One of the more creative clan advertisements. :lol: Not to say you are lying, but assuming a 1/16 barrows item drop rate, the chances of having a 541 dry streak is: (15/16)^541, or .0000000000000007. That's 15 zeroes... slimmer than winning the lottery twice. Even slimmer is the probability of any one given person recording such high numbers. If twenty minutes is the time it take per barrows chest run, it would take 10820 minutes, or 180 hours, or 7 and a half days to complete those runs.

So reseting the defaults did not work?

Double Nat Running
It's faster exp while assistance is available, but the lack of cash makes it inefficient. To answer your question, it is used by those looking to gain fast exp.

Untrimmed Cape
You don't even have to die, just drop it on a F2P world, get the 99, then telegrab it. I just tried it two days ago.

highest and lowest aph?
Not sure how you can generalize a skill to be the most or least clicks per hour, considering that there are countless training methods.

Buying a new computer. - Got the Pro, new question again....
I found this thread, where one user explains that he/she experiences a faster OS despite not having a 64-bit processor.

Buying a new computer. - Got the Pro, new question again....
What's your computer? I've been looking at upgrading as well but because I have a first gen MacBook (3 yrs old) I don't think it would have good use of all the new features because it's not 64-bit. The previous generation MacBook (aluminum, 2.4Ghz, Nvidia 9400M, 4GB of RAM, and 250GB HDD.) Yours is the one with the Core Duo, right? I'll take a look at some reviews that people have posted about it on theirs.

Buying a new computer. - Got the Pro, new question again....
I thought that nothing could out-do Leopard's wake from sleep, as it usually took about two seconds (I timed everything on Leopard to compare) to wake up again. Snow Leopard cuts this down to a few milliseconds, and the drivers for my mouse load instantly as well. Shut down took eight seconds on Leopard and on Snow Leopards it's now five. Startup time was around the same, both within margin of error, so about 38 seconds for boot up. Time Machine is also amazingly fast, compared to the sluggish backup of Leopard. I never timed it, but it's certainly faster (and Spotlight doesn't continue to index it each time). The only incompatibility that I unearthed was with Camino. I use the Camino web browser to play Runescape, but it is unable to play Java on OS X 10.6. It's not that big of a deal, as I can use Firefox, but there was a reason I switch from Opera and Firefox. It kind of ticks me off, but not enough to regret early installation. I was really worried about Microsoft Mouse (the software for my mouse) not working well. But surprisingly enough, even being a 32-bit application, it works fine; I still have all of my button preferences. Exposé in the dock is probably the best multi-tasking feature I have seen on any operating system (The Linux two-screen thingy is certainly comparable, however). Even though I got Snow Leopard yesterday, I have used it multiple times to drag pictures from Safari onto my Mail account without having to move one or the other to my second monitor. For those wondering, I did an upgrade (all of my files and applications stay, including those that appear on start-up [which I never had any]), not a clean installation and I got 5GB of free space more. Certainly worth the upgrade. :thumbup:

Buggy Laptop
Ant trap (those which the ants can't escape from) and lure them out within a contained area. Take out the battery and don't put it back in until they are all gone. What kind of laptop do you have? Most plastic laptops have two plastic pieces atop the keyboard that are able to be separated. It is extremely likely that you're going to have to take off the farthest plastic piece (nearest the screen) and fish them out. Don't use regular ant poison, as they ingest it/bring it back to their nest to die.

Am I really that bad?
Topic merged with the preexisting one. Discussion was evident on the newer thread and the older one was on the fourth page. Adding the older thread may help the original poster gain insight to his or her question. :)

Well, I get my copy tomorrow so I'll get back to you on how the latest build is.

High Detail...
You said that you bought a new GPU? What model?

Buying a new computer. - Got the Pro, new question again....
Lol. Here's what it takes to boot into OS on a different hard drive: 1) Reboot 2) Enter bios 3) Change primary to secondary and secondary to primary 4) Save changes and reboot Whole process takes less than 30 seconds. It's actually easier than that! You can open up Bootcamp under Utilities and select Windows as your primary OS! You can do the same thing in Windows by clicking on the Bootcamp icon. If you ever want to boot into the secondary OS, you just hold the Option key upon startup or you can toggle the settings in whatever OS you happen to be using. And as Apple has begun further improving its line of graphics cards, more and more titles have begun supporting both operating systems. In addition, there are several virtualization application available for OS X, both free and fee, that allow you to run Windows/Linux within OS X.

Yes, but most newbies in computers have no idea you can have different OSs on a computer. Plus it's a bloody pain in the [wagon]. What is a pain?

DVI ports broken?
Provided that you bought it from them, yes.

Possible influences that could help Runescape?
This thread has evolved into what your opening statement is about. :)
-
DVI ports broken?
And your monitor is set to accept digital signals? For instance, there are several OSDs that allow you to plug in multiple cables at once and you can switch between them using the settings. If so, then a broken DVI input could be one explanation.

Buying a new computer. - Got the Pro, new question again....
I don't know why everyone thinks this; I am an open-minded person who believes that what is good for one person might not be best for another. The main reason I would advise against that notebook is that it's overall size dwarfs that of the a MacBook or MacBook Pro. It's two pounds heavier, two inches bigger, and has a battery life half that of a MacBook Pro or two hours less than a regular MacBook.

The problem is that, like many others, you're incorrectly labeling them. Merchanting, by far, is not a new concept to Runescape. Rather, the Grand Exchange has popularized the art of manipulating. Merchants feed to the natural demand for items. People usually want items quickly and the merchants fill that desire. Manipulators create their own demand by purposely buying out an item en masse using hoards of followers to direct. This then creates additional sideffects. As I said, manipulators rely on consumer greed to fuel their profit; everyone and their brother knew that prayer potions were being bought out and put in an offer hoping to make a quick buck. To get these followers, manipulators rely on advertisers who are usually bots or are lower levels wishing to make it up the manipulation ladder (ranked in a clan chat is usually common) . As a result, normal players have begun to see an increase in spam when vistiting the Grand Exchange in worlds with a population at over 1,500 people. EDIT: You don't always need to have picture to discuss what's in another post. In fact, if you have to label it 'unspam,' it's probably worse.

If you wish to debate it further it would be best to create a new topic. We wouldn't want to spam up Thammaron's thread. :)

I hope this link will suffice. EDIT: Oh, and this one. Personal experience is what led me to buy one. Several Tech and Computer users will testify to the troubles I have experienced with PC manufacturers, namely Dell. At first I thought along a similar line - that is was paying more for the same thing I could get from HP, Acer, Dell, etc. But it simply isn't. I'm the kind of person that doesn't mind paying more to more expensive local businesses. I don't mind paying a little extra to go to the hardware shop down the road despite its markup of like 20% compared to Sear's or Lowe's. They have friendly and knowledgeable staff and aid me whenever I need help (lately, they attached a 40 year old hammer to a new handle which saved me like $10) . If it works for me, it's worth paying a little extra.

Killing KQ
Solo? I think Verac's armor and special is still the cream of the crop. You could probably squeeze one kill in a trip. Though, it might take two trips to bring her down.
