Ok, let's just take everyone's skills (except combat, like you said) And make them choose 5 of the following: Prayer, Cooking ,Woodcutting, Fletching, Fishing, Firemaking, Crafting, Smithing, Mining, Herblore, Agility, Thieving, Slayer, Farming, Runecrafting. If I had to choose 5 skills to keep (and drop the others) I'd quit. Don't care how many more skills Jagex came out with, I would quit. The only players that would be left in runescape would be those with pures. The skill restrictions are one of the major factors of why I chose runescape over others MMO's. If the position had been changed (Runescape being 15 dollars and others being 5) I would easily pay more for runescape.

My account wasn't locked. Doesn't surprise me...nobody will ever figure out my screen name.

Same here. I know that the events are random, but it is definitely not distributed evenly among players. I personally have not gotten most of the random events...ever. And i've been playing rs2 since it came out.

as would I

While there's nothing I can say to make Tip.It change their minds, I would appreciate it if someone (who currently has the article) would send the article in question to me (either through email or PM) And for the wary, I have no intention on placing this back on the internet.

I highly doubt this would count as 3rd party software, since there are many highscore websites that use the same techinique to make you those flashy sigs you love so much.

That's a pointless argument. That would me like me going over to Id Software and demanding they give me Doom3 for free because I can't afford the retail version.

true man, but you are also the first person to have my veiw that carpentry and POHs are gonna be an add on to the crafting skill. thats what my moneys on, any takers? You should count your bucks then, because Jagex already announced it's going to be an entirely new skill.
