None, but when they come along, it's undeniably fun.

The economy has its ups and downs. The OP is looking long-term.Why did prices go down recently then? -

For a laptop, I strongly advise against overclocking. Laptop components are made for lower power consumption to reduce heat. This is one of the reasons for mobile CPU's and mobile GPU's.EDIT: also, if you wanted to consider upgrading your laptop it likely wouldn't be too hard: for a few hundred bucks, you can get an external hardrive for movies and such, more memory, clean it out, and overclock the crap out of it if it's a mid/low range processor. Graphics cards are cheap too.Paw_Claw, what's the budget? You should go with cooldog08's suggestion and use HP's laptop customization. Aim for no lower than a 2 GHz dual-core CPU and a HD 3200 or 4200.

No doubt they dominated their time, but so did DF in their prime, even if it wasn't as large scale. DS would've eventually hit some kind of slump and lost their reign, but I think they'd still have the upper hand on DI. I can even go on to say DI might have not closed if DS was still around.
Just like Shadow Elves I suppose, or similar. Shame DS closed, wonder what it would be like these days with them around.
DS' core leadership knew that in the near future they wouldn't have the time to fully dedicate themselves, and their interest in the game slowly fell.P.S. If anyone could post why Dark Slayers closed it would be much appreciated, I believe it will provide an interesting case study.
Well put.People would rather join success rather than create success. -

Not bad, albeit it still does not fully conform to standards.

When a system lags at specific intervals, there are a few reasons: malware is taking screenshots of your computer screen, your sound driver or device is poor (not necessarily your fault), your anti-malware is scanning, or your anti-malware guard/shield feature is running checks at those intervals.I'm having problems in-game and I'm not sure why. Basically, every minute or so the game gets really laggy and slow, but then goes back to normal. I've got a laptop that can play Modern Warfare 2 on highest detail, so it should be able to run runescape on highest spec easily, but it keeps doing this even on low detail, and I've now connected my laptop to my router just incase it was a wireless internet problem but it wasn't. Any suggestions? -
I've looked for tests that also take into account layout and graphics engines, but they're not as popular as JavaScript oriented ones. I have found CSS rendering tests like this, which on my system Opera and Chrome complete in six and twelve milliseconds respectively.The test is only based on JavaScript. Furthermore, the test is largely influenced by the CPU and GPU within the system and it is unlikely that a user is going to be benchmarking every browser.While the Peacekeeper results are in fact reliant on each user's specifications, I don't believe there aren't any Chrome users out there who don't have an i7 920 with two 4870's.
My two criticisms are the lack of quick use of access keys and its bare-bones IRC client. Although I believe its widgets are generally underdeveloped, I find user JS and user CSS to compensate. Opera Unite's release has only furthered the boundaries.Am I the only Opera user that has criticisms of the browser?
Those are not innovations of Opera because they were adopted from NetCaptor and Firefox.
Such as? The only ones I can think of came from NetCaptor (tabbed browsing) and Firefox (add-ons and extensions.)It is the source of many innovations other major browsers have adopted.I will enlighten you with a list of inventions of each browser once I have the time to list them all. You will be surprised :)

There are a few that are ongoing.Well I'm sorry that there isn't a monthly test on the major browsers. If, however, you'd like to do so, by all means link it to here.http://clients.futuremark.com/peacekeeper/index.action
Run that test and when you get to the results screen, scroll down. The fastest system is currently Opera 10.51 with over 13,000 points. Chrome 5 held the previous record with just over 10,000 points.
Speed, however, is only one aspect of Opera that can be appreciated. It is the source of many innovations other major browsers have adopted. The browser market would be substantially different if Chrome or Opera had not existed.

That test is outdated. It uses old versions of Firefox, Opera, and Chrome.IE is a browser for those who either don't know others exist or are too lazy to switch.
Firefox is a bandwagon browser.
Safari is a Chrome copycat.
Chrome is a browser for people who aren't power users.
Opera is the is the true innovator, speed king, and feature master. After spending two years evaluating each browser in depth, I can say with my life's confidence that no other major browser can touch even Opera's foundation. If all the other browsers were planets, Opera would be the universe and every parallel.
I can see the bias reeking from this post.
This test would like to prove you wrong.

Ah. Thought you already had 7 running.
Newer motherboards have the 4+2 pin auxiliary connector. When I built my new rig, I didn't know what this extra power connection was doing on my motherboard lol

Waiting to see what DH has to say.

Ah, good times.Ok, thanks for feedback. Also, where are the first few clan chronicle issues?@Lady Ninane - I'm not sure if I'm clan-smart enough anymore, I used to be an editor if you don't remember? With Lordofrah, Troyus, and some others.

Most RuneScapers will never know how different clanning is from the rest of the game. The clan scene is one of extreme organization, dynamics, and entwined communities. No other branch of RuneScape, built-in or otherwise, can compare.

Ranged, although unexpected.

Teams' purpose are to give clan members more warring experience. And of course, clan events > team events. Under that logic, joining a team is not multiclanning.

A venerable clan. Welcome back to Tip.It.
-
Take a look at Nexus. I've worked with the clan leader before as ex-clan mods here on TIF. Over the years I've known him, I've found him both knowledgeable and respectful.
-
This was the only reason I bought membership.Certainly Agility. Before the update it was a trend for f2p clanners to get their agility up whenever they are p2p. -
Even that has its faults. Part of being a leader is making unpopular decisions.I think, leader(s) should make up new ideas and let the clan members to vote wether it is good or bad if the issue concerns them. -
Good point. This is why clans aren't democratic. At least they shouldn't be. Decisions from leaders are based on background information, observation, and experience. Quality decisions like that can't be made from a member's point of view.I am sure there are many clans that elect its officals by popular vote. A clan based on the US constitution would be almost impossible, in theory there are three branches of government, but in reality there are four. Without a large population and other issues to concern about, you are lefting out the lobbyists and the general population which can be a problem at times. The supreme court would be fairly useless as well for what constituition would they have to interpret? Unless you are thinking about just president(clan leader), the senate+HOR(lower officals and rest member make up HOR). One of the biggest problem here is that if the leader made the clan, s/he is most likely unwilling to give much of his/her power away for essentially s/he has spend the most time on it and who would be willing to share that much power?Leaders sharing too much power is not a good idea. No matter how much trust a leader has for another, it's the leader's responsibility to keep the clan safe, and that means keeping a certain level of trust with staff.

I'd like agility to come back.
Are there any "old school" players still out there?

In classic, I did everything myself. For the first few months of RS2 I carried the same tradition through, but over time, as level gaining became more tedious, I found that buying raw materials produced the quickest results. With infinite shop stocks, the Grand Exchange, and the sheer amount of players providing raw materials, most players don't want or need to do it themselves anymore.
