Is it me or is Jagex fine with a messed economy...
Welcome to the MMORPG genre of games. In real life Grand Exchange would be illegal, as it is a cartel that sets prices.

Looking at people buying their XP sorta makes me wanna cry..
It is a fact that DIYers get less experience and money in the same amount of time than non-DIYers. Whether it is fun or not is your own opinion.

DIY costs as much as buying the items. You could just sell the items and use them for PVP. By using DIYed items for training secondary skills you are reducing their value and therefore losing money. It is a pure illusion that DIY doesn't cost anything.

Dragonkin: After the Rise of Lucien
West: Priffdinas East: Castle Drakan North: Penguin Iceberg South: Ape Atoll Center: Sea Slugs Northwest: Lunar Isle (some Fremenniks found the Stone of Jas there) Northeast: Castle ruins with Dragonkin symbol (Stone of Jas + compass rose) Southeast: Sophanem (we saw the first Dragonkin cutscene there) Southwest: Unknown (possibly Arposandra) Maybe the elves, penguins, vampyres, monkeys, gnomes and slugs are allied with dragonkins. Penguins, gnomes, monkeys and slugs have plans about destroying humans. The evil elves have claimed to King Lathas that they are going to summon the "Dark Lord". Lauf is eye and the Stone of Jas is also called "eye of Saradomin" and "fist of Guthix". Maybe laufata means the Stone of Jas. Are the Dragonkins Glough's masters? Glouphrie could be Glough's master, but that would be only one master, not "masters".

Defence Apparently is Useless.
Strength is countered by hitpoints.

The Decline of a Runescape Respect
Older players should help newbies because the newbies are too lazy to read the manual or fansite guides? You're assuming newbies know there is a manual or even fansites, and I'm pretty sure the tut island was no-where near as helpful as it is now. If they don't know there is a manual, they must be blind. Above the "Click here to play" and "Create a free account" links there is a menu bar: Home - Play now - Account - Game Guide - Community - Help - Log in. For fansites, Google exists.

PK is completely biased...
Do you realise that you need to double the casting time to hit 62 with magic? Double casting time, double damage = comboing makes no difference. Same damage per minute as with non-comboing. Remember to count all the delays, also the delay after the spell. You aren't going to knock anyone out with slow 60. You would need to do it (30+30) in the speed of DDS special. DDS special takes one round, while a magic combo takes two rounds. Please, you haven't tried to magic combo. It takes two rounds but the damage splats SHOW UP AS ONE ROUND. Good luck trying to eat through that. I have tried comboes. Looks don't matter, only damage per time matters. Hit-eat-hit-eat or eat-hit-hit-eat. What's the difference? Remember that you can't KO anyone with 60 damage in 2 rounds unless you PJ or your character is a low level pure mage.

I just got permabanned...
http://www.consumerdirect.gov.uk/contact You should remember that terminating a paid service without a proper and proven reason and not refunding the payment is illegal according to UK laws, regardless of any contract terms. See Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 and Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unfair_Ter ... tions_1999 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unfair_Con ... s_Act_1977

Yew logs - 500gp each?
Bloods were like 3k each in RS classic when godspells were released.

In my opinion people shouldn't even ask about other people's levels. Use the highscores.

Mining Sucks (round 2)
The easiest way of getting adamantite bars isn't mining adamantite ore and coal and smelting them, but killing aviansies. Mithril ore comes from cockroaches. This is another problem in mining - the items gathered with the skill aren't unique to the skill.
-
PK is completely biased...
Meleers and rangers have the ability of 1-hitting, so they don't need to freeze. The max damage of magic (32) is nowhere near 1-hitting, but more like 40-hitting (the enemy's food must be wasted before you can get a kill with magic). The freezing ability of mages don't really mean much even to a meleer, since there is immunity time after the freezing effect wears off. During that time you can 1-hit the mage (mages don't have much melee defence).

No, its not easy
I also think it is best to fish and cook monks and that's what I do, but that's not the fastest way to get your fishing and cooking levels up. The difference is that the power grinder will end up with less cash than the casual player, but will achieve his goals faster. From that point on, it's mainly a matter of opinion and how you like to play the game. The powergrinder can use the time he saved for the most efficient way of making money. Most likely the powergrinder will get more XP and more money in the same amount of time than a self-sufficient player. The most efficient way of training cooking is sharks, but it is not efficient for making money and training fishing.

G.E should the caps be changed?
The GE is already enough communistic/socialistic. No more limits should be added. Even the current limits are enough to kill the market of some items, such as harpoons (for ibis) and raw bird meat (for spirit terrorbird).

How do *YOU* make money?
Aviansies and red chinchompas. But in SovietScape money makes YOU!

Training smithing to 69
According to your sig, you have 77 ranged. That's enough to kill aviansies at god wars dungeon. Sell or alch the drops (depending on the dropped item), buy gold and smelt them into bars, having the goldsmithing gauntlets equipped.

"Downloadable" RS?
It already exists. It is called "signed applet". It is the default option of loading RS. It will install 91,5 megabytes of data to C:\.jagex_cache_32\Runescape. The previously used installation path was %windir%\.file_store_32.

Is magic too weak??
Dragonhide armour pieces are defence items. Not ranged. Even though dragonhide armour gives offensive ranged bonus, you must use a ranged weapon to use the bonus. You're not able to inflict ranged damage just with the armour. To be a hybrid, you must use ATTACKS from at least two different combat styles. Unless you consider a character with armour and a melee weapon to be a hybrid of melee and defence.

Double Trade?
RWT is not a problem if throw away accounts and stolen credit cards aren't used. Throw away accounts are low level and have smaller limits, which makes them useless for real world trading. So what if high level accounts RWT? High level accounts are rarer than level 3s, so it's easier to banhammer high level RWTers. An account paid with a stolen credit card will not survive for long time enough to become high level.

11th June 2009 - Macro-detection systems update
For people who think Jagex can ban member accounts for any reason without refunding the payment because you have agreed to the terms and conditions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unfair_Ter ... tions_1999 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unfair_Con ... s_Act_1977 Any member who thinks he has been banned for no reason should contact the consumer protection authorities or police. Manufacturer's guarantee is required by the laws and it cannot be excluded by terms and conditions.

Are you self suffcient?
Self sufficiency = inefficiency = more grinding = no fun. What's the point of doing something that makes 50k/hour if you have the ability to make 500k/hour and buy 10x amount of the 50k/h items in the same amount of time?

11th June 2009 - Macro-detection systems update
There is no proof that the news are not just empty words. It is simply impossible to detect all cheats without false positives. Either lots of accounts are going to be banned for no reason or lots of cheats will be undetected. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda
