The OSRS Pride 🌈 Zine is out! I am so proud of this community 🫂 for pulling together in response to Jagex & Mod Norths COWARDLY decision to remove the Pride event this year. Incredible output from so many talented people & I am charmed to see I know so many of you. Pride 🌈 belongs in Gielinor.

ayyyy guess who made the cover art! Here I showcased the wide variety of players that I saw during my time at the priot in June and July, @renderscape.bsky.social's fashionscape contest, and the pride march. Also now that it's November, happy Trans Awareness Month! ✨️🏳️⚧️

The zine is finally out!!! I wrote a piece for it titled ‘the priot’, if you wanna read that, along with everyone else’s beautiful art, and thoughtful words. This is what community is about.

OSRS BlueSkyers 🦋, our good friend @sagemistress.bsky.social needs your 🫵 help. If you have any footage 📽️ from the Priot in OldSchool RuneScape - the protest against Jagex' CEO Mod North, Jon Bellamy, for cancelling this year's Pride 🌈 event - please let Sage know. Pride belongs in Gielinor 🌈.
Sage 🍁🍉@siliconsuffragette.ca · 9mo agoI've decided I'm not really too interested in streaming nor do I really have the time for it at this point, but I do have a really good video idea that I wanna make and as far as I know no other #osrs #runescape creator has specifically covered this topic. That said, anyone have videos from priot?
absolutely wonderful community contribution. queers will always be a cornerstone of runescape's culture no matter how badly people like Mod North try to ignore that fact

So, it's July 1st & Pride 🌈 Month 🗓️ is over. Jagex's Mod North refused to release the 2025 Pride 🌈 event into OSRS. We, however, are not defeated. Here's a thread 🧵 of how we are only stronger & will be bringing Pride forward with us all year round like a queer Scrooge. Pride Belongs In Gielinor.

Lets get as much turnout for this as we can! This Friday, 3:45 UK time. Be there and be colourful! 🏳️🌈 Remember this is about having a presence and not about causing problems so we will be participating in the event as usual, just looking good while doing it ✨
I wrote a poem inspired by the pride protests in Old School RuneScape. I'm so proud to be a part of this amazing community. Each and every one of you has such incredible strength and resolve. Going on 18 days and still no sign of slowing down! #OSRS #RuneScape #Pride #Poetry #LoveIsLove
The original @pinknews.bsky.social piece we cite as one of the pieces of reporting discussing this issue can be referenced here:
Exclusive: RuneScape developer Jagex slammed by staff for Pride Month U-turn
An anonymous employee has accused RuneScape developer Jagex of “catering to American conservatism” by pausing its annual in-game Pride Month events.

The OSRS Zine Project is also continuing to collect works that reflects the LGBTQIA+ community of the game: @osrszine.bsky.social
We're not the only ones who have been collecting comments. Please take the time to read @arealgoldmouth.bsky.social's article covering the reaction to the cancellation of Pride in OSRS and RuneScape, and all the passionate comments within!
Gamesline@gamesline.net · last yr.RuneScape tried to take Pride away and players fought back. @arealgoldmouth.bsky.social chatted with RuneScape community members of such as @renderscape.bsky.social, @osrszine.bsky.social, and more—discussing the game's impact on their lives and the power of protest. gamesline.net/protests-for...
It's very disappointing that there's no Pride event in OSRS this year. This video is a lovely way to revisit last year's event, and shows why many people were excited to see the story of the Glade being developed this year and in the future
🏳️⚧️Lowercase B bimpko@bimpko.bsky.social · last yr.Heyy 💕 I just released my Pride video if you want to check it out! youtu.be/ZAXVr7XIW_0
Unsurprising, but truly disappointing. No Pride 🌈 event in today's OSRS update, the last of the month, despite the longest in-game protest OSRS has ever seen. Like a self-fulfilling prophecy Mod North made Pride 🌈 in OSRS "controversial in a way it didn’t used to be". We won't forget.

Work scuppered my plans of attending but woweeee what a turnout I've seen! Thank you @renderscape.bsky.social, @goawaymebusy.bsky.social, @birdhome.bsky.social, @rainbowro.ad & everyone who made it happen. Mod North, Jagex, the community 🫂 is here. Do what's right. Release the OSRS Pride 🌈 Event.
