No. All things are random. No value of predetermined luck is given, or could be given, to any player; in my opinion.

To buy time.

Do Dangerous PvP. That's anything but boring. Don't say combat is boring without being sufficient enough to even PK properly.

While this is true, since the GE came out, all these players you mentionned have been in the same playing field as the current leaders. If they had kept the same pace, they would have more XP than the current leaders. XP/Hr is only good on a given short period of time, between major game changing updates. Old timers are at a disadvantage because they chose not to train fast skills, quit for some time or simply stopped racing with the others. Agreed. (with langer)

That's not as bad as I initially interpreted.

I'll say how I do it. I just make time for everything I want to do. Best advice my parents ever gave me. If something is important to you, you'll make time for it. School, my job, my fiancée, my family and my friends. Yet, I manage close to 6-8hrs of Runescape a day. Why? I make time for it. Like I make time for everything else. You know, it's called an average for a reason too --I don't do that everyday--. Recently I've taken up weightlifting and have put on 15lbs (190lbs now!) and I am loving the feeling. It helps me stay energized and focused, while feeling great and eating great. But like I said, you make time for the things you want to do. And it's no-one's [bleep]ing business how anyone chooses to spend their time, other than themselves. Do you sleep?

What is f2p junk? Bananas.

Yet again, how could you factually prove something like this? Would jagex ever admit do it? If so, why? That's my point. I saw posts wanting facts on why Jagex aren't stat-resetting for the pure reason of gaining more money from bots. That's the only logical solution as to their reasoning for this.

Dang! I was around a long time, but no where near that long ago. You're a good piece of history, friend. xD

Your amazing analogical metaphors would make a communist succumb to democracy.

Based on what friends have told me, wouldn't the CLS be better in any PvP situation? my friends told me law staff is the best. because they say it is best does not make it so. You don't have any real friends then. oh snap bladewing, you should go cry in a corner. +1.

It all makes sense now... I apologize for my hairy arms. Luckily i didn't hold the thing with my feet. LOL! Anyways, is anything other than that mug worth buying? The book isn't very excellent...

dial-up players have different IPs from session to session. how ironic, a dead/old technology posted 4 years later in a dead/old thread. lol irony. gj! that's not irony

No. Skills and combat should be kept separate, for people with a well rounded character should be able to crap all over a player whose whole goal in life is to kill.

+1. Name the skills you think would most need improvement.

Oh I dont like botters at all (or any kind of cheaters for that matter)... The problem is also that some people refuse to see the negative impact these bots/genuine players who bot have on the game... But give me the device to make it possible for me to wield an axe in the living room of a botter... And I'll cut their grubby little mits right off... O.o But I concur.

That would change RS too greatly to be defined as the same game.

Umadbrah is basically a stupid phrase used in attempts to induce anger. Only works on infants and toddlers. xD

That wouldn't solve the combat triangle problem, Magic/Ranged aren't used in PvM because of their lack of DPS, not their cost. Yeaah ... nope ... Lower max hit does not mean lower DPS. melee has the highest damage output on all bosses except armadyl and dagannoths prime and supreme i don't even how you try to contest that

Yeah, but there's some locked skills that need the buff. What about non combat skills getting the buff first? Mmm, perhaps. What skills in particular were you thinking of? Mining, cooking, thieving, fletching. And especially SMITHING.
