Slayer Points
I'm gonna throw my hat into the ring here and agree with Zaaps that the slayer ring should be a higher priority. Some of the things I use it for: 1. Buying broad bolt tips from Sumona 2. Penguins 3. Abby specs 4. Fastest access to Puro Puro for hunting implings 5. Substitute for house teleports 6. Temple Trekking (makes it MUCH faster) 7. Camping cockatrices for a trophy head (although that's probably just me) Slayer Helm is only really important for specs and dusties (and DKs if you do them). Everywhere else, it's just a little extra defense.

What to train?
Go for 50 runecrafting. Great Orb Project is very good cash for F2P.

AFKing
It'll work so long as you set the difficulty as though only one person is on the team. You take a significant xp penalty for that so it'll be slow going. What you'd really like to do is pay 4 people who are experienced dungeoneers and have them do 5:4 large dungeons, but I really doubt that'll work unless you have friends who are already willing. The more people you get doing the dungeon, the better the xp. Might also be worthwhile for you to find some skilling nodes and gain a bit of fishing/woodcutting/herblore/whatever xp.

Best Foraging Familiar?
Magpie, unless you're also using the fruitfall scrolls (which is viable with some activities like woodcutting ivy or running laps at the Gnome Stronghold agility course, although it does slow you down).

Bug in Community Blogs
Has anyone looked into this? It's still happening. Still no RSS either...I know the forum software allows for it.

Training Strength
Something wrong with your math here. D scim + rune defender is +86 attack, +71 strength. SS is +82 attack, +82 strength, +2 prayer. That's only 4 accuracy for the scimmy vs. 11 strength and 2 prayer for the SS. Sara sword is just better, and demonstrably so. <_< And like I said, you don't lose money on the SS because you sell it back later and break even. (You can even lend it out for a profit.) You only lose the opportunity of merching with that money, and frankly, if you're any good at merching, 9-10m shouldn't be an issue for you anyway. The whole issue is moot if you train on controlled with a whip, which is faster anyway, but if you're training strength alone you might as well use the best gear available.

Training Strength
Buy the SS. Train strength. Sell the SS. You should break even. If you're going to be training strength for any significant amount of time, the extra speed of the SS will add up to a lot of time saved in the long run. (And if you're not planning to train strength for that long, you might as well just use a whip on controlled.)

Costume advice
Ivandis Flail/Rod is a good weapon to match the quest cape. I've had success with a charged Armadyl Helm as well.

HELP MEEE!
You'll need to contact Jagex's customer service somehow.

75 crafting
Battlestaves are very efficient. Go with those.

Best Methods for Training Fishing
False, monkfish are slightly slower to catch and also better for xp and profit. I think monks are the way to go.
-
Training Strength
Use whip whenever you don't need to train strength specifically. Whip + defender is more powerful than the SS.

What to mage, battle robes and sol.
You don't need a full slayer helm to use a hexcrest. Just switch to melee for your dust devils and your aberrant spectres.

Fishing 90+
You've been watching some bad Youtube guides then. Sharks are terrible.

What to mage, battle robes and sol.
You could do slayer.

Tip.It Times - 4th July 2010
Really? It's not as if it's a surprise. Have you ever heard of a service giving a 7-day free trial that requires a credit card and doesn't auto-renew? It's not exactly fine print either. It's right at the top of the page.

Tip.It Times - 4th July 2010
The fictional article is all wrong. Players can't milk and attack the same cow. And Farmer Fred's farm is in Lumbridge, not Falador. For shame!

If you're going to have an audio track, I think it should be a voiceover explanation. There doesn't seem to be any reason for the music.

Questions
Torag, Guthan, and Dharok platebodies are all exactly the same, so use whichever of them is cheapest.

It degrades once every ~15 hours and it costs a few k to fix. Pretty much completely negligible.

99's
You might find the Runescoop skill guides useful for calculating your costs and determining the most efficient method. Crafting Prayer Herblore Cooking should just about break even or close to it if you use fish. You could also spend more and make wine, or make a profit making pizza or something...plenty of options. Magic is probably the most diverse skill in the game, though. There are more viable training methods for magic than there are for any other skill, and the cost varies a lot between them. So unless you already know which method you're going to use, there's not much we can do to tell you how much it'll cost for the supplies. Basically, name your price and you can make it cost that much.

Questions
You've never played BA before, then? If so, you don't really have any business trying to get a Fighter Torso. You can't get it in a reasonable time frame (i.e. fast enough that it's worth the trouble) unless you're already a pro with a pro team. You have 80 defense, so use barrows--it's almost always better than the torso anyway. And if you don't need the defense, use a Proselyte Cuisse instead and turn on your 10% strength prayer; it'll be more effective anyway. As for fight caves, I just waited until I got a Fight Caves slayer task. But I could see how you might not be interested in that if you can't use Kuradal yet.

Where's the best place to cannon a bloodveld task?
Mutated bloodvelds. Just set up the cannon in the middle of the room. Pro melee--they hit hard.

Warriors Guild
I was under the impression that the fastest tokens were obtained at the shotput using the infinite run from Oo'glog's salt spring. Is mithril really faster? Defender drops aren't affected by the ring of wealth. Wear a warrior/berserker ring.

Barb assault.
I always had the easiest time getting points collecting or healing. Collecting is probably easier if you haven't upgraded any roles. On this note, you guys should also add me ingame and pm me if you need a teammate. I don't get to play BA often enough, haha. :^_^:
