I just finished my Freshman year of swimming last month. I've been swimming on easy competitive teams since I was 6, so it wasn't exactly anything new. I didn't think I'd enjoy it that much, but overall the season wasn't that bad. Some times (to the nearest second): 100 free 1:03 100 fly 1:09 (this is definitely my event) 50 28 (I'm not that great of a sprinter, but I don't have the strength for long long distance :? ) I'm not exactly a record breaker, but I was good enough to swim some varsity and make it to Regionals. That's good enough for me. :grin:

^this, though I admit I don't stay up to date with the discussion thread, I just read it every once and a while.

Good read, and I have to agree, the word "shape" does seem out of place in that sentence. TBH though, I don't see how shape-shifting would fit into the game as a skill, especially a f2p skill.

Yeah, I saw those two while runecrafting yesterday. Didn't know what to think of their names. :roll:

Overall, I like this new approach to a holiday event. It's more fun and interactive then the normal way. Being and impatient person, I admit I don't like having to wait a full day for the next clue, but I think I will survive. :P

I think this is a great thing. Many people do and say things over the internet that they normally wouldn't. This shows these people that there are consequences to their actions. I doubt many people are going to read this article and change their ways, but still, it's nice to see action being taken. :thumbup:

ingles :D (english)

Though I haven't achieved as much as most, I am still very proud of achieving 90 mining and buying a santa hat.

Though it would be nice to be able to customize our characters a bit more, I don't think your idea would work very well. It would over complicate the game. In my opinion, it would be maddening to have to change back and forth between races just to be able to complete certain quests and tasks. I agree with this. If Jagex were to implement your idea into Runescape, people would simply choose to transform into the race that has extra abilities that would help with whatever task they were trying to accomplish. For example, if someone were training to 99 mining or smithing they would become a dwarf because they could achieve their goal faster then if they were a vampire or elf, etc. Also, adding this new aspect might make people even more obsessed with training efficiently, because most people don't like to waste money. An example: Person1: Bobby, come keep me company while I mine. Person2: No can do, that would be a waste of my time. I'm in elf form right now because I'm training magic. Person2: Will you still be training mining next week? I plan on transforming into a dwarf then to train my mining.

While reading the articles I thought to myself, "There seems to be a theme here." I guess I was right! :roll: On another note, "The Big Adventure" is one of the best written Tip.it Times articles I've read. It irks me when a author says something once in a article and then goes on to repeat it again unnecessarily; Jp7725 did an excellent job at writing an article that flows together nicely. :thumbup:

I enjoyed the first article by Master Smither, it's definitely my favorite of all the articles from the past few weeks. I do hope there is a follow up on the subject sometime soon.

I really don't spend that much time on the homepage, so it's fine with me; I just click the button to play as soon as the it loads anyway. I do hope it does not become a regular thing though.

I've probably scanned over the link to the store on the Tip.it home page before, but thought nothing of it. To answer the poll though, I've never bought anything from the store, and I didn't really know it existed.

Both articles this week were very well written. I liked that they stuck to their chosen topic and did not jump around. :thumbup: In response to the question at the end of the second article: As a F2p player, I prefer the updates that blend into the game. For example, the addition of mini games in F2p would be considered a rather large update, but I appreciate the route finder update, an update that most easily forget, much more. I don't play mini games that often, but I run all the time while going about my business in Runescape. Being a perfectionist and an impatient person, I used to get rather frustrated while running, but now I can enjoy the task at hand much more because I am not being side tracked.

I doubt any celebrity is going to admit they play Runescape. Mod MMG doesn't reveal his regular account's name because he wants to play as a normal player; most celebrities would take this approach. I have another celebrity to add to the list that plays WoW; Mila Kunis, Jackie, from That 70's Show. Otherwise known as the "hottest geek." I read about it in an article somewhere, I'll see if I can find it... Edit: I found something about it on the Wow website, Appearently she's quit. :(

Um... Because you found a smiley face in runescape... :twss: Yeah, because generally all the faces in Runescape are frowning. :lol: Just kidding, I couldn't help myself. :

I think this is what matters most. Sending in lots of reports doesn't say much about you as a person, other then that you've skimmed over the rules. Hopefully now we will see more moderators who really know what their doing and can communicate that well.

I LOL'd SO HARD \ Really, why? :? I didn't think it was that funny...

Look what I found! \ A face among the coal rocks in the mining guild. The two rocks at the top are the eyes, I am the nose, and the rocks along the bottom form the mouth.

I'll keep an eye out! :)

I agree. A thumbs up to you for being positive! ^and lol at the above post.

Oh, they lose money now? I used this method a few months ago, and I profited. I'm sorry airforce290. :oops:

To use this method, simply buy gold bars on the Grand Exchange, then go to a furnace with an amulet mold and the bars and craft the bars into amulets. When your done, sell the amulets on the Grand Exchange. They should sell rather quickly.

No, because he will most likely be number 1 in highscores. Note: These posts were made in the year 2006. Well, it's nearly three years later and Zezima is no longer ranked number 1, but he definitely has not been forgotten. And i don't think he ever will. Yeah, it's hard to imagine. I mean, where would we be without all our Zezima jokes?

I was just reading the first few posts, and came across this: No, because he will most likely be number 1 in highscores. Note: These posts were made in the year 2006. Well, it's nearly three years later and Zezima is no longer ranked number 1, but he definitely has not been forgotten. Edit: Sorry, didn't see Saruman44's post above. But, to Saruman44, those posts were made several years ago.
