China
Yeah it was just hypothetical. China has allies as well you know...North Korea, some parts of Asia, some of the Middle East would help if it was against the US. Yeah, but USA does have the Airforce General, the Laser General, and the Superweapons General. What does China have? The Infantry General, and the Tank General. Wait... That's a computer game. :lol: Anyway, the US nowadays aren't allies to anyone. It's just that there are a lot of countries who follow the US. It's a tough subject, but Britain never liked what happened in Iraq because of the non-existential WMD. It's probably one of the reasons why Tony Blair resigned, by believing every word of George Bush, we get into a war which frankly the majority of the country never wanted, if only they knew that the WMD was a lie, resulting in boosting his growing unpopularity. To be honest, if China became a powerful as America and there was growing tension, I wouldn't want to take sides, just prevent any war happening in the first place. The big question is: WWGBD? (What would Gordon Brown do?)

No one respects Capes of Achievements..
Yeah, there are some capes which I would simply ignore, such as cooking, firemaking or fletching, but the majority of other capes will gain my respect. Even the Quest cape I will seriously respect someone for simply because of the insane requirements on some quests nowadays. If I see a cape which I haven't seen before (Construction, Slayer, Smithing, Crafting, Herblore, Runecrafting, Hunter) I would worship him, due to the rarity of the cape. To those who say Construction is easy, I agree. However owning a Construction cape is a completely different matter. It's not a symbol for someone with patience for repetitive clicking, it's a symbol of being a successful moneymaker, who most likely owns a large business, with a house to match.

Pures and Honour in the Wild~190+opinions why not add yours?
Quite possibly the best thing I have ever read on Tip.It. =D> +1. I personally would just ignore whatever they are saying, as you can now simultaneously reveal them as immature, and also destroy them in their main purpose by owning them. Double Whammy \

Loose connection, die, and lose dh helm....twice
Unfortunately, its a problem that can't be rectified without abuse. Try a different training method, Dharoks was the worst thing you could do if you have a bad connection. Why not try using Guthans or an equivalent?

Is this a scam?
It probably is a scam, but to be sure, negotiate a simpler transaction. If you do end up with a single transaction, good for you. Don't drop the buyer straight away, you may regret it if he turns out to be legitimate. If he doesn't do it on your terms, drop him.

The British Government's New Law
It's a good move by our government. BB guns which are designed to look like real guns should not be in our society. We aren't going to allow them like America, and some people still can't understand that. Ginger_Warrior is right, for anybody who's having a firearm, real or fake, pointed at them, you don't take your chances. Anyway, not every law is introduced after a tragedy, it's supposed to be introduced before it happens. Reece Jones has nothing to do with BB guns. Nothing.

Runescape on Wii?
It's a Perfectly Plausible Possibility. I don't actually think that anybody needs to do anything apart from Nintendo, so they update the Wii for Java Support. If it's a bit more complex, Java will need to get involved. But Jagex just need to sit back and relax. :-w

Individuality
You speak the truth. Everyone deserves individuality, but it is only the 'cool' people who make a fashion breakthrough who are truly entitled with this honour. And let's be honest, you either make it or you don't, but most people don't and end up following someone else and copying their fashion choices, who has copied someone else... and ultimately follow the 'cool' people. This doesn't create a group. This creates a herd of sheep led by a shepherd. Its a sad fact of modern society, and I don't think this trend is going to change for a long time... until someone makes a breakthrough.

Speed of light problem
Correction: Not infinite kinetic energy, it's the speed of light. The speed of light is a rational number, but it just requires infinite energy to accelerate an object to that amount. It's unproven physics, but i think most likely result would probably be annihilation (Both masses will collide and the mass will be converted into energy) at the exchange rate of the speed of light squared, or E=mc̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâò. This would result in quite a significant explosion, but the size of it of course depends on the mass of the colliding objects. Yes, that's annihilation, but it's a different cause. Since positrons are the antimatter equivalent to electrons, it's a part of their nature that if they collide with it's equivalent particle, at any speed, they will annihilate each other. The reason why they only got a tiny amount of energy is because electrons are incredibly light. The useful thing about this energy reading though is that they can take this energy output, put it though a rearranged version of E=mc̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâò, which would be m=E/c̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâò. Replace E with your energy output and c with the speed of light, and voila, you've got the mass of both the positron and electron together in grams. Now assuming that both the positron and electron are both the same mass (I can't think of why that wouldn't be the case), if you divide m by 2, you get the mass of a single electron/positron in grams.

School Guards Break Child's Arm/Arrest Her For Dropping cake
Does this guy think he's really tough? I bet he doesn't when the rest of the law abiding world cracks down upon these people. Is it me, or does this school sound like some kind of military school?

Planet made in Photoshop, check it out!
Great picture, you are talented. How about you try one with the landmass identical to the Runescape continent? I've seen some of them before and it's pretty impressive what arrives, but in the whole planet view it would be awesome. :) Perhaps you could introduce a moon/moons for your planet and place it in the background?

Correct me if i am wrong but didnt they
As are most people (not all) with money. I agree, I never ever go there to colllect Seaweed. Waiting for the respawn is like waiting for a snail to cross a salted sidewalk. Nah, I won't be going there at all, as i just leveled in fishing as well (besides, I hate fishing!) How to solve the seaweed problem...don't know. I hope Jagex hurries to correct the battlestaff problem. Until then I will just stay on lunar spell and buy as I go. 5 staves a day until I get 100 to high alch. Think about it this way, if battlestaves are harder to get, the prices go up, and so you will get bigger profits. I appreciate that it is going to be annoying, but it's better than autoers flooding the battle / mystic staff market. Just my little overly optimistic suggestion... :-w

Why Jagex Why?
I think that they chose to take on German first because they easily had enough German speaking man power whilst still working on the updates. I don't think they will take on Mandarin Chinese yet because they will be flooded by such a huge market. I know, they would get huge profits, but there is such thing as too much of a good thing. Maybe they will take on French or Dutch next?

CAT!@
To name a cat, allow it to live with you for about 2 weeks, so about when it has settled and you have seen it's true normal personality and any quirks it may have. For example, one of my cats is named Zola after Zola Budd (A famous runner who unusually ran barefoot) because of her habit of running at high speed in the house with sometimes unfortunate consequences. If it is a more elegant cat, call it a elegant name like, perhaps Samantha. If it is an unusual breed which is linked with a country or landmark (such as Harrington's cat, Pharaoh), name it accordingly. If it's a tomcat, call it Tom or Harry or names of a similar nature. There is no such thing as a ordinary cat, so naming is easier than you think. :wink:

Apart from Jagex's one was better. Sorry, but it is. Anyhoo, it a sweet wallpaper, it's my desktop wallpaper atm. How do they make these?

My theory on the God Wars Dungeon: How did it freeze over?
A second Trinity? Now thats a theory which I haven't heard of and I think you've hit the nail on the head. But if this is the case, Zaros was in effect, created by Guthix... to restore balance to the superiority of melee over range. We can deduce this because of the discovery of the hoards of Runes which Guthixian druids claim (and which is probably true) were created by Guthix, uh, itself (Guthix is neither male nor female). Woah, that fits perfectly. :o That may not necessarily be true. Can gods really 'Die' in this way?

Weapon Speeds/Attack Animations.
+1. Perhaps if a warrior with a solid shield (no mind shield etc) is attacked by arrows, and it hits a 0, arrows stick in the shield, and then are pulled out by the warrior after 5 seconds combat. Mage robes attacked by arrows or melee should have slashes in them, which the mage magically repairs under his hand after 5 seconds combat. Dragonhide can have scorch marks if attacked by a fire spell, which the ranger rubs off? The list is endless, and I support them.

Oxford Scientists "Discover" Parallel Universes.
There's a certain amount of matter/energy in our universe. A parallel universe wouldn't get it from ours, it would have it's own. But where would the mass and energy come from if the universe is created at (semi-)random moments? It's the whole 'Where did everything come from' argument, but with a twist, you infinitely multiply it with each decision and chance. The truth is, nobody knows, and I severely doubt we will ever know. You can be religious, and keep with a belief that cannot be disproven or proven, be neutral, and not care about what happens in blissful ignorance, or be scientific, and attempt a pointless and endless quest which you cannot complete. No matter which path you choose, you will never know any better.

Runite
The Runescape interpretation of Mithril was taken from LOTR. It was said to be 'Tough as dragon scales, light as a feather'. It kinda explains why Mithril is unusually light compared to any other Runescapian metal (Bronze, Iron, Steel, Black, Mithril, Adamant, Runite, Dragon)

Peer Pressure?
Rat him out, and also say that he has threatened you. If you can, give names of gang members. You are only at risk if you rat him out and not tell anybody. Drugs in society needs to be eradicated.

29th September: Important Information (runescape.com)
Yeah, I just updated straightaway. It's lucky I have a pay to use program. I think that Jagex only annnounced it because it was the first ever virus which was directly affiliated to stealing runescape passwords.
