Choosing a career and education
I was never an exceptionally "smart" person. Never really cared about school. For most of my life i wanted to become a Professional Athlete but as my luck would have it i was good at one of the lowest ranked sports in South Africa, Tennis. About 3 months before i found out i was moving to Qatar i discovered my talent for the 400m Sprint. My coach even said i had South African Champion/Olympic talent but i never got the chance to pursue that, because as i said i moved 3 months after that. It's been about 3 years now and i've done just about anything i thought would ever be fun. I spend 6 months doing Psychology, 6 Months doing Economics, a year doing Accounting and a year doing Law. Got bored of it all. Right now i'm getting ready to head off to Florida to start, what i hope will be, a great career. I'm going to (hopefully) get my pilot's license. My dad works for the "Royal Family's" private airline, which is owned by Qatar Airways ( World's number 1 Airline ;) ) so ii'll have a job there as soon as i get my license. All i need to do now is survive 12 months of horrifyingly hard work and i'll be able to see and travel the world for a career.

Can someone explain the whole "hipster" thing to me? It's not exactly a term often used in my social group so i really have no idea what it is, and i've been hearing(reading) it a lot lately.

Grenwall Spikes.. BXPW.. HELP!!!!
Yeah the smartest thing you can do now is wait till AFTER the weekend. About a week or two after the weekend prices should have settled down again and things will get back to the way they were.

Is this the best solo bandos gear?
Personal experience and hearsay to be honest. I've done pretty much every setup at Bandos within my budget. I'm not sure about the Def bonus of Ktop+Tass vs. KSkirt+BCP, but i'm fairly certain the former is still better.

If you're using Maul, then BCP. If you're using CLS + DFS then Karil. Only time you can get away with BCP is when you're using a Spectral.

If doing this or using a cls, a rapier for minions is extremely helpful. When you're Maul SS Flashing and Speccing with Claws it's better to use the Claws near the end of the kill. Reason i say this is because Claws are faster than the Maul (obviously) and would throw your SS pattern off making it ever so slightly harder to flash. But if you get a good rhythm going, Maul and SS Flashing is probably superior to DFS/CKS

Blood Tabs
Assuming you play 50/50 GOP you should be looking at about 1500 tokens per hour, or 33 Blood Tabs per hour. You should also get about 6k Runecrafting Exp per hour from GOP itself. You're going to need about 80 Tabs per hour, which is 2 and a half hours of GOP. This puts you at 15k RC Exp from GOP + 100k RC Exp from Blood Tiaras and Runes which is a total of 115k Exp/3 and a half hours, or ~33k Exp per hour thus making it a bad idea. If you're okay with 33k Exp per hour though, i have an alternative suggestion. With the new quest, The Branches of Darkmeyer, you recieve a Medallion which gives you a teleport to the Meyierditch Lab. If you have either a Canafis Portal in your POH or you're on Ancients and have access to the Canafis Spell (which would speed up the process by about 10 seconds) you could do the following: -Bank at Canafis. -Use the Medallion to teleport to the Lab. -Run to the Blood Altar. -Teleport back to Canafis (either by Ancients or by Tab) -Bank and repeat. The reason i say Canafis is because it does not use a charge from the Medallion offering you unlimited teleports to the lab. I timed this at more or less 33k Exp per hour doing a combination of Tiarias and Blood Runes (25 Tairas, 24 Blood Runes per trip). This way you get more or less the same exp per hour without spending time at GOP.

Onyx Ring (i)
Onyx (i) is only worth getting over Dstone (i) when your bank allows it. It's not worth it buying an 11m ring when some of your other things could use upgrading. The extra +1 is meh. Zerker (i) is best at Bandos. When wearing appropriate Solo/Duo setup you already have high enough attack bonus. Adding extra attack via the ring slot is overkill.

That might be worthwhile, not sure on the exp rates. But you're going to have to fork out a lot of money to be able to do that. It's also going to be really stupid if you do this with Blood Tiaras. last time i checked their price was insane.- Blood Tabs
Wow, that XP rate is a LOT worse than I expected. Looks like getting Blood tabs for BXP would be a waste of time. Yeah like i said i was looking into this myself. Thought it would be a great way to boost my RC level a bit over exp weekend but i realised that i'f have to put in a lot more effort (Blood Tabbing is a lot more clicking intensive than ZMI crafting) for less exp/h. Really not worth it at the end of the day.- Today...
- What are you doing, man? Just finishing up a task of 347 teaks.
It's only going to be cute until you realize how horribly inefficient it is. "Chop 200 Magic Logs", "Mine 200 Rune Ores", "Catch 200 Sharks" for example, would be horrible bad exp and money. By the time you finish it you could have gained tripple the amount of money and/or exp by doing something even slightly more efficient. Even things like Willows and Mahoganies and Yews, Mithril, Adamant, any form of Abyssal Runecrafting, Monks, Sharks, Lobsters, etc, etc, etc. are horrible compared to "modern" training methods (some of which don't even require your full attention). This will only be used by a minority who aren't capable of thinking logic. Only way to make something like this work is: a.) Offer large exp rewards to make up for time wasted doing bad tasks/assignments (relative to your level of course) b.) Offer large gp reward to make the slower exp rates a bit more worth while.- Learn the difference
I'm foreign too, but i do my best to keep my sentences as grammatically correct and spelling error free as possible. It keeps me from looking like a fool. Besides, English is the international business language and the sooner you learn to properly use it the better. As a side note, my 11 year old cousin (to whom English is also a second language) has no trouble remembering the differences between your and you're, "than and then", "where, were and we're", "they're, there and their." I see no reason why others can't.- cash out before bxp weekend?
You pretty much missed the initial rush. Things have already "crashed" as you noted. Best idea would be to put them in the G E now for a self-determined price (put them in at their normal price, or slightly above that) and see what happens by next week Monday, Tuesday at latest. If things are going to spike again, they would at least have started by then. If they don't go up again then you're either going to have to bit the bullet and put them in at a lower price or wait till a week or two after BXP Weekend until prices have settled down a bit and then put them in the G E. As for Dragon Bones. They've dropped from ~6k to ~3k over the last few months, mainly because of bots. As long as there are bots, D Bone prices will remain in its current region. So it's not really going to matter when you buy the bones. They should still be more or less the same price as they are now.- Blood Tabs
Was reading up on this myself not too long ago. Watched a vid on youtube. The guy's runs were about a minute a piece, although he was using seers to bank. Exchange seers with castle wars and you're looking at 45 seconds/trip. So more or less 80 trips/hour. 53 runes crafted/invo @ 10.5 exp each would give you 556.5 exp/ trip (45 seconds). So it should be about 44 530 exp/h assuming 45 second trips. I might be wrong though. ZMI still seems like the better option.- What makes a good tipit member?
Pretty much my thoughts. Someone who you could have a bear with and still like them afterwards. Yeah! And as long as they aren't staff. I hate those jerks. This, plus being able to respect them after a particularly vicious argument. When proven wrong, don't get [bleep]y or have a hissy fit. When proving someone else wrong, don't get cocky and arrogant about it. Those are the only two things that really matter to me.- Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
I still remember what one of my Ex's wore the first day i saw her, the first day i kissed her and the first day i told her i loved her. Oh and the day we broke up :s It's a curse to be honest. Yeah, can still remember all of that and more haha. Doesn't it bother you?- Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...

- Ideas for Double Exp Weekend
Well you don't have enough money to really get any advantage out of buyable skills. Your skills are over-all pretty low. If you want to get a quick boost to a 99, then woodcutting Ivy for 10 hours should get you a nice chunk of exp and shorten the road to 99. It's really the only thing i can see as worthwhile for you. - Nox - My Journey to 1B Exp.
