Future Update Discussions
Define a "real" update? This is fairly major afterall removal of trade limits. Alterations to how ge works. Return of proper drops. Relocation of several quests and activites. Remapping of a huugge area. Brand new fairly large dungeon. etc. etc. This update has more parts to it and more content chnages in it tht your average weekly update.

herb questions
We are not psychic, its near impossible to say. Herb farming enmass and getting herbs from mtk were never major factors whenf ree trade was around before. Plus all the new epic potions were not around. Odds are with the ge remaining and tracking average trade value theres not alot of reason for herbs to change price much at all; despite what people seem to think there is no economic reason for most items to chnage at all. Pk gear will face a boon. Odds are food will return to a state where cooked costs more than raw And ge guide values of rares will become real as junk trading vanishes. Runes might go up a bit due to rc pkers. Aside from that there isn't muhc, if any, reason for most item values to change.

Holiday Items Guide
You put in that hati paws last for "around 10 hours" This is downright incorrect; BTS did claim this but the main news post and since confirmed in FAQ and in various jmods they have NO connection to time. They drain only by xp gain; which seems to work out to around 100*level per 1% (eg trianing a lvl 86 state makes 8,600 xp per 1%) however it does get messy when u train many stats (eg most combat as it includes hp) as both stats effect the number. I am 100% certain of this I been training at bandits with mine and I've now just had to go repair my barrows armour pieces which were fully repaired when I started and I still have 25% charge elft.

Where is my account?
Odds are if you havent played in years your display name was freed up by jagex. This means your account name may be in use by someone else on the highscores, but you will still be able to log in with it. But once you are logged in your display name will jsut be a random chain of numbers until you update the display name again.

Engine Team Q&As
Its interesting getting a graspe of how the engine team works. Seems they have one of the must dual jobs going as they have their own list of goals to make the engine better but then also a list of request from developers needed for immediate content; so they have to balance adding little things to make upcoming things work while also working on bigger game changing (although behind the scenes) projects. Found it very interesting hearing about the plans with distance detail rendering to swap from grid maps to constant map and also the plans to let us escape from the grid!

Is it possible to upgrade 'task' armor but not get the lamps immediately?
No. If you don't have enough space for ALL the items (lamps and reward) the npc tells u to come bk when u have more space

Soccer is the Greatest Sport
Its this sort of naive american view tht gets me lolin. 1) Football is one of many team sports worth watching in europe depending on your tastes. We have rugby and cricket amoung many others as well as our many non-team sports such as tennis and snooker and horse racing etc. 2) If anything its americans that have an elitist view that American football is the best and is better than "soccer", as proven by the fact they usurped the name.

Banishing the Revenants 27-Jan-2011
Why can't programmers help them? They could but odds are they are working on all the proper game updates and as shown in the past (zombiefest thing) and the cryptic cluefests content mods host (zombiefest) or are part of and post parts of (cluefest) the events. This event currently only has links to community mods.

Banishing the Revenants 27-Jan-2011
Because the entire brining free trade/widly back has been a publicity gimmick fest. Giving a massive public vote that has no option and no properly account verification and had its own mini-website? massive gimmick as it gave no real numbers and brought massive attention to it. Got all the fansites, where retired pkers lurk talking and got gaming sites wanting interviews. Mass publicity to draw in players. Then keeping it constantly on the front page with count downs and dev blogs and FAQs and guides and QAs and now events its all about working up the hype and draggin back in old pkers who quit.

Banishing the Revenants 27-Jan-2011
SNORE Such a gimmick. Already confirmed revs being moved to a dungeon and will drop all the pvp armours, brawlers and statuettes while losing their freexing n teleblocking powers.

shattered heart
Its already covered in the guide tbh. Cleaning herbs OR adding seconds to potions gives rocks. In the case of extreme pots the first is a super pot, the herb added is the second; so you are still adding a second.

New puzzle room I dont see a thread for, Dungeoneering
Thats odd I saw this puzzle in tip.it guide a while back; it seems however you are correct and it is no longer there. I guess a crewbie accidentally overwrote it with a new puzzle or removed it for some reason.

Elemental elements
This already exists to an extent. Many newer monsters have specific mage weaknesses. Like in desert treasure fire owns the ice boss. Water owns smoke earth owns shadow air owns blood I get the last two muddled but i think tht is right.

Mac's and antivirus
Proving Sy_Accursed's point. I'm not seeing it. Not that I was posting to disprove his post. :huh: I'm guessing it was reference to proving my point on matter of experts saying mac is technically less secure. As the list is only updated with OS updates tht are (comapred to windows) not exactly frequent. Newly discovered security loopholes etc remain open for longer than windows where it can be shut within days of being found, no matter how minor. But its only a technicality as obviously the amount of viruses for the os plays a factor.

Animal Magnetism
Ghosts Ahoy is not required. You can use the ectofunctus at any time you so wish and thus get ectotokens. All Gohsts Ahoy does is make entry to the town free and gives you the ectophial which is a useful tele.

The Matrix...4 and 5??
Its not pointless. Not my fault that you can't understand that in film terms yes colour and music are used to convey things NOW. But when colour and sound first became available to film they were used just because and did not add these things to film. Their uses and effects on film had to be established and discovered first. 3D is the same thing, it (in its good form) is still new and is often used just because, it needs time to become established and develop its meaning within film; afterall used rightly it does epically chnage a film, it gives a better comprehension of space and distance and so can be used to emphasise or de-emphasise certain characters. Seeing 3D figures relates in your heads to real people and real life and thus can help engage empathy and relation to the characters quicker. etc. There loads of things it does do, its jsut not established enough to be used amazingly or taken as a given yet. It's like anything we take for granted once upon a time its use was very blurred and undefined and it was a gimmick. I mean when mobiles first appeared they were a massive gimmick and no-one could see a big use for them in day to day life. Now look at the world everyone from about 12 upwards in the western world has a mobile and becomes quite lost without it. The fact remains when they first got the technology to add colour and sound to film both were gimmicks and did not have a defined use. 3D is the modern equivalent.

Waterfiends profit with this set up?
As far as I know waterfiends don't ever really come anywhere near profit as they don't have any amazing drops and only a few decent drops. The only reason they are popular is because they near enough 100% drop a charm and like 99.9% of thoose charms are crimson.

Farming JuJu Potions
You can however quite easily use skill neckalce to fishing guild or lunar fishing guild tele or even a fairy ring by the legends guild and end up within a stones throw of the patch. Ardy cape only saves you like a couple of seconds really.

The Matrix...4 and 5??
You forget they had theater for hundreds of years before movies were invented. These things have ALWAYS represented something bigger. No I haven't. In theatre yes they did; but in movie they meant nothing and we're merely new gimmicks when they arrived. Besides you forget we always hd 3D the entire world is in 3D, before thearte before opera before music before it all there was 3D. Just because its older doesn't mean anything.

Hati gloves
Training strength at armoured zombies. 1.4mil (well 1.392mil) total exp from 100% to 0%. 700k normal, 700k bonus. Reset xp counter when I started using them, only time I unequipped them was to kill Bork once, like 500xp? That doesnt explain your first psot at all. You said that if 10k*ur lvl were true you would of gotten MORE THAN 1.4mil xp from yours at 95/96 strength. If we take 95, it works out to 950k. 950k is clearly not more than 1.4mil, so how does your statement of if 10k*lvl was true you would of got more than 1.4mil work? I'm not disputing you got that much xp, with 97 hp and the level gain it sound about right. Merely that your post made no sense, since you claimed the formula would of given you more than 1.4mil xp; yet the formula clear works out to you getting 950k xp

The Matrix...4 and 5??
I have to disagree. The color of a person's clothes can have significance (red=passion/lust, green=envy, etc.) and music has always been used to convey or amplify the emotions of the characters or to bring about an emotional response from the audience. 3D does none of those except to make audiences go "ooh". And a lot of the time is just makes the makers of the movie abuse it with some really stupid scenes/shots. Before movies had music with them or soundtracks music did not have that function. Before colour movies colour did not have that function. Both became part of the movie experience as £D will in time.
