There's no harm in allowing people to collect multiple capes. If the fire cape gave you bonus damage against TzHaar monsters, making additional capes easier, then you might have a point. But that's not the case; additional capes are simply a convenience so if you lose your cape, you don't have to reobtain it before going back to whatever it was that you were doing.

They need to fix smith-x. The game basically comes to a halt while youre smithing. Cant log out, stats dont drain, etc till youve finished smithing

That was actually the first thing to pop into my mind when I read his post >_>

I think the best solution would be to make all of the untradables tradable, yet unequippable without completing the requirements to obtain them in the first place. Similar to dragon weaponry. I imagine fighter torsos, void, and fire capes would be worth a healthy amount of money. But yeah, that's the main reason why I quit PK'ing back in the day. Wasn't worth the risk. Fun fact: the reason you can't open/close the doors in Lumb castle is because people used to go to world 18 and spam close the doors there to prevent people from getting their untradables back

indubitably

I was wondering how long it would take for this thread to turn into a post count size contest. I sure have some long posts, but God Almighty do obfuscator's posts have girth!

The way equipment switching works is, you have to change attack style/spec after the weapon has "officially" been equipped. If you're weilding a dds on aggressive and click whip and accurate too fast, the game will show that accurate is selected for whip, but in reality it's still on controlled. Gotta wait for the whip to be equipped before switching styles. Lots of people don't realize this and end up getting def XP on their pures after using a DDS spec on aggressive

muggi appreciates hotness regardless of gender or post count

I predict that it'll be dead again in a week if it's deemed inefficient :P

All those activities give 1XP each lol

dont worry i still think youre beautiful <3:

I strongly disagree :P I'm not attracted to Natalie Portman w/ a shaved head at all

And a very specific thoracic area.

I've only seen black girls pull it off

Exactly

Saw a seemingly attractive girl on POF and went to her profile. Her 2nd photo was her with a shaved head >_> Caption: "Beauty comes from within, not from a head of hair." Yeah definitely. Those principles bring success to all areas of life. You should check out Brent Smith on Youtube. Lots of great thoughts on abundance, carefreeness, happiness, etc.

yes

Endgame for 07 is basically PvP. You should really try to learn how to PK, it's a lot of fun. A lot more exciting and challenging than PvM could ever hope to be. But still, CW was pretty much the endgame alternative for non-PKers. Everybody I knew, including my PK buddies, loved to go ice barraging there :D

If you're harping at people for doing that, then you're doing it for the wrong reason. Doing something such as pickpocketing dwarf traders on your phone at a class is extremely allocatively efficient because it allocates time that couldn't be expended gaining xp to a much more appropriate use. Similarly, walking around your house while pressing a button allows you to allocate time to RS that would have been spent doing housework or taking breaks. You of all people should be able to appreciate that. There's a difference between allocating more time in favor of RS by doing afk stuff and doing afk stuff out of laziness. I don't think that the casual player does rocktails because it allows them to gain more xp per day (I did rocktails for 10m xp because I could get over 500k xp/day, vs 200k or so from C2s), but rather because they're lazy. I think it's alright to gripe on people for being lazy, but I don't think any truly lazy person would be able to be dedicated enough to get a hard 200m. All you're really doing is getting mad that people produced more with less effort than you did. And that's kind of silly. Being efficient isn't the endgoal but it seems a lot of you guys worship that. Xp to me is only a measure of how much work, time, and sacrifice you've put into skilling. It's only a tool in determining that because only work, time, and sacrifice gives it any value. If you didn't have to put any of that in, there'd be no reason to respect anything you obtained. Achievements matter, not a number stored on a server somewhere. I see two possible reasons for doing post-99 xp or rank. The first is for the achievement and to have pride in having completed something you know wasn't easy. The second is to do some easy cheap method to get some fake sense of achievement and to hope people respect the number instead of the work itself. People forget to look at the bigger picture and consider the opportunity cost of focusing on RS instead of RL. If someone gets wc xp on his phone every time he goes to class, and after 4 years gets 200M wc XP and an engineering degree, that's a lot more impressive than a guy who just stayed in his room all day playing a video game "legitimately." Better to waste RS xp than RL xp :P If you're gonna be doing something "active" on RS, you really better be doing something "passive" in RL that's improving your life somehow, for example listening to educational audiobooks. Take you for an example. If you get 1B XP, yes, I consider that impressive. If you AFK'd all of it, it'd still be impressive, albeit less impressive. But if you came up to me in RL and explained that you just got 1B XP and I said, "cool, what else have you been up to?" and you said that's all you've been doing for the past couple of years, I probably wouldn't consider that something to be proud of anymore; unless of course this goal made you happy, but as is evidenced by the way you describe your time on RS, I don't think that's the case. But like I said, different people value different things in life. You're not hurting anyone with your goals (except for yourself possibly), so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and let you have your "fun" and hope that you always look back at your RS achievements as something to be proud of, and not regret.

At the end of the day, the big difference here is: you care about things like XP, rank, and making things harder than they need to be. I couldn't care less about any of that shit :P I still don't see how people AFK'ing are "hurting" you though, or why it bothers you so much >_>

That'd be funny if you were wearing a d med and granite plate

I AFK train because it's more efficient in the bigger picture-- it allows me to complete my RL goals (which are, by far, a much higher priority in my life than RS is) while completing my RS goals simultaneously. And yes, I would definitely bot if: a) the thing I was botting wasn't fun, but I considered it "necessary" to achieve an additional RS goal (e.g. quest requirements; moneymaking) b) it wasn't against the rules Basically after I graduated high school and began to actually set RL goals for myself, most of my time spent RS was as AFK as possible. Just doesn't make sense to me to focus my attention on a game when I could be focusing on RL things such as increasing my income, dating, and exercising. Ideally, the only time I'm actually "active" on RS is when I've got plenty of free time in RL, I've made progress for my long-term goals for the day, all my RL friends are busy, etc. Sadly in EOC there isn't anything fun left to do, so most of it comes from PvP in 07scape. But even then PvP isn't that fun till endgame, and I don't really have the time or the patience to train 99 range/mage for a 3rd time, so those skills will have to come along slowly and AFK. Too bad botting's against the rules, that'd save a lot of effort on my part :lol:
