Are Jade Merchants rare or am I just unlucky? Took me 20% into the bowl to get my first Jade Merchant. :\

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Depends on how the divorce was handled. If the kids grow up living with the mother, but the mother is a psycho, while Kaida's a very loving and responsible father, then they will "side with" Kaida as they age. Bad idea. Long distance exclusive relationships aren't smart. Also a bad idea. Living with your significant other severely damages the relationship's lifespan. He clearly doesn't make you happy (at least consistently in the long-term). Dump his ass and move on with your life ASAP! You don't have to tell her anything, it's none of her business. If she asks, then yes, just say you're no longer happy in the relationship and then LEAVE. If she gets pissed off, that's her problem. You can't afford to worry about other people's problems when your own problems are so severe. Don't get a pet until you have enough time and money to take care of one. You don't need a significant other to fulfill your companionship needs. Just go out and make friends. Try meetup.com or something. Hell, even watching TV in the background while you work is enough to trick your brain into thinking that you're not alone. Keep in mind, though, that the lower your self-esteem is, the harder it will be for you to make strong meaningful friendships (or succeed in any other area of life, for that matter). Go listen to a bunch of self-help audiobooks on Youtube and invest in yourself. Anything by Brian Tracy and Kyle Cease is a good start. I've heard good things about Tony Robbins too. Be sure to take notes on that kind of stuff and review it very frequently until it becomes an automatic subconscious part of you. This forum also has a lot of good food for thought. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDMwp9SHRLw

The limit of 3 random rewards seems unnecessary now that the rewards you get are completely random. They should remove the limit and instead place a daily limit of 3 uses of each per day or something.

This is why there are so many people wishing for Nex armor to drop. Everyone wants things quickly and easily. These same people were wishing bandos armor would drop, and barrows and whips before that. Comparing apples to oranges. Nex literally takes (or took, pre-EOC; not sure what current prices are) 10x the amount of time/effort to obtain than barrows and whips did back in the day. Not to mention the fact that low lvls could complete barrows, just with less efficiency.

Quick question: is it feasible to duo the KK?

I quit watching RS videos when people started adding their own cheesy "special effects" which detracted from the footage itself. If you have to add special effects to your video to make it watchable, then it's probably a pretty dull video in the first place.

Just watched the Woox KK vid. I felt like I was supposed to be tripping on acid while watching it.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Did you consider that perhaps there are other reasons for that? Weakened immune response, less awareness of safe sex practices, more likely to self-report/symptoms more recognisable to HCPs, higher risk of sexual abuse vs elderly? Since you didn't leave a link to whatever told you this, none of us can very well check for ourselves, can we? Just Google it dude lol I don't think I ever said otherwise.

200M in all Skills
Neither was Layyr smashing out 157M runecrafting, and subsequently Jagex having named the NPC Larriar. This isn't an industry were the health of the player is a huge priority, and when there are attempts to curb game use. In fact, it is entirely beneficial for the game company to NOT have you playing in moderation. The quicker you gain a tie to the game, the harder to leave. Health of players, sure, that's a moral issue that some businesses care about in order to gain some reputation for being DECENT, but overall, if it gains them nothing, why do it. Actually if everybody played in moderation, they'd probably never get bored or run out of things to do, and therefore they'd be a paying member for a longer time.

200M in all Skills
If Jagex does acknowledge Suomi's accomplishment, they should probably say something along the lines of, "No, we won't give special recognition to any future players who achieve 200M in all skills." I'm not denying that Suomi's achievement is an incredible feat of dedication. I just don't think such an accomplishment should be encouraged for others to follow, simply because it's not healthy. It's an accomplishment that is absolutely impossible to obtain by playing in moderation, regardless of how efficient you are and how skilled you are at time-management. Again, nobody pursued 99s religiously until the release of the skillcapes. Nobody cared about the CW professional cape until it became a trimmed comp cape requirement. Hopefully there never becomes an in-game reward for 200M all skills (or even 200M in any skill).

Regarding age and sexuality-- IIRC, the elderly have the highest STD transmission rate out of any demographic. Viagra sort of reintroduced sexuality to them. @Noxx, make sure you get a prenup or a divorce will [bleep] you up

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I can almost guarantee that most men whose wives are now unattractive thought the exact same thing. "Oh my sweet little angel would never do that!" Again, this isn't something you can "screen" for. You won't know until you've already placed your bets. Not smart.

Chaotics
You're splitting accuracy from chance to hit monsters? Isn't that the very definition? Give me an example of where accuracy is capped please - I'm actually unaware of any thing of the sort. I am surprised that you are unaware of an accuracy cap... The Chance to hit any monster is 100% (or whatever the game designer have put in, 99%, 95%, but the exact value does not matter in this discussion), regardless of how high your 'accuracy' is, this is true in every single thing under the sun, you cannot get more than 100% chance to hit. While accuracy is very closely linked to chance to hit, it is not a direct conversion (if it was, it would mean that low level players cannot hit anything with bronze weapons due to their accuracy being so low). Thus there must exist a point in that calculation where the resulting chance to hit on the monster has reached the cap (whether that is the absolute cap or the game cap), and any further accuracy increases beyond this point serve absolutely no purpose. Accuracy is a great thing to have, but once you hit that cap, it becomes the most useless stat to upgrade thereafter. I am pretty sure that chance to hit bosses will not hit the cap anytime soon without using the very best gear, the rest of RS is a completely different matter. If one can reliably hit stuff without missing their targets for any length of time using a lower tier magical weapon, then I find absolutely no point in getting a degradeable upgrade that yields no actual upgrade. Magic is unique in this regard that the weapon only provides accuracy and attack speed, while the damage itself is determined by the spell alone, which has no tie to the weapon. Melee and ranged upgrades will always be upgrades because their damage is based on themselves rather than something outside, so even if accuracy is redundant, their damage is unaffected. Accuracy never becomes useless unless your opponent has exactly 0 defense(and as far as i'm aware, no monster in rs does), you just have diminishing returns. Given that the best combat xp is gained now by fighting higher level monsters, the accuracy will almost certainly help. The thing to consider here is rather that a one handed magic weapon will be faster, thus you will be able to land more auto-attacks. With slow weapons like 2h's and the chaotic staff, most of your damage will be done by abilities alone, thus it would be advised to use a slightly less accurate 1h staff and a book when your opponent either has low hp or low defense(~>80% accuracy), or both. That and as ascribed above about the damage part is why magic is quite different from melee and ranged in EoC(and, I might add, has a distinct advantage). I think the penance monsters in BA have 0 defense when using the correct attack style >_>

The period goes inside the quotation marks in that first sentence btw :P Periods and commas always go inside quotes. Colons and semicolons go outside of quotes. :thumbup:

It worked once you picked up the elemental runes on the ground. #idonteven I know. My point still stands.
