World Cup 2010 - South Africa!
In. You should set up a predictor league too.

iPhone 4
This. I seriously could never afford an iPhone. Never have been able to and certainly won't be able to in the foreseeable future. I'm happy with me £30 Skypephone S1 tbh. Count me in the cheap phone camp. I want my mobile phone for phone calls & that's all. Ninety percent of the time, I just let it go to voicemail. I don't understand the infatuation with the iPhone, much less the rest of the stuff the Cult of Apple fawns over. I particularly hate all things to do with smartphones, because of their sucking down of UHF bandwidth that could be better used by terrestrial digital television.

World Cup 2010 - South Africa!
I'd play. I already have a bracket on ESPN (picking Spain to win it all).

Shops a thing of the past?
I miss sitting in Varrock Store & thriftshopping. :cry: The only things I buy from stores now are water vials, shards & blank pouches.

When do I stop burning cavefish and rocktail?
RS Wiki says 95 with gaunts = no burn of rocktails. You will always occasionally burn cavefish & rocktail without gaunts.

Double Exp Weekend(s)
I hope they never do another. But it would figure another is in the pipe - I just charmed 92 to 93 & am bone dry. :oops:

Are there any "old school" players still out there?
The game surely has changed. Most of the products nowadays spend their time hacking & slashing for income, then turn around and spend all their income on buying skills. They then smugly declare that their way is the best way, and tell you you are playing the game wrong if you don't do it their way. Of course, they don't consider that if everybody played their way, there'd be no skill buying because there'd be no raw mats. :roll:

It's not about trying to convince you. Your closed-minded, thread-long display of pedantry speaks for itself.

Prayer @ dark beasts
I don't protect from anything at dark beasts. But I do carry a stack of unicorn scrolls. AFAIAC, they are the way to go.

falconry botters
+1 I know when I am up there, there is always someone who comes running up from another point in the field and tries to strike up a conversation (Yes of course, when I am doing something as click-intensive as falconry, I'd just love to stop & shoot the breeze with strangers who want to gab :roll:). Of course I ignore them. And then the competition crap starts over trying to catch the same falcons. Most of you people wouldn't know a botter if you saw it. You are the Barney Fifes of RS.

This is false as a matter of fact, regardless of whether or not one believes Israel has the right to impose a blockade on Gaza. They had other options. They chose a violent military confrontation. No, they chose a confrontation. The people on the boat escalated it to violence. I do wonder if they intentionally boarded in int'l waters or were the victims of bad GPS. It's happened to the US military recently; it's not a stretch that the Israeli military was bitten too. But that's pure supposition on my part. If Israel truly goes it alone, they'll re-conquer Gaza & the West Bank. Without the US to pull back on the leash, they'll deal with Hamas & drive them back out to Syria. Which is why the US will not come down that harshly on Israel, IMO.

The death of dungeoneering?
Well, in a sense you probably are being coerced to train it via TOG. And unless matters have changed, you don't get tokens for that - just empty, worthless XP. If Jagex intends to keep pretending this is a skill, then they need to amend that situation and (if possible) retroactively fix past TOG/Dung rewards. The other diversions that give XP (like penguins) I don't feel so strongly about. People choose those. But with TOG, we have no choice - it's the low skill or nothing. And week after week, the imbalance between XP & tokens grows larger.

The shunned skill capes
Grin and bear it. The only people who rag on about cape hierarchy are those with insecurity issues. I have taken to rotating my capes, wearing one for a week or two and then swapping it for another - without regard to which emote is k00735t or whether the colors match what else I am wearing or whether the cape is "respected" by this misbegotten gaming community at large. In RSC, people pissed & moaned about how everyone looked alike. So RS2 comes a long, with its panoply of wardrobe options, and people piss & moan about how certain items aren't respected and shouldn't be worn in public. They would have us all go back to wearing the same "respected" items and looking alike all over again. Puh-leaze.

XP rewards from penguin points are always in multiples of 25. XP rewards from genie lamps are always in multiples of 10. Preemptively, XP rewards from books of knowledge are always in multiples of 15. The ores with fractional XP rewards (copper, tin, blurite, limestone, rubium) are the way to go if you are interested in fine-tuning. As mentioned earlier, shooting stars give XP in numbers that are not muptiples of 5 & 10, so they will undo your efforts if you participate.- 25-May-2010 - The Elemental Workshop III
There can't be buyers without sellers. You making any spares to sell? I know I'm not. :razz:- What are you listening to right now!?

A letters-numbers grid is much more intuitive than introducing a color scale, IMO (like was once on Runescape Wikia before someone replaced it with all those broken "solutions"). Why obfuscate?- 25-May-2010 - The Elemental Workshop III
I love when people say "my post on page x", not remembering that posts per page is user-configurable. From where I stand, THIS is page 7. :twisted: The vast majority of ppl however leave the setting at default and anyone can restore default. Thus by this measure it gives the right page reference for most people. See how easy it is? But some people will still make excuses...- 25-May-2010 - The Elemental Workshop III
