Basically its when the conversation devolves into mixed up words and angry grunting, generally limited to barbarians and dwarves :D On a more serious note waheera, If you have the power to fix something that you care about you have two options, work to fix it or stop caring. Talk to mirror or Racheya about becoming an editor, I know I'd be glad to have you.

....You guys are really good at missing the point. See if you actually read the articles, you would realize that the lack of interesting community events and activities is the issue being discussed. L2notpassjudgementb4youread

Which is why I believe the article calls for jagex to put their resources to areas that most of us want and will appreciate and/or find useful, not Q&A sessions that "didn't have a whole lot of interesting answers"

Extra Revenant Tip
Thats actually really useful lol, I hadn't thought of that. I also found that even if a rev teleblocks you, you can still use the Abyss mage to teleport to (relative) saftey

Ok, we get it, there are about 5 of you regulars who don't "waste their time" reading our fictional pieces. There is no need to remind us about it every week we post one. :wall: I'm pretty sure there's a lot more than 5 people who skip the fictionals. Don't kid yourselves now ;) ... So I took some license on the number :roll: My point is, every time someone writes a fictional piece; there is a small minority who decides to tell them their efforts aren't even worth the time of day. If you don't read our fictionals, imagine how us fictional writers feel about reading your opinions.

Its bizarre, frankly, that people cheat and devalue the game. Way to be a bystander.

Ok, autogrouping sucks. We established this last week, can we move on now? <_<

It entirely depends on the token cost if this will even be used

Support from Emerson on this one. I'll definitely try to make an appearance.

Jagex, to put it simply, makes way too much money to want to close runescape anytime in the near future. The only circumstances under which I can see them making that decision are either java goes under, the internet stops being used (lol), or over a gradual amount of time their member base reaches a critical threshold where they no longer break even... which would have to be pretty low seeing as they don't have that many developers and server space can't cost all that much.

I must say, I agree with Bart; although my beef with grouping is mainly social. I'm not a fan of group dungeoneering for three reasons: 1) I'll do it on my own time. I have a hellish schedual and I don't want to have to worry about who gets on and when to find a leet group of dungeon delvers. Nor do I wish to be bound by their codes/requirements 2) communication is a big issue with lag, and chat restrictions (ie length/speed of text) I find that actively and effectively communicating with someone without voip is almost impossible. The only people I ever dungeon with would be my roommate or a friend I cam skype with. 3) trust/friendship I don't like people. Period. Having random people go dungeoneering with me generally just bothers me because, for the most part, they either have different methods and criticise me for it, or are unfamiliar with how to dungeon. I also move at my own pace and don't want someone trying to rush me or hold me back. Also, people leaving is a big deal and if it's my friends i'll be able to understand why and how soon they'll get back (see point two)

Seeing as it was a dry humor comedy piece, that was its intent so :thumbsup: ....but wait, Bladewing forced you to read it?

Tip.It Times - 31st October 2010
Ah, well then to that end we always (as far as I know) put our own writers in front of guest ones. Sorry for the... inconvenience of having to scroll past and ignore my article. I would ask you to read it, but I can already tell thats a lost cause.

With the way you so eloquently word it, I'm finding it rather difficult to take offense.

That attitude is exactly what's wrong with the RS community in general these days. Everyone is so busy looking out for themselves that any sense of teamwork or camaraderie is lost, and that's why DG teams generally suck. I'm sorry, this is the internet. I'm pretty sure honour, camaraderie, and brotherly love don't exist. Even if they do, they're restricted to the few players that one would be in contact with often and want to help. Even then, there is a limit to wanting to help people, and sacrificing a few hours/days worth of prestige so you can show a random person the ropes on floor 1 certainly crosses it.

The botting still persists
As far as I'm aware I've never seen a Lv 2 "man" talking to anyone either

The botting still persists
lolwut? how are they alive? all they do is run a damn line and do whatever they are programmed to do Actually he has a point lol. From a realism standpoint it could be counted as an inclusion of the thousands of "citizens" of the various provinces that we never hear of, doing their menial tasks (like all the miners, farmers, and lumberjacks). Thats a rather interesting way of putting it tbh.... If you can put aside the fact that they devalue both the game and the community that is :rolleyes:

Black Dragons (ranged vs melee)
Keep in mind that melée = expensive and requires active attention. I almost always range my black dragons simply because it requires no potions and in the evil chicken lair safespots it's practically afkable

I believe Ts's point is that if it werent for the bots it would be.... actually it would probably be very much so.

The hair fighting game!
I choose Xiahou Dun, more famously seen in Koei's Dynasty Warrior's series (in DW6 he looks like [lettuce] though <_< ) But yeah.... The ability to get shot in the eye by an arrow, plucking it out while crying "The blood of my mother and the essence of my father must not be wasted!", eating the eye, then charging down your attacker and killing him with a lance to the face bespeaks total badassery. EDIT: RIGHT! the actual attack. Dun summons forth his lord's army of one million and marches to war, leading the vanguard. With his long dao in hand, he valiantly cuts down all in his path.

Did dungeoneering monsters get tougher?
The NPC's in Daemonheim are FAR harder than those on the outside for one reason: The NPC's get equipment bonuses that are scaled to their levels, thus making a 138 warrior have the equivilant of full primal gear for bonuses on top of a att/str/def/hp (without prayer or summoning) that gives them 138. To me that pretty much means one tough customer that in order to deal with; you have to bring food and booster prayers along with a possible class ring bonus into play.

Your View on the American Revolution?
As a British person, let me say: ?? In school I learned nothing at all about the American revolution. If you are implying that in the UK we spend a lot of time wishing that we still owned America, then you're mistaken :) It just isn't a big part of the 2500 years of British history we learned about. Obviously it's important to America, and it's right that you should learn about it in depth, but it is not true that British people discuss it in class and come to a pro-colonial view (we don't discuss it at all). I would expect that British people know almost nothing about it. [/hide] Vocal British people who use the internet are (generally) very strongly in opposition of the American revolution (generally speaking) and often (generally) cause long debates about it (sometimes), which has happened numerous times that I remember on this forum. *disclaimer: I am not implying all British TIFers do this. These are my views exactly. I don't mean to offend but that is the general trait, seeing as you don't share them: dusqi you have earned my respect
