Ok this might seem a slightly stupid thing to get botherd over but meh it ticks me off..WHY can't i do a £ sign anymore? I can do doller (which is useless to me) but not pound? What the hell is wrong with you jagex you ARE an english company and taking away my £ sign is just stupid i don't deal in american dollers last i checked 1 doller was like 75p so give it back.
/rant

(no im not spamming, losing my mind, trying to be funny or picking holes..i really DO hate it im about to send a message to jagex asking.)

I have to agree with you here, why put the dollar sign but not the pound sign, Jagex and Runescape is English after all.. :roll:

Most Keyboards have the dollar sign, but not the pound sign. Maybe that's why they took it out?...Idk, maybe they just had complaints over it, though I don't know why they would. :?

the dollar sign is a common character in many coding languages, thats prolly why its included, and pound is not.

Real life money is not a part of the game

well, how do you even type it?

all i know is the ALT + <numbers> way, and i dont know the code for pound :?

like examples...

¢ = ALT + 0162
™ = ALT + 0153
§ = ALT + 789

Alt + 3 = £

If you're American it wont work because you're using an American keyboard.

Whats coding got to do with it..? They had the pound sign before and if real life money isn't part of the game remove all money signs, just to be fair. :P

... This is just stupid.

£££££££££££££££££££

On English Keyboards it's Shift and 3.

And if you say pounds dont matter in the game, what if i'm telling someone about members? I'm not gonna use Dollars, Because thats not what i use.

to many lil kiddies could use them both for bypassing the filter if they thought about it, they should just remove them both or maybe code it so that when typed both the symbols appear as a uniform runescape cash symbol of their own design.
