Jagex won't have there own servers they will just rent or lease them from a data center. http://www.webfusion.co.uk/dedicatedservers/ http://www.fasthosts.co.uk/dedicatedservers/ Note that unlimited traffic on all dedicated servers. Normally with a dedicated server your only restricted by the server itself, the traffic doesn't come into play too much. You cache the images/models, animation sequences and so on when the game is loading. Most of the time all the data that is sent is merely a few bytes. The server then returns all the new variables and Java displays them. Your not actively pulling textures, models or other large files all the time. The loading time between sections is mostly client based. At most your receiving the tile map of that location. Each server acts on its own, but is synced up with the master server at a given time. This is why during the crash code instance servers where going down on there own and not altogether. As for how powerful the server would have to be moderately, but nothing amazing. Remember that most of the time its just reading/writing/querying the database(s) behind the game and then returning the values. About 80% of the work (if not more) is done on the client; all the rendering, calculations, etc. The 10 million players downloading 50mb at a time is bs. One or a few master servers send the update to the other servers, these then send them out to the client. Your talking 2000 downloading 50mb at the one time at most. The high end servers you linked to were £3000 a year, and that's for major countries - your likely going to spend more in other areas.

Then detail how it doesn't and respond to the points, or I'll be forced to assume that you have no logical response to back up your opinion and have simply given up. how about i annoy you and say no i have read alot of your posts atleast 200+ and i know alot about you just from the way you talk youll most likely shove some facts in my face and say im wrong and guess what I USUALLY AM look take your two sense and just leave me alone i do not need to argue with someone about this i wanted to know what people thought about pvp not you and guess what i DO NOT argue with people LIKE YOU and guess what i bolded those SO you AND YOU only would know this not any other reason so really talk about pvp NOT old past wild and saying all that (if you say i didnt put in facts look what i just said again AND READ IT) Soo, your not arguing with me because "you think your wrong"? Then why not edit out the first post and ask for a lock? #-o look don't you get it this was supposed to be used for those angered by pvp not people like you who put so much in and argue with the link creators http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=783809 "You need to present a valid argument for your rant and back it up". So your saying you'd rather have no RS at all then RS without pking exactly how you want it? Just making sure I know your viewpoint before I begin the debate.

So, how much testing have you done? Remember, it only affects RARE drops. At least 100 drops would be required to establish an accurate conclusion. Come back when you've got 200 d plate legs. Until then, you have no proof whatsoever. Oh, and since most of Specters profit comes from non-rare drops that neither ring affects, they have nothing whatsoever to do with it. Read up on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability

Yup. http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/rose-tinted+glasses Welcome to the wonderful world of Anti-RWT, the only option other then shutting down RS. Which they still do. Oh, so in the old wildy if you teleported into a clan they would serenade you and give you flowers? Hope it satisfies you.

They are putting back the old wild. It's called bounty hunter. bounty hunter will never be like old wild NOT EVEN CLOSE you fought and didnt care about losing in bh its just a huge clan of people killing you old wild you had 1-2 fights earn you like 10 mill i mean really have you ever been in wildy in the past? I'm afraid your viewing it through rose-tinted glasses. There are clans in BH, but they are easy to avoid (just like real wildy), and PKers still use the same gear. Very, very rare to get anything better then a whip in old wild, and you rarely got those off of skilled PKers.

I love dead lift. I max over 2x my weight with trap bars, and I have a BMI of 22. Work out at the gym a lot after I get home from work. Lifting index of 4.9, not bad for how tall and lanky I am :lol:

I was under the impression false advertising would increase profits for a company, not decrease. Falsely saying f2p should be a game in itself would make some people not buy member, not make f2p players buy member. Exactly, that's why they did it. But some people seem to think that the CEO is incapable of stretching the truth to generate profit like every other company.

Your forgetting that this isn't simply a server cost, it's bandwidth and replacement cots for very, very high end machines. To simultaneously run up to 2,000 clients is going to require very high end servers, located and maintained in every country, replaced every 2-3 years with redundant backups available. That's not even scratching the surface of bandwidth - when 10,000,000 players download a 50mb+ update\game file as well as streaming 3d models and content, it's a MASSIVE amount of bandwidth required while lag is being avoided at all costs for those actively playing. $3,400 a year doesn't sound that unreasonable.

That's a rant against human nature, not RS...

Like I said, all I need is a link to the thread. Simple enough. I did it. Why should I bother responding to them if they can't bother reading my responses?

Uhh no... No matter how many I get, the hourly rate is still crappy. Also, it was 8 clues in total :lol: :?

Too obviously easy to AFK - it's the only possible reason it would be used. Monsters are aggressive for danger reasons, not so you can train more easily.

Genius! +1 *sigh* Read the replies Last time we tried that, a mod had to come with a rather large fire extinguisher to take care of the epic flame war it spawned. I'm PMing rates to those who need them, but I'm not posting them publicly - people who don't have a clue what they are talking about will mindlessly flame methods without understanding the logic behind them, something that is gained if you have to read through all the replies to obtain the rates.

Not when the link is relevant and backs up your point; otherwise your simply throwing out opinions as "facts".

It's easier than going through and pulling out this when it says more or less the same thing though, you have to agree... :lol: I'd have more respect for you if you just said it without the wikipedia. Some of us like to use sources instead of making up 'facts'; it lends creditability to statements, and gives you a platform to stand on.

I've lost 95m from this, I wouldn't mind a solution. Although I'm doing it atm...

Not bad. I like it :P

Both spots where I've seen them PK at (south of the GE and the general store) are not close enough from a bank to make it there. Yes, it is possible to survive 10 claw specs with prayer, but it's very, very difficult. Claws are immensely powerful. I'm a big advocate of the "pray and die", but you still lose 30m+. At any rate, I'm gearing up and going back out, we'll see how I do if I meet another team :-#

I can see the use, although I've never used the room I can see it being handy for those who do. Isn't this supposed to be in suggestions though? :?

Pro item doesn't help, it just minimizes the damage (To around 30m lost on death when clawing). You have exactly two second to run starting from the time your teleblocked until your bound and getting smashed. Unspamify: [hide=#8][/hide]

Muggi! :shock: :shock: :? :? :o :o :ohnoes: :ohnoes: \ \ And yes, the same applies to magic - I hadn't thought of that. I wonder if we'll ever seen poor enough range weapons to get that also...
