well heres some fun facts ive found out .
on the main page it says 130million runescape accounts made.
imagine how rich the mage at the end of tutorial island is.
he gives out
25air runes = 3.25bil air runes!!!!!
15 mind runes = 1.95bil mind runes!
6 water runes = 780 million water runes!
4 earth runes = 520million earth runes!
2 body runes = 260mil body runes!
dont forget to mention the arrows
25 arrows = 3.25bil bronze arrows!
AMAZING what do u guys have?

------------------------------------------------
What other people had in mind:

J@nr0k - You can run with Ctrl.

~Ada~ - The clocks above the bank in Catherby, the Clock Tower, and East Ardougne appear to have stopped at 10:04, which may be a reference to the 1985 movie Back to the Future, in which the clock above the courthouse stopped at that exact time.( BTW: I love that movie ^_^; ~Archer)

Moarth - Also, another movie reference to the life of Brian
During the quest that allows you to get a holy wrench, when the guy enchants it, he'll say "Romanes eunt donus" Which is used when Brian is graffiting the Roman Courtyard

JackStick (without fusion month) Rune used to be purple ( Now that interesting -Archer)

Hmm... I'm sure a large proportion of those 130 million accounts are banned as well, but they've accounted for them so it makes their numbers look larger, lol.

Not to mention, not all of them has gone through Tutorial Island, or rather the current incarnation of Tutorial Island.

A reference to the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail is revealed if players use a herring (cooked or uncooked) with any tree in RuneScape. The text will say: "This is not the mightiest tree in the forest", in reference to the movie. Also, if used with the Grand Tree doors, the text replies "It can't be done", in reference to a line in the movie.

Bork from the Hunt for Surok miniquest has references to the species Borg from all Star Trek TV series. His name included, the Ork legions he summons say the Borg phrase: "Resistance is futile!", and refer to themselves as the Collective. (By saying "We are the collective!")

The clocks above the bank in Catherby, the Clock Tower, and East Ardougne appear to have stopped at 10:04, which may be a reference to the 1985 movie Back to the Future, in which the clock above the courthouse stopped at that exact time.

During the What Lies Below quest, when speaking to Zaff, the player says "Won't he be disinclined to acquiesce to that request?", a line from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

Neat, huh? http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Cultural_references

The name of the quest *The Great Brain Robbery* is inspired of the book called *The Great Train Robbery* wrote by Michael Crichton, the guy who wrote Jurassic Park.

When jagex announced hunter, everyone flamed them because everyone thought it would be just like slayer. But it turned out pretty much the opposite of slayer. :|

Before the public release of Runescape, it used to be named "Devious Mud"

(Yes, I have researched things during spare time :P )

Brian O'Richard at the Rouges Den is a referance to Richard O'Brian from a UK televsion show called The Crystal Maze. He played the harmonica a lot on the show which is why Brian O'Richards asks you to look out for his :P.
Jeremy Clerkson in the church in Varrock is a referance to one of the presenters of Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson.

Before the merging of the good and evil spell books, and before prayer came out, there was a Camouflage spell that reduced NPC aggressiveness when cast on oneself. It was removed before prayer and spellbook merging.

You're thinking of magic, not prayer. :)
