Advanced Members is something which many of you might not know too much about. It's been largely hidden away for the past few months due to some technical issues we were having, but we're finally ready to officially re-release this group again!

Advanced Members is a special non-staff group here on RuneHQ that costs real money. As of this post, it costs $15 USD per year or $2 USD per month to become an Advanced Member. Not only are you paying a little bit of money to help us maintain the costs for this site, but you will also receive a number of benefits in return.


The following is a list of current benefits that Advanced Members receive.

Forum Battle

  • 2 extra base attacks per each attack session
  • An extra weapon only accessible to AMs. The Korasi's Sword becomes visible when you reach 300 strength.
  • An extra item only available to AMs. The Renewal potion costs 300gp and heals 300 strength and 300 health.
Forum
  • No ads when logged into the forums. There is currently one large square advert to the right of the shoutbox.
  • Your group color has a slight glow effect to it and also sparkles a little!
  • You obviously have access to these private boards
  • You can customize your profile to give a personalized background image (FAQ on how to change it coming soon)
  • There is no search flood control for you anymore meaning you do not have to wait 10 seconds between searching.
  • Your PM storage is increased to 2500 (Established members only get 300).
  • You can remove the "Edited by" text after editing a post if you desire.
  • Within the shoutbox, you are now able to edit and delete your own shouts if needed.
  • Your member title can be changed at any time, regardless if you've reached the post count limit or not.
Miscellaneous
  • First look at any exclusive Jagex images, interviews, etc.
  • First access to early feedback, preview images, and beta tests of any major RuneHQ features.
  • The Advanced Member rank within Ventrilo.
  • Access to an Advanced Member only channel on Ventrilo.



The following is a list of benefits that we are currently investigating:

  • No ads when logged into the website. We are considering allowing AMs to not see any ads on the website as well, but we are currently looking into the cost of this. It may be necessary to add a higher level of Advanced Members at a higher price to make that happen. More info when we know more.
  • Periodic RS merchandise giveaways. This could include items from the Jagex store, RS membership, etc. We are also investigating the price of this right now and will get back to you soon.
  • An opportunity to meet up with a Jagex Moderator live in game every few months. There would be one set time every few months where all AMs could go and talk to the JMod about.. whatever they wanted to. We are waiting to receive a response back from Jagex on this.



If you're still interested, head up to the top of the page and click the Subscriptions link. We only accept payments through PayPal at this time.

Oh cool, maybe now that I'm not in adv. members, I can buy it? XD *goes off to check*

Edit: Nope :( I don't have the option to get adv members. When I click under subscriptions, it just says: There are no products here yet! Please check back soon.

Please let me get? D:

After seeing the Forum Battle stuff, I had to second guess whether or not this was an old post. That was a blast from the past lol, when was it readded?

Meh, I don't come here often anymore, but RuneHQ is still something I'd like to support (and at such a price!), so I think I may go for it ^_^

EDIT:
Someone go approve me now =P

Quote from Edds post in the "RuneHQ Ranks Explained" topic: New Members become Established Members after they make a certain number of quality, non-spam posts. This number is not given out, but is somewhere around 10-50. Established members are our basic, largest user group. They may apply to become staff, or they may donate money to the site and become an Advanced Member.
