Runescape Luring is DEAD

I was browsing Runescape sites, found this and suddenly realized that Runescape Luring is finally completely officially irreversibly DEAD!!!
I was actually quite shocked by finding this luring guide. I was under impression that the March statement about luring and Wilderness Ditch took care of these despicable activities, but apparently Luring continued its existence. It took the whole Wilderness removal and introduction of the trade restrictions to finally kill it. Good riddance.

P.S. Please, be careful with the site I linked this time. It looks very much like a cheating site and there is some very questionable content posted there. I wouldn't advise to read beyond this particular guide (which I consider being an epitaph on the Runescape Luring Gravestone)

More ideas about Gravestones in Runescape

Two more plausible ideas I found on the official Runescape forum:

From Derick Z:
I think that I know what they will do. They ARE aesthetic, but they also serve a purpose . They will only appear if you lose items, not only so you don't see gravestones popping up everywhere, but also because that is the only kind of death that JAGeX needs to investigate...It will save a record of who died, who killed him, and maybe if the value of the drop is high enough, it will send a 60 second clip of before the gravestone appeared to JAGeX. In that way they will be able to see which are legitimate kills, which are set up RWT's, etc.

From Exagunimon2:
How obvious lol. The gravestones are for alerting people who see it that there may be items there if you wait (since items take awhile to appear). Thats probably why its only if you die with items. Plus if youre lucky, you can find your own grave and retrieve your belongings.

Truth behind Runescape Gravestones?

OK, I found this quote on RuneVillage forum:

"You may visit Muntabii in the Mage arena found in deep Wilderness to reserve your gravestone. For 50,000gp (50k) you may set your account to keep all your items when dying, even when skulled or attacked by another player. For 100k, you may also buy other peoples items from there gravestones..."

Couldn't find the original source, though. Does anybody have more information on the subject?

Gravestones in Runescape and Taming Wilderness

Interesting speculation on the coming updates. I actually tend to agree with these predictions - they look very reasonable. And, yes, change to the Wilderness is long due. Note, that taming Wilderness would not only fix a loophole for RWT, but also would be yet another step to make the game more appropriate to the younger audience, which is what we really have in the game despite 13+ requirement.
