The only way that they can truely nerf it is via item not price.. With THAT many in circulation, look at this thread, ive bought 200k, 100k, 1 mills worth etc... Its just not going to be enough to buff the price and cut the supply, buying 50,000 at a time :( people its hurt most? Knife makers, iron knives were a cheap semi disposable weapon, i recon if this situation continues then bone bolts will easily overtake them.. And tbh 4 gp per for anything available in that quantity and quality is a freaking joke..

DONT pay the farmer, unless you have a bunch of money to waste/really really want all the xp possible. As yews have a very low mortality rate, like 1 in 10 i belive maybe more, it simply isnt cost effective to pay out that many cactus spines, much better to sell them and just buy 1 or 2 extra seeds.

wouldnt normally post level ups here unless they were biggys, but as ive recently adopted mining as my new favourite skill.... and i just so happened to double my xp over the weekend (sorry cursor isnt over it) basicly jumped from 500k - 1000k; so proud of myself; 85 then 99 here I come?

You just badly contradicted yourself there. Look up the 10k ranked person for fletching (well into the 99s) Look up the 10k ranked person for mining; (somewhere around the 90ish mark) Go for rcing, i think its only high 70's to break into the top 10k players? I no its well bellow 81... (as im ranked just outside the top 4k with my rcing..) So your saying that because they got a 99 we should respect them? Yet someone who is equally high ranked in say mining or rc we dont go around prasing. unless your sugesting that every 80+ rcer and 90+ miner you see we should bow down to? Like you expect me to for your poxy lil cape? It's needless to say anoying. Just because they dont hve a cape doesnt mean that i should stop my everyday business and say wtf omg your my hero you afked a skill and now have a cape, your s0 733t...

Respect? For that? No.. A 99 is not just a 99, its the time it takes to get said 99 or (construction) the amount of sheer cash it takes to get that 99... FM 'burn 100k logs OMFGZ dats uber leet?' Or mining, over 350k iron ore, personally i no what i respect more.. 'stand in one place for 2 weeks' or run back and forth to cheadle/dureal for darn slayer tasks; I knwo what i respect more.. 'stand in one place and cut and string over and over again, with an x option so you dont even have to be at your screen' or spend (100+ [cons] 60+ [herby]) On a proper skill, i know which i respect more. I'M SICK AND BLOODY TIRED OF HEARING ANY 99 IS STILL A 99 AND DESERVES RESPECT. It doesn't. I personally rank many acheivents over 99 cook or fletch or even both. Maybe to an extent fm to.. I no i dont have a 99, flame me now, but my rcing for a start (rank) would have me well into the 99 fm/cook/many others for a 99. Sure grats you got a 99. But for the love of god do not expect me to follow you around praising the ground you walked on just as you got one of those 99s. I won't insult you as thats wrong, just dont expect any congratulations for you'acheivment'. The most ill do for you is phase out the fact your in the cape and ignore it as imo its barely worth the 99k you spent on it. Infact id have more respect for a 99 fletcher with no cape (or cooker..) Just my 2 pence...

Based on most o the replys so far, and my own personal experience it tends to be rcing that were dealing with. It was for me, my money maker, i ran all my own nats and ended up at level 81, yay.. Or not after doing several runs of 30k nats etc i've burned it out, i used to enjoy it, and the money to; now i don't. Mainly after doing 50k nats in a week and a half. I dont no life either, so to get the time to do 50 was hard... Dont get me wrong i do like runescape, and like another guy said i dont want to go to WoW, its just i wanted all your guys opinions on it :) Just to reasure myself that it wasnt just me! Am a lil guttted now though relising that i will never hit 91 rcing, but oh well i have other goals now...

How long did that take you btw?

Skill burnout, you know, do something way to much (maybe you liked it alot), then you can't stand it? Well this just happened to me, rcing, just before the ZMI alter, I now needless to say cannont stand it! Which is a shame.. Being on the cusp of falling out of the top 4,000 runecrafters (which id worked hard to get into :P )made me wonder.. Just how many people out there have found themselves in my situation, completly burned out a skill they used to love, and now loath? Humerious storys would be good :) As would help to make people get back to there skills to!

and you've got to ignore everything he says, just because hes crazy doesnt mean the rest of us are :)

*looks at hunter* why would she need to drop trade?

You never need to pity level buyers who bought their levels through the piramid scheme called essense running. WHAT THE HELL Im 81 rcing, got it myself through rcing my own nats, even if i did get my level through FFL or Air company, I no my level is likely to get overtake in the near future by a lot of people doing this, oh well.. We all did it the old and hard way, even if bought you only get 26k ish xp an hour at peak times, and FFL you LOSE a lot of money... I think you should watch what you say before you mouth off like that.

Okay lets flip the situation around, and i dont mean if you were killing what would you have done... Picture the scene; Your rcing.. Say your 75 + like me, you make a run of nats - 51 is what i do a trip. Takes around 2 mins a trip same as d killing... A random guy then accosts you at the alter, asking for your 51 nats, because he really needs to alch these last 51 bows. Would YOU give them to him, or just tele to edge? If he offered to buy though im guessing youd probally sell? Or offered him ess to craft? You cant complain about the generosity of others when what you actually did was beg for 'fr33 st0ff pl0x', got a no, but an offer to be sold them, admittidly a lil steep. The real problem here is YOU, beg dont even offer them anything and then gripe here about it... The generious thing in this situation would have been to, offer them 10k for the hides? Or after siptefull killing the extra 24, giving them to the level 80s...

In the long run, it WILL be 12-13 mill at somepoint. But its your call weither you sell in now and just buy guth or wait and get guth + fury, if it were me, id sell, own guth - its very good, less chance to eat it to... :lol: Also theres no guarentee that it will go up in price, especially as gs etc are still selling very fast..

Could try ice giants aswell. Or try slayer, and the black mask means you get a far greater offence especially with a super set, so get xp quickly :D Or do what i did, and hack away at dagganoths with a d simmy, un-noting lobbys you fish yourself upstairs in the general store.

My best so far is 3x rune bars, far more usefull than legs :P Think its mainly random though, revolving around a select few items, not sure if theres a definate lis though..

Genie lamp? (x9) how much xp you got? Not sure, think you have to do the quest to actually be able to rc, but seeing as i did that years ago im a lil rusty, not like the quest is mind blowingly hard ordeal though.

not to my knowlodge, stick with the higher leveled ones, they drop better loot and no risk, just watch for someone trying to steal your kill...

I personally own bones to peaches, its definatly worth it. Get a mate with high construction? Can make and sell tabs of it if you want, making longer term renenue rather than just a one of cash injection that the gloves would provide. Also fo YOU it can make a big difference, tasks such as infernal mages of bloodvelds where you cant really use guth become super easy so you can do all in one trip, and if you fancy a bit of random dusty killing you can theoretically live down there as long as you have runes, if you want to chance your luck for a chain :D

Nuts!, that does make a lot of sense actually, as i was world hopping a lot making trades etc, could take a while then...

If that is all your money, dont get another 1,5 mill n buy guth. You need spare cash for just general day to day stuff, imo buy *full v *slayer staff *1k deaths + 10k minds *1k monks *50 constuction *see where this is going? *k bow + 100 racks *home tele tabs *whip And pwn them barrows bros, make cash and have fun at the same time!

Use black mask, unless you cant afford the 400k (?) for it...

Okay my apple trees (first trees ever grown by me, 38 farming how shamefull! :oops: ) are takein a ridiculious amount of time to grow. So far its taken them 23 1/2 hours, guide says 14.6 hours to do.. What have i dont wrong? left the farmer looking over all but one, none of them are done... Help please?

Instead of another iron ore for place saving, try a single rune or something, they are weightless, so saveing weight over a needless extra ore...

Money saving tip? Use a farseer helm not ahrim hood, same offensive bonus. No repair cost...

Good luck, you get the drop your made for a while :) However they are dam expensive to kill, i no, i wasted 5 mill + down there and killed god knows how many of them.. You look like you can afford it more than i could, gl and dont lose it all :)
