    I don’t get why the article image shows NES and SNES game packages, for an article about Oldschool Runescape and money theft?

      Several other articles on the site’s front page also use the same image. Maybe it’s a placeholder nobody is replacing?

        Oh right, looks like a default image, if nothing was specified (laaaaaazyyyy). Yeah, that’s probably it. I thought this was chosen manually and was baffled. Thanks pointing that out. Edit: Now you mention that, I can see the same image for the listed articles on the right column.

    They don’t mention it in this article, but in 2022 he won an unfair dismissal lawsuit against Jagex. He was awarded just over £1000 in compensation apparently because the Judge was not satisfied that Jagex investigated the issue fairly. Even so, he believed that had they investigated it fairly they would have still come to the same conclusion and dismissed him anyway. lmao
