What was so darn good about classic?
30 inventory spaces, however you used it also for carrying armour. Also tip.it had pretty much everything you needed to know.

What was so darn good about classic?
Pk system was far better than at the first days of RS2, however now with all different variations of armours, weapons, etc rs2 p2p beats rsc p2p pkin in my eyes. Some purists also complain that the current system is so much easier in training but if you ask me, that's a stupid comment as you look how hard this game still is if you want to achieve the perfection. In my eyes during RSC times (2001-2003) the community was something we can't anymore get with this large population but as a game it was weaker at pretty much everything. However the current RSC population is in my opinion filled mainly with junk.

They haven't been the strongest monsters for years.

Has King Black Dragon lost it's crown? (A Real Discussion)
It was just about time when we got something stronger than the old poor kbd. The thing is so weak and located in an area where big clans literally 1-2 hit him during their events. Also people are generally now stronger and we got far better armours&weapons than when rs2 came (and kbd was given its current setup) so it would have been ridicilous to do a lower lvl dragon just because that thing is THE king.

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
Dude... You gotta be kidding me.... There are families in hopeless situation and that's a total of 2 situation. Should I post here links to some news links where American mothers or fathers have killed their child(ren)? There also is "normal" people who can actually feel the sadness, sorrow and so on. Their hatred towards people who caused their situation is understandable. Why would I? I don't give more (nor less) worth to an Iraqian family than to any other. In my eyes it's worth as much as your family and I don't for sure move your place either, not even if you sent me tickets. Died in which way? Saddam's regime? Natural death? Iran-Iraq war? After your intervention over 66,000 civilians have died in a military intervention. I'd also happily like to get a source for that number and see where have you gotten it from. My source is http://www.iraqbodycount.net/ Human right issues? Don't you got your problems with them too? Mudering? Didn't you have high rates at them too? There's a difference between helping a nation and attacking them or pressuring them because of your needs. Your current way doesn't stop the things you listed, it just causes their rise. So it would be ok if someone attacked USA as they are producing nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction? :XD: Also do you know anything about that case we were talking about? From your writing it seemed like you randomly tried to put up some pro-war jargon and hoped it would be in a right place.

Clubbing / Disco. <I went! Feedback.
You've been just at wrong places then, bet there's places with less flashy lights, not TOO loud music (so you actually can talk) and who cares about drunk people when you can drink too? :P Lesson number one: never take her to your place. If she got her own place, she most likely isn't underaged. Also if she turns out to be a wolf/manatee/Michael Jackson/Hohto at the morning, you can just sneak out. Pretty much 95% of the women are painful for your wallet. If someone here admits she isn't, gimme a hey :-w

So, you want to kill a Mith Dragon AND finish Otto's tasks?
You don't need to do that quest to get into mith dragons, tho. So far the best non-safespot (I assume they will be removed soon) way to kill them is to arch with a crossbow while protecting from range. The range armour stops magics attacks well, prayer goes for range attacks, good bolts (at least mith, preferably enchanted ruby) hurt it well and so on.

BEST TRAINING GUIDE EVER! (thats uncrowded :D)
For xp they are pretty bad monsters, the trip from the cave to gnome place after 25 legs isn't worth it in my eyes and their drops are horrible. They aren't forgotten, they are abandoned.

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
9/11 Was caused by a "terrorist" group (however you want to understand it), not led by a goverment unlike the crimes made by USA. They also had a motive for it: shake your power and show that you can't just get away without getting something sometimes back too at your own soil. They haven't chosen to fight against you for what you are, they do it for things you've done. Also Bush believing something being right it doesn't mean that would be the best for this world, millions of others or even accepted by your allies. Hitler and other high ranked members of NSDAP believed what they did was right, so did Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot and others. You are right on the criticism, it's same everywhere. No matter what any leader has or hasn't done, he's always been critizised by someone. The only difference between the western world and some dictator led countries is that now the ones who got something to say can say it. With acts like you've done, tens of thousands civilians have already died. The only difference isn't that they've died because of the acts made by Bush, not by these "terrorists". Same time you've given the world a new reason to strike against you and your allies. There's reason why there has been attacks in UK and Spain after Iraq+Afghanistan.

mystics + firewave + range pray works a lot better than that verac set. With mystics I could do easily a lot more than in veracs: in veracs I was barely able to kill 1.

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
Seriously, have you read a single line I wrote? If an average soldier is as ignorant and can understand his native language as well as you do, your future isn't too bright. Sorry for going to a personal stage but I seriously don't feel like writing long posts to get an answer which makes less sense than many statements from our friend George.

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
Yea slightly misread your point there. The prime reason for current situation is in western culture. The number of muslim-muslim wars on 20th century for example wasn't THAT great. They weren't unexistant, but we've seen west-west wars too in a lot larger scale. Probably the best way at the moment would be to build good connections between USA+allies and with the muslim countries. It might be hard at first with all the things done by both sides, but in my eyes it's worth it. We don't need to convert them into western culture or turn into their culture. Both can stay what they are aslong as they got the same aim which is peace. After all the reason for this bothsided hatred is in acts, not cultures or their differences. Limited but important natural resources are one of the "best" ways for wars to start. To start a war you need a reason which usually is power. With a resource that's as limited and important as oil, it's not a miracle that it's one of the main (but not the only!) for powerpolitics. It doesn't matter does over 70% of Y country's oil come from counry X at the moment, it's more important who got big enough stock when it really is almost out. Please, open your mind. When we take examples from other places too than Iraq, we enlarge the view and show new points/proofs/whatever to our thoughts.

My internet - the most painfully slow in the world
Scan your comp from spyware, malware and other junk. Without proper protection it's dirty easy to get them. Tip.it guides give good tips which programs to get, how to use them and what to do. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=521606 http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=521610 http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=521604 Another possibilities are that if you are using a shared connection (i.e. with your neightbours) someone else is leeching it all with his downloads or if you got wlan, someone is using it without permission.

What Makes Good Music?
In my eyes it's the atmosphere in the music. Musical skills can do it, the attitude in general might do it, it might be the vocals, all together or so. Musical skills don't really matter there, it's not like you could play some instrument "wrong" or "right" as it's "right" when it sounds good in someone's ears.

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
Agunimon979, please describe me what's terrorism. In my eyes it has nothing to do with your examples: terrorism is nothing physical if you look deeper at it and it's not the same for every one of us. The one who is hero for you most likely is an enemy to someone else and visa versa. In current american jargon terrorism is something that we all know to exist, but we don't know what is it. Is it their way to hurt our people, is it our way to hurt their people, is it our way to affect to their economical and social situation on theirs attempt to do the same for us or do both sides have the same rules? The current way how USA is acting isn't going to stop terrorism or "terrorism", however you wanna call it. Anti-american feelings don't disappear when you bomb Bagdad, drive them into a civil war, pressure Iran or kidnap the citizens of a country that belongs to the European Union. If you forgot it, there's still people: families who have lost their closest ones, children without parent(s), young men who have lost their brothers and people who saw how their future turned into piles of rocks. Religion is the only thing they got left and when you got nothing left, you're an easy catch for fundamentalists. That's one way for them to defend: they are under attack, even tho we don't really call it like that. This "terrorism" is their way fight the fight as they don't have the proper equipment for it. Allahs, mullahs, pullahs or other things like that are just one excuse to hire people, not the reasons for the anti-american feelings there. It's pretty funny how one mantra of yours is that you're bringing democracy to the areas you are invading. What is democracy in your eyes. In my eyes the things you are doing got nothing to do with it. Just because you can vote it doesn't mean we'd be in a democratic country: we also seem to forget that in a democratic country (at least one type of a western democratic) everyone should have equal rights for a fair trial and in being innocent until proven guilty. baron8000, first of all just because there has been many wars it doesn't mean it couldn't turn into a better place. How many wars was in europe during last few decades? What has caused the wars there? Exactly, there hasn't been too many wars betweens muslims there. Mostly it has been Israel vs some of them, USA vs some of them or something that has gotten its fuel from the international situation. I mentioned Israel there even tho it's a country located in that are for few specific reasons: that country was pretty much found by Europeans and filled with immigrants in a place that was property of someone else, thus it can't really be compared to Iran or Iraq for example. Also with that attitude we can never solve the problems: Near East is a dirty important place for the next few decades because of its natural resources. Totally abandoning it would just mean a huge catastrophy to western countries and someone else going there, with or without same ways to get the oil as USA is doing it at the moment.

Fastest EXP possible in game? ~ Now with table! 1000+ views!
Don't forget doing your watermelons, torstols and other random stuff too. With a good timing, they add a really nice extra xp to the total during a 24/h period. The fastest possible farming xp would definately be buying magic trees to your PoH, plant them, dig up, repeat and have normal trees, fruit trees, calquats, torstols and watermelons growing same time. It gives the same xp as in construction and is dirty expensive way, but during a 24/h period you can definately get more xp that way than doing anything normal. Of co

The war in iraq, What do you think we should do?
Did you even bother reading the link I posted? You kidnapped a German civilian who had almost the same name as some terrorist. He got tortured for months without any fair trials. In my eyes that's a goverment led terrorism with random arrests. With random things like that you don't get less 9/11's. With acts like that you actually give people a reason to do them. They don't attack you just because you're USA, they attack you for what you've done at their place. There's always a reason for things. Whole this war against terrorism just makes me sick. You close your eyes for your mistakes and punish others for theirs. If you can kidnap and torture civilians just because of their names, declare unofficial financial wars on other countries and try to get big corporations with you at it and same time you even plan to do things that cooler your relations to Russia, you can't talk about war on terrorism. The only differences between terrorists and the goverment of USA are money, education and power. They can't talk about all this jargon you do, they don't have the power to attack other countries like you've done and they don't have the knowledge you do. The problems in Iraq are caused by mainly you. Saddam was your ally even after he had done some of the crimes he had been accused of, so your excuses at that point are more than lame. Second, with the threaties at 90s, you caused more dead Iraqian civilians than Saddam. 3rd, with your war you caused a civil war there. Great job there indeed and you're still thinking it was great.

undeclared financial war on Iran
You did not answer to my question. What makes their strikes terrorism and yours war against it? What even is terrorism? In my eyes kidnapping a citizen of a country that belongs to the European Union during his personal vacation is far away from democracy. Not to mention he didn't have any fair (or even any kind) trials, he was being tortured and so on for months. In my eyes no democractic country can pressure any other countries in a way USA has. If you can attack a country without UN's agreement and call other countries with names like "undemocractic" or "terrorist supporting" as they listen to their citizens and don't go to your war, you're far from being democratic. I'll combine these as you obviously don't see the differences and similarities. When you went for Iraq, it was same kind of an obvious enemy was Iran is now. They had their military, officers, equipment and so on. However techinally, morally and by size Iran is far ahead of Iraq. The Iraq army on this decade has been far from being powerful or not even good. First of all, reducing them to somewhat wiser amounts wouldn't take away the fear factory. Currently it's ridicilous how USA and Russia got more nukes than they can ever use. Also your statement of Allah's lap is a bit too stereotypical. Pakistan for example can be seen as a radical country, yet they got nukes and haven't used them even against their rival India. Yes, spreading them of course increases the chances of them going to wrong hands. However we should fight to reduce the amount of them to minimum and drop the ability to use them as low as possible. One solution introduced by few antinuclear persons is to drop their amount to as low as possible and then put them into a stage where it would take around a week or two to rebuild them and after that start paying enough attention that none of the countries could rebuild them. That way the enemy couldn't get too many of them before we'd have ours and thus the fear factor would stay.

undeclared financial war on Iran
Lordkrohn1626, I already once asked it in this thread, but what's terrorism they are supporting and how is it different from the terrorism you're currently doing all around the world? A full war against them at their ground at the moment was pretty much what I meant, but anyways if you now went into bombing them back to stone ages like you said it, what would happen to your Iraq front? Exactly: it would get a new enemy. Also when did you last time compare Iraq's and Iran's armies? Iran is a lot head of current (or pre-2000s) Iraq at almost everything. You also mentioned this "peekaboo" warfare. Do you seriously think it wouldn't also happen at Iran if you went against them? Most likely it would just be larger than in Iraq as it has already shown that it is one possibility for one nation to fight against a stronger conqueror. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=670342 Read that thread and think again what's terrorism and what's war against it. Is it war against terrorism when you're doing the same thing as your enemies are doign to you? Don't put words into my mouth. Even you said it yourself that at the moment you wouldn't be able to take over Iran. Also if you need 40% of your soldiers to even be in those countries, how can you even think of starting a full land war against Iran? The point isn't that you haven't reduced them. The point is that the reduces are ridicilous. This world isn't any safer place when it can be destroyed x-2 times where x is a big number. Even reducing yours and Russia's nukes to half wouldn't be anything else than a good start.

27.6.2007 Slowly but sure kicking closer. Been a bit inactive lately, just haven't felt like playing. Next weekend I'll be drinking myself into a platapys, from friday morning till sunday night. Because of that, don't expect to see any heroic acts at weekend from me, I most likely won't get levels then even to xp wise could be possible.
