13th June 2005 - Rune Shop Changes
We noticed that rune shops were restocking very slowly, so it was difficult to buy runes from them except immediately after the worlds had been rebooted.

We have therefore increased the respawn rate of the shops so that people have a better chance to buy runes from them at any time. This means we have been able to decrease the number of runes in a shop straight after reboot, yet overall have significantly more runes entering the game via shops.

Now runes will be much more fairly distributed amongst people who like to play at different times of day. Since this means that there will now be considerably more runes entering the game through the shops, we have increased the shop prices of the runes to be closer to the prices players generally charge for them.
