I've supported the tip.it archaeology skill and I'll support it on rsof. to two above ^ not everythin has to be combat and IMO summoning failed. only a handful of the hundred or so familiars are useful

Okay, which skills do you think people can brag about? Which skills are difficult to train, slow and/or expensive to train, and useful all the way up to 99? I can think of summoning, and that's it. Maybe the quest cape, but that's not a skillcape. Why single out firemaking (and cooking) as n00bier than the others, when only one other skill actually meets your criteria for being worthwhile? u left out mining...lowest number of 99s and its been around since the very beginning of the "world" as we know it (that world being runescape :lol: )

u killing [garden tool]-Oh!!!!!!! u monster! you do not belong in this world!

it doesnt always work...friend risked 200k and i got spinal plate....and it was a fair fight, lasted a good 3min...and it wasnt "fixed" because we both had decent gear on and both teled via ardy lever. jagex prob wont change...its at the discresion (sp?) of the players and how much theyre willing to risk for a gamble. usually its their loss

#2 bull [cabbage] yea for the average scaper, bandos chest is a distant dream. it is hella expensive. anything over 6m+ for a piece of armor, no matter the bonuses, is expensive and only worth it if u can afford many other things. back on topic: i would rather work for a torso than buy a rune plate...torso gives str bonus which is great for str training (for obvious reasons)

epik win...bow down to MTK lvl 1 clues ftw!!!!

[hide=] [/hide] i spotted local guy and he said i failed... -.- nice inventory....net worth 100m+? unspammer9000: awwww crap! forgot to screenie smither sid on world 99 at falador farming patch! noooooo!

whats this like the 500th thread made about this? imo, summoning is easy to buy, u just need the cash...plus charms are a common drop from many slayer tasks. do you want it to become the next fm in terms of buyability? even if u set standard prices, they would plummet because everyone with charms in bank would b selling to make some cash. to go with my friend bunkie, jagex would probably make them tradble (hope they dont) when over *9000* people have 99 summ and it becomes as common as an atk cape...then no one would really profit no.

no cash making is "easy", cept mayb MTK but u gotta keep approval up. id say go with MTK if u really are that *lazy*

compared to mining, its nothing. and it really doesnt take all the much if u do it the right way, with more than 1 tinderbox

if u want easy lvl 1s without doing anything, do MTK with fishing. ive gotten ranger boots from lvl 2 before :thumbsup: back when they were 900k :x

logging out barely takes a second if ur a fast typer and kno ur pass and ur userisnt down pat. id suggest doing iron to 70, then granite to 85.

which is y most ppl dont understand y others put down their fletch.fm/cook cape, especially if they wear it with hood and it is untrimmed. chocobo IS win

bad idea. there are so many charms produced from virtually every slayer task, and prices would drop, and summoning will become the next firemaking in terms of diffculty to achieve 99

troacctid: if you praise fm so much, y dont u have 99 in it? and dont use a bogus excuse like "i dont have the money" or "i dont have the time/patience for it"

smithing u can use goldsmith guantlets. to be honest, save the money. getting a 99 for the sake of getting a 99 and not truly enjoying the 99 u are getting is epik phail. better to put that money towards a 99 u want and not achieve it with that sum of cash than blow it on a bogus 99 that u dont really want but really want a cape

[hide=] You'd be surprised. What if you do enjoy fm? So if you need to spend extra time getting money to pay for the materials for a skill, the skill deserves less respect for getting 99 in? What? Dude, some people like training firemaking. Why do you assume that nobody likes firemaking? I thought you said skills that cost money to train deserve less respect. Yet you place such high value on herblore, prayer, and smithing? Practically every skill is "clicking the same place over and over again." Welcome to Runescape. So what's the use of herblore? Or slayer? What about smithing, fishing, woodcutting, construction, farming, and runecrafting? All supposedly "respectable" skillcapes, yet none of them have any practical reasons for getting 99. Firemaking gets the inferno adze at 92. What does farming get? The last thing you can plant is torstol, which is useless for planting, and spirit trees, which you can plant at level 83...not even a quarter of the way to 99. Herblore loses money on every potion except super weapon poison, and even then it's only because the ingredients are untradable...it's always cheaper to sell the ingredients and just buy the potion than to make it yourself. I could go on, but I hope you see that "uselessness" is not a measure of "n00biness." [/hide] i assume u read every word of my post. so y do u choose to omit the parts such as: also, i dont think buyable skills deserve as much respect certain non buyables, but they do deserve a lot more respect than easy to obtain buyables. the buyables i mentioned are costly, and yield no profit in return for the money and time spent. true, 99 fm yields no profit whatsoever and no return, but you can just drop <10M on it and achieve it in a matter of weeks. those other skills cost an upwards of 40m+ and take months. getting a 99 shouldnt be for the sake of getting a 99. it should be because u really want 99 in that particular skill no matter the costs. dont expect people to give you any respect if u got 99 fm (or fletch or cook) just for the sake of getting a 99 skill. and usually u can tell. u look up their stats, and if fm/fletch/cook is their highest by a wide margin (being closest second skill is at like sub 85ish (works better if non combat), then chance are that that person only got 99 in any of the 3 skills for a cape. the point of a 99 is so that it is an ACHIEVEMENT, not a reward. if you think u should be praised for getting 99 in a fairly easy skill, then you, my friend, are truly a noob, worthy of a noob cape. it doesnt matter how much time you put into it if the only reason u got it was to get a cape so you can be "equal", and in my mind, those people are lower than those without a cape.

new race!

I don't deny fm takes some time and concentration. maybe not as much as cooking or fletch, but who honestly enjoys burning cash? why not use that time wisely and get close to 99 in a different skill u enjoy? u get 99 fm for a shiny cape. and usually it's untrimmed, which says even more about the person wearing it. I'm getting 99 mining. fm is nowhere close to as difficult as mining, since u can't buy the materials needed to achieve 99. all u get is a rune pick. and lots of rocks to click on. and it gets respect because u cant buy it and it is slow as hell. if u are sick of people putting down ur fm cape, take it off, stash it somewhere in your bank, get a respectable 99 (probably in a skill uve always wanted 99 in) and wear the cape I've always wanted proudly, not a cape that u think u deserve respect for just because u have a cape and they don't. if someone goes to me and says "where's ur fm/fletch/cook cape?" I laugh because I can easily get 99 in any of those 3 skills, and I don't because they're worthless, and I'm getting 99 in a skill I enjoy. the only time I respect 99 fm is if that player has 99s in skills such as herb, slayer, prayer, mining, smith, and rc and they choose to wear the fm cape over those. that person is truly dedicated to fm, and that's the only time it deserves so much as an iota of respect.

tbh...g/e spots and party room spots when theres a party drop about to commence r lame... :thumbdown: unspammer9000:

do gold in arzinian mines after between a rock quest...its faster and more money

i doubt they have that many computers or will want to waste their time because of the IP thing jagex will catch them and ban all their acc...
