Runescape or RuneScape?

RuneScape, since that's how it's meant to be spelled.

You don't say Rune Scape. You say Runescape. Therefore it is one word, and it would be improper grammar to spell it as RuneScape. Rune-Scape or Rune Scape would be fine. Due to that, I believe the S is capitalized merely for pronounciations sake.

It's a bit hard to bring grammar rules into a nonexistent trademarked word.

Does it really matter??
Im content if i can read it.
And sometimes i called Runescape "RS", not in real life , though, that'd sound weird...

i don't really think it matters, and plus most people are lazy typers and don't wanna type with correct punctuation, heck i don't most of the time, but the day jagex makes it so everyone has type Runescape as RuneScape is the day it matters i suppose.

At first I didn't know what your talking about lol

I like saying Runescape because then I don't have to use the capilzation twice. I'm just lazy.

I usually Type RuneScape or RunScape.
It in UK. in UK you can double capitalize words.

I'm indifferent..Runescape is easier to type, plus it's proper grammar anyhow, Jagex should know better.

I don't think it should really matter that much how the name is spelled, just as long as we get to play the game.

Thats not even close to topic.

This is proper grammar since its a title or name.

Lets see here... Anyone here like McDonald's? There we go there. I life example. All I'm saying is you should spell RuneScape as it's supposed to be. If you can't say it in the game, you have an excuse.

I'm RuneScape were a common word that is in the dictionary and a teacher asked you to spell it, most of you from what I've heard would get an F.

This is the way RuneScape is meant to spelled. Enforce it. It's the its meant to be. I didn't mean this topic turning into an exploit.

I'm requesting this locked for now.

Oh and in my class if you spelled February, febuary my teacher would call it a mis-spell.

Calm yourselfs down lol it's just a question, no need for anyone to get so worked up.

It's a good example of CamelCasing!

I call it RuneScape. Unless I'm to lazy to press the [shift]-button again.

I can see what you are saying, but... does it REALLY matter? It is just the name of a game, i mean.... would you get all hyped up about someone typing: battlefield 2 modern combat, instead of: Battlefield 2 Modern Combat? $\:D/$

Not all the time, for example...

Allot people call RuneScape, Runescape. I am not talking about pronouncing it but how its spelled. It's correctly spell RuneScape.

Don't believe me? Go to http://www.runescape.com/ and look at the top of your screen. It should say RuneScape - the massive online adventure game by Jagex Ltd. Also, if you look all over the site it says RuneScape.

It just fustrates me on why its spelled wrong. In fact this site is spelled wrong. I am not ranting about the site itself but the spelling error.

Thank you for your time.

It's the name of the game. I suppose they can spell it however they want. Both words "runescape" and "RuneScape" are spelling errors anyway. If they wanted to name it "LOLZKANTSPELLWELL" I suppose they could too.
