Runescape is written in java, so yes you need java.

Java is as simple as

pacman -S jre

K i did what you said and installed pacman -S jre, and still when i go to the website it still tells me i need java to play the game

Maybe you need to log out/log back in? JRE, I think, is installed in /opt, so it is necessary to resource /etc/profile file so the path variable gets updated.

You better respond with an answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude...this is not a good way to title a post in a free support forum. But since I'm so nice, I'll give you an answer anyway: Baltimore!

That aside, I prefer using openjdk6, a free implementation of the Java runtime environment. Works for me.

by the way, your subject line makes you sound like an asshole.

I agree with the above... we better respond? Seriously. I like helping out people, but not when they demand help 'or else'. If it's a joke, sorry, but it's not a very good one. People help others here as a _favor_. We're not paid drones.

Especially when half of your question is addressed in the Wiki.

EDIT: Others beat me to it - don't want to seem like I'm beating a dead horse, sorry.

My apologies. This is a young archlinux member. He is 13

Forgiven But check the thread in 'Try This' -- we have other members near his age too (I'm 16) who are more.... courteous.

Age is no excuse for lack of manners . And, if a user can run Arch when he's 13, I guess he can also check pacman for how it does what it does - the manual, the help files, the wiki.

On that note - we hope everybody learns. Closing.
