Future Update Discussions
This explains what he's done with the millions of copper, clay, and iron ores he's been mooching off of noobs for more than a decade now.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
[hide] While it doesn't exactly give a quick overview, you can probably figure out what's good and what's not over at Elitist Jerks. Used to be pretty serious about raiding back in WotLK. Well, as far as 3x3 hours a week allowed, anyway. Did have a bunch of top-100 parses, though top-20 was typically out of reach for me. Suppose you really need to get the ideal professions and such to rank that highly. You got some raid parses around somewhere? I'd be interested in seeing the numbers these days. They're bound to be pretty crazy now that players have more hitpoints than bosses back in ZG used to have :P 1.) http://simulationcra.../Raid_T14H.html is one place to check, but that's off because its on a raid dummy instead of a real fight. Still, shows a good idea (Example, arms warriors should be in the top 3-4 DPS instead of midway down.) Also try http://raidbots.com/.../14/30/default/ but this is also off, since many people in the top guilds are either not going for top DPS at the moment (to beat raid mechanics) or are keeping logs private. 2,) http://www.worldoflo...3727#Darkfriend from here you can check logs from our other fights, etc. [/hide]Kind of surprised that BM is the top Hunter spec right now, kind of saddened by the fact that hunters in general are in a bad position damage wise on a dummy. At least mobility is our strong point, which improves our position within actual raid fights tremendously.

2012 U.S. Elections - President Obama Re-elected
I only watched the first half hour of it, but I found that Biden deserved to interrupt Ryan. Some of the accusations Ryan was making were plain ridiculous.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
What is the website for the state of the different DPS specs at the moment? I keep forgetting the one that was made after stateofdps stopped being updated for a couple of patches now :? .

What movie(s) did you last see?
[hide=Spoilers]While I know what you mean about archetypes, one of the kids would have grown up to become the Rainmaker, the person that wanted him dead, killed his wife, and became a mysterious and dangerous mafia boss in the future. That's why he sent himself into the past to commit a heinous act to prevent future heinous acts.[/hide] [hide=More Spoilers Yay]While I understand that, he's robbing two innocent kids of their lives so that he could maybe see his wife again, who already died because of something he basically already signed up for. The character just bugs me I guess, lol. He killed about 20 people over the course of the movie because of one person that was killed in his life, sort of strips away the delusion that he's doing the right thing.[/hide] [hide=EVEN MORE SPOILERS]Yeah, I'm not gonna deny that he killed people as if this is a typical Bruce Willis movie, which I disliked. However, what makes you think that the director was trying to portray Old Joe as the good guy? It looked to me like Old Joe was portrayed as a man that lost too much, and is now a mad man on the loose, with only a hint of remorse left in him shown by his hesitations before he killed. No one in the movie was wholly good, they all had demons inside of them, driven by the dangerous attractions of city life, such as drugs and money.[/hide]

Hallowe'en Treat: Scary Bonus XP Weekend!
For some reason, I don't have the willingness to take advantage of this bonus xp weekend. Meh.

Vanity Items - RS Prepaid cards and Ornate Katana
I have a feeling the graphics team in charge of SGS and SOF items are paid on a commission :P .

The game seems to have developed a seriousness...
World 1 Grand Exchange is a great place to bonfire and cook, seeing that there is always a fire going. I spent nearly three months straight bonfiring or cooking there.

The F2P General Discussion Thread
I wonder what would be a good skill to train over the BXPW... prayer is probably still not worth it even with the extra xp, so I'm thinking of trying some smithing. Or continue runecrafting, I can't be bothered to leave this floating expanse of magic :? .

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
The dual wielding abilties were exclusively members-only, last time I checked, which is why I had to resort to the sword-and-shield rotation. I'll have to check my info next beta, they could have changed it in the latest update.

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
Can you expand on that? I wasn't aware that shield-2h-DW is supposed to form some sort of triangle. From experience on the beta servers (someone else could verify with some actual quantitative tests), using a two-handed weapon beats dual wielding in all cases, including DPS because two handed can perform a full damage rotation without any downtime because of its exclusive abilties, while dual wielding has to resort to the same rotation as sword-and-shield, which has plenty of gaps for usage of defensive abilities.

King Black Dragon and Dungeon Rework- October 9, 2012
The price of the dwarven suit is still not warranted, in my opinion. The point I was trying to make was that Jagex is overpricing something ( an outfit + extras) that is already considered overpriced in other games (such as WoW). Even the Sims 3 sells DLC for "only" $20 dollars, which consists of furniture, clothing, hairstyles etc. all in one pack.

King Black Dragon and Dungeon Rework- October 9, 2012
Hey I could buy that, OR I could buy A BRAND NEW GAME WITH 10-100+ HOURS OF GAMEPLAY. Jagex, seriously, be realistic when making these prices. I hate to be the one that mentions WoW around here, but I remember the uproar when Blizzard started selling FLYING MOUNTABLE HORSES MADE OF STARS for real life money. Everyone thought it was overpriced. It costs $25. And it sure as hell looks better than this piece of scrap.

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
I don't think so. When F2P beta was first released, we had access to all mage spells, including wave and surge spells. After they released a new build, they removed members features, however offhand melee weapons stayed. I wouldn't be surprised if the offhands stay F2P, Jagex loves to give free players teasers like this.

Why Do People Judge RS So Much Differently Than Other Video Games?
*cough* We haven't had a weekly hot topic in over a month *cough* . Runescape has never been taken seriously, really. Many MMO gamers that I know started with either WoW or Runescape, with the younger ones always opting for RS. It is so accessable it is a stepping to hardcore MMO gaming. This does have a significant drawback: its capabilities are constrained by the technology it can use. Don't kid yourselves, even though the graphics have gotten a lot better, the polygon count much denser, and the animations sharper, rival games have gotten just as good over the same amount of time. The MMO genre is famously weak nowadays when it comes to graphics for such high end games due to the massive amounts of players that have to be on the same server, at the same time. Add the fact that RS is a browser game, and you can see why RS can never be as good graphically as other games. In a gaming age when people seem to want 1080p realistic graphics, a game like RS is downright laughable.

How long have these forums existed?
Yeah, Lightning was the second player ever to create an account, I believe. I personally lurked for around a year before I joined.

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
Did they change dual wielding in the latest build? All you've said is correct, however when I played the weekend before last, offhand melee weapons were still available to F2Pers, but there were no abilities that required dual wielding.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Let's be honest, an online dating profile tends to be strangely similar to a résumé.

King Black Dragon and Dungeon Rework- October 9, 2012
As I said before, loot pinata. Got to be honest, I didn't like the price of the assassin outfit, nor do I like the price of this new suit. I'd much rather pay those 40 bucks on two decent full-sized games.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Fair enough. Something that I am now wondering is how "jerky" can you be on a first date. Are you going to mention to them that you lean towards the polyamorous side? How likely would you be to fulfill her wishes, whatever they may be? I'm just rambling now, feel free to not respond to these questions :P .
