I either cut at the Grand Exchange or at the the Grand Tree. They're close to the bank, and have fewer people than Seers.

:lol:

Sounds great, if you can and want to develop it, you should, I'd use it. :D

Why do you think that? Because the diaries are easily achievable and not nearly much of an achievement. Yeah, I was kind of thinking the same thing. But, perhaps when more are made, like Will said, it will be more of achievement. But then, they come out few and far between compared to quests. Maybe to you they're somewhat of an achievement but in my opinion they are not. I don't.

Yea, alot of high lvl people have that problem. They get a too high rank and there are too few people as high lvl as them, so they are unable to do any tournaments. Yeah, I had that problem. Which, unfortunately means I have to lower my rank to play. Seems unfair that I'm in the first booth, beating all the lower levels.

Doable, just collect all the charms and seconds needed ;) I think it was Weyoun who got like what? 5mil summo exp in one day? If you play around the clock, it SHOULD be possible. Especially in Summoning with blue or crimson charms.

Of course, it's another rule of playing an online game, you're fat and have no life.

Why do you think that?

I've killed Zilyana, Graardor, KBD, and I believe K'ril with no prayer. Dozens of people have gotten 1M+ in SC, thanks to the silly exploit. Fight Caves no prayer is basically just a massive waste of money and time, but not all that difficult, seeing as people have taken Jad down without pray. Aye on the boss prayer one. Didn't think it would be impossible either, but certainly it was difficult? What about DKS when all three are on you? The SC one was just that, and exploit. I believe they've fixed it with the negative score update. So now it could be a real accomplishment. No, it is still insanely easy. I have 2 million, and I never used the exploit, 100k points a game.

I think they will release one when more are put out there, not five.

I remember that to. Conflicting sides show Jagex's attention to detail compared to their players. Ah well, guess you cannot catch everything.

No, you dont. Are you sure about that? Let law enforcement do their job if they see it unfit that using someone elses internet *gasp* is such a terrible crime. You're a player moderator for an online MMORPG, its not any of your business what someone does outside of the game unless its trying to meet up in real life which this is far from being anything related to that. Reporting someone for saying theyre using someone elses internet is like reporting me if i said i stole an ipod from walmart. Go ahead laura, report "crimes" think it will matter,no, it won't. You'll have a hard time trying to find a set of rules to enforce,also, there are public computers which makes tracking these "criminals" very hard, then jagex has to usually contact another countries cybercrime lab, if your local police department has one. Laura, your position as a player moderator is not a police officer, your power, you aren't going to bother anyone in real-life. Christ, I do not want to come off as a jerk, but you guys are making it sound like it's only police officer's jobs to report crimes. Of course I would tell if I saw you steal an iPod from Walmart (well not ingame if that's what you mean, and even if so, I already said I would not report something like that (referring to the wireless) [read previous post]), and it can be proved. Please, do not come with that attitude towards player moderators or me. I said I wouldn't report negligible crimes and you guys are taking it way out of context. If you do not think that what you put on the internet is important, a man on IMVU got arrested for admitting to murder to a friend. I would report more serious offenses, because I have been told to. Not doing so would be a lack of my duties.

Hmm, alot of people seem to think the Oracle is a majharrat but ive never actually seen any proof. Seriously why do so many people believe this? Is it stated in the Kb or in a Quest or something? Anyway as far as a GW 2 goes i get the feeling the closest we'll get to it is a few cutscenes in a quest and the chance to stop it happening. I believe people related the markings on the face with other known Majharrats.

Dunno how it came across, but I generally have the same views as you. There is really no reason to report unless it is something serious or offensive. And I am like you in the sense that I do not report frequently, the last time was a few weeks ago, for, like you said, a website advertiser. But, every time I do report, those are the thought processes I try to go through. :oops: For instance, there was a guy at the GE purposely saying "Who wants to burn Jews with me?" People saw me talking to a friend, and told me to come over. So I did, and figured, well, maybe it was a typo. And then it occurred repeatedly after he was "lolololol" and people politely asked him to stop, which he did not. It was one of those time where the offense was not trivial; he was doing it purposely, trying to be funny, even after people told him it was offensive and to stop.

Wait, what? Why did you quote me? Sure I am going to report crimes against a nation. Something as trivial as sharing a neighbors's wireless hardly counts though. Also, since the reporter does not know the connotation, or full story, it is just as well that it be left alone. Player moderators are people just like people using this board, and Runescape. In theory, you are saying you could do no better of a job, and thus calling yourself "stupid." While I do not wish to come off as attacking you, player moderators are far from the scope of other players. Most people will just dwindle our responsibilities to reporting, which is a large understatement. Even the act of reporting is difficult. Including strict memorization of rules, lack of bias or ethics, and determining whether reporting betters Runescape, and keep the player from doing that action deemed inappropriate from doing it again. Although there are many personalities of player moderators, I would consider myself lax. For example, if I meet someone at the Grand Exchange and he happens to blurt something trivially offensive, chances are I would not report it, as many others would do. However, if this type of behavior considered, it would be worth a report, as some might take notice and therefor offense. The benefit of the doubt is a powerful tool, but must be kept it balance. On the other hand, a warning could be given, as some have "advised" me before reporting (despite the fact that reporting would not be the answer), however, this is often taken the wrong way as a threat or officious authority. Which brings to scale another balance, keeping your own reporting in check, while not degrading player moderator's status in general. For example, if player moderators went around reporting every offense they saw, chances are people would not seem to want to talk to them or socialize near them. Which is not quite the image anyone wants. The crown besides a player moderator's name itself is a powerful image. It either shows other players that your a generally knowledgeable person, and someone to come to with help with the rules or otherwise. However, player moderators are exactly that, players. Constantly, people ask questions about your status, how you were chosen, and the list goes on. To be frank, not many people like that either, which can often cause the player moderator to ignore the player, which again, does not add to the overall image of a player moderator. This often leads people to believe that moderators are "snitches" and unfriendly people, which is an unfortunate conclusion, as most are just as "normal" players are - friendly. So we must conclude that it is a two-way street, which few will understand. While I cannot say that this pertains only to player moderators, which it does not, a fair bit of the intricate complications are. I suppose I forgot to mention that all of this must be thought out in less than a minute. Also, whoever is saying that they were trying to kiss-up, that is extremely doubtful. Yeah, like you said, minor ones need not be reported. I just recently learned that things such as planned attacks, hate crimes, etc need to be sent in. I completely forgot that for some reason. This is not only limited to player moderators. Every player has the little red button.

No, you dont. Are you sure about that? Just saw that tidbit. Yeah, that is a major no no.

Would that not require unencrypting the DVD, which is against the law? Even if not, if you do not legally own the DVDs, you cannot legally back them up/convert them, correct?

but what we're apparently stealing is bytes, not food/weapons/armour/gilded altars or other stuff a person would keep in their house. That's the same argument as saying that stealing a person's PIN number(IRL), or credit, is legal, because they are still "pixels" or undefined. They don't need a physical object in order to commit a theft. In fact, they are stealing bandwidth, which may result in the owner of the wireless network experiencing slower data times and fees to accomidate the bandwidth usage.

Indeed I do. But now I see that it is a relative statement, one that only an individual itself can decide. If you look at it from a biological standpoint, we have been taught that an organism's role is to survive and further the species. Humans do not have a problem with either. But again, that is only one standpoint, as there is essentially an infinite loop of ways one could see the statement itself. Regardless if I get flamed, it is an open opinion, one that cannot be decided by a majority. Anyways, I should probably stop. :P

I knew it! Yahoo! is the one selling the gold! :shame:

But whats the point you can't take action in real life towards them because you don't know their personal info. Also would Jagex ban you for commiting a crime in real life? I'm not sure, if you tell everyone that you litter constantly will they ban you? I doubt it, I mean it's not the same, but I think jagex would be making their own rules subjective concerning how serious of a real life crime it was. With that said, I think the mod was a little out of their bounds. No, no. But things such as threats against the president because of racial, or other hate. It is highly unrealistic that they would take action against you, or even report you to the Feds. It is just a precaution, and really for serious actions only. However, I am not saying you should talk about the candy store you robbed last week, as that could be seen as encouraging others, none-the-less appropriate for certain age groups, and could possibly result in action against your account. (Again, banning is highly unrealistic; it would only be read as a minor penalty, if anything.)

Why? Opera certainly holds its own with smaller taskbars, the wand, takes up far less memory, and can out preform it by far in javascript. Firefox has customizations and ease of use on its side. Not that Opera does not, but Firefox has the upper hand though. If you want raw speed however, you should look to Chrome. It is certainly much faster opening in itself and benchmarks indicate a 10% hand to Chrome when page loading. And mind you, it is still in beta.

Yes, we do. However, sharing neighbor's wireless hardly counts as something I would report. Concrete statements, that hold backing, are the ones that should be reported.

Chrome and Minefield.
