Halitophobia
How does it compare to a tooth brush? Looks like one but with harder/ticker bristles Well, slightly offtopic but I'll answer your question. Basically it's a very very soft, short brissled tooth brush, except alot wider and designed for the tongue so it doesn't damage the tissues in the tongue. It has worked well for me so far. The video itself has been out for at least 5 months, so I think most people will have seen it.

Halitophobia
Okay, where should I start. Haliphobia, the irrational fear of bad breath. Bad breath affects everybody, I infact come across it everyday from family members and often teachers, but it's not easy to talk about it (I mean, even best friends don't usually tell you). I came across a video found almost anywhere on youtube; it's a promoted video called "Bad Breath Test - How to tell when your breath stinks" This also made me think - Does my breath really stink? It's basically an advert for a product named 'Orabrush', not yet available in the retail stores. It just costs a few dollars for this product, which I have actually tried and has worked for me. The mentioned vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFeb6YBftHE And lastly, a few questions in this topic for readers; What do you think about bad breath? Does your breath stink :o? What do you do to prevent bad breath? And last but not least - How does bad breath affect you? Personally, teachers will sometimes talk to me real close and the foulness of the bad breath is just horrid. Discuss.

is this achievable?
Well, technically, if you put your mind to it everything is acheivable. The problem with the goal is the reward - You only get clue scrolls, and a few rune helms. I'd actually suggest aviansies because they drop one clue every 100-200 kills plus the longterm reward of adamantite bars which might keep you motivated (cash is always nice)

Item Flipping
flipping keeps the economy fluid. it helps assure that there is always a stock of items ready for sale at slightly higher price, and buyers for just a slightly lower price. Except in extreme examples like rares, staffs of light currently, where flipping doesn't apply. If everybody held onto the weapons and armors the perceived supply would be much much less, and prices would be much higher. Additionally, the economy would be less productive as a whole since people can't get the tools to hunt boss monsters, or train as effectively. *everything* would become much more expensive. losses from flipping are a small price to pay for an overall better economy for everybody When prices drop, people sell their items. This is the market's way of weeding out the players who don't need the weapons as badly. Only the players who actually use the item will be able to afford to keep it. Those who don't, will sell it to those who are more worthy. then of course, there are those people who keep items regardless. Either the items is too trivial to them to be worth selling, or they're just unfit for the economy. I agree with most of your post. Yes it's true, if everyone held onto items, the market would be alot tighter and it would technically force people to buy items for higher because the supply would be tied up. I don't know what to say now, I'll leave this here.

Item Flipping
I'd say it's the merchant's right to profit off people who are impatient enough to accept they have to pay a little 'convenience fee'. I find it annoying people can fuss over flipping as if it's actually hurting the economy.

Item Flipping
Lol at this thread. Flipping has been an art for years, nothing new. I think it's a fair way for legit merchants to make money, since it's another person's impatience which gives profit. Recently, the market has been slowly declining, so no, flipping isn't as good as it once was. I personally made 5%-8% a day with 200m+ investments, it's relatively safe as long as you stick with items that have demand and won't crash hard on you. I can't really comment much more on this, I haven't merchanted/flipped for over 2 months Wonder how you came about flipping... Hmm.. EDIT - Vid on flipping http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvKSOFVTvfk& Edit 2 - Wow, reading half the replies, looks like tif is becoming like the rsof. No, flipping and manipulation work differently. Flipping is about riding the waves of the economy. Say if 'x' item is rising, and a player is impatient to wait for 'x' item to sell for max, he'd sell it for mid price, for a convenience fee of potentially losing 5% of 'x' item's value. The player who bought it for mid price would profit because he was patient enough to wait for an impatient seller. <- This system does not FORCE people to buy an item for max, or sell for min. So technically, it's not stealing. Manipulation works in a few stages Leaders stock up on item, buying it a little above mid price for speedy buying. Leaders announce item, a massive clan of hundreds of people offer for max, forcing the price to go up and not enough supply for mid trades to become possible, forcing prices up. Leaders do nothing for a few ge updates. Leaders tell ranks to dump, as well as dumping the items themselves. They do NOT announce this. After the leaders have sold every single item to their clan, they announce the dump. Leaders would've stocked up another item somewhere inbetween. Repeat step 1. The way manipulation works FORCES people to buy the manipulated item for max, because with so many offers, there will not be enough supply to make mid price offers possible, because max price offers always have priority. This, is a pyramid scheme and technically stealing, flipping is not, just a new term for an old method of merchanting.

100% accurate Max Hit Formulas!
I know this is a very old thread, but when I clicked on your url's, I see no calculator. When I tried to spreadsheet the formula for max hits, I'm getting numbers wayyy off, so I think I'm doing something wrong. Mind helping me, Jard?

Bigger as in risking more or more ranged defence? Ahrims and Dragon Claws is probably a good choice if it's the first.

Lol I've seen full bandos and dragon claws downed from hand cannon alone. But it isn't really likely that it'll happen I guess.

16-Feb-10 Familiarisation (POST YOUR CLUES!)
It applies to almost all monsters except for things like bork that have a guaranteed drop. The ONLY part I'm confused on is the meaning of 'triple' Does it mean 3 times the normal charms, or drops 3 charms at once instead of 1 or 2. If it's the latter, it isn't going to make Rock Lobsters much better, besides, the time spent getting there will probably make Ct Waterfiends better overall

Not bad for a week's worth. Amirite Oh and over half the PvP items are corrupt. Corrupt loves me =( "Ooo Vls!!! O corrupt"

16-Feb-10 Familiarisation (POST YOUR CLUES!)
I think for us pre-99 Summon-ers, it's a fine update. Not overpowering with only 40 minute's worth of triple charm, but helpful nonetheless. I find the secondaries as a reward more useless really, unless it's a huge amount.

Tip.it Times 7 February 2010
I suppose these bosses won't get 15% health from a brew? I mean.... 15% * 2000 = 300 health, assuming another Corporeal beast monster will be made. >.> I really would love to see a monster with Dclaws and Hyb Gear... basically PvP in PvM. ;o

Tip.it Times 7 February 2010
The thing is; Most examples of 'not hard' boss monsters ARE hard. If you let them be. Say if Kree can randomly hit you through prayer. Now that's some KO factor. JaGex can do everything to make a monster harder, but with new updates, eventually it'll be like the KBD. What I'd like to see is a monster that can literally hybrid you in max gear. Would it be too difficult to make a Nukearcher as a monster? Hmmm. Actually; Can AI even acheive that?

08-Feb-10 - Musical Update & Strykewyrms
Lol. I think the SoL won't stay high forever. Sure, some people will pay 300m for one, but within a few days people will notice it's such a common drop that it simply isn't worth it. I mean, the situation is somewhat like Granite Maces. Common as hell drop. Maybe not as useless but still. With drop rates being somewhere around 1:200, even with the req's it shouldn't exceed 40m. ... I dunno. I've seen threads on the rsof calling it the new Mint Cakes. I just lol'd.
