Don't think rune is worth it. If you want to make money then merchanting is certainly best...(only applies if you have stagnant money in bank) Otherwise, get to 91 rc and double nature away...it's even faster xp, and I think rc is faster to train than mining. Well, if you are a member. The ZMI altar works so well...*licks, then lamenting at lack of credit card* Or, if you don't want to put in so much time for rc-ing, then go fletching or woodcutting. Nice money for far less effort. Fishing I do not recommend as it's less money.

Gold-smithing with gold-smithing gauntlets? Quite a loss but very very fast. Do it in Edgeville.

Well, don't get banned! If I got banned I'd just start again, given my abysmal skills.

Whacking away at cockroaches to get to 60 Def...

I'm lv. 72 and looking for another similar level (best to be pure). We will take turns to kill each other, holding only the rune scimmy for 25k limit and protecting item. And see if anyone will get some rare drops... Please pm me if interested.

First, I highly discourage against mining coal at lv 48. I tried it ago when I was lv 48 mining. It sucked. It takes too long, and there simply isn't a decent coal mine near a bank. I would recommend you mine iron till 60 before you switch to coal. Then use the mining guild. Though if you insist, Dwarven mines in Falador should be the best.
