Steel scimmy upgradez!!11!!

The Story
I was crafting gold one day at the Al-Kharid furnace, when a level 15 with iron and steel armour starts exclaiming "OMG! Theres Steel scimmy upgradez!!11!!" He himself was wielding a steel scimitar, and I didn't know what he was talking about. He kept babbling on with this for about 2 minutes, and just before I was about to report him for spamming (just for fun), a level 93 walks in with a rune scimitar. You know how they got those graphical updates (Animation Pack 1)? He had confused the shining of it for a steel scimitar. I pointed out to him that he himself was weilding a steel scimitar, but to no avail. Then he said he would look it up in the game manual... guess who was right? Me, of course. Now he knows he should read the updates more often.
