I'll oblige and not tell you that I wouldn't say no, I would say no.

More motivation for the 5k games, right?

Dat FPS.

Bilrach shouts "Praise Zamorak!" when idle - I saw him do it several times when investigating the statue and generally examining the room.

I was quoting someone, not that it matters. Take your "new generation" to Off Topic, if anywhere. Hopefully a mod can flush out this digression.

Weeaboo WoW, just what the doctor ordered!

Congratulations on selling those bones!

Corp seems to drop them quite frequently. I got a similar droprate when the tickets first came out, but the rate for me soloing seems to be about 1/15 kills will give a ticket - the sad part is when you get a rune pickaxe or something and it's worth more than the actual corp drop.

I couldn't give a flying gibbon-on-a-tricycle about the DG updates tbh, I can't see them making things that much faster. Congratulations to the fishers though, sounds like you're in for a much nicer time. I CAN give a hoot about Goliath Gloves now having a percentage though <3: : No more getting three punches into the Corporeal Beast just to have them break due to the ambiguity of "Almost falling apart" :thumbsup:

Well, time to drink my own piss. Paranoid: Very High Schizoid: Very High Schizotypal: Very High Antisocial: Very High Borderline: Low Histrionic: Very High Narcissistic: Very High Avoidant: High Dependant: Low Obsessive-Compulsive: Moderate I second guessed myself on the second guess question, then laughed my arse off.

No, if you had an endless supply of cash, you'd buy out RuneScape. If I had lots of cash, I'd buy Rainy.

I'd personally love such an update. One strange scenario would be having many clue scrolls all at the same clue, so that speaking to Uri would give many clue scroll caskets. I've done multiple clue scrolls in conjunction with one another; my maximum being 3 hard clues at the same time. It's a pain, but without the need to drop and relay, I think it would perhaps be faster than doing two individually, as you're likely to find times when the two scrolls are at similar locations.

120 solo kills in, using the goliath method. Still no sigil, but at least 1 of every other corp drop. Then this:

I recently bought an Intuos 5, my first ever tablet. I must say that I am massively happy that I took the advice of nearly everyone I asked concerning them - buy the one you're going to keep, don't go cheap as a "taster." This is because the difference between many of the cheaper options and the real thing like the Intuos 3/4/5 is incredibly large, you're either going to instantly know that you want a better tablet and end up buying a better one straight away, or find the cheap one so damn awful that it puts you off tablets for good, meaning you miss out on something you'd potentially love if you got a decent one. (after using my Intuos 5 for a few days, I had a go for the first time on a friend's tablet - I forget what the name was, something beginning with R - and well, I just couldn't stand drawing on it for more than 10 minutes, it felt slow and uncooperative.) Size wise, certainly match your monitor. The larger the better, really, but just look at your desk - how much room do you have? I'm used to painting and drawing on very large, vertical canvases so I was thinking of opting for an XL tablet - thank God I didn't. The L I got is just the right size (big enough to be a nuisance in terms of fitting my keyboard on at the same time, but small enough to be manageable and slide nicely in my keyboard-drawer-thingy to keep it safe when not in use) With the Intuos 5, you get a whole range of touch-based wizardry, which makes navigation of pretty much any software a breeze - I'm yet to find anything that doesn't allow high levels of customization apart from the Auto desk program I got with my Intuos 5 as a free software addition - quite annoyingly, there seems to be no way to make the tablet control brush size with the program :( One thing I must note here, however, is how terrible Wacom are. They really are a waste of time; prices outside of the US are roughly double those inside for no calculable reason - I even considered getting an American friend to buy my tablet and ship it privately. Don't even dream of buying any additional things like a carry-case or bag, they're horrendously bad quality and the customer service is to the degree of IDon'tWantToLiveOnThisPlanetAnymore that you're not going to be seeing a refund this side of NASA's next launch. Sadly, they're also pretty much the only place where you're going to find a good quality tablet :wall: If you're looking for a good tablet that you don't need to upgrade and isn't a stupid price like the Intuos 5 was, I'd go for an Intuos 3. This tablet is what nearly every concept design artist for games companies such as Bethesda starts out with, before expanding their horizons and buying a cintiq - don't look at cintiqs, they make you feel insecure about how terribly poor you are. Intuos 3s also don't have the "paper like texture" that Intuos 4 and 5 have, which I find is just another way of saying "The tablet's gonna wear down your nibs before you've even started planning your first sketch, don't worry though, we'll sell you more nibs for only half your bank account!" Summary: Go for an Intuos 3, 4 or 5 if you're seriously going to be using one of these a lot, it'll be worth it. As for learning how to draw graphically, which is something very new to me, I find watching YT videos of those that have clearly mastered the art (no pun intended) such as "cgsbgs" and "Mike Nash" very helpful.

you take this far, far to seriously. Wat.

I must say that as a person that has never really bothered watching PKing or staking videos before, I've finally found someone that I enjoy watching in 999. It's the fact that everyone else edits out 99% of the fights that makes them boring to me, how can I get a feel for what a fight is like if I only see one hit from it? I'm sorry to say it, but I have to disagree with you, Assume; speeding it up would deny me of realism and so - to an extent - would pratting around with what we can/can't see. I'd like to know just what clicks, mouse movements etc everyone does while making these videos, that they often feel it's so important to snip out. Hopefully I'll be able to unspam with a nice drop from corp, in 68 solo kills so far I've had: 3 elixirs, a spirit shield, 3 regen bracelets and 6 onyx bolts. No sigil.

I rather enjoy turning my music up to as high-a-volume-as-possible and then walking about an inch behind the furthest back of the group of secondary school kids. Either they get completely freaked out and start shuffling around or pushing those ahead of them, or they turn around to say something but stop as I silently walk straight into/around/over/under/quantum-tunnel-through them. On a side note, I find the fact that I walk to the pace of the music I listen to both hilarious and annoying-as-Hell; for example if a fast paced solo arrives just as I get stuck at a set of traffic lights, I will *have* to pace in figure eights, making anyone around me think I'm a loon - maybe they're onto something. Other than that, I think the most annoying thing is the misuse of words such as "then" and "than", (I find most Americans and Scandinavians - mostly the latter - use "then" for everything, without even considering that "than" might be more appropriate) Of and have also cause issues. The only pair of words I can't complain about is affect/effect as I haven't the foggiest how they're used correctly half the time - something I was never seemingly taught, just expected to know. One finds oneself having to try to avoid a situation where one has to use either of the words at all. Also, very quickly: people standing outside things you want to enter and not making it clear whether they're using it or just standing there for the sake of the gentle breeze playing with their hair at that particular location. Prime examples being banks, counters in shops and the Corporeal Beast's room. [note: no gentle breezes are to be expected two whole caverns into a large mid-wilderness cave system] In general, I'm an angry person. Avoid me at all reasonable-but-not-bank-breaking costs.

I think the main problem with the Mid-Level article is that it brings up little-to-no points that can possibly be discussed directly, meaning we'll simply argue about whether content is "fun" or not. I have to agree with the aforementioned fact that all us "high levels" have been there, done that... a point used in the article to try to suggest we must empathise with these people. However, the game still has precisely the same things it did when we were "younger" plus more; surely a profit can be seen here, to have fallen upon these newer players. The largest problem has to be, as far as I can tell, that they are indeed seeing the high level content as something they should be able to acquire, or something that should seem within reach. Why should a player with only <76 mining be able to do ROTM? One has to grind a little before they can step into perhaps the most fun quest the game has to offer; it's a grandmaster quest, not a Grandmedium-leveled-player quest. As for the idea of mid-leveled bosses, why not introduce untradable drops? That way the higher levels, unless lured by new aesthetically pleasing items, would have very little reason to go there. I personally fail to see the difference between playing Runescape as a high level player and playing at a lower one. I'd still enjoy it due to liking the game. Yes, i accept that nostalgia perhaps makes my mid-leveled years seem more thrilling than they actually were, but atleast there were things to explore that were completely new to me; "without all of your knowledge of the game's intricacies" Surely this is a source of great excitement which urges one to play the game more? The same reason goes for not using guides for quests, or running along on the day of a new dungeon's opening to have a gander, rather than waiting for a wiki or a fellow tifer to write a guide. Had we always known everything about the game - including how many things there were that were out of our grasp - would we all be here now? I doubt it. The only sound advice I could give is that if you're feeling you're left out, forgotten or simply "used" for your subscription money, and that it's due to being lower leveled than others, I can assure you the feeling doesn't go away. Being level 130 is hardly different to being level 70, you're still looking at people with red names and cursing them under your breath. I'm 137 atm, I often look at a 138 and think "Damn you and your different digit" But then I realise that I'm lagging behind because I had lots of fun as a level ~90 killing kurasks for no apparent reason, or running around Musa Point trying out different weapons on scorpions.

After what I guesstimate has been 2k+ kills, I reached 90 shards and was feeling rather low when... :thumbsup: (The time-gap between them was me banking the steadfast as a safety precaution)

I have very little experience of what you may call "modern Dungeoneering" having not been back to Daemonheim for any reasonable length of time since getting 100 4 months after the skill was released. However, I don't see how 117 can still be seen as a 90 minute floor world seeing as I keyed the cape solely on that world and probably averaged at half that floor time. Logic would surely dictate that the public would have slowly improved, on average, with time as more guides, gossip and general knowledge came to light; I feel the biggest problem with Dungeoneering worlds - and this goes for the 3BO world, too - is the attitude of the players deemed worthy of a clan. Everyone with the mindset that W117 should be avoided is the largest cause of the world's terrible reputation. I'm not saying that floor times are based solely on the keyer, or the attitudes of the players, but a large contribution to the success of a community like W117's dungeoneers is that people go in with an open mind and the ability to communicate well their personal aims or feelings. I'm constantly bombarded with requests to key for people and as I've said I haven't dg'd for a stupid length of time - is this because I have god-tier keying capabilities? No, it's simply because these people have heard that I spent the time on a world dubbed terrible for Dungeoneering and still got good exp rates in respect to the average of that time. Dungeoneering has moved on a lot since I left it, and I'd be clueless as to how to key a fast floor in today's higher level society, but I know that I would swiftly learn and regain my joy of keying. All the skill needs is a more accepting, less reserved judgement of the people that are all there for the same thing - experience. Now, wall of text about crappy ideologies aside, Dungeoneering is and always will be fundamental to the success of an account, in my opinion. I know many people hate it and that it becomes a grind like every other skill after a while, particularly if you're not part of a close-knit clan. The average Runescape troll player has no hope of doing well at the skill though, unless someone generous decides to hold their hand throughout the morbid affair. I personally stopped after getting my now-deceased untrimmed cape (Damn you [insert witty play on the word Jagex here] and your infernal cape-in-the-bank-trimming-talons) due to having more interest in the rest of the game, I'll go back one day but that will no doubt be long after Glacors stop being so fun to kill. tl;dr The problem is the community but a few individuals can make a large difference. Sanafari is a butthurt keyer that lost his untrimmed cape and is now sulking. P.S. I just realised I need to remove Dungeoneering from my signature. Sadface.

He was almost certainly talking about the troll, lol. I feel trolled by the pity you make me feel.

Poe rhymes door with door, that was taken into account when this was created. I realized that just after I posted it, so yeah. So, can I safely assume it was you who messed up the map? No, but I like Poe and have every suspicion that this troll was intelligent enough to put such thought into it. Edit: Phew, that was a close one. :ohnoes:

Poe rhymes door with door, that was taken into account when this was created.

And the troll, never moving, still is grooving, still is grooving On the fetid map of posters on the Google maps of yore. The posters' minds show all the seething of an angry man who's leaving, Yet this map will never become just a wholly trivial bore. Until the legitimate posters see it and their minds begin to bore. Upon which they post nevermore. Cultured troll is cultured.

Think I'll go to the LRC coal when I wish to mine again, unless I feel like getting more varieties of pickaxes gilded.
