I think the introduction of Revenants has made the "threat" aspect of being in the Wilderness laughable. You freeze for a few seconds at most and they run slower than run speed so you're always going to get away. Sure they're annoying with their insta-heal but it's nothing like getting chased by a decent PKer.

those good people quit recently like the rest of us -.- Hey sib. Go to hell. This game is better than ever and you're just bitter. Well said. A direct comparison of RS 7 years ago to what it is today can only lead one to the conclusion that RS has always - and will continue - to make vast improvements. Everytime something new is released that changes gameplay(however slightly), a vocal but relatively small contingent of the gameplaying population hail the end of RuneScape. The remaining million players continue playing, confident in Jagex's ability to keep their eye on the ball. RuneScape is a work in progress, thus is the nature of the beasts known as MMORPGs. Things are changed, reworked and then changed again. Believe me when I say that RuneScape has been extremely shrewd with their chosen updates and revamps compared to some other games I've played. They also listen to the gaming populace, as shown with their planned PvP servers and various other incidences in the past. RS = win.

I do not miss certs. I do not miss certs at all. LOL, remember when they brought in certs but you STILL had to spend hours changing your stuff into certs to sell it anyway? Utterly pointless!

haha laughed when i saw this, 'good grammar is very important when writing a guide'. possibly the most pointless pet peeve ive seen. good grammar is useless in a guide, its about the content and clarity you muppet. go back to your perfect spelling and indocrinated school children. oh and btw, kewl and cuz are words, u is a letter. great guide i caught swamp lizards and orange/red sallys on my way to red chins. red chins are pretty slow from 63 but its only 1.3k red chins to 70 (i think) Eh, I have to agree that good gammer is in fact key to writing a comprehensive guide. When I say comprehensive, I don't mean use words like onomonopeia, but at least fix the spelling and the grammer. Seriously, it makes the guide much more understandable, and the general image is bossted :thumbup: Content isn't the only thing that matters. Also, about the content. This guide is horribly unupdated (obviously) and the facts and opinions it gives are flat out wrong. I've always found good grammar to be important but in the case of player-made guides that are made (for the most part) to aid other players and for no personal gain, I have to laugh at the "omg good guide but learn some grammer and colour this and do that and ur guide b good okay?22?" brigade. I've never played a game where the forum community is so far up their own [wagon]. "Oh look, someone's trying to teach me something, how dare he?!" I'm not pointing at anyone in particular here but all those who feel the need to stamp their elite guide-writing authority on those who go out of their way to enliven the game for others.

Great guide! Thanks :)

I started playing way back when PKing was everywhere and players had the option to be a PK/NPK (non-player killer). Those without PK switched on were safe from attack and would go about their daily business safe from the massive territory wars erupting around Runescape. IIRC Lumby was a safe haven and was flooded with lower level players running from evil PKing gank groups and the like. One of my fondest memories of the period was seeing Paul Gowers character, 'Paul' walking around with the fabled and much sought after Runite Medium Helm. You think you look good now? You should have seem him in RS classic graphics, adam chain and legs, adam long and runite med. My heart almost burst! Characters like Who Da Best would terrorise RuneScape with his evil minions whilst Phillip and co would hold the torch for the good guys. The very first person to ever mine a Mithril ore was a patron of tip.it (Demonic? I may be mistaken, I'm 23 now and I was still in school when this happened) and everyone clambered to have a look. RS today is but a shade of those days IMO, back then there were very few servers (2 when I started as far as I can remember) and for a good while everyone was on an even keel and loving it. Anyone remember the Runite weapons monopoly of Bluerose13x and all the clever clones of her used to scam?

Since its inception I have become a massive patron of the RuneCrafting minigame, The Great Orb Project. I love free tokens but I've come to appreciate the more competitive aspects of the game. I don't really find anything as exciting in RS as a 4 a piece match with worthy opponents and a decent team and so to that end I'd like to set up a few competitive matches with 2vs2 and perhaps 3vs3. Anyone who feels the call of the orbs as strongly as I do and feels they have enough leet skills out there? :D This will most definately NOT be 50/50 so those who can't take losing need not join. Teams will be random (unless otherwise specified) and, I'd like to add once more... NOT 50/50. My ingame name is i j00 m0m (I was 15 when I made it, sue me! :P) so gimme a PM or post ingame if you're interested! Thanks :D
