hm...nice scores :o been a while since I've been to gop O_o

I don't think anything special happens...A Jmod said that the finished statue is purely cosmetic

I'm being blinded a bit by the extreme narrow-mindedness I'm seeing in this thread (though it's all over the place, too)... People say that players aren't playing for fun anymore. Others say that people are too concerned about levels. Well, for me, I find leveling FUN. I find going for 99s FUN. I don't see why that's so impossible...People seem to think only THEIR way of playing is fun, and the things they don't like are fun, and if they don't think it is, then NO ONE can. Also, I'm pure f2p, and so I'm not really tempted to get my 99s for them (though I do think skillcapes are nice looking)...I remember when skillcapes were released, and I thought they were cool, and they only INCREASED my desire for a 99, they didn't create it. Anyways, I'll do whatever I find fun in the game, but as I find skilling and leveling fun, I do tend to focus on that a lot...As someone else said, people such as myself care about aesthetics as well, and I think skillcapes look good (which is why I plan on getting a Smithing cape on my noob acc which I occasionally get members on...I like the skill, would like the cape, and wish to create a good outfit to go with the cape)... But, more to the point of the thread, I don't entirely like what skillcapes have done...It's not hard to find, in game and on the RSOF, people who aren't going for a 99, but who are going for a skillcape...People who ask what your first skillcape was, not your first 99; who ask what your next skillcape will be, not your next 99; etc etc... I can't blame people for liking skillcapes, but I wish they cared more about the game or a skill than just the cape...

I'm experiencing the same problems. My friends list has been working for a while, on my main only though, but just stopped again after like 2 hours in the past 5 mins... Forums are also not working again. Jagex's system update = 1 fail + no explanation + me not getting a gop 1v1 Getting on my nerves...How am I supposed to discuss the good news of a new avatar series with my rs friends?

I played during that time...And TBH, I really didn't get very far...My earliest skills screenshot is from just after the HD update though, and my skills were even lower than they are now, my highest being 71 str I think. Nothing else over 70, or even 65 I don't think....But I was also a noob who thought 99s were impossible for me to get...It wasn't until after GOP came out, succeeded in it, and started going for 99 smithing that I realized all any 99 took was dedication...That being said, any of my skills easily could have been higher, and it wasn't a matter of anything being easier... Still, I wish all the skills in f2p were just as hard now as they were during that time...Mems can have all the updates they want, I just want f2p to stay challenging and rewarding :3 Sadly though, I held off on mining, which I originally planned to go for after 99 smith/mage...What I really wanted from 99 mining was to get a 99 from essentially the last f2p skill that hadn't been made easier in a very very long time (before I played)...And now it's too late...I honestly wouldn't care nearly as much if they made this update AFTER I got 99 mining (though I still wouldn't have liked it much), but now I've failed and I hate it with the deepest intensity... It's also troubling to know that this could have been prevented if Jagex hadn't done other stupid things first... And again, anyone wanna check out my RSOF thread ;3?

^THANK YOU. Unfortunately, as I do whatever is most efficient for me, I may train there (though if it gets too crowded and I have to go back to rim, I doubt I'll really complain)....I'd just prefer they stopped making f2p SO much easier >.< @Central: I didn't crash in that one, but the game screen froze if I stayed in the Dwarf mine one. I think it froze 3 times, but if not, definitely 2. ----- Also, if anyone would like to check out my suggestion for a Smithing Guild :3...Quick find code: 185-186-915-61172829 Sorry, since it's not complete yet, and it's not as formal as some of my other threads that I've made and take more seriously than others...But so far, I imagine it to be f2p, as none of it seems to be "good" enough to be mems only, really...I am being unbiased about it, but there's really no reason for any of it to be mems only from what I have atm...

Because they make going through the dung faster and give you better xp. Anyways...I'm assuming I'm the only one here as well who doesn't like it? I'm finding it harder to see why I even stay pure f2p...It's getting to be just as easy as mems... Challenge is what makes me stay pure f2p, really...But I guess Jagex didn't want to leave all the updates that eliminate challenge from the game for mems only...

I do think they need to make a total xp slot... They can keep the total xp next to the total level, too, but.... I feel too often people tell me they are better than me since they have a higher total level, but...In a lot of those cases, I have much more xp than them...

Another thing... I kind of hope Jagex just leaves f2p alone ;) Part of the reason I like being pure f2p is the extra challenge...Getting achievements in f2p seems so much more gratifying than getting them in p2p for that reason... But since I started playing, the game has certainly gotten a lot easier...(and that's just from when I started...)...I don't want it getting any easier...and usually, the only way to keep adding on to a game and keeping people interested in skills is by making it easier... Before GOP, I didn't think I would ever get a 99...Now I have 3, and it pains me to say that I got most of the money for those 99s from GOP...It's one of the best f2p money makers and certainly made the f2p game easier...Now, I like GOP, but a part of me hates that it made the game much easier for me... One of the reasons I want to get 99 mining is because nothing has really changed about it since I started...You can't buy it, so even though making money has gotten (astoundingly) easier for me, it still has more challenge to it... Of course, in some indirect ways it's gotten easier...Like more worlds that are less occupied (ex. Different Worlds for Different Nationalities on the home page)...But it does come with the cost of waiting longer for ores to appear, so at least that's got some balance to it... Now of all this, this game has also gotten easier since I actually know how to train better and more efficiently, rather than like a noob...So perhaps, some of the ease that has come hasn't just been from Jagex...

Oh, and as a side note... F2P isn't just a demo...It wasn't the intention...Sure, they want members and money, but F2P is still a game itself, with members being a sort of expansion. Just because you pay for extra doesn't mean the other side of the game doesn't exist or that it isn't the game in it's more original and basic form... And yes, the obnoxious ads do give Jagex some extra revenue...But that's not all... What do you think there's more of? F2P or P2P? I would guess f2p... And I would say that there are more snot nosed f2p brats spazzin to their friends about this cool new game they found...I'm sure a decent amount of f2pers and up getting OTHERS to pay a membership just by referring them to the game...So consider that as well.

Hmm what do f2pers need? A yearly, decent quest? Is that much to ask for? I'm not asking for constant quests, but once in a while, a new quest would be nice. And not just any quest, a higher level quest. All the quests now can be completed with low stats and 30cb...So is some sort of fairly-high level quest once a year too bad? Definitely better cb triangle...mainly mage...I mean...-looks down at stats-...I have 99 mage...but if I split myself into a mage and a melee fighter...My melee self would own my mage self...Several melee levels ago, my mage self would still be losing for sure...and that's just not right...So can we fix the whole 70meleestats>99mage issue? Hm...skill wise, I'm mostly all set...I wouldn't mind something skill-capeyish...It's not why I train, but I'd sure like something to show off ;)....If p2pers can show off their 2week long profit cooking cape, why can't I show off something that I worked harder for? I know they won't want to make (and aren't) skill capes f2p since so many people like them...but can't we get something else? MMG said they had something in mind, but I don't see it anywhere in the near future... Hm...anything else...? Hm...perhaps something to make prayer a LITTLE easier? It can still cost hundreds of mills, be a lot of clicks and be slow...but...Can't it be just slightly less torture? If not, w/e, they're already making the game way easier than it should be but...prayer is a different story :s

IYO, I'm only half nice. I can be nice. But I hate stupid people. If people ask a stupid question, I may not respond, depending on what kind of mood I'm in. Ex. How do I get to _____? If they really wanna know, they can use their minimap. I don't support laziness, so if noobs wanna be lazy and not check things for themselves, that's their problem. Other instances of stupid people occur at GOP. There are so many downright idiotic players there who would be lucky to score 5 orbs on their own playing that it just pisses me off. I've somewhat resolved that problem, as most of my GOP games for the past year and a half have been solo/1v1 games on private worlds. Seriously, people can say it's their first day or w/e, but it's a game of common sense when you start off. When you can solo like 15-20 or so then it starts becoming a game of technique and other specific factors... And in general, many people are just all-around stupid...So many different ways they are stupid that...I just can't be a nice person!...But if people are otherwise fine, I'm a nice person... I do however (and I made a thread about this) sometimes steal people's mining spots. Like when I need iron and addy ores (Dwarf mines)...K, I really can't spend an hour going to every single world HOPING that POSSIBLY one of them doesn't have people mining in one of the two spots I need. So, sorry, limited resources = competition, everyone has equal rights to it, it's fair game. I don't go out of my way to be a jerk, but damnit, I play RS to play, not to sit around waiting for an opening for hours on end. I am generally respectful to people and not just immediately taking over their spot (even though I don't have to be).

erm, your LP lvl is 70, but why you say low? my first time play FoG is when my hp is about 65 and i still able to use all bandage. if seem like you like to wait until low LP only use, then its major mistake from you there. yes, you have good point about how the minigame work, and it is weird ppl say runner noob. actually is them who noob for not running and lost. oh ya, not only skiller can help open high skill door, they can use money trick to get alot of resources, make thing for the team and not to say because of lvl 3 exist, the average lvl of the mob will be lower. interesting thing about wine of zamorak, someone confirm this? 14-15-4-60950438 Well, when people hit 20+ and I'm in the process of running away, and getting to a specific area, I can't click the bandage...So I may start out with high LP, but once people are taking away about 1/3 of my LP in a hit and I'm trying to run away (and not just spam clicking, I'm making careful, precise clicks), there's usually not a time that I can click the bandage immediately. As for the level 3 skillers, some do help out in some way...obviously I don't expect them to go fight, but ones I've seen (with over 85 Dung), don't do ANYTHING to help out. Now, the other people who play with them don't mind really, they just want the bonus xp at the end and easier monsters, so the skillers aren't being told to help...but still, they aren't doing anything and are getting levels that they didn't play for.

Hm... I'm working on fm atm too...And, right now (break tho ;) )...96 atm, almost 10m xp... For me, getting 99s is fun :) I sort of like to grind for a 99, with small breaks to train other skills a little...Like right now, I'm slowly getting wc, mining, and hopefully fishing up a little while getting 99 Fm... I did plan on 99 crafting after fm but...I wanted to make crafting a profit only 99...So that will probably be something I train when the prices are right... So after 99fm...Maybe I'll dung a bit more, return to gop for a bit, and train wc, mining, and fishing some more, and as I said, train crafting while the prices are right...And probably attempt to merch with my static cash (currently in a merch that has yet to rebound >.>)... I haven't played FOG on my main in a while...Not really at all after GOP came out...I played when it came out, got a rune zerk, sold it for almost 400k, got another, then got rc gloves to get my rc to 50...After that, I just played on noob accs..and still won most of my games ;D...On my low 30cb accs, I usually beat anyone under 80cb... What I don't like about fog is...When I have low hp, click a bandage, and i still die and see the bandage was never used...When people call me a noob for running (even tho I'm half their cb a lot of the time....I can only imagine the harrassment I would get playing on my main against lower level players >.>)...When people call me I'm a noob for running (And fail to explain that a decent sized arena was not made to stand in one spot...and then tell them if they want to avoid runners to go to duel arena)...So yeah...Good game...One that increases my self-esteem since I can win fairly easy :D...and one that, like the rest of runescape (and gop) has a decent amount of noobs... Also, I got my Tome of Frost like a week ago...Yay!....It is sort of annoying to see the level 3 moochers tho...The ones with 80+ Dung when all they do is stay at the starting point and rc the whole time...I mean do w/e, but you don't really deserve levels that you don't do anything for...

OMGGRATZJAGEXICANPOSTONFORUMS sry for trolling. Still not over the jagex-is-stupid thing yet... Oh i see 50k+ people have started playing since I last checked 10 mins ago....Lets see if I can get in...yeahhhh.... Still, stupid. Just sayin.

EPIC FAIL JAGEX. And it's not every day that I sound like a geek while being serious. I'm not one to complain about all of their updates...well, now that everythings about hittin 99s in a week, I am but... Isn't the reason this skill was delayed so long was so this WOULDN'T turn out to be a complete flop? Isn't this what the extra months of waiting were for? Also, I logged in on the site, and I can't make threads or comment...I need to either be a member or a "qualifying free player" (5M total xp or 1k Total Level)...-Checks my hiscores: 56M total xp-...-does complicated math problems-...Ok, so 56m > 5M...-More complicated math- Since 56M > 5M, and 5M is the requirement, I should be able to access forums... The funniest part is that some people got extra xp from this bug...Yet they have bonus xp weekends...Are there even employees at Jagex or is it a day care center with kids playing on the computer? How stupid are you that you'll give bonus 2.5x xp but you'll roll back the game for a little extra xp...Honestly, I don't know what else to say but to continue emphasizing how ridiculously idiotic they are... I have a decent amount of hw (AP Chem, anyone?), so it's not like I should be playing, but...still, I wanna play...and it's not like I even get what nucleons are in relation to mass defect and binding energy...

Idk, I wouldn't riot if the game went back to how it was in 2001... And I don't know the full extent of what training was like when the game was released, though I've read about it... I've been playing since 2005...my computer at the time wouldn't allow me to play before that =\...so I only know a few of the challenging aspects... I realize it's gotten A LOT easier though...It's not as if I think my 99s are of the same value as those of people who got it many years ago... But just because the game is getting easier doesn't mean it should continue to do so...I wish I could remember that quote I heard about "good" money and "bad" money... And yes, I can always not participate...and yes, I can train the same way people used to have to train...The fact is though, if this game's getting easier, I can't exactly just play 5x slower and keep up with others...Not sure if I've said it on here, but it's like how technology is always advancing in the modern world...You can choose to not use it, but you really won't be able to do much if everyone else uses it, and you really can't be that successful...ex: If you would rather walk to work since you don't like cars, you're going to have a much harder time getting a job, as other people will have that advantage...Still not sure if that helped it make more sense or not >.>

Like I said, I was only told it was f2p...and hoping it's not true... I will never understand most people who want these bonus xp weekends...People say it's "more fun"...how exactly? It's no different than before, other than getting more xp...? I guess it's, yet another, stupid human mindset of "bigger is better"...I feel like I'm one of the only people in rs who DOESN'T want this game to lose it's challenge...I'm surprised people are even playing still, rather than just waiting until Jagex starts handing out 99s for free...BUT ONLY 1 99/WEEK, CUZ OTHERWISE IT WOULDN'T BE FAIR AND WOULD BE 2 EZ.

guh! Once more I'm tempted to keep crafting while the money's good...I made another 1.1m in less than 2.5 hours yesterday of crafting...the rings sold instantly at max this am, so it kind of seems like its not crashing...but i'm still quite scared of losing money if I spend it all on crafting supplies and it crashes tomorrow...looking at the charts, this current climb of emerald item prices is the highest/longest so far...doesn't necessarily say anything about this time, but...it would take about a month i guess if they crashed to be able to sell them for a profit again...

Yes, I too saw the dump a'loomin...(<-sry for that)...I spent about 10-20 minutes today deciding whether or not to buy another batch of uncut emeralds to make into rings and sell tomorrow...later today i guess...I ended up deciding to use almost all of my cash (which is only around 14.5m) to buy supplies for rings...hopefully they go up tomorrow and still sell at max =\ should they begin crashing, i won't be happy, but I can't say I didn't see it coming...either way, the chance of me continuing after this batch is quite low...

@cutiefairy92 At this time we haven't decided when the next Bonus XP weekend will be but we are working on it. Ajd And I was told that it was confirmed the next one is f2p...Am I the only one who completely opposes this with passion? Everyone seems to either like them or feel indifferent. I don't like that my time and effort is just being tossed away. I know I'm not as accomplished as others, and that I've done a majority of my training in the past 2 years (which I also don't like knowing its been easier), but can they stop with making the game easier all the time? What the [bleep] is the problem with that? I know not everyone wants them, and there are "downsides" to it, but why can't we get skillcapes? I don't train for em, but I sure would like them. So now instead of showing my hard work, my hard work gets taken away. One reason I liked this game was because of the challenge and being able to show hard work. Now it's just like real life. [bleep] stuff.

I'm taking some advantage of the emerald situation. The past 2 days I've bought uncut emeralds, cut them, and made rings and sell them the next day. So far, I've made about 1.3m from it and it took me less than 4 hours....considering my other main money maker would be gop, it's nice to see that I'm currently making better money than I would at gop. Making rings atm too, and hoping they don't crash tomorrow...

O_o I don't think catacombs are THAT great...do explain ;o
