The_Bacon_Man

Hey. I remember back two or so months when I was training mage at cammy. You were there working on abrasion. We got into conversation, myself not knowing who you were, and I really thought to myself, "wow - this guy is nice!" A little later I found out that you were Gin_and_Tonic - or one of the TIF gods I'd seen around the forum. I may not have known you very well personally, but I knew all the work you did for us regular guys over your time here. I guess I'm really just saying that you're a great friend, a great tiffiter, and that you should always be known here for what you've done. Thanks, and GL with whatever you do. Haxx Own.

11/2/07. Added 80 range pic and party. Working to sell p pots.

11/2/07. Bank pic added, and working on other comp.

Very nice! Once I make some prayer pots, I may donate a few axes or so to your skiller. Good luck on your skills, and keep at it!

Updated as of 11/2/07. Note: My Story has been updated, and I'm working on a bank pic.

Haxx Own's Little Blog of Horrors. *Not Finished - Only about 1/3 done atm with no pictures. Please hold off until finished #-o * [hide=Introduction & My Story]Hello all you silly geese out there! Please humor me, I use a lot of it... and I enjoy implying that you are birds. My name is Matt, otherwise known as Haxx_Own, or that silly little noob who enjoys spamming up the chat. I'm 15, I'm a sophomore, I have many, many friends - (I'm not really sure why with my personality...), and I have the pleasure of writing this blog for you. I run Cross-Country, play Soccer, and run Track for my school, so during the fall and spring I have little time on here. I'll post some times if you are interested later on. I started playing runescape in the fall of '05, or roughly 3 years ago. During that time I've had multiple pures and mains, and this is my latest. He is a predominantly range hybrid, and he was started a little over 3 months ago. Hmm, nothing really else about my backround - I'll add more later - so onto the goals & stats. RECENT: Today my school got a bomb scare. And because we were all out of the building, noone got to get their books & such for homework. So, my poetry project and book report were pushed back :twisted:. Though, I don't really want to say I liked the bomb scare, but you know... no homework... etc. :-w [/hide] Statistics & Bank [hide= Stats as of 11/1/07] [/hide] [hide=Current Stats] [/hide] [hide=Bank] [/hide] Goals: [hide=Short Term]60 attack 80 strength 80 health 40 mining 40 smithing 53 theiving 40 runecrafting 50 fletching 40 slayer 70 hunter So as you can see, I'm really focused on getting my stats "neater" for a pure, and my strength up to match my range.[/hide] [hide=Long Term] 99 firemaking. I have it banked, but not worked on. [/hide] [hide=Achievements] 80 Range. One of my favorite achievements after wanting it for about a month and a half. Drop party inventory. Now I'm dead broke lol. (In cash.) My little party was fun =]. [/hide]

This is a very important topic - I'm posting partially to bump it in General :anxious:, but really I just got it today. Thank goodness for this post, or I would have fallen for it, as I am training a pure. Please note - it will look like this: PWNED URL - No keyloggers pl0x. But seriously - READ THE POST, and don't fall for it!

.. ok.. its pathetic when you use 4 instead of for.. but when you use $ instead of 4?? also you dont put a comma after his.. this is like 3rd grade english.. just shows the IW of the average tip.iter :( Yep, that IW is really low... but seriously, I agree. MOLLY MOLLY MOLLY. Need I say more?

Fun Fighting got PKed when they came out with the DDS.

Support. Personally, I'm hating training to 53 - theives who stuck with it should really get rewards for doing so. I loved the idea, very well thought out - but can I get some more details on clothing? (Ignore this if you already have it out)

Perhaps if it was updated so that you could use the workshop in POH's to accomplish this along with the fletching... But otherwise, it would be rediculous. Only way I can see this happening is if they were non-stackable.

Apparantly, you've never been to Varrock. Or at least looked in the Knowledge Base for it's history... Avarrocka(SP) is the ancient name for Varrock. I'll try to find a link later. Overall, I would really like to support this idea. It is that quest for f2p that 85+ have been craving for for a while. But, I cannot. Much as I would love it, this is a quest of RFD (Recipe for Disaster) sized proportions. And for those of you who have started or finished RFD, well, I think you know what it takes to finish. Great idea, and VERY thought out, but I cannot support it.

I found out about Runescape through a friend, who found it searching the web one day. (This was around 4 years ago). It just stuck, and while some of my friends quit, I've stayed with it. But yeah, if mature players can find it without their advertising on Miniclip, why bother? Because Jagex is a Company. (I swear... this is the answer to most rants / discussions of this type.) The focus of companies are to generate revenue and profit. Through that profit, they can expand, increasing their profits. Welcome to buisness. It just makes sense to advertise on popular websites, no matter how immature, if it brings potential customers into the game. P.S. I am really against Miniclip.

I feel that it is really supposed to be interpreted as Rune Quest. Rune for the runes found throughout the game, both in the magical aspect and as in runes (ruins, folklores, explanations) of the gods. The gods and the backround of the world is partly explained due to histories in the knowledge base and are explained in quests. The second part is for Scape, or "scaping". I feel this translates into questing, and questing for knowledge of the runes and lores. Therefore, the many quests that explain the runes and storyline are what the game is named for. Runescape. I really don't think they called it Runescape due to runite armour, because due to the low levels required and the fact that they would not base a game around weak weaponry or armour.

I usually make goals per every 10 levels. I just finished leveling up to 40 herblore. I bought the guams I needed, and ran as many seconds and vials I needed for the 10 levels and made them. Then I took a break, and worked on other skills or pked. I really just keep doing this for a change of pace, so instead of 40k exp till your goal, you'll find it being only around 12k.

Nooo! Jesse is quitting? You may not have known me very well, but I always looked for the "in-crowd" of W99 Edge, and all of you well known players. We're all very sorry to see you leave, but remember you're always welcome at TIF, and we wish you well in RL!

*Steals* Nice job. 99/99

Radio: Your next begging assignment is xxapathyxx, over. Me: Yeah... Beggar HQ? I might need some backup for this job, over. 100,000 Swarms of Level 3's out of 10.

I made my main, stayed until 86 cbt, when it was hacked and muted >.< I made my first pure, gave it away. I made my second and third pure, screwed them up, and quit them. I was given an acc after my friend quit - he is back now and I gave it back. I started my fourth pure, and here I am today.

Lol, I started cooking a couple months before the update, and was relaxed about it. I got to 91 around the time of the update, and after cooking capes were so common, but it on hold. I pretty much stopped cooking because of the update...

Haxx_Own FTW! Got it up =]

It seems very good so far. I enjoyed the humor you put in, and I can't wait until the next chapters. Unoalexi - nice quote from 1984. That character ought to be interesting...

I loved this story. The italics for sound effects and important lines really made the difference. The imagery such as "The shadows danced, casting illusions" and "A pool of red rose from the surface of the water" burned images that I could visualize. Overall, very good work, and can't wait to read your next. ~ Haxx Own - The Bacon Man

One of my few attempts at poetry. The form is Terza Rima, which I first used in an assignment in school, and it stuck. I really don't care much about meter & footage, but I like the rhyme scheme. So, give me some criticism, but know I did this in all of about 20 minutes near 11:00 PM. The journey of few, The journey known well, My journey, with you, We cannot dwell, We cannot leave, Hear not our farewell, But we must beleive, But we must stand tall, Take what we receive, For we will not fall, For we will hold on, Just you, I, at their call Until the golden dawn When we will both be gone.

Lol, very cocky, but very good k-os. Phr33 Godsword plx?
