Metor hunting guide
Pretty good guide. It would be helpful if you listed the landing locations of meteors, since there are quite a few exceptions to the rules. Landing locations? They chage every time. never saw a metor land in 2 spots the same time, yet... those tips are what I know, from all the facts I've collected. I'll chane he nevers and always's to mights an might nots. I'm sure there are exceptions, but I'm being basic. Now I'll 'answer' some of your coments- my comments underlined.

Metor hunting guide
I consider myself to be an experianced meteor hunter, as I have mined almost all of the meteores that have fallen on the ground. I know their charisteristics on where they like to land, where they mostly don't land, and how to successfully find one. TIP: If you're going to use this guide to hunt meteors, I suggest you read the entire thing, because the facts in it work together like a chain. Contents: -Locating meteorites -Requirements and Rewards -Meteor hunting with a rather big clan -Useful tips Locating meteorites The very first thing you need to do is observe a telescope (from a study of a poh, lvl 44 construction required to build) to find out when and where it will hit. The next thing you should do is look at the world map to actually find out what area it's gonna land in, and to narrow down the area to be even more precise, I've made a list of where meteores do and don't land. -meteors rarely land in a place not near or in a mining area. -meteors always land on the ground-never in a dungeon or place reached by ladder. -meteors usually land in a place that isn't very close to an inhabbitted region. -meteors mostly don't land inside a populated city with many buildings in it. (e.g. Varrock, Ardounge) -meteors never land in rather small areas or paths around 3 squares wide. (e.g. Most of Tiranwnn) -meteors very rarely land in areas that people pass by often (e.g. the Seers village flax field) So once you've found out some areas, try to narrow them down even more. Sometimes the telescope gives a huge area but actaully it's quite easy- for example Asgarnia. Asgarnia's pretty big, but by using the facts above I narrowed it down to the mine north of the dark wizard's tower. It landed exactly there. No, I'm not saying that you can guess for100% where it'll land. I predicted that it would land there because it was one of the only places in Asgarnia that was with all my facts. Requirements and Rewards Requirements are simple- you need a pickaxe, at least one free inventory spot (for stardust) and, when collecting rewards, have 5 free inventory slots just to be safe. from a day's run from just one crashed star, you usually get 10k+ in money and 15k+ in runes and ores. Other requirements are a rather good mining level. the stats have levels of hardness when they fall- it starts out rather high then it turns lower and lower. 10 mining is the minimum requirment, but I'd suggest 30+ if you want to get better rewards. of corse, the higher your level, the better the rewards (more stardust, more minable layers, more rewards.) Once it's all mined, a star sprite will appear. talk to him/her to give your stardust in for rewards. You can only claim rewards once a day, but it's highly recomended to save the dust for another day. The maximum amount of stardust you can have 200. Table of XP gained(per stardust fragment): Meteor Size.................Experiance 9...............................210 8...............................145 7...............................114 6...............................71 5...............................47 4...............................32 3...............................29 2...............................25 1...............................14 Meteor hunting with a rather big clan Meteor hunting with a bigger clan has it's advantages and disadvantages. The advantages is that, in most situations, you locate the meteor faster because your clanmates are spead out and cover a wider range of view. Also, usually someone spends their time at a telescope without leaving to tell the time untill impact. however, is they really want to get the rewards, tell them they can tele to the approximate area 5 minutes before impact. one page-full of the clan chat is (for me, at least) the best way to hunt meteors- too much is too much to handle, too much noobs (no, really, they get annoying) but too little is usually too little spead out. Useful tips -to randomly join a random clan, go to the approx area of where it'll impact and about half an hour before impact, a LOT of people will gather there. stay with these. -if the big groups begin to run in a direction, check if it's a direction you suspected it would drop on. if they're going in another direction, they're trying to mislead you so others get more stardust and more rewards. -keep track of time!!!!! Remeber, the telescopes are never accurate, so the meteor can drop 5 minutes before you entered the drop window! -Machagony telescopes are 2 minutes more accurate than normal ones. -Meteor hunting "Rush Hour" begins at about 23:00 GMT. In this time, clans barely find it, and the luckier ones pile on the rock so hard and mine so fast it's very hard to get a lot of stardust from it. The other clans make LOTS of diversions or stay in one area. Once a meteor landed in Kandarin and there were massive amounts of people at the coal trucks. over 500, I'd say. Ended out that it landed on the mine near legends guild. -Sometimes you get a mining boost as a reward from the star sprite. if so, if you really want xp, go to the nearby mine and mine some ore. this boost is invisible, i belive, but it causes thet you get more ore than normal. Well, enjoy my guide, and happy Meteor hunting!

2012: The Year the Internet Ends
If it happens, who siad it woulden't be illigal to set up an ISP that gives just a simple monthly charge? They'd be getting mroe money then- if a LOT of people gog for an ISP that pays less, they'll get more money than the other ISPs, which would be getting mroe money, but sicne they would be all equal, the monthly-charge ISP would be getting more. Nowadays our modern technology causes big enviroment changes and humans are just too stupid to do anything about it and rely on everyone else. Bingo, basic economics. And if the companies conspired together to try and bring in the system across the board they'd be cut down by competition laws. The companies might like to, but they can't. Back to my point, if they DO sell internet for more, less people will use the internet and stop global warming.

"Time Travel"
And no offence, but since you're not even spelling his name correctly i'm less inclined to take you on your word. I could give you a mini-lecture about how just because Stephen Hawking is a visible scientist doesn't make his theories infalliable (indeed, his major theory about information loss in black holes has conclusively been disproven) but i'll spare it. I know Hawking's work reasonably well at least in the abstract, so if you could put me towards your source for that claim i'd appreciate it. If books are published with facts in them, then after it's published, the facts are prooven wrong, the book can't automatically change the mistakes. No, but that wasn't my point. I've read nearly all of Hawking's books so I looked up which book he mentioned white holes in. I believe it was Black Holes and Baby Universes (an essay collection)? When you read the book in context, he was rightly being very clear in saying that his discussion about white holes was speculative, not scientific consensus. A white hole is the time reverse of a black hole, he was talking about the possibility for space travel and how these might provide an opportunity for it. But it's simply a mathematically possible solution of Einstein's General Relativity, and until there's empirical evidence bears little relation to the physical reality. Even within the mathematics white holes are very special cases, and collapse immediately when put into conditions like those of our own universe. The inner workings of black holes would be governed by the (as yet undiscovered) laws of quantum gravity, and until these laws are discovered any discussion about what goes on inside them is just speculation. Hawking made the comments in a popular science book with no mathematical framework or justification, it wasn't a peer-reviewed science paper. Besides, black holes don't collapse anyway, they evaporate. The only thing we can do is wait for technology to advance and people to invent machines that can survive the conditions of a black hole. It's always possible that your best friend is someone wh time traveled from 1,000 years in the future because we don't know eh technoloy of the far future. :ohnoes: :?

That's pure speculation, little/nothing is known about what happens at black-hole singularities. No offence, but I'm 100% sure that Stephen Hawkins is sure about what he's talking about.

What do you do on airplane trips?
Alaska Air. I don't feel safe on any other airline. :P why do you feel so safe with Alaska Air? because it alliterate an you think you pwnation of alliteration will save your lives? (Again, feel free to siggeh... =.=)

Damn
Well, as the world is maturing, kids are maturing. My mother said that in her school, when she was in 7th grade, kids considered the word "stupid" and "idiot" as terrible words and veryone would tattle if omeone said it. nowadays 3rd graders use those terms on a rathr normal basis...

on teh bottom right of all posts is a tiny yellowish page; it has the link to the post that it's in. Is there any way to connect tah with the quotes? [quote name="onuasdad"=(INSERT POST URL HERE)] (quote) [/quote] ^^ that was the way i looked like in the other forums. Wih the techie admins this would defiantly be possible.

Flying
Nah, they just exaggerated. Most of the flight can be autopiloted. Landing and taking off isn't as difficult as it was in the past, either. Take-off and langing's pretty hard- As far as I know, there is'nt yet a plane that can take off/land with an autopilot. however, when it's gotten to around it's cruising altitute, the pilots can turn on autopilot and do whatever they want till its time for landing or there's something that needs to be done. the concorde went really fast (mach 2.2) because of secreal factors, one of them beng how aerodynamic itwas. modern civilian planes could easily go faster by making them more aerodynamic, also, but I wonder why peole don't do it... X-Plane has a free demo. As said earlier, there is a plane developed by Airbus that can land/takeoff without input from a pilot. Also, you'd be surprised how little pilots are actually flying the plane- it's usually about the first 2-5 mins and the last 3-5 mins, depending on the airport. The Concorde went fast because of it's engines mostly- they were many times more powerful than the ones on your general passenger plane. The engines also used many, many times more fuel than a normal engine. 2 things. firstly, ty for the link. secondly, are you a living encyclopedia of alltings that fly? (feel free to siggeh...)

"Time Travel"
I despise astrnomy becasue it makes methink of the acopolypso, but I know a lot about it. The stars give off LIGHT, but the star was first created, we earth humans couldent see it because it was so far away and the light didnt reach earth yet. Once I went to a planetarium and the guy said that people invented a way to see the present, but it's classified, but they showed us a few stars that are non existnt and some places where there are stats but we can't yet see them. This dosent have much to do with time travel, but time travel is possible with bening space time, as confirmed by Einstein. Things that are sucked into a black hole are pushed out at another end, called a white hole, and the white hole is in a different time than the black hole. Scientists have tried to send machines to try it, but Stephen Hawkins (o w/e he is) says that the black hole would collapse before the destination would be reached, leaving the machine stuck inside the tunnel stuck in the black hole, leaving nothing there to be done. Also, The pressure of being inside the tunnel/black hole would be so great that even a MASSIVELY powerful thing designed to survie EXTREME conditions would be cut off from all forms of electricity, andby electricty I mean batteries also.

2012 Apoclypse: Fact or Fiction?
Wow, that was... epic. But, we would have known for a long time now if something that size was heading for earth. That video only applies to HGE asteroids, but the chances of a HUGE asteroid hitting the earth is 0.84. If a normal asteroid hit Earth, well, the people directly under it would be instantly killed, but the shock waves would travel not so quickly. However, the shock would be so strong that ALL electric devices of Earth would shut down. Later, In th next areas, ther would be acid rain. Well, who cares about the apoclypso? Doomsday come and me wanna go home.

2012 Apoclypse: Fact or Fiction?
Lufthansa Magazin for the month of July gves an interview with some persn who's talented in those parts and he says something about a black hole and something. also, who cares if the poles move?! once they were in asia, one they danced round on the pacific, and they're ALWAYS moving. If our lives finish, we wont have anything to worry about when we die. But if it does happen, all my hope is taht at least it'll happen in 2014. 2012 has MANY important events planned in it.

Runescape : good for you ? or bad for health ??
- Runescape : good for you ? or bad for health ??
Hit the nail on the thread. The players create their own problems by runescape. Notice the difference between a person that spends almost all of his time before a metal box in cntrast to a person who's usually found near nature and outside. - Runescape : good for you ? or bad for health ??
