[Q] Joke reports

Postby Kshemarashtram » Sun Sep 20, 2026 4:59 am

Am I allowed to make joke reports?

The downside is that it wastes the mods' time.

But the upside is that it may make them (and other people) laugh, which indeed renders the aforementioned downside null-and-void, as the indomitable Chaplin said, "a day without laughter is a day wasted". So time spent laughing can, by (Chaplin's) definition, never be wasted time.

This is a serious question, I must add. I didn't find any rule about this in the OSRS, so I thought it'd be better to seek clarity on the rules before taking any such action. The forum in general, and Moderation in particular, is mostly a ghost town anyway, and can't possibly be contristated by some mirth. But whatever you tell me the rule is, I shall act accordingly.

Change the word “mods” with “police officers” in the sentence you just wrote and then read it again for me, please. Hope that makes you understand how dumb of a proposal this is
Fortitudo in Varietate, Gaudium in Unitate
A “confederation” of 10 substantially independent states, sharing (most of) the continent of Gursedland on planet Bearth.
Random 18 yo Italian dude with nothing of substance about his life (according to him).
Likes some things, hates other things, maybe he's funny, he's certainly socially paranoid, and has no idea why he's talking in the 3rd person rn.
I created also Comicsland and The Socialist World Republic of Cats, if you remember those
Anyways, byeee!!

Okay, I declare that I shall not make joke reports. May I know what specific rule it breaks before I leave?

They are not equivalent though. Police officers handle serious things like crimes and arrests, while forum moderators are just to ensure that the forum remains civil. The stakes and consequences are way different. I enquired about it before engaging in any such conduct, and since I've been told it won't be allowed, I have stated that I won't do it.
