Runescape vs. WoW (RWT)
Could you quit that "credit fraud argument" already? - It's a pretty bad reason as there are lots of other ways to beat it (for example use a third party thing like paypal instead: This might cost a bit more but I for one would gladly pay those 0.30 euros extra to get some wilderness feeling again!). Because it was the reason! Using paypal and any other method does not prevent charge backs, infact paypal is one of the worse methods, as its so easy to recall payments. All of Jagex's payment methods use third party services already. Please get your facts correct before flaming me.

WHATS ON TUTORIAL ISLAND?
I don't understand why they didn't just move any players on there to lumbridge. Such a waste of space now tbh.

Runescape vs. WoW (RWT)
It wasn't just the fact that the bots were ruining the community, it was because of all the chargebacks jagex was getting from accounts from bots that used false information, or credit card fraud. And because of this was loosing alot of money. They said if they didn't do it when they did a few years down the line they would have had to close Runescape. Blizzard on the other hand, is a much larger well established company that probably could quite easily afford the loss, but as its not f2p (by that i mean you have to buy the game not just membership) the amount of bots/chargebacks is a lot lower than that of jagex.

Best place to have a war?
I dont know how we are supposed to answer this, considering we don't know what levels, zones or safeareas there will be. but if there where no restrictions, i would say varrock or ardy as there is 2 banks on either side. or varrock vs fally on the lands around barb village and edge.

hidden boat
i think its from a recent quest cant remember the name, but its where you have to get the key from the Karamthulhu to open the chest inside the ship. edit. Pretty sure its the underwater shipwreck in the rocking out quest. But then again maybe its not, as theres water below it...

New PvP, exactly how will it not be used to rwt?
Just to clear up that drops are not based on the items people are wearing, but by "levels and the impressiveness of the kill". Therefore, I don't foresee this happening as a lvl 90 killing a non-retaliating lvl 44 with 1 def, most likely killing them in about 2 hits, isn't exactly a very impressive kill. I have to correct you, but it does not say that it wont, it just says factors like. Bounty hunter already rewards you depending on how much you wear, im sure it will have an effect, maybe not on the person you killed but quite possible on how much you are risking.

Runescape Tools v1.4 [UPDATED! Timer, Counter]
Not bad, i wrote a similar script to add an irc java applet over the chat box and a few other things like hiscores ect, still use it sometimes. And as for editing prefs why not just go.. Tools > Greasemonkey > Manage User Scripts. Select the script from list and click edit, then find a text editor such as notepad[Caution: Executable File].

15 Aug 2008 - Future PvP Updates
[hide=] Will be interesting. not sure why anyone would complain, anything is better than BH tbh. Really? You don't know the RuneScape community, then.[/hide] I didn't say they wouldn't... :roll: just not sure why they would. I'm an old skool pker and i know that i would much rather have any variation on the old system, even if rewards are pathetic than the BH system.

New PvP, exactly how will it not be used to rwt?
hmm ok... I cant see that gravestones would appear, as it would not be high danger, someone could just bless it.

New PvP, exactly how will it not be used to rwt?
Pretty simple, there would probably be a time limit where you wont get a drop if you kill that person again within the limit. As rewards will probably be based on how much the person you kill/you are wearing and how easy you killed them, so if you just took 5 sec to kill them you probably wont get anything, where as if its a hard, even fight you will probably get a better drop. And remember you will lose items, (probably no gravestone). So multi logging accounts would be pointless, as you probably wouldnt get a drop, and if you do want a drop you would have to sacrifice items.

PVP worlds - Taking control of Areas
Sounds fun, but i doubt it would happen. That last 1% i would presume would be safe areas around banks, thats probably where most will hag out waiting for ppl to exit. Over time i'm sure spots will appear for different styles, like the old edge and varrock. I'm really happy so far, although dubious about these new rewards (will they really be rewarding...) mostly for the fact we will get single way pking back! If i can make a decent living from these rewards i will be doing nothing but this, like the old days :D . :thumbsup:

PvP update : Revitalise skilling
im not buying anything yet, it could still be 5 months away. The rewards will probably be much lower than those of the old pking days, chance of losing your items for a messly reward wont get me pking full time again. Not to mention some of the rewards sound like they might not be tradable, such as xp boosters and short-term items.

15 Aug 2008 - Future PvP Updates
wildy will probably be full of revs, not to mention a load of wildy is now taken up by Bh and ClanW. It wont be that hard to find people as the world will be dedicated to it, 2000 people in a world you'll find them.

15 Aug 2008 - Future PvP Updates
I can't wait til it happen !!! so no it won't be cool when it is on the 1 year anniversary of removal of wilderness !!! :shame: but the main problem 4 me is that how many world is going to be P v P ? and Which part of the world will this P v P happen in ??? :wall: 99% of the world, last 1% will probably safe areas around banks and such.

Bounty Hunter - Huge Mistake On Behalf Of Jagex?
Well it was never going to stop RWT full stop. But it got rid of most of the gold farmers and along with it vast majority of RWT. Sure its still possible i myself know 2 ways for transferring cash/items. But its too much hastle for the ave gold farmer. The main point is that if people stopped wasting their cash on it, (like its hard to get a few mill nowadays) the problem would be solved. :lol:
-
Dynamic Signatures Released!
They look pretty good, shame you cant change text fonts and colors tho. My siggy is better (can change pretty much everything) making it public soon :lol:
-
The Runecrafting Guild - Could it be F2P!?
hmm, due to the fact that it will house a new minigame i cant see it being f2p as it gives XP rewards, its highly unlikely anyway.

Discovery about skeletal wyverns
I found that when meleeing them, I got hit the same with or without pray on (melee hardly ever hits on me) so i dont bother and still get the same amount of kills per trip. :roll:
-
The Runecrafting Guild - What will happen to rune prices?
From reading BTS all i can make out is that the rc guild will house the new minigame. The only thing that its really going to effect is the fact that a few less people may just do the minigame instead of the usual rc'ing. (xp rewards will probably be lame) I cant see there being any shop selling essence but if they do it will not be lower than ge so it wont effect prices. Maybe a shop that sells tiaras, talisman, runes ect. sounds more likely Or bank closer to an ess mine.
