Talk:Teleportation

I propose a move to Teleportation as that is a more accurate term. Objections? (Will move in 24 hours if nobody objects).Shadowdancer 03:14, 31 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I agree, as isn't that what is listed in the Magic spellbook? (Or Jagex's KB) Huanghe63 03:36, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately the Knowledge Base article uses both terms; so it is about an equal split. Since the title heading of the article is Teleportation Spells, I would suggest a move to Teleportation with a note in the article, and a redirect from this article. That should cover all the bases.--Curmudgeony 06:31, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Good idea. Huanghe63 03:37, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Gnome Glider
I don't think that using a gnome glider is teleportation. It's transportation, definetely, but it isn't magic, and I thought that was part of teleporting. -- Couchpotato99 03:55, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I always thought of it as a form of teleportation simply because you talk to the gnome, click the map, and 10 seconds later you're suddenly at the top of the Gnome Tree.Shadowdancer 03:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, it is instantenous, but then should we put ships in this article too? -- Couchpotato99 04:00, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Removed.Shadowdancer 04:04, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think if it's almost instantaneous it should be classed as teleportation - so, gnome glider yes, magic carpets no. --Eucarya 07:35, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It isn't really instantaneous, though. You get a cutscene of a map and the glider moves from your current location on the map to wherever you are going, and then you are there. This implies that it does take time and that you are gliding, not teleporting. -- Couchpotato99 19:32, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Drive through, folks. This was resolved a long time ago. Shadowdancer 20:03, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
