Name of in-game account you want to buy: SmdJagex

What's the reason you want to buy this name?: an absolute legend in my eyes and from what i understand hes not coming back. mostly just had questions about if i even could, I also would have no problems returning the acc if for some reason he ever came back
Inactive accounts is a bit of a misnomer, it's more accurate to say it's "never used accounts".
While I can't share the exact rules I use to determine if a name is for sale, if someone actually played on and progressed an account you cannot buy it.

There's no set time, but not everyone logs in every day or checks the forums every day. If someone asks for a name and I approve it it's theirs until they say nevermind essentially. Feel free to message them in game and ask them if they're still interested and tell them to post here.
