Temple trekking
Easy and med the best choice is hard because more fighting = more xp. But you have to balance their abilities agaisnt the route you take. 1-30 easy is the best bet 30-60 med 60+ hards should be easy peasy.

Dg rewards
If you truly think whip 'serves the same purpose' as a Rapier you may as well us a Bronze Scimitar tbh got the speed and the slash style so it 'serves the same purpose' But I'm sure you'd say that is stupid because whip has much better stats, which is exactly the rule that applies to whip vs Rapier. As for recharge cost Rapier is vastly cheaper in the long run to use in terms of recharge than Barrows and I'm sure you never batted an eye at that. Unless you are camping something like bandits opposed to doing slayer/bossing it is pretty much impossible to not make more than enough to repair it within the 10 hours; especially as the better stats means you kill a lot more in those 10 hours than you do would with a whip.

What happens when you use the wrong cabbage
^Exactly. It will not work. It will not let you break the quest. It's a basic case of the pipe only has an interaction that works with normal cabbages. Same way the Crystal Chest only has an interaction that works with the Crystal Key.

I'd conjecture it can be wise to do them, Rolayne more so than Smiddi, on meds until they can see ahead just because it enables you to avoid being slowed down too much by some of the more pita events like snakes and swamp boat.

Temple trekking
Not really. Hard path = more event completion xp and more hp on monsters = more damage = more xp. Should do easy to like 30/40 ish then med to 60 ish then blast the hards to 99.

20-April-2012: Mad May and Wild Weekends
Hint towards a new boss being released or just use of a word to describe how good of a month they think it'll be? Given how often Jagex has to re-edit BTS etc due to using words/phrases that can be read as a hint/clue/fact opposed to an descriptor of how good it is I'd not get any hopes up til we have bts.

What happens when you use the wrong cabbage
If you use a Draynor cabbage it won't work and simply you will be required to go and get a normal cabbage to drop in to it. It's simply based on item id, the right item has to be dropped in to progress. The wrong item won't do anything. Draynor cabbages are slightly different to all other cabbages and thus are not the right item.

What happens when you use the wrong cabbage
It'd be helpful if you said which quest and what part of the quest. There are many things in RS that require cabbages after all!

Dg rewards
Though arguably various things have shown Goliath Gloves (unarmed) and Rapier can pretty much equal or better Maul on WFS, so while maul does do well at WFS its not a massive requirement for the best kill rates.

Fork Handle
What a waste of 67760 pixels. Oh, in that case, allow me to be more literal. I never really liked these references that are supposed to make us laugh. That gif is my reaction to most of them. I mean, sure easter eggs are fun to find, but it's the way they pull out the "joke" that I don't like. If you relly on someone's else "humor" to try and be funny, you're trying too hard; basically, it's the fact that you actually have to explain the joke that kills the humor in the way. Not much different from telling a joke without the charisma to do so, and having to explain it later... Just my opinion though, I don't like having jokes explained at me, let alone have them "hidden". Easter egg references aren't aimed at being especially funny or being a joke as such. Easter eggs are aimed at putting little cultural references to things you admire in to the game just to add that little extra something where people can spot it and be like oooh I see what you did there. You're not specially meant to laugh at the fork handles itself, its a punch line removed from context anyway; your supposed to have a little smile and perhaps a small laugh if you recognise the reference. tl;dr Easter egg =/= a joke. Easter egg = a hidden reference to something else to make you smile if you recognise it. Just happens to be the case Jagex take a lot of their Easter eggs from classic British comedy. Eg herrings > tree vs grand tree. Ex-parrot. Fork handles. But there's plenty of others too Asgarnia Smith = Indiana Jones, Jeremy Clerksin is believed to be a pun of Jeremy Clarkson. That guy at rogues den (combined with the original dun) was a pun on the Crystal Maze etc.

Yeah by early am I mean the kind of am's that you generally see by staying up late. Like 4 or 5 am at the latest. The peak zone is kinda 8pm - 4am ish in GMT

Post all small corrections and spelling/grammar mistakes here!
Dg skills guide still states wolf whistle and druidic ritual as required to unlock summoning and herblore respectively. Not true since troll warzone.

^this. Any percentage based boosts use the base level, not any pre-boosted level.

Game update 19th April
You mean prior to this update right? I'm curious how it was 'stolen' wasn't there an update a good few months back now that makes it so that only the killer of the monster can see the slayer drop within DG due to the very issue of people stealing rare drops after letting someone else do the work of killing the monster.

News: Top RuneScape Geography Guru Announced!
I fail to see how it insults or demeans F2Pers that they couldn't enter the contest. It's kinda a given Jagex are going to prefer giving away free stuff to people they actually profit off of. I can certainly see the case that F2Pers should perhaps have some more contests and such, but I do not see it as an insult or demeaning that this contest happened to exclude f2pers due to the poster locations. There's been contests before this and there'll be ones after it that F2Pers can get on and equally there's been contests before that F2Pers couldn't get in on. It's basically just an extension of the standard P2P vs F2P practice, if you don;t pay for P2P you don't get access to all the content, which in this case happens to be a contest.

BBCinematics New Gaming Channel Plus MIBFYH, please help
If that's what BB stands for I'd urge changing it even more considering the prevalent meaning of bareback in modern usage isn't exactly child friendly and theoretically most of runescapes target market (and thus your market) should not be exposed to such language.

BBCinematics New Gaming Channel Plus MIBFYH, please help
The main thing I'd say at a glance is you want to rename it. Using 'BBC' especially as done in your logo/avatar on youtube is kinda asking for issues considering the existence of, well, the BBC who are a pretty big TV & Radio broadcasting corporation who have several channels that are broadcast internationally.

Game update 19th April
This please. You are getting mad because you have to change the layout of a 3rd party tool? I think? Or maybe you just want *something* to complain about. I think the point is that we shouldn't have to use a 3rd party tool for something that should have been a part of DG from the start. But the complaint Kimberly raised specifically associated to this update was Jagex were useless/stupid at designing it because they put the key HUD in a screen area the 3rd party tool currently overlaps. Which is what people are questioning, no-ones really disagreed that DGS does have features Jagex should provide. Only that it's not right to accuse Jagex of being at fault for a 3rd party software overlapping the new HUD.

W6 is usually pretty busy, particularly late afternoon > early am in GMT/BST aka peak time when it is early enough UK time for many to still be on, but late enough US time for them to of emerged from work and school. To add to on-topic info in my personal experience I'd say with the right team doing level 5 in a role is fastest for healer, with attacker a close second. Simply because you can gain healer points from healing so with either high level who take armour off to help or fairly nooby people you can gain heaps of points compared to other roles. Third place would be collector and slowest has got to be defender because even a pro-defend is some what at the mercy of the runners AI making them do stupid moves and until about level 3 the bait range makes it quite tricky. This is speaking getting lvl 5 att, def and heal in the past half yr-ish and on level 3 or 4 col atm, been getting a few levels every time I go there for horn filling. So for simplicities sake attacker is the best bet *but* on the other hand every one and has dog wants to be attacker which can make it harder to get a team.

Game update 19th April
It's not their fault if you're using some other application you know >.> I can't even begin to explain how agitating it was to read your post. Bad design IS their fault. Whether it's failing to provide a map application like Stev's, shoving vital information in hard-to-reach places, or knowing their limitations and working with the modding community to make the experience enjoyable and well-rounded. This is every bit as dumbfounded as their earlier flounderings, founded strongly in their desire to happily ignore any and everything that is their own shortcomings in addressing player needs. Except it's not their problem or their fault. It's a long standing fact they do not work with or officially support third-party software. There is no reason at all for their design process to account for third party software. Yes the prior placement was annoying, but this is a big improvement. The fact a third-party add-on overlaps it is not their issue to deal with, it's an issue for the add-on which, as people pointed, is one Stev will no doubt fix quite quickly.

Phone numbers spoofed to steal RS pins
I wonder if this even *really* belongs in General Discussion rather than off-topic. I mean sure the scammer's happened to buy RS pins but it's not exactly RS related. It's all to do with the scammers, surfpin and the telecoms company. No real direct involvement for runescape or impact to runescape as a game.

Now that I like. Certainly would offer some speed advantages over individual offer entry without opening up heaps more slots.

Tip.it website radio!
Just because they do it doesn't make it legal. Purchasing a song or movie does not give you the right to freely broadcast it, it even says so right in all the copyright blurbs on itunes and on the starts of movies. It's why youtube videos with musical soundtracks often get the sounds removed. Even shops that play music over speakers have to get licences for it, the store I worked in did and when it expired we were not allowed to put any music on. And I did not raise the issue of DJS being voluntary, I raised the issue of successfully running it with only voluntary staffing due to the fact it would eat significant amounts of their time. It's not the same as being a forum mod or website crew which can be done in the 5 minutes you have free after dinner and then find some time later in the week etc.
