Line 6:
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]:
** Delrith, the super-demon the Dark Wizards in the Demon Slayer quest are trying to summon, has fewer hit points than a ''cow''.
** {{spoiler|Mother Mallum, who has a [[Memetic Mutation|pillar]] [[Dropped a Bridge on Him|dropped on her]], and your own character never battles her.}} One can argue that the final boss music is decent at least, though you can also argue that it’s nice to see everyone working together to take her down.
* [[Anvilicious]]: Perils of Ice Mountain, so very much.
* [[Awesome Music]]: See [[RuneScape/Awesome Music]].
* [[Broken Base]]: In December 2007, Jagex made the bold move of eliminating all means of large scale private wealth transfer in an effort to combat bots and gold farmers. Among other things, this meant no more trading items with a net loss/gain of more then 3000 gold and no more unrestrained [[Player Versus Player]] combat in the wilderness. This led quite a few people to quit "[[Ruined FOREVER|RuinedScape]]" or at least riot, though the Grand Exchange at least has been well-received by the fandom.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Sigmund, a man who seeks nothing other than the complete genocide of all goblins (despite knowing that not all goblins are evil, as Duke Horacio points out to him), and receives a [[Karmic Death]] as a result. He also wishes to wipe out the dwarves, even though dwarves are ''not'' a threat to humans.
** Also present is Lord Drakan, who transformed Hallowvale into Mortyania, which is essentially a Death World that's also haunted with various creatures of the night such as vampires and werewolves.
** Also Amascut, who committed genocide on sentient monkeys. There were only three survivors of the incident, and even then, as a result of her actions, one of them is blind, one of them is deaf, and one of them is mute. It's left ambiguous as to whether they each regained their lost sense after Apmeken had her senses restored, though it's likely. She also is responsible for the cruel [[The Caligula| PharoahPharaoh's]] personality, serving as the corrupter. Osman still blames him for what he had done, but he's perfectly willing to face death with dignity either way.

Line 19:
<!-- MOD NOTE: Somebody thinks it should be here, and that's enough reason for it to stay here. -->

* [[Designated Hero]] / [[Villain Protagonist]]: The so-named Wise Old Man. He's remembered fondly by various NPCs in-game and is a key character in a few quests, but his pastimes generally involve [[Screw the Rules, I Have a Nuke|abusing his powers]] to break into banks and rob or murder innocents just because [[Dude, Where's My Reward?|he feels he got shortchanged for heroic deeds in the past]]. Miss Schism at least realizes that he's responsible for robbing the bank though.

Line 59:
** The trickle of coins when your Ring of Wealth affects a drop. Interestingly enough, this can also become a [[Most Annoying Sound]] while fighting Cave Horrors, since it plays after ''every single kill,'' regardless of the drop's value.
** The sound of a fire spell hitting alternates between this and [[Hell Is That Noise]], depending on who the caster is. Doubly so for ice spells.
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: The [[Boss Banter]] before fighting Leeuni, where she will gleefully describe {{spoiler|crushing the monkey colonist's heads and drinking their intestines}}, before attempting to do the same to you.
* [[Paranoia Fuel]]: While on the Desert Treasure quest, you'd better bank those Diamonds of Azzanadra until the final part of the quest. If you don't, {{spoiler|you may get randomly attacked by a stranger with a poisoned dragon dagger. He CAN and WILL use the special. And yes, this can happen in your house.}}
* [[Player Punch]]: Players who have become fond of {{spoiler|Hazelmere the ancient gnome mage, Cyrisus the fighter, Ghommal the giant door man, Sloane the Strength master, and the Slayer Masters Duradel and Turael}} may feel like they've been punched in the gut when all of those people {{spoiler|die confronting Lucien during ''While Guthix Sleeps''}}. And people who became fond of {{spoiler|Princess Astrid and Prince Brand}} may feel like crying after they {{spoiler|die fighting the Dagganoth Kings}} in the Blood Runs Deep Quest. It doesn't help that you {{spoiler|married the one opposite to your gender a few moments before!}}
Line 84 ⟶ 83:
** The introduction of microtransactions and particularly the associated changes to the rules and terms of use were poorly received.
** '''Every''' update gets this reaction from at least one section of the [[Broken Base]].
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: Anyone scared of spiders, stay the hell away from the 2009-2010 Halloween Event. Seriously.
