That's how the economy should work, but that's not how it actually works. PvM has been the only way to "legitimately" earn money ever since GWD was released. The only variety is picking which monster you want to kill for 100 hours to pay for better gear that'll let you kill monsters quicker for the next 100 hours to pay for the next piece of shiny new equipment that's just out of your reach. I predict that if for whatever reason GWD was reintroduced to 07scape, a few months down the road players would find something new to complain about. "I've already got every hilt and full armadyl and bandos! I'm bored of GWD! It's too crowded/competitive! Reintroduce corp! I need you to give me something to work towards! I need something new to show how much better I am than everyone!" And so they keep reintroducing content which eventually gets boring because players can't appreciate 07scape for what it is: something that shouldn't ever have major content updates.

It's irrelevant why the prices are so high. All that matters is that they were high. It's not even the bosses that blew nats out of the water. Aviansies were 1m/hr with shitty stats since they basically had a 100% addy bar drop. Easy to farm? In 2007? You kidding? We don't have Curses, summoning, chaotics, claws, overloads. We have whips and Barrows. Unless you're 10 manning it, GWD is far from "easy to farm" in 2007 servers. And right now there's almost NO REASON to kill ANY BOSS other than DK(rex) The GWD was a great update for PvM, it was the drops from GWD that started making it easy to do. In 07? It's there now? No it hasn't always (I haven't logged in today) I started GWD w/ 45 def and 80ish range. It was easy as [bleep] to kill Kree for 30M hilt splits. Did it w/o summoning too.

That's your problem; not my problem, not Jagex's problem. Runescape's fun lies in the journey, not the destination. If you want extra grind time go for 99 all or make a new account or something. It's your responsibility to set up goals and incentives for yourself. Rich high tier players still have the option to use barrows armor instead of rune. The biggest flaw of the 07scape era of PK'ing was that Jagex had gone crazy w/ the str-boosting untradable armors. I ultimately quit PK'ing because everybody's gear consisted of: Neitz or penance helm (untradable) Str ammy (worthless) Fighter torso (untradable) Rune legs (worthless) DDS (worthless) Whip/scimmy (protected) Climbers (worthless) Barrows gloves (untradable) Fire cape (untradable) Recoil ring (destroyed/worthless) Add in the fact that if you're going to be maging, they quit bringing d'hides and msbs and would just run/tele and call you a "farcaster," while you waste more and more money on expensive barrages. AGS are in the same boat as claws, except claws can be nullified by any PK'er with half a brain (i.e. uses phoenix necklaces). Edgeville's a pretty bad place to PK. It's got the most unskilled cowards of any region in the wilderness. You forgot to include void, dark bow, ancients, etc. There were plenty of ways to PK in 07. It's just that the majority chose to PK with the "occam's razor" build which sucked for people like me who fought expensively. To be clear, I'm not necessarily against the release of AGS; I'm against the release of GWD. If they could put the AGS in clue scrolls or something that'd be cool. In other words, don't make incredibly over-priced/useful items easy to farm. Like I said, GWD was like the Pest Control of 2007-2008 except for moneymaking instead of combat XP. Why make money in any other way when GWD completely outclasses all of its alternatives. Why grind to 91 rc/85 slayer when you can make more money by killing weak bosses w/ your low lvl friends in welfare gear? I mean hell, farming aviansies was 1M/hour; a massive increase from the previous method of nat rc'ing at ~300k/hr.

100M hilt drops put the final nails in the skilling-for-profit coffin which 99 capes created. Why RC nats for 300k/hr when you and a few friends can get 25M splits without much effort It also marked the beginning of the end for PvP RS and the beginning of PvM RS.

I'd probably quit playing if GWD was reintroduced. Don't get me wrong, I had a lot of fun at GWD when it was released. But I hate the long-term effects it had on the game.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Being sexually attracted to a woman, yet refusing to have sex with her because she doesn't fit your mould of the "perfect girl" or "girlfriend-material"

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Why is it expected of women to find wit hot, but not of men? It's possible to be less sexually attracted to a girl because she's stone cold dumb. If youre not sexually attracted, then dont feel obligated to try banging her

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Thats a good point. Hell I had a girl on my lap the other night and I basically friendzoned her because I didnt feel anything for her-- both emotionally and physically. BUT. keyword there is physically. I dont expect anyone to feel an emotional connection w/ girls within a few encounters w them. Thats irrelevant. If theres no physical connection then she's not worth your [sexual] time. So in other words, if youre not horny for her then dont worry about it. But if you wanna bang her (whether or not you "feel" a connection) then bang her! The connection often will come later anyway. And if not, then she's just an FB. And if she's not cool w that, then it's up to her to go find someone else. In other words, if she was hot but you didnt feel attracted to her for w/e reason, thats cool. But if you were attracted to her then YOU [bleep]ED UP!!! :P But good job on not banging w/o a condom :P Much more important!

Monkey Madness - Defense xp unavoidable?
gotta save the monkey in RFD for ape tele, which requires you to get defense xp. 1 def pures can only get mith gloves. rune pures can get barrows gloves, though :D

Voted yes for all the "conveniences" except for the bank booths because I'm an oddball like that. Even though I personally would like to see grimy herbs, I voted no because I know a lot of guys out there really love unids. Voted yes for the f2p thing so certain items become useful again (lobbies, swordfish, addy arrows, amulets of magic/power, etc). I'm almost positive that playing in Low Detail mode removed roofs. You couldn't toggle that in-game obviously, you had to choose before you selected worlds. Either way, you could play w/o roofs in 07

RC Question
Minds sell for up to 25ea. Easier to just buy them from shops and sell for profit if that's what you're after. For RC XP it's better to just rc airs until better options become available.

High Tier Item Access
If you don't want to lose your valuables, just bring inexpensive gear + 4 valuables and/or have a trusted friend accompany you to grab your stuff if you die. It'd also change the way bosses were designed if Jagex knew that death was a real consequence rather than a mild inconvenience.
