The funniest thing about RuneScape is during it’s early days. If a player misbehaved, they wouldn’t be banned as there still was no banning system at the time. Instead, the player would be sent to an area called “The Black Hole”, which was just the voids of nothing outside of the world map. In “The Black Hole”, players could not move or interact with anything. All they could do is just stand in the void and contemplate what they did wrong.

Even better, because lots of players wanted to see what the Black Hole was like, they would purposely break rules so that they could get in there. To circumvent that, Jagex (the company that owns RuneScape) added a place where players could visit the Black Hole. In order for the visitors to get out, they had to use an item called the Disk of Returning.

Because chatting was not restricted in the Black Hole, mischievous players would convince visitors that if they dropped their disks, “something cool would happen”. Of course, when they did, they got permanently stuck. Jagex had to individually move innocent players back out of the void, and eventually they just did away with the whole thing.
