FML? Sounds extremely emo, but then again most people are. Why is it emo? Because you make your life what it is.

Player's allignment to Zaros?
Zaros = Armadyl, we know this because Arma's staff is powerful enough for one to take Zaros on. And why do people think Zaros is evil? Did anyone hear the descriptions of the places he ruled over? Large shining city's in what is now the wild, the desert was not a desert then. Also, Dragons are minions of Zaros, and Dragons come from the Dragon kin. So would it be so hard to believe that Zaros may just be a Dragon kin? Plus I remember hearing something about the Dragon kin following no god. So it would make sense that a god like race would not follow other gods.. On another note: Why do people think that Zaros, and Guthix oppose each other? They both have been around long before Zamorak, and Saradomin so they could be best buds for all we know. Listening to the story's Juna tells about the light creatures, and the story's about Zaros's city's, both sound very similar.

New Icon Discussion [BIG UPDATES]
Ooh and certain monsters and items would only appear at certain times, seasons, or days of the week. Not going to happen, but that would be cool. That truly would be cool. It gets darker during night, maybe? And some street lamps come on and things of that nature. It is doable, but wouldn't be noticed AS MUCH. Darker how? Like the annoying images they stick on the screen when you enter caves?

Runescape is a psychological addiction, not a substance.
Who knows. I hear it has better physics, graphics, sound, and immersion. However, they still haven't figured out how to add in an ignore list, you need an extra device for a friends list, there's no audio/visual tweakable options, and there's no instancing. Also, there's a play limit, and permadeath. It's very easy to die, healing is very expensive considering it's keeping you away from permadeath, and your play experience is randomly decided when you join (IE: Wealth, etc) Permadeath? I thought that was an obsolete MMO model. Somehow they managed to snag over 6 billion and counting into playing though, so there has to be some redeeming quality; though I've yet to find it. Siggied *edit* I could not sig it, it had to many chars. Next time you say something reasonably sig worthy, try using fewer letter ;), Jk

New Icon Discussion [BIG UPDATES]
It would be a huge waste just to put a simple counter in a tab. I could see a time button put in between the map, and compos, but a tab just for a clock? That would be a very sad waste of the Summoning tab. On a side note: How the hell will day, and night work in SD?

Impossible friendships achieved through runescape
I'm antisocial, so I don't have relationships in RS or RL, only acquaintances. To me a friend is someone I do not hate, and the list of people I hate is very small, so your all friends :P

Brawlers ---- Now Useless.
Actually, more people will be using magic because it's cheaper than melee to pk with, and magic is even more powerful without as many expensive melee weapons in pvp. I don't see nature runes doing anything significant. So magic got an update in a very odd, and unexpected way.

Should I Get a Wii?
Only games I would like to play that are on the Wii are: Metroid Prime 3, Tales of Symphonia 2, SSBB, and Fire Emblem 9 Goddess of Dawn. The Fire Emblem series is my favorite of all games.

not getting a monster to kill
So being a higher level makes your 7$ a month worth more then anyone who is a lower level? So being a higher level, and a player with more GP gives you the right to grief others? By your logic, your saying that we should allow scamming, because if they don't know enough not to fall for it then its their fault for being a newer player. I see, you think lower leveled players are merely obstacles in your path that need removing so you can achieve supremacy. Am I wrong? Good work, maybe you should become a detective. If things can go wrong they will. In a business like Jagex, no one player pays more then another, everyone pays 7$ a month or 5$ if you buy long term, level does not affect membership costs. So very few people paying 7$ a month would result in a failing business. So your saying players only play Runescape, because they have the hope of surpassing Zezima? Don't make me laugh!

not getting a monster to kill
Principles are just that. Principles. Not laws, and they don't have to be followed. And it's not saying "this is MY SPOT, you all leave at once". It's just being better, and hell, being smarter than most of the people there. You don't HAVE to leave, but you really SHOULD and probably WILL. If you have the money to support a cannon, then we shouldn't be crippled by the poor level 70s. Once more, grow up. What are laws? They are principles in action. No they do not have to be followed, but everyone would benefit if they did. You say that you should not be crippled by newer players? Why the hell should newer players be crippled by you? Do you think yourself better then everyone else? Get off your high horse! Extreme hypotheticals are not a basis for an argument.Yawn. Maybe so. Competitiveness is not inherently good or bad. It's just competitiveness. The weak die so the strong live. Survival of the fittest, it's the basis for the world today. I never said it was good or bad, but it can both motivate people to better themselves, or cause them to destroy one another. Do not talk of "Survival of the fittest", if you run a business on this model where only the best costumers can stay, and the "weak" are ostracized then you will have no more customers, and no more business. You can stay in the world if you want, but you probably won't. You don't own the world, and neither do us cannoners. But we can definetly fight for it better than you can. We win 99% of the time. Because you can crush others into leaving does not make it right, on whole you are are pushing back the progress of many other players for the sake of your self, but you don't seem to understand concepts like "community", so I can't begin to tell you what you are doing is bad for the community, because you won't understand it.

Poll: Slayer Update
I want a cheaper slayer dart that hits higher. I want them to do for Magic what they did for Range with Broad bolts. Range, and Melee both got HUGE bonuses after the Smoking Kills quest, but Magic got NOTHING :wall:

not getting a monster to kill
The Cannon should be removed from Runescape, or at least fixed so it can not hit multiple targets in a single way combat area. The cannon is a extremely selfish thing, it goes against the principle "The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few", because one person can take over several spawns form 2 or 10 other people. It is like saying, "All right, this is MY spot all of you leave at once! Your nothing, all exp, and drops are MINE". If everyone followed your logic of, "If you don't like people taking kills from you with a cannon then get your own. Then what? Everyone will end up with small rooms loaded with cannons, and no one would get even one tenth the exp that they used to there (except slayer exp). So lets keep this symbol of animosity, and help ruin the community some more, all in the name of competitiveness :thumbdown: . Or we can realize that being competitive is only good until taken to the point where we step on other peoples ability to succeed just for our own personal gain. :thumbup:

camera angles
Let me explain. The 2 keys are Right, and Up, so if we look at a map of Runecape, we see Right is East, and Up is north. So we end up with N/W, and what is north-west? Kudos Island! And what skill will we unlock at Kudos Island? SAILING! See its all just one big hint to Sailing! ^^^Sarcasm^^^

Should dieing in Runescape be more dramatic?
Yeah, lets add Nvidia's PhysX to Runesacpe, That way only people with an Nvidia card can play! Plus it will be very awesome to display uber complex physics in an MMO with thousands of people in the same area at once! ^^^^I think that would crash the internet

I had a thread locked for no real reason
I did not break any rules, and the thread still had discussion value It was merely locked because some people did not understand the point I was trying to get across, and I was not even able to come in and clarify on what I was saying. I am saddened to see things happening here like they happen on RSOF, I used to believe that Tip.it held higher standards :cry:. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=802249 I was going to reply with: Think of your max HP as 100% , and it can be reduced by taking hits (This is a non-debatable fact). So if a hit does 25% damage to your HP then you are left with 75% If you are hit four time 25% then you are dead. 75 of 75 is 100%, but 75 of 100 is 75%, and 52.5 of 75 is also 75%. Hitting a 35 on 75 HP is the same as hitting 50 on 100 HP. Which would say IF (not that it does now but if it did) 99 defense lowered a hit by 17.5 and you have 99 def, and 75 HP, and they hit a 75 it would be no different then the existing system with a player having 100 HP, and being hit by a 75, because both would take away 75% form your hit points. So a skill that reduces hits is the same as raising your HP. This is all about people wanting defense to lower the max hit of your opponent. I am saying that there is no point in changing one skill, or adding a new one that does the same thing as hit points If you can not understand this reply, then maybe Zybes will. leave the the thread locked :cry:

Defense DOES lower max hit
Okay I'll start off by stating that when I say "defense" I am not referring to the Defense skill, but to all defensive skills: Defense, Hit points, Prayer, and Summoning. Now the Summoning, and Defense skills don't not effect your max hit, but Hit points, and Prayer do. Since we know that the Prayer skill unlocks access to the Divine, and Elysian [Elysian means bliss if you did not know(Bliss shield FTW?)] spirit shields both lower max hit in a very obvious way there will be no need to discuss them. So the main focus of this thread is the Hit points skill. Now you ask; "How does hit points lower max hit?" Well let me explain. Lets say you have 75 HP, and you get hit a by a 75, their hit was 100% damage. Now lets say you have 100 HP (you boosted it with your cape to make math easier), and you get hit by a 75, their hit is now reduced to 75%, and did not hit 100%. Do you understand? RAISING YOUR HIT POINTS IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS REDUCING THEIR MAX HIT. I'll explain some more. Lets say we now have a new combat formula, one in which the Defense skill lowers the hits of your enemy. let say you have 75 HP, and they hit a 75, but your defense lowered it to 52, so they hit 75%. See it is 75% damage either way! whether you lower their hit or raise your HP, 75% IS 75% EITHER WAY!!!!! Hopefully this will clear up some of your anger causing you to ask for an ability that is already in Runescape. Now I I'm going to C/P this into some threads on the Rants board.
