Half tempted to start something simple-ish up in the Tavern, but between general forum inactivity (and a presumed lack of interest) and my own personal history regarding projects like that...

New goal: Recruit an entire set of Vile Wytches

CANNOT UNSEE

Damn it Gabe, RPG is trying to be nice

*Eagerly awaits QScape*

And that's related to what I was saying... How? I'm arguing that being a largely free game had more to do with its success than its graphics (I assume xpx is doing the same). Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Qeltar (who you're citing, however indirectly) frequently argue in 2007-2009 that the Gowers owed a big part of their success to being in the right place at the right time? You know, when he wasn't dispelling so many other myths about the game's "glory days"?

A situation I'm more than a little familiar with.

lolwut? The peak period of RS was 2004-7, right? That's as popular as it ever got. ...It was super popular in 07 because it was just about the only free/cheap MMO out there. The graphics in particular were considered a joke even within the community, those outside of it were outright hostile toward them. Please remove the rose-tinted lenses.

Skillcapes.

There's plenty of room for them to allow both. First time is free (if only for a limited time, or only for certain skills), any future resets come from Solomon's? Would that be 'fairer', for lack of a better term? The whole thing is a bit too close to prestige for my liking...

Would anyone be offended if I compared the current state of the lore to bad fanfiction? Even putting poor writing aside, it's very hard to get excited about the plot when they cannot keep a single thing consistent.

Not inaccurate, considering combat updates seem to be the only RS3 updates that haven't been getting delayed indefinitely... :mrgreen:

This shouldn't be too hard. TNPW tell us what they did today.

Same as yours... I always wanted to make my hobby as my profession and see now I have finally succeeded. I give training to people on firearms. You can join me and I'll teach you more than just pushing that trigger! :DThat post is half a decade old....holy crap, youre right... That right there is a scary thought.

So that was an uneventful month or so. Got darts, love them, didn't manage to actually get anything post-worthy out of them though. BXP'd my way to 95 summoning (from 91), cutting my cash pile to ~4m (from... 30m?). Being me, I threw three into the well, because charity. 17/26 skills above 90, for reference. Did the quest, did not like it much, leaving it at that since it's really just personal preference. Hopefully getting the chance to pick up Dark Souls 2 later today, so I will have even less to report in the foreseeable future. Signature change is kind of relevant. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to find a better way to store my painting stuff, since putting a sharp object (palette knife) in a flimsy plastic bag has predictable results.

Short version: 5 hours of walking -> dehydration looks like drunkenness. Sorry to take the mystery out of things.

Mega Blaziken?

I'd like to think it's not my fault that Jagex has no idea that a "frontal cone" occupies more than just one or two squares directly adjacent to you, but I know you'll tell me otherwise.

And it's still likely to miss

- As taciturn as ever - Kind of...? - I'm getting compliments from more talented artists on work that I've hated. That's something, right?

Should we really be putting so much stock in vague plans and ideas they made years ago?

I'd post about Dark Souls 2 but Nex is the only other person who plays that here. You know, if you're fishing for "mature" games.

You say that, but I'm not sure if you've ever tried farming Leftovers :mrgreen:

I get the sense that people have no idea how much it costs to run a company, though I'll be the first to admit that I don't know either.

The same is true for everything in the undiscovered group, including babies (which can pass on those 31s after evolving) and Nidorina/Nidoqueen. If the bank Celebi is any indication, that probably extends to events and such as well.
