It takes a very clever person to come up with something like that. =D>

Anything that requires lots of time or money to level up - with the exception of RCing because going by the "Time = Money" logic, RCing technically saves you more time than you are spending since it's so profitable. I prefer Summoning.

Yeah, when you sign up you have to agree that your character is property of Jagex so they won't refund you.

I know it sounds sketchy but I think mensilater is right on this. It is impossible to have unlimited power because if you challenge yourself (such as this pie paradox) you would both win and lose - but being omnipotent means you can't lose.

I would probably start over in hopes to retain my 'RS happiness' but I know it would get old quick when knowing how many hours I put into getting my levels hits me.

"HYT + Merry Christmas" is much less confusing.

Ah, so you are basing your assumptions that Jagex would make a useless skill off the fact that they didn't satisfy you with one mini game? We're talking about skills here, not mini games. The point behind a skill is to help make your character stronger and more experienced so you will be able to accomplish any task that gets in your way - the point behind a mini game is to just have fun while playing it.

Wow, you really need to change your name... :roll: Anyways... you are also assuming the worst. You want compatibility with the other skills? Here you go: Sailing to an island with... -Ore -Trees -Fish -RC altar -Agility course -Pickpocket-able people -Hunt-able creatures -Herbs -Slayer monsters All it takes is a little more creativity and a little less pessimism. I mean come on now. you wouldn't need sailing to get to those islands. Yes you would. Jagex would make them inaccessible except when you try to sail there - think of Agility shortcuts and areas. Without high enough Agility, you can't even cross some of the logs. You just can't seem to get the point, can you now? IF THEY DON'T MAKE A SAILING SKILL YOU CAN JUST ACCES THOSE ISLANDS THROUGH TRAVELLING (LIKE WITH CHARTER SHIPS) wich is way much better than building an oak boat and doing it yourself. silly You're assuming that Jagex is dumb enough to make a completely pointless skill. You're missing something here... Jagex can make it have a point!

I liked ydrasil's method of calculating the hardest skills. It makes more sense for skills that came out recently like Hunter and Construction.

I was just saying if God existed, I think that scenario sounds more meaningful than him 'testing' us.

Only as wildly speculative as a universe that just happened completely by accident.

Guns are dangerous things because they can lead to accidental deaths as you've stated. Drugs, cars, and knives also do this. :wall: What is the point of a gun? To kill. Is that not essentially violence? You say you want to decrease the demand for guns - that doesn't mean you don't want people to be less violent? My argument is that guns aren't the only things that kill people. Your argument is that guns aren't the only things that can defend people. And instead of refuting, you bring up red herrings. I meant in the context of guns so you wouldn't try and pull up any analogous statistics. My point was that if there is a flaw - criminals still find ways to get guns - then I don't see how that makes self-defense any less necessary (you know, the whole thing I've been arguing about). What is yours? Because sometimes other alternatives of self-defense can be helpful so we should give up letting innocent people arm themselves with the same thing criminals will always be getting their hands on? How is that foolish? I repeat, what is the point of owning and loading a gun...? Handguns are designed to kill people. So what would your intention for buying one be? And I've repeated many times that if they had no intention of killing someone then they wouldn't buy or load the gun in the first place. But there is. I would like to live in a world without guns, but I don't think that's very possible so that's why I think the innocent are entitled to self-defense.

Uhh... and what would the difference be? You say slight and I say major. What does correcting trivial mistakes like that accomplish? Either way you look at it, I don't see how that does anything to effect my argument... Red herring - arguing about something other than the argument at hand. You were arguing about red herrings - does that have to do with gun control? That's great, but it's not anywhere near enough. Like I said, unless your gun plan is practically foolproof then it is practically useless since things will be practically the same. And don't bring up any analogies here because guns are instruments of murder - cigs are drugs. You don't get my point. You keep bringing up the fact that you don't need a gun for self-defense, so I bring up the fact that you don't need a gun to die... (You know, your whole argument about how Guns = death) Yeah but when did I say all criminals? I was just saying that knives can be replaced with guns pretty damn easily. What would the intention of buying and loading a gun be? To kill. It's that simple. Guns are meant to kill. Take that some person who bought that gun, take away their gun - do their bad intentions still exist? Yeah. Add a knife into the equation - now sit back and watch the effectiveness of gun control! PS: I think it's funny how you respond to everything except the main point which we were both agreeing on. "This really clears a lot in between you and I. :) I'd like to see proper control, I just don't think it would be as easy with a place like the US."

Answer to all of your questions: Because you let people like that get to you.

There is a such thing as personal accomplishment, you know. Not everyone cares what others think.

That's a very bold assumption. I think Sailing has a lot of potential. What makes you think that Jagex won't be adding in new islands to complement the Sailing skill? That's like saying, "If Hunting came out it would be stupid because you can only catch squirrels."

If they're too afraid to stand up for what they believe in then why should anyone be expected to be sympathetic?

If we're only fragments then how can we be omniscient? We'd only be part-knowing as opposed to all-knowing. That would be the point in fragmenting yourself - maybe he is 'bored' of knowing it all so that is the reason behind giving himself an adventure of mystery. Just because we don't know everything right now that doesn't mean we don't have a long way to go ahead of us.

If I had that kind of money, I'd rather have the sword. But I'm just a poor skiller. :(

The long and less rewarding randoms are the ones that get to me - like the mime. 500 Gp for that? Come on... not everyone is level 20 anymore. :? They should create a new reward system at the very least.

Dharoks for power training. GS for PVP. Dharoks is good when you have low health and you are safe from death (Prayer against NPC's). GS is good for quick important KO's against players.
