I think you missed two parts of my post. The first part was where I covered the fun argument. The second post was where I said I loved the skill and it was one of my favorites.

Since you've edited in extra information, I'll respond to that too: Not unless they say your hard drive was trashed, the only situation where the files would be lost. And reformatting wouldn't help that at all. So are they or arn't they lost? And if you don't want or have them, why are you trying to argue about them? :roll:

Nah, he pulled the 'all my numbers vanished in a flash of computer dust, now leave me alone' argument when I asked for some proof. It was fun while it lasted :|

I am, feel free to ask anyone around this forum. I'd give you a business card, but that's a little too stalkerish for me. Windows allows 3 hardware changes in 90 days, swapping a motherboard only accounts for two. Unless you changed hard drive and ram while your at it, your continuing to make crap up. And the magical computer pixies aren't going to eat your data unless you choose to reformat it without backing up. Oh, and if you've swapped enough hardware to make windows authentication kick in, it's going to do the exact same thing when you try to key in the code on the reinstall. It's tied to the code, not the system. If it's a driver issue and not the authentication kicking in from a smaller hardware change, it's a matter of booting off a disk and updating the BIOS drivers. =D> Also, it still doesn't matter in which way your numbers vanished. Show some proof in your argument or shut up. Come back if you get more, but make sure they're reliable - we have thousands of hours of testing behind ours.

Here's a suggestion: Read the replys before posting on this thread, just like it says in my first post. Zarfot already posted on this thread, and after almost 2,000 pages of debate everything was settled and my rates were proved correct due to numerous variables in his, including banking time and summon methods used. Oh, so now your going to make up crap about losing your rates? Well, let me know when you re test then and your welcome to come back and argue them. Until then, I'm afraid my, Qeltar's, Zarfot's, ydraisel, Inushkant, and langerkiller's rates trump your non-existent ones. I have no idea what your trying to prove by saying your ordering a new motherboard, that has precisely zero to do with reformatting and backing up. Don't try to make stuff up, I've been a computer consultant for almost 2 decades :roll:

Yep. I love slayer, and I was hoping someone could prove me wrong on my theory that the XP is bad. Pop on over to it, we have a new person who seems determined to present another argument. I quote him: "That would be 75-90k in a single stat (I just thought I'd do the math for you because it seems that you are extremely dim-witted)" He's already in the 'think I'm an idiot' stage, so this argument should be a bit faster paced \ I'm not sure if I should be insulted or feel sorry for him :lol: My wife might be offended...

That's nice to know. Good thing I already said I used a wihp on controlled, no? Now your 110k an hour would be very interesting if slayer consisted of killing necheryaels 24\7. Since you seem to be so confident in your numbers, I'll do you a favor and prove you wrong. OK, before I start the argument, I'm going to need 3 things: #1, a complete listing of your XP rates obtained on each task #2, a complete listing of your drops, profit rates, and expenses for each task, with and without rare drops factored in, as well as your personal rare drop rates #3, a complete listing of banking times used for each task #4, details on inventorys and equipment used for each task, along with an itemized list of prayers, potions, and summons used. If your interested in some examples, take a look at a few of mine. They can be found around page 15. You might have to root through a couple ppages for the itemized listing, it spans over several. Once I have your numbers, I'll compare them to mine and start debating over the differences. That way we can identify the exact source of the discrepancies and begin comparing rates and timings with additional testing. No worries, as previous arguments have shown I am indeed capable of doing basic multiplication. Scoring an IQ of 143 would have been rather difficult if such advanced mathmatics was beyond my comprehension. Oh, you mean those things that rich noobs with too much money waste their GP on? Yes, that was sarcasm. I'll enjoy hearing your exact numbers.

Loot from theving is the point, not XP. Who cares if a boss gives a few hundred theving XP instead of a hilt? If it gives no advantage whatsoever, no one is going to use it. Make up your mind.

Time goes by fast at GWD too. GWD got me way over 800m PROFIT, so it is good money seeing the times goes by fast. Yeah, and I'll bet you used the magical fairy godsword too. Sorry, but individualized testing results make me slightly more confident then a random number you pulled out of your behind.

Obviously everything is interconnected; I'm simplys aying that it hinges on the frontal lobes. Without full maturation, as reached around age 25, all the sections influencing maturity aren't complete. It's the final step in my statement of a 10 year old not being fully mature. Thanks for pointing out what I was too polite to say. Browse over to 'lending GE' to see more examples of brilliant counterarguments like "this is again just an idea. i bet uve thought of something that would never work, and i doubt most of anything u support on TIF or RSOF is possible."

I don't believe in it. Are you arguing or agreeing with me? Not that it matters, as you said you 'don't even know what I'm talking about".

I'm training in a PVP world right now. I wish they could, but all training areas would instantly be clogged with macroers trained to tele in case of a fight.

That's what I meant. They can set a TOS, but they can't do anything about violations - it's open source code.

I literally just got a random. I was at demons. Killed one, got a whip. Got teled away to maze as I clicked to pick it up. It wasn't there when I got back. Slightly annoying.

Ok, even I have to call them out on this...

Very cool

I dunno. If it's under the GPL, I think they can still claim restrictions on usage for things like child pornography. Though I don't see how they could enforce it.

Because then you'll get a massisve increase in the number of rare drops, killing the price of ALL rare items and screwing the economy. And now we have no advantage whatsoever to using this. Yay.

And it's just as useful for mages. Already proved that mages could easily take down a meleer without farcasting, if you had a high enough magic level to try it you'd soon see what I meant. It's not required, but it helps guarantee a kill - just as it does for melee and range. Then don't argue about it. No one asked you to come in, so don't whine when arguing. I enjoy it, you can either agree with me or argue =D> Oh, so you've used Zuriel's staff now? Good, now you can begin to grasp the issues surrounding Miasmic barrage. Oh wait, your FTP, and level 50 mage. Ever heard of something called prayer? Yeah, I have. It's one of those things completely non-essential and very rare for a level 35 mage (or melee\range, for that matter)

To rant, not make up a complete lie based on incomplete information and start crying when people prove them wrong.

It's basically the same, only smaller with some of the sections cut out.

You might want to take a look at this: Now, that being said, onto the debate. I never said adults never complain; your welcome to point out that line to me. I'm an adult, and I complain all the time. So it has nothing whatsoever to do with my posts. Like I said, the first post had very little discussion value on the grounds that it was horrendously badly thought out. The whole hypothalamic region doesn't apply as much to this debate. We're discussing long term decision making and consequence identification skills; it's unquestionably the frontal lobes, and if they aren't mature your not physically capable of thinking it through in the same manner as an adult. Hence the production of threads like this one. Yes, your brain is at the most active stage because it is developing. Sorry, but it's a plain medical fact that children have different thought processes then adults. Go back and look at some of the links I've posted; children can appear mature in decisions stemming from short term consequences, but the thought pattern is different then that of a fully mature adult. The april fool's censor, they took it off last night so you should be good now.

Basically the simple version of what I'm saying. You can't be fully mature if your brain's not mature - your brain IS you. No other system in your body regulates maturity, though the pituitary gland can have some effect on it.

Do we have to follow the phb terms of service along with tip.its? As long as we want to use the phb boards... :lol: You guys are mixed up. phpBB is licensed under the GNU GPL, which gives anyone the right to change and redistribute the source code of phpBB and ensures that any redistributed modifications of the original package also provides the source code. There are, however, no "phpBB terms of service". What you agree to when you join a phpBB forum can vary from forum to forum, as the terms of agreement are entirely editable, and the content is entirely up to the administrators of said forum. I was under the impression that the GPL also allowed for restrictions on code use, and I figured this would fall under them. I didn't know that rule existed, but I'm pretty sure it could under the GPL.

He's right. 2 people have won an argument against me. Fortunately, it was a long time ago and my fault that time. I've learned from my mistakes ;)
