21-Sept-10 Gunnar's Ground
The best part: Those stupid rocks in front of the former Juliet house (on the path from Varrock Bank to the air altar) are gone.

Why does Jagex make such a big fuss about bank space?
If you play the Treasure Trails game, you keep all the crap-assed items needed for Uri's emote clues... and that's a lot of space right there. I used to always be bumping the limit. Now that I'm done with most of the resource-gathering skills, it's gotten better. I'm running with about 25 empty spaces. If not for the POH costume banks, it would be unbearable. Still, I wouldn't turn down a few more spaces.

Why are you "old school"
I'm old school because I still use dragon weapons & armor from time to time.

Whip > D'Claws/SS/AGS/BGS/ZGS/SGS ~ Best weapon in RS.
Holy hell why did i never notice that? Well obviously it should be Dragon Battle Axe>Whip>ss/ags/bgs/zgs/sgs EDIT:Why did i listen to you *face palm* the Dragon Halbred is obviously better. It has 4 higher str bonus. It's fun equipping a d baxe & defender at waterfiends and then outperforming wannabee punks who think their ZS is [cabbage] on a stick.

Runescape FPS
Can't you use §? You can still access the developer's console even if your keyboard doesn't have a § or ² character. Simply type in Alt-0167 or Alt-0178 to toggle the console on / off. I've submitted this as a DYK, FWIW. EDIT - This works for Windows; I can't say if it will work on other platforms.

frames-per-second..
ah kk thanks, i just did that and it came up with: Vendor: 0 Name:: SSE Version: 1 Driver: CPU Driver Version: I believe this is indicative of software emulation rather than true hardware support for the graphics, which means you are probably running in software mode. That's identical to what I see when I choose Display Mode: Software. Safe Mode will say 0,Pure Java,1,CPU,0 You might try choosing DirectX and see if you can tweak that. I'd be hella surprised if you had any OpenGL support at all.

15-Sep-10 Z-Buffering
Earlier this morning, I witnessed invisible players. The only things I could see were the damage splotches, their weapons moving in air and their shadows. This was in Kuradels dungeon. If I were of the PvP mindset, Id be extra careful about my settings and my back.

I notice that my ass no longer pokes through capes when I am harpooning fish, FWIW.

In the RS development console, you can type renderer and it will show you really helpful details about your graphics. You don't even have to be logged in to see it. That would help us give some useful advice. For example, mine: Vendor: 4318 Name:: OpenGL Version: 21 Driver: geforce 7950 gt/pci/sse2/32dnow! Driver Version: 0

So....anyone completed strange rock statue yet?
I turned my rocks off back when they retconned construction rock drops. Runescape went from being drudgery back to being enjoyable.

Go to a busy place where lots of things are going on. Perhaps the GE or some place where there’s good moving dynamic scenery. Then start turning options off in your RS configuration screen and note which ones make a difference. I can get the FPS to 50 in the GE if I turn off a lot of the eye candy. But the game looks so crappy that way... Running OpenGL 2.1, BTW.

I don't understand the displeasure with the potions... but the seals from the agility pyramid are now blank, featureless slabs.

IOW, they had an opportunity to remove the Ditch of Shame and decided to replace it instead with a wall. I love this company! Which will play havoc with anyone who uses dead keys for typing accented characters. Why not just shut down the French servers altogether? I quite like the new splash screens. FWIW, FPS hovering at about 25 (standing in the GE); pegging 50 standing in my POH with the familiars off screen - 30ish when they are romping in my field of view. It's also nice that I can see the client downloading cache in the background (98.67% of 100%).

Mosque at Ground Zero
Looks more and more likely that the mosque will never be built. Full story here.

07-Sep-10 Elite Diaries!
That sounds asinine. To me it sounds like: "Oh lame, I don't have the level to finish a diary designed to show that I have the "elite" "hard" etc requirements, and a I can't leech off others levels to do it, so I guess I'm stuck" Same reason you can't assist for quests. Jagex comes out with some higher-level content, and people [bleep] all the live long day. Not having it won't kill you. I'd buy your argument if we didn't already have effigy assisting for the candy-assed MH crowd.

Integrating Firefox & Yahoo! Mail
I am trying to configure Firefox so that it will open Yahoo! Mail (the webmail version) and parse mailto URIs. But I can't seem to find the right string. I found the way to select Yahoo! in Tools --> Options --> Applications But when I click on complex mailto links, all of the fields are combined into the To field of the form. I even found the string in about:config that I need to change: gecko.handlerService.schemes.mailto.0.uriTemplate The default being : http://compose.mail.yahoo.com/?To=%s which seems to explain why it's all in the To field. I've also tried: http://compose.mail.yahoo.com/?To=%t&Subject=%s&Body=% to no avail. Now how do I change that so that it parses correctly to To, Subject and Body?

cant you be generous and repair some1 grave?
While I do miss the old loot piles when players died, I will never ever again want to see randoms that kill people. Those were abominable and indiscriminate towards people who had disconnected or had severe lag.

Is there a spot in Mort Myre Swamp where ...
I've seen several 3-spots in various guides, but no 4-spots.

Pastor who wants to burn the Qu'ran.
Whether the people behind the Park51 have ill will or not is immaterial. They are pissing off people left and right. Surely someone interested in a community center would be more in tune with public sensibilities and find a more appropriate location. And, BTW, this "community center" will have prayer space for upwards of 2000 people. And also, BTW, the official website for the project only within the past month changed the nomenclature to "prayer space" from "mosque." You can still find the old version of the site in Google's cache. It's not a COMMUNITY CENTER - it's a MOSQUE.

Pastor who wants to burn the Qu'ran.
Burning books accomplishes nothing of worth. It's just a cry for attention, and the American press is heeding the call. What will people like this do when Kindles take over the market? But I think the people building that controversial mosque in NYC are just as ignorant and just as in your face. Even though the law might allow such behavior, common sense should tell you that you are causing more long-term harm than good - whether it's burning someones holy book or building a mosque without regard to public sensibilities.

Now thats odd... I had the ring on and didn't have any problems. The code must be looking at what you would have made without the ring, whether you are wearing it or not.

How to Fix Bonus XP Weekends
My suggestion is that if you can't offer it for all skills without limitations, you should not offer it at all. Yet I would bet dollars to donuts that we will eventually see Bonus Weekend III.
