They have been for 15 years in that country, some even born there. If you can't learn a language in that time it's your own fault. If they want the same rights as the citizens, they should get their passport. Pretty big minority as it managed to surround the embassy for a week and destroy the centre in few nights in a row. Same minority probably gave the reports with Putin's mouth... I'd also like to see how many Estonians suffered from a conqueror's statue in the middle of their capital city. Second, Russians even used Finnish gravestones as building material in some areas (including Porkkala) which they took from us in wars. Talking about respect...

Every intependend country has the right to do anything they want to statues on their area. Also the bones were properly transfered to a graveyard were the rest of their soldiers sleep. Also get your facts right: they did not destroy it, they kept it in 1 piece and just moved it to a better place. Just a great example how the west should not be too depended on the Russian power. First Ukraine and Georgia, now Estonia. Also this kind of a conflict doesn't start from a statue. There has been a lot of anti-Estonian spirit living among the Russian teenagers who live in Estonia. It's the same as was with the Mohammed cartoon scandal in Denmark: Just a good excuse to start rioting. Look at that link and those pictures I posted. Those criminals aren't there because of the statue, they are there terrorising a foreign country. And how can you defend the communist Soviet Union? Heck, Stalin managed to kill 20 million people even before ww2, more than Hitler. With Molotov-Rippentrop contract he was as much guilty for WW2 as Germany. Germany attacked Poland and Soviet Union attacked Finland. The Soviet Union wanted military bases from the baltic countries and Finland: Finland didn't agree and baltic countries agreed. The rest is history: the baltic countries lost their independence for decades, suffered a big economical catastroph and Finland had 2 wars against the Soviet Union. I totally understand why Russians and the communist time aren't popular in Estonia. In 1930s they were ahead of Finland economically. In early 1990s when they got their intependency again, their economy was pretty much ruined. Thank god our brother nation started its rise fast, tho.

That sounds interesting. Buying 90 rune ores isn't a big deal anyways and selling them to store is a lot faster than the chaos.

Black metal is more than just a subgenre to metal. It's not something you put on after school while watching tv, drink coke and wear a CoF t-shirt which you bought from ebay.

http://publiuspundit.com/2007/04/photos ... _riots.php Here's some pictures of Russian teenagers rioting in Tallinn. History repeats itself...

It has been big for ages, lately he has just turned more against the west. We didn't care when it went for Chechenya, we turned our back when it was for Ukraine and we closed our eyes when it was Georgia. I'd be against that too if I was in shoes. Defence is the best attack and that shield is definately made against Russia and in some cases China. No wonder they are against it. However lets keep this topic in Estonia vs Russia conflict :P Another thing that pissed me off with russia is not allowing russian civilians to be exported (extradited) ...i.e Iam reffering to the Litvenyenko Case were the guy was killed

It's just Russia testing how EU and NATO acts when their smallest country gets into any kind of a conflict. The statue is just a lame excuse for them, first of all Russians are the worst ones to judge moving a statue, they even used gravestones as building material on some areas they took from Finland in ww2. Only mistake Estonia did was that they didn't move/destroy this statue 15 years ago when Russia was weak. Most Estonians don't take Russians as their "freedom givers" like Russians claim they were. The Soviet Union occupied Estonia and with a goverment set by them it became a part of the Soviet Union. Today around 25% of Estonia's population are Russians. Yes, they are russians, not russian speaking Estonians. To get Estonian passport, you need to pass a language test and majority of these haven't bothered to study the language. I personally give respect to Estonian politicians. They had all the rights to do anything they wanted to a statue which is on their soil and they moved it to a better place and transfered the bones to a graveyard where they belong to. They did it even when their conquerors tried to stop them. Estonia's a beautiful and economically rising country. Russians managed to cause a huge downfall to it once, but hopefully last time.

Any info about the new mine yet? Which rocks does it have, how many of them, how close to bank and so on?

Graz :P How many days till we see 99 con? :P

7.5.2007 Getting closer, getting closer... Under 30% left and still kicking. Been working a bit on other skills, could get some easy levels in no time if I wanted to. Oh well, 3,820,532 farming xp to go. At average 7 herbs per seed that would mean approx 5950 kwuarm seeds, 2525 dwarf weed seeds, 4050 cadantine seeds or 9900 irit seeds. Think I buy some seeds when I can... 96 isn't too far away anymore, 470k xp to. Might sound a lot, but heck I've done over 9m xp so that's nothing. Free magic seeds anyone? Naw just kidding, I ain't taking donations.

Go to their website, register (doesn't need a credit card even tho someone said it few posts higher) and download the client. There's a free version of it and a premium version pretty much similar to our p2p. I tried this "game" few days ago after reading an article from a local comp magazine, but it seemed to lag a bit too much.

Phyi, don't forget poor lil Hohto :P Heck, I was a global mod at these boards when duping was going on.

99 attack >< 81 rc 99 str >< 80 agility 99 def >< 85 smith 99 hp >< 88 slayer 99 cook >< 90 mining 99 magic >< 99 construction Why? Because those are slow, boring and painful skills to train and melee skills are one of the easiest ones. Won't even talk about cooking...

They got few power metal stylish things, but if you ask me, they are far closer to death metal than power. However their genre seems to depend really much about who you ask: Finnish wikipedia (CoB's a Finnish band for those who didn't know) calls it extreme metal, English just puts it as metal, allmetal guide puts them under black metal (lol :o ), Encyclopaedia Metallum as to speed-/power category, danish wikipedia as melodeath and so on. However they have said themselves that they started as a thrash metal band and their current stuff is extreme metal with old black, death and classical heavy metal influences.

Black metal: Burzum Darkthrone Volkurah Thymorg Mayhem Gorgoroth Bathory Horna Behexen Graveland Nifelheim Satanic Warmaster MÃÆÃâÃâütiilation Pest (note: there is/has been at least 3 bands with this name) Urfaust Paysage D'hiver Taake Vlad Tepes Death metal: Impaled Nazarene (might be a bit controversial) Deicide Norther Torture Killer Katatonia Profane Omen

30% Xp to go :) Getting closer, in the othe words "only" 3,907,119xp.

Bubble in a which way? They've been the most expensive items for years now, price going up pretty linearry and so on. With the current demand, supply and money brought to the game it's highly positive that they won't burst. If they temporary come down a lot, people will just try to get theirs and bump the price back up that way.

Everyone with a cracker or the ability to get one know for sure that you won't get any special phats from it. It's the most expensive item as there's really few of them left and the fact that even if they got crashed, they would be worth at leats as much as the least expensive phat keeps them high. It's the most popular one too, in the dupe day it was the most produced phat. Also for the time when phats have been dirty expensive, blue has always been the number one. Back when green was the most expensive, it wast still those days when phats could be collected. Rare item prices will go up in a long run, no matter what as long as Jagex doesn't give a new way to get them. Price manipulators, new things to spend on (costruction was a perfect example), new items such as 3rd age and so on can temporary affect to them, but not stop their long time growth. With their current demand and supply they got no chances to drop a lot for a long period of time. People do longtime investions on them, merchant them and use them as status items. Those factors are more than enough to keep the prices high with the current supply. In future the supply will also decrease on bans while new stakers, merchanters and skillers rise the demand. Same time 3rd age armours are being brought to game every day. Eventually people with cash will turn away or already have their 3rd age sets and burst on phats again. Only ways to stop or slow down the rise of rares is to either bring a new way to get them or do new things for people to spend cash on. First option would just cause riots amongs merchant and staker communities as months of hard work would drow down the drain. Quickly after it would mean a lot new gp put to raw materials and made their prices skyrocket. Second could work for a while, but I seriously doubt Jagex would every month offer us a new expensive skill or new ultimate rare items. Skillers would just boycott these skills (I'd do too if they now gave us few new skills which are at least as expensive as construction) and drained some affect away from them that way. I'm just personally waiting the day when all these kd hunters start emptying their banks and investing on rares or the richest stakers start doing skill total...

The topic was about the end of the world and others pointed out things which fit to our friend George.

Found an npc called Felkrash from Port Sarim rat dungeon, but she's only willing to give names to lazy and wily cats :|

Yea I know there's still something legal in the internet and actually I've tried to spread the word about some talented bands which are giving freebies at the internet. However when bands like Megadeth and Dream Theatre are both mentioned in an AoW guide, there should be some bells ringing. At the moment it seems nothing is even done about these copyright breaks.

So, after a little break from having a virtual pet, I decided to get a new cat tonight. However, I can't seem to find the place where to give a name to it anymore and tip.it pet care guide couldn't answer either. So, where is this mysterious place located? :oops:

Better to stock up with glories than use the teletabs. Why? Because home teles can be sold at around 2k per. If you go for even a bit more serious rcin, it soon gets cheaper to buy 10-15 glories than the teletabs. You can also sell the glories after you've done your training, so I see no point in using the tabs. For safe teleports you could just use an ectophial.

Exactly and videos with backround music seem to be the only thing that is allowed.

Posts which are even slightly for internet piratism get locked at music&movie section. Even threads about Limewire are constantly getting locked as tip.it doesn't support piratism at all. I know that every video can't be checked by the mods, but hey c'mon. AoW guides should be checked properly as they are the guides which thousands of players read and if they even name the bands and songs used, it should be a clear thing. Second, if I now reported some of these popular AoW posts to Rapidshare and Megaupload, it would take 30 mins or less for people starting to cry about links not working. What would follow? Of course rehosting. Without proper rules it's an endless squirrel wheel. edit: The rules currently say the following: According to that these videos aren't only breaking copyright laws, but also Tip.IT rules.
