Tip.it Times 21 March 2010
No comment on the first one... I'm 100% F2P... :( As for the second one, I feel the author is right on. RuneScape needs more to the Multi-Player Quests than it currently has. B) ~Mr. D. V. "I knew something was lacking... But just couldn't pin this part down..." Devnull

Hmm... Gee... Why don't I? Maybe it is because of the fact that I don't have a wii, and I don't know anyone locally that does have one? 5612 ~D. V. "You'd think someone would think of that..." Devnull

And then, of course, there's Aeon with "Time, heed me! ....... STOP!", followed by that absolutely dazzling/hilarious sequence. :XD: I'll admit, I've only seen various player-made runs of that game on YouTube, including full story runs. But I must say that game is mentally attractive enough to want to play it at least once myself. :^_^: 5615 ~D. V. "LOL" Devnull

nooby smithing help
Yomyth105, trying to do Knight's Sword is near suicide for most lower level players... I personally suggest you mine and smith all your own Copper/Tin ores into bronze items, and sell them to shops. You'll make a nice small mint on the way, too. It will take 715 Bronze Bars, but it will be well worth the lack of danger and time spent. Further, it will skip you past all that Iron stuff, allowing you to not waste any ores at all. B) Good Luck, Have Fun, and Enjoy RuneScape! :thumbsup: ~Mr. D. V. "The fun is in the journey... Rushing it isn't as fun..." Devnull

Best F2P Weapons/Armor?
I disagree with those who think the Combat/Druidic robes from FoG are great for mage. Especially seeing as they don't provide enough melee/range defense, which is critical when training in places where dangerous monsters are present. Worse, those FoG-based robes happen to need recharging every so often, making them far from worth their ultimate costs. <_< Instead, I personally recommend the Full RuneCrafter Robe Set (Hat, Gloves, Chest Robe, and Skirt) for training. While it may take a little while to obtain at the GOP minigame, and basically requires Level 50 RuneCrafting to have access to acquire, it has saved me from quite a few bad situations before. Paired with Leather Boots, any (Team or not...) Cape, Staff of Fire, Amulet of Power, and an Anti-Dragon Shield, it becomes quite the combination to move around and destroy monsters in. Plus, it requires no recharging and leaves you somewhat safely armored. Can't really beat that, now can you? :thumbsup: Last Note... Using any shield other than the Anti-Dragon in F2P will badly hurt mage bonuses... Please take this into consideration before you use something else. :-? ~Mr. D. V.

A DUCK!
I'm only a basic photo utility user, but it looks to me like you missed part of the boots on your WOW character by accident. If you can, re-screenshot, re-clip, and add those in there. Beyond that, maybe add a gradient to the background if you wish to. But other that that, it looks rather nice to me. :thumbsup: BTW, good luck making a signature version if you decide to. :grin: (Your current design for it is too large for this forum, sorry. :sad: ... I suspect you are designing it for another place entirely, though? :huh: ...) ~D. V. Devnull

In the famous words of Simon Belmont, "Ni-i-i-i-ice Try!" ... :boohoo: <*DVD pulls out the famous Vampire Killer whip, boosted with several things of his own (so he will never feel any side effects) on the glove holding it, and suddenly deals 99 rather nasty whip hits to Napalm_Death ... DVD appears 15 feet off of Napalm's other side, and Napalm collapses to the ground behind him.*> :ph34r: That is what you get when you test the power of someone that can PWN you. :twisted: Now... where were we? Ah, yes... 5619 B) ~Mr. Delta Varuna "And you thought only a Belmont could handle that whip? I can as well!" Devnull (p.s.: Don't edit your post... You've already been had.)

Whoa, whoops... I didn't catch notice of the change, then. :oops: ... Strange that it took my browser a day or two to refresh it, though. :-k ... My apologies (Really, I'm sorry :( for seeming like such an awful nag!) to Tip.It's Staff, and thanks for getting rid of the ";]" attachment. You rock! :thumbsup: ~Mr. D. V.

Browser of choice?
Glad to see you too. :) Thanks to privacy filtering that's in-place, there's no problems here with IE6, given what little it gets used for ... However, my parents and I didn't upgrade for two reasons... One, the added bugs that came with IE7 and later... Two, would have resulted in that MicroSoft-made virus known as 'WGA' infecting my parents' Win XP systems. (As you can figure, that's not acceptable.) <_< Maybe that's why I'm having a small issue between FF 3.5.7 and Java 1.4.2 ... Well, that, or the fact that RuneScape does some really unusual stuff, seeing as I don't have trouble with other Java applets. :roll: ... BTW, did you know a lot of people that have FF 3.6 and Java 6u10 (or later) are having problems with RuneScape? I begin to think the last good FireFox was the 2.0.0.x series. Paired with Java 6u6, it's insanely stable. :huh: ~D. V. Devnull (p.s.: I know someone's going to try to go at me for what I know 'WGA' to happen to be under the hood... Just freaking don't... I'm about 16 shades of "Death to MicroSoft!" already... Personally, I'm going to stop following this thread anyway, so I won't see any replies.)

Corrupt a Wish (IT's over Nine Thousand)
They finally do turn themself in, but they just happen to be carrying a bomb on their body, which has the untimely consequence of going off right next to you, causing you to get killed along with them. Oh well, we will just call your next-of-kin, if you have any... :boohoo: I wish for a permanent end to ever having more nightmares, preferably without crippling my body or dying... :twss: ~Mr. "nevermind, I know something's coming" Devnull (p.s.: You know I'm royally joking around, right?

"Acronym" tag... Adding ";]" in posts?
Don't worry, your post makes perfect sense. (Albeit, slightly typo'd, but that's no problem.) And yes, I understand the tech admins have a lot to deal with. TBH, I'm personally just glad/thankful/etc. to have any post whatsoever from any Admin/Mod, which means at least someone in the staff has read it... :thumbsup: BTW, I think this thread does file under "Suggestion", if not "Bug Report", lol :lol: ... so no worries there. |^_^| I bet, however, that a Tech Admin will have to reply to the following :? ... Unless I miss my guess, reconfiguration of things like markings for acronyms should be possible to handle directly in the ACP? :-k ... Perhaps either in a CSS handler, or a 'skin images' interface? I could be wrong, though, seeing as it has been ages since I actually had to handle an Invision-based forum myself. (Was from being in a clan for a short period, haven't been in one since due to IRL stuff...) Although, I would hope that going all the way to the base code (e.g., something that can't be handled in the ACP) wouldn't be needed? :huh: I'll stand back and wait for additional comments/information/thoughts... Again, I'm thankful to at least know Tip.It's Staff are aware of this thread. :thumbup: ~D. V. Devnull

Browser of choice?
(Pre-Note: You're going to have to pardon any language I use here... And my radical opinions... Microsoft's IE browser makes me mad. :angry: ...) I voted before, but failed to post about my voting choice. I currently use FireFox, both 2.0.0.x and 3.5.x series. However, should their interface start looking IE8-ish with the release of FireFox 4.0, I will flat stop using FireFox, period. One of the reasons both I and my parents left IE was to escape that kind of "make it look fancy" crap, and I simply won't be dragged back into it. Also, I was sick of not being able to maintain local security, and FireFox helped greatly with recovering a lot of that via AdBlock Plus. (Although I must admit that the latest versions of ABP annoy me with that "wizard-style interface"...) Stack on a whole bunch of additional extensions (1 not by choice, thanks to HP Corp., and 2 from Mozilla in FF2-series, damnit...) and I'm pretty much in browser heaven right now. However, I won't touch FF 3.6 due to how Mozilla harmed their own Personas extension, and how it automatically blocks user choice in older Java versions. (Truely stable loadouts, IMO, are FTW... Conspiracys can burn in flames.) And I wish they'd kept a FF 2.0.0.x version posted for those with old browser nostalgia. <_< BTW, I should drop in screenshots of what I have loaded in my FF profiles... Stay tuned! :^_^: Also, I've pretty much made sure that I don't even have (or need) a copy of IE7/IE8, and the IE6 I do have only gets used in the absolute event that I can't avoid it, but even then, it gets heavily filtered. Put simply, someone wants to decide to limit my choice in browser, then they will have to live with my rules as well. They don't make the page compatible with my security requirements and/or choice of browsers, then they don't get my page views. :ugeek: ~Mr. D. V. "MS's recent IE versions can pretty much go to hell... and anything that even looks like it..." Devnull

<*DVD teleports in a fridge-safe (as secure as the small one with the cookies) full of different sweet desserts, waffles, french toast, and such. Utilizing his own personal shield, he walks to the fridge, and securely retrieves some waffles and a cup of maple syrup, making sure to fully relock the fridge before he walks away. He heads into the kitchen and toasts the waffles into a state that someone would actually use maple syrup with, and then sits down with them in his hands again, waffles and syrup on a plate, and proceeds to eat them.*> There will be some that will teleport into your hands when you begin conversing again, Napalm_Death. Further, I've set up auto-teleports on all that nice, sweet food for everyone else when they begin to be willing to start talking again as well. Oh, and don't worry, food that needs cooking will be taken care of automatically, everyone. Yes, the teleports are set up to read your mind. B) Let's see... and what was that number...

He sets it down on the floor by his chair, and it locks itself into the floor, preventing any form of robbery.*> To get some of those, you must talk... Whether you like it or not... BTW, this thread ain't moving very fast anyway, but tends to move faster when people are conversing about stuff... B) <*DVD opens the safe briefly, grabbing a few of those cookies from the box, locks the safe again before anyone can rob it, and eats the cookies he pulled out before anyone can grab them from him.*> Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
