To the people who were commenting on whether the level 85-armor would be f2p: Looks like it has potential to be a good month, but I'll wait until the updates actually come out before placing judgment on this one. EDIT: Did anyone else notice they called them "minigames" again and not "Activities"?

Why not just give each of them one half of the badge? or maybe give one 3/4 the badge and the other 1/4 the badge..or something? :razz:

Yes, there will be a successor, but Obama, as a founding figure of Al-Queda, and the person who took direct responsibility for the attacks, was extremely important to his people. Think of it as the combined George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Gandhi all being killed. So long as he was alive, they would always have him to rally behind, and would never truly have the fight knocked out of them. I believe that killing Bin Laden won't end the war, but you can't end the war without killing Bin Laden. ??? WOOOWWWW major typo. My sincerest apologies, it's 2:30 here. :oops: #-o Fixed.

Same. We should be glad, but not like this. Being excited like some people are makes us seem like savages. This is extremely evident to me as I hear the people down the hall screaming until they're blue in the face and pass out from lack of oxygen. While it's not a wonderfully exciting thing that a person's been killed, it's still a significant moment for the whole war on terrorism thing. Even if/when he's replaced, it's still not the original person who died. From the point of view of his followers, it is as if the combimation of Abraham Lincoln, Jesus, and Ghandi died. Wonderful? No, but still one of the most significant moments in the war and much more likely to be effective than the standard airstrike.

Now i'm going to have to memorize each tip of the week until I finally make the time to get into routine dungeons. :rolleyes: At least the point-reduction of the lividfarm upped my timetable, but i'm still probably not going to have enough freetime to do dungeons until finals are over. :wall:

The way I see it is that this wouldn't be a goal to grind for, or even a goal at all. This would just be something that a person could spend their excess tokens on if they so wished, in order to compensate for their bad luck. I view 2m tokens as fair for this, as a fair amount of players will have seen one or two soulgazers by 103/104 dungeoneering (ignoring the fact that they probably bought themselves some shiny new chaotics). This could simply be a mechanism to help people who are interested in perusing dungeoneering even further, but extracting a fair price.

How dare you deny the sanctity of the rubber chicken? :P 200k tokens is very cheap for a mid-long term dungeoneer (Thinking 90+). I would've traded my cls for a hexhunter in a heartbeat if it was an option <_< . 200k tokens would make it lose any semblence of rarity. Virtualy everyone on a warped floor would use one. :unsure: I actually think 2m tokens wouldn't be very unreasonable for a hexhunter. As many people wouldn't even consider such a price a viable option, it'd still be fairly rare and sought after, but it's still on the table for those shooting for something like the master-cape, but have had a terrible luck-streak (which is entirely possible as far as soulgazers are concerned :rolleyes: )

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you need the required slayer level for knockback damage. Maybe you can cast vengeance on the person who has 99 slayer and technically do damage that way. :rolleyes: Well...every time I find magebane in a dungeon, i'm going to carry around firebreath whisky and a water-filled vial..just in case. :unsure:

You guys are going to make me work for my hypothetical hex drop now? :rolleyes: *Binds a strong Survivalist potion* Doesn't positing the Guideline-check on page 85 mean I could get away without reading the guidelines? :wink: *makes a note to get the last 250k to 92 slayer ASAP so he can use standard survivalist potions to boost to 99*

@Obt: Okay then. He never particularly used the term "undocumented", so I suppose I made the assumption that he meant personal experience in general. If this is, in fact what he meant, and I merely misinterpreted it, I do apologize. As to the current point 4 being discussed: The definition of a moderator is "kept or keeping within reasonable or proper limits; not extreme, excessive, or intense". To go through and deal with all the people who have incorrect/inaccurate information is not only an intense increase in workload, but isn't even part of their job description. To redefine this job description would mean to rewrite the internal workings of the forums, and I imagine some people would not be amused to be "censored" in this manner. The mods primary directive is to serve their community, and dealing with inaccuracies is indeed part of this, however as Koaala just stated, mods who are behind in their information could possibly be prone to inaccuracies. I would propose a new position lower than moderator would be ideal for this goal.

Did you come up with this concept through personal experience and memories? The artisan-workshop affair sounds like a personal experience to me. :rolleyes: I agree, ignorance is in general something that will hurt the community. However, research can only get you so far. For example, suppose a new update has just been released, such as a new boss monster. Sure, you could go to the KB, look some some of the information there, but in general there is no replacement for actually going to the boss, trying out different methods, and finding out what works best. Personal experience is, in fact, a very specific type of research. Personal experience is key to defining each person's core being, and the difference between people is what generates their different opinions, ideas, and concepts. These items are some of the core foundations behind any successful community. There's no point to a community where every being is the same. Are personal experiences enough to justify a full-fledged argument? No. However, research, personal experiences, and the combination thereof are the backbone of many concepts and strategies that we use today.

That still hurts people like me who have a clan that they're already subscribed to and do not wish to leave it. Personally, I don't believe members or potential-members should be penalized for being in another clan or community.

has anyone ever seen this before? We hadn't even been on a frozen floor. This just happened randomly while he was pushing the blocks. I didn't get a picture of it, but he had the typical to'kash options (i.e. free frozen adventurer) and got hit for 180 damage when it broke open. Has this been around for a while, and I just missed the memo? <.<

It's been on the to-do list for a while, but the tokens always found their ways into other things. (First it was chaotic crossbow, then it was rigour for nex teams, etc.) But yes...58k tokens for t-9, and i'm at 5k atm, since I just purchased rigour (or null, according to the a-log). and I wouldn't mind upgrading it when I got the chance. :unsure: EDIT: what's the standard policy for third-binds anyway? The front-post wasn't particularly clear. I still have a platebody since I occasionally keyed for W148 (although I don't believe i'm quite up to the ability-level of the clan's keyers yet), is there a typical third-bind besides that that's generally used?

Huh? :3 Has DGS got to the point where it's aimed at more higher levels and those DGSing are the ones in the clan? Ooooor.... :ohnoes: I wouldn't say being able to do floors 30+ is aimed at higher levels. A really promising keyer (jedi) was sub 80 before he came to dgs. He had the right attitude and could key well so he fit in perfectly. The reason we're closing dg sweepers cc is so we can use the Dgs cc with all the snazzy new ranks (and whats the point in having 2 ccs?) Just throwing this out there, but that kinda seems unfair to dgsweepers who already have a clan. I realize my observations on this matter carry limited weight, as i'm unfortunately not a part of the community (I never joined due to the fact that my Berserker is still tier-8 and the front-post emphasises that +100 dgers must have tier 9 or better, sadly), but speaking from this perspective, I would have to say that I am rather discouraged from joining in the future if I have to leave my current community to consistently participate with DGSweepers. Just my thoughts.

I really didn't care for the update when it was first announced...but I still have to admit, those pictures look pretty good. I wonder how extensive the color-choices for those capes will be.

Imagine when the ancient mage came and tried to kill your group. XD EDIT: N64 beat me to it. I fail. :wall: Yes, it was up to 50 people, that was j-mod confirmed on forums. As I recall, the QFC was posted on the tip.it thread for the Livid Farm update itself. On another note, Is nex really invulnerable to veng? I know her magic attacks aren't effected by it, but I have seen my character do the little "taste vengeance" line when he gets attacked by melee.

Last time I checked, p-mod reports didn't get priority where macroing was concerned. They got sent to the same detection-system. Then again, this was from ~1 year ago, so it could've changed since then. @Knife: Most of the ranks in those j-mod clan-chats have no sense of humor or patience, due to the amount of genuine trolls they see. Innocents get caught in the crossfire all the time. @Ring: What would you consider popular botting locations? The flax fields? Jagex could ban all the bots there, and they could all be back within under an hour, presuming the owners are on top of things.

...Was this always there? O_o

That's because there's two copies of Kuradal's area. One for people who've prepared the dragon-forge and one for people who haven't. :P

I've been hearing this a lot lately, and I cannot figure out for the life of me why. I still consistently get ~1k crims per trip, about the same as before the RoW update. Maybe I just failed at it before the update. <_<

Viggo Mortensen If he's good enough for Aragorn, he's good enough for me. :P

On the topic of the bet-doubling, I'd have to quote n64jive from a previous thread: If you only do this one time? Yes, odds are that you will profit. Doing it repeatedly? Odds are it's going to come back and bite you.
