Follow

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

Follow is a Player option accessed by right-clicking another player and picking "Follow". While follow is active, the following player will go wherever the leader goes. This feature is frequently used by friends who are playing together, groups of players going to the same destination, and players who are guiding other players when they don't know their own way. Following is canceled by any number of things, such as clicking to walk anywhere, sending trade offers, or putting on and taking off equipment.

Players with Run on while following a walking leader will walk behind them until they start running, in which case they too will begin running. Players without Run on will not automatically start running when a player they are following starts running, but Run can be toggled on and off without disrupting the follow command. Another aspect of Following players should be aware of is that when following another player while running, it is easy to get stuck behind fences, trees, and other obstacles, which can leave players behind.

[edit] Taxi

Taxis, also called trains, are a method of informal transportation wherein a player or group of players will follow a lead player to reach a destination. Sometimes this is because a player doesn't know their way, or they simply do not wish to walk themselves. Players will sometimes act as taxis for pay, though a transaction is risky because there is no guarantee that either end will hold up their side of the bargain. More often, a taxi is used without permission when a follower knows that a leader is going to a particular location, for instance a bank or a particular Runecrafting altar.

[edit] Dancing

When two players follow each other, they will circle around one another as if they are dancing. The same also works for a group of three or more players following each other, however this usually results in a chaotic mass of players rather than the "dancing" motion that occurs when two players do it.
