if you've seen how much 17 has donated to well, or what his well tab looked like, but this is not a comparison you want to make; nothing you're doing here is the same as them.

 

This idea will not make anyone, including yourself, dump high end items into well when they could sell it for raw cash. You get relatively nothing for donating to well apart from bonus exp, and there are plenty of people who will donate for that of course, but making an arcane 1.5b in the well has no incentivization for people who have arcanes to then dump them in the well. You lose 800-900m raw cash for 1.5b value in well, which is not an equivalent exchange.

 

There are a handful of good ideas you could suggest regarding the state of the well, but you post the same well suggestions on repeat that are just inherently bad. The well is completely functional as is, however I do believe it could do with some additions potentially, but this isn't one of them.

No support, well works fine.

If I understand this correctly, all items should be wrongly valued because a few of them are according to well? 

no support, dont like the idea of overpricing items.... 

 

DONATIONS:

 

 

Aftermath CC is an all game-modes clan that doesn't take themselves, or this game too seriously. We're here to have some fun, and not to treat this game like an Olympic sport, now if this sounds like you please feel free to apply to Alora's most popular non-helpcc at the following: Aftermath - PvM/Skilling - All Game Modes - Clan Recruitment - Alora RSPS | Oldschool MMORPG

 

 

 

Although we do have requirements to become full members, we also have a trial rank that allows you 30 days to not only complete the requirements but also to get vibe checked by the homies. Without further rambling I bring to you Alora's Finest: Aftermath. 

 

 

 

 

 

This month we have a few changes to the Higher-Ups and are excited for what the future has to bring.

 

Promotions:

 

We congratulate @saeed for his promotion to the Gold Star Gang.

 

Additions:

 

We welcome back @St8 as Captain from his brief hiatus to touch grass and lift weights.

 

 

Resignations:

 

None - Congrats guys.

 

 

 

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

 

 

 

We have officially met with @Paragon and they have recognized their untimely demise and they made a laughably brief attempt to join our ranks before they were ridiculed and given the swift boot out after unsightly screenshots leaked of their discussions about our beloved Tekk3rs. We'd expose those discussions but they're so vile they wouldn't be allowed on Alora's Christian Minecraft Forums.

 

 

 

We here at Aftermath will be recognizing 3 of our most important members every month with honorable awards that they can wear with pride.

 

 

Now we aren't stingy with our awards and accolades and will be recognizing 1 non-cc member every single month for their contributions to not only making Aftermath great but also Alora great!

 

 

@redcar aka Dedcar has a long history of donating HUGE amounts to Aftermath even when he was among our ranks. Unfortunately he's not as quick with his logout in the wilderness as he is while gambling clan members.

 

 

 

 

Listen Up, we're more than just our sense of humor. Behind the jokes and the banter we're some of the most dedicated and impressive gamers Alora has to offer. We may be humble but we are not to be mistaken for chumps. Lets take a few minutes to appreciate some achievements made by AFM members!

 

 

I'd like to start this section off by stating something we all are thinking: what the ACTUAL fuck @Omicron how is this possible. 

 

 

Unfortunately somehow we LOST pictures of shadow drops from @McGehee. I think I speak for everyone in Alora when I say you're the absolute spoon of the DECADE. 

The Spooning Don't Stop There!

 

 

I'm glad you've made it this far. Unfortunately not all players in Alora that witness Aftermath's greatness live as long as you, many perish at the hands of our beloved demons in the wilderness. Unfortunately PARAGONE has been MIA apart from @socket and @Ransu poking their head up once in a while to score a kill on one of our many PvMers to cosplay as NHers. Somehow in their little forum post they left out all the sets they lost to those very same PvMers... Wonder how that happened, must be a glitchh

 

Somehow our PvMers turned NH Cosplayers have claimed many sets recently, although we don't claim to be a PvP focused clan we aren't afraid of throwing ourselves in the ring. Our impeccable teamwork, and team morale that's higher than @Moe and @it_happened on a weekend make us a formidable threat to all in Alora's Wilderness.

 

We wanna give an honorable mention to the Wannabe Disney star, former AFM members, and "PKers" who lose their streaks to HCIM: Alora may not be 1:1 with osrs but we can still turn your bones to peaches in our hearts. 

 

 

 

Now, if you're a little angry or upset by this point I'd like to remind you that this is just a ripoff of a 00's clicker game and none of this is serious. We'd like to conclude this volume with some funny moments from behind the scenes from this month. In the end, this game would suck ass if it wasn't for the people in it and the fun we have together.

AFTERMATH HISTORY LESSONS

 

Congratulations for making it all the way though this post. We're going to end these newsletters with some history lessons on major Aftermath events, people, misfortunates, etc. 

 

Today we're going to learn about the infamous

 

Super Restore Fiasco of 2023

 

Legal Disclaimer:

 

In late 2022/early 2023 Alora's amazing development team implemented one of the most beloved changes in history; They made super restores heal almost 50HP in addition to their regular effects. It wasn't long before players (and staff) began to take note, a new meta was forming for ALL content in the game. Anglers and manta rays were left in the bank and players across all our 1 world began using super restores instead; especially prominent AFM members. 

 

After this became known to staff conflicting reports came out about what you were, and weren't allowed to do. You couldn't use them, you could only use them bursting, you could only have a maximum of 3 in your inventory, the rules kept coming and so did the seemingly arbitrary punishments. 

 

Unfortunately Aftermath is not known for a reserved nature, and instead some of our prominent members took it upon themselves to "bug test" the super restores to explore the details of this new Alora "feature" to determine how best to file bug reports and help our development team out. Unfortunately the staff didn't see this the way many of us did; and swiftly handed out jails and punishments to the many members accused of "abusing" this new feature. 

 

Here are some of the greatest moments from this time:
