Now who's the one spreading rumors? (Hypocrite much?) Even if this was just a troll post, (and a poorly executed one at that, no style at all) stuff like this actually starts rumors and brings about controversy nonetheless. I did however text him a couple hours ago, and he hasn't responded yet so I have no 100% confirmation as to whether he quit or not. He's probably just sleeping or something. It's fine to speculate if he quit due to a lack of xp gained today (of which I saw neither on runetracker nor runetrack) but something like waz joe's post does not contribute to the discussion in any way, shape, or form. Also I probably won't be able to timely reply to any responses as I'm at college orientation right now.

Dont think fame is the reason the majority quit.....more like rs in general isnt worth the effort and more stuff can get done without playing rs alot. this, if Suomi cared more about fame than his goal then he wouldn't have started asking for donations in the first place as it inevitably would bring in haters for obvious reasons. I can only see Suomi quitting if he wishes to be more productive in other things like viv said such as cycling swimming skiing etc

Zarfot/Paperbag/Allar/Simon/Dapledo/Drumgun and first half are inactive

OT: Kngkyle is a mere 5M xp away from passing Tg and entering the top 15.

And the skill would be the ability to keep that motivation going throughout the journey to 5B - something that not everyone can do as you say. That's how I see it at least, we can each have our own opinions right? :P Edit: I totally understand what you're saying... I just think that the ability to keep going without giving up is just a different type of skill as opposed to something along the lines of keying skill, a bit how there are different types of intelligence such as "book smart" or "people smart."

Not burning out and finding the motivation to not quit is a skill imo lol

I just queried him on IRC and asked him about his future plans. I won't post all of the conversation just to keep a few of his secrets, but this is what I got out of him. (00:23:30) <Mky> so what's next? (00:23:53) <*****> Probably 100m pray, and then maxing combat via slayer (00:24:00) <Mky> sounds boring, haha (00:24:18) <*****> I'm watching season 1 of Breaking Bad while doing pray, so it isn't really boring lol :) (00:24:24) <Mky> nice :) (00:24:37) <Mky> any super secret plans for this year? (00:24:59) <*****> You'll see :) ***** = his IRC nickname, hiding it so nobody stalks him. Don't know what that means, but damn, he seems motivated. :shock: Nice to know, sounds like he has a plan for tearing up the front page I think when Suomi says he's a perfectionist he means it literally

He said after he is done using X number of bones. I don't think he wants to tell anyone what his plans are, if he even has any. Fair enough, was slightly hoping for 200M as that plus maxing Fletch and Cook would easily put him at over 2B xp

Simon @ 15.2M Prayer now... any idea when he's going to stop?

What? http://services.runescape.com/m=adventurers-log/c=EZ9BW8TEIRo/display_player_profile.ws?searchName=simon

So apparently Simon's at 14.4M Prayer now, lol any idea when he'll stop?

Undeadbovine, you've only joined since people started to talk about Simon. You know him, we get it. Let them talk and stop acting as the know-it-all when it comes to Simon. Got to love these people who cry for attention and when a well known player is talked about, has to in some way clarify that they know them. L Let him explain himself at least before flaming him lol

Then how does it look now?

If he maxes buyables and starts cannoning cave crawlers He could certainly be a contender. As of now he is far far behind. 200m ranged already That won't make too horrible of a difference, for example Elias will reach about 800M virtual Range xp for maxed melees

This, based on his bank pic posted a while back he definitely has the funds to max most if not all buyables. He could be a serious contender if he wanted to, but I'm not sure as to what his goals are.

Dat cook/fletch?

Lol Simon's at 86 Prayer already, anyone happen to know his plans for maxing melee? (I'm assuming Slayer)

Elias just hit 100M Slayer, huge gratz to him!

dagganoths? they were like always annoying lol but i dunno if its bots havent had dagganoths in awhile but thats a task that doesnt have that much to offer besides exp. blackdemons have the benifit of charms/effigies so its not worth cancelin those and better to find alternate ways like resource. havent heard people complaining bout dagga but none of my friends are really slaying that much so w/e Personally I find it fun powerslaying 230 daggs in 10 mins lol, I use lighthouse not ct though

lmao called it

Inb4 99 prayer

yessir

Also @Masaca it's a well known fact that Drumgun makes his cash with PvM and that Tezz does not have enough money to rush buyables :P

this

^ Epic lol, going to be nice seeing him on top page again, as well as having Simon on there too for the first time
