    Junk Trading: Acceptable, Practical Practice?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Junk trading is useful in emergencies. My clan uses addie javelins for trade sticks.

     

     

     

    We had an impromptu birthday party for a mate, and fished for a couple of hours to help him get to 99 fishing. One clannie wanted to contribute a *ton* of monks, and had to go. I traded him stuff like 2 dlongs, rune weapons, and addie javs and stuff just because he had to go. I'm poor, and don't carry that kind of money in my bank. But I had the assets to cover.

     

     

     

    Sometimes you do what you have to in a tight spot.

    Summoning - How Are You Preparing?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hiyez.

     

     

     

    I'm only lvl 87, and of diverse skills (I do it all meself) and I'm preparing for summoning by doing all the quests I haven't finished that give lamps and tomes and keeping them until summoning comes out. Not a real fast bonus, since most tomes and lamps are 2500 to 5000 xp, but it will give me a little boost. And I've not done a lot of quests since *they drive me nuts*.

     

     

     

    And thank you, Tip Iters for the excellent quest guides. Otherwise, I might not have done very many at all. Maybe I'll go mine more pure ess, since it is always useful, and I could do with more laws and nats. But that's it for me.

     

     

     

    And we really have very small clues on the summoning skill requirements, at all.

     

     

     

    Good luck all, eh?

     

     

     

    Seeyez.

    Look here, I am malleable. (actually, I'm Hobnjall)

     

     

     

    I'll follow any TipIter who is sensible.

     

     

     

    You tell me who to attack on the event day, and what squad I'm in, and it will be done until I'm dead. And I have made six sets of armour for this event. We are allowed to come back, right? Clarification would be nice.

     

     

     

    Who the heck are these others that we should worry about? We attack as told to, kill, and await next instructions while killing anything not wearing a green cape. What did I misunderstand?

     

     

     

    Hobnjall, sort of puzzled, but really invigorated at the opportunity. Killem!

     

     

     

    Thankee.

    Hiyez.

     

     

     

    I've got me a green cape in Canifis, and I've forged me a few sets of full steel. I'll bring a good weapon (prolly rune 2h).

     

     

     

    If I get killed early, I'll come back with a rune long and my rune defender, since they won't get the defender if I die.

     

     

     

    TipIt is so very good that we have to work hard to win this one. Someone else has top honours? That is not acceptable!

     

     

     

    Seeyez there. Or be an ugly rectangular thingie.

    Hiyez.

     

     

     

    Good read, and good points.

     

     

     

    I've been a game developer, and understand. I am currently a player, and I understand. You can please some people all the time, some people *none* of the time, and try to make things work mostly for everybody.

     

     

     

    Ban all of the 'bots? Not even a faint chance if you have an open player base. They *will* be just as fast and aggressive as you are, if your game can in any way make a profit for them. These are people who will work for thirty cents an hour, for mercy's sake!

     

     

     

    Those who pay for gold just show they are not willing to play the game.

     

     

     

    And updates? Updates? The game works! You have no knowlege of games that do not work! I've played games that you invest 70 hours in, and then it crashes for no reason you can discern. Try again and it crashes again! Have you any concept of how many bytes this game contains? Get it all correct? Are you insane? We are incredibly lucky that Jagex is willing to correct the flight of seagulls (maybe an easy fix, but *they are paying attention*). I have paid to play games where they just don't care, play or don't, and they don't care.

     

     

     

    And subscription fees? I'm proud to pay a minimal five bucks (U.S. $5.00) to play this game. The population has topped one million, but I'd *love* to find out how many paying members they have. And may they get many more, say I.

     

     

     

    Whiners, just go hide for a while, eh?

     

     

     

    Hobnjall, just a player, tired of complaints.

     

     

     

    Seeyez.

    This is *great*.

     

     

     

    As a fighter, I can make 10k cash an hour without alching anything, and the experience is decent.

     

     

     

    I am really alone, lots of crafters running by, and it would be really hairy without protect from magic/range/melee. But I made 10k in coin, 2 rune scimmys and misc. runes (8 nats) in an hour. And it's a lot less boring than the mini-games in the warriors guild (going for strength).

     

     

     

    If you don't have prayer potions, hang in front near the ladder and climb up to pray, climb down and fight. Rinse and repeat. I'm near 65 in att/str/def, so the attack strength and defense potions help a lot.

     

     

     

    I think that four fighters could cover the whole passage and make a decent living at it. Tell your fighter friends, eh?

    Weekly Poll: How often do you see someone breaking...

    I have no idea how many 'bots I see. How do I tell? Blatant scum, sure, they're easy. But why would I waste my time on researching someone who wears full camo while mining? Level 20? 30? 40? Gimme a break.

     

     

     

    I mine in my birthday suit, wearing a glory and using a rune pickaxe. Sometimes I have my public chat off because I'm listening to a good podcast (may the gods save Cory Doctorow!). I might not respond to "lvl?" or "mining lvl?". Just observe what I am wearing should be enough.

     

     

     

    So send out the hounds, I'll respond to a Mod. I am just trying to make every mouse click as efficient as I can. While learning something. Remember learning? This game is fnu ( pronounced fffnnnuuu ) but sometimes the grinding gets me down.

     

     

     

    Sue me. Or make MP3s, podcasts, out-of-game music against the rules. You won't even be able to notice me leave.

     

     

     

    *I* trust Jagex to solve this problem. I'm just here to pay for a very good game.

     

     

     

    Thank you, Jagex.

    Love the thread. Hate bots.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    But I have been accused of being a bot, since I use my reactions to click in a pattern onscreen, like the mining carts. And I hate fishing, because I keep getting booted from inattention. And yes, I have been caught with my public chat set to friends. And yes, I listen to podcasts, the Goon Show, and music while playing RS.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I've only been on RS for 3 months, and *this thread* made me realize why all of these nosy players keep asking "mining lvl" or "Rcrafting lvl?".

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I might look like a bot, but I don't taste like a bot. When I get to the green dragons, you can try to take a lick.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Thanks, TipIters!
