Recovery Questions - Important -

Many people still have not set their recovery questions for their Runescape account. If you are not aware of the purpose of setting the recovery questions then you should take a run through the stronghold of security at the barbarian village. It will serve as an ingame reminder on the importance of your overall account security.

The recovery questions should be unique to you, and at no time should you ever reveal them to anyone. Especially not to anyone who you have met through playing runescape as it will enable them to permanently gain control over your playin character.

Jagex are trying to educate all players in Runescape that your account security is the most important aspect for your continued enjoyment of the game. If you have still not set appropriate security questions, then you should do immediately after reading this posting.

Once recovery questions are set successfully, you should still be careful what information you reveal to people when they ask you questions. Always remember to never reveal the information you may have used in setting the recovery questions. It is well known that the most experienced scammers in runescape will befriend people and draw out bits and pieces of information over time before they move in and try to take control of your account.

Jagex designed the stronghold of security to refresh your memory of the importance of your overall account security. My advice is use it before you lose your account.
