Mod Mmg's Cc, 5th May.
Does this mean classic will be opened up to everyone? I wonder how :shock: It's the one he's mentioned before, where you'll have access to 'cheat codes' for classic. Just for people to get a "feel of it", I'm sure. As if they were to allow it back to how it was, you'd find bots starting to sell Gp etc. Whereas, if they leave everything free to get, no trouble will be caused. I'm guessing a lot of people will find out how much RSC sucked in comparison to the RS we have today :P I hope they release the RSC capes when they open up classic. That'll be the ultimate nontradeable equippable item, next to the yoyo.

Musings of a long-forgotten minigame
Love me some Dooku thread. I agree absolutely, Champions Challenge was pretty poorly implemented, considering it's one of the rarest untradeable drops in the game, there's no recognition for defeating any of the champions. My idea I concocted around the time construction came out was a banner for the player to wear, that went on their back and came over their head, like this: http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/3582/35820334rj4.jpg It uses the cape slot. The rewards would be something as follows: Foremost, by defeating their champion and wearing their banner, you send fear into the hearts of their race, most races will leave you alone rather than initiate combat. I updated it for the God Wars Dungeon. Lesser Demon Champion - All demons will be unaggressive towards you, serves same purpose as a Zamorak item in GWD, increases drop potential at demons. While wielding, you unlock a previous untapped rage towards Zamorakian creatures, and gain a bonus attack against them. Jogre Champion - All ogres will be unaggressive, Bandos item in GWD, the banner reminds you of your experiences in the jungle. As a result, the effects of being poisoned are halved, including poison received from another player's attacks. Earth Warrior Champion - You are the new Earth Warrior Champion, and have gained the respect of the Earth Warriors. Drop is unlocked, an untradeable reagant for summoning an earth warrior, a fierce warrior. The second ingredient is granite, the summoning level required would be mid to high, and the Earth Warrior summoned would be very powerful melee, but not very good defense. Ghoul Champion - Even the brainless undead recognize their champion. Zombies/Ghouls will be unaggressive, While wearing this you gain valuable knowledge about the undead, giving you an edge in combat. A new basement level of the Slayer tower is made available for you, it contains no new creatures, but a bunch of high leveled slayer monsters, and serves as an empty training spot. Giant Champion - You gain the giant's prized possession, a club capable of stunning your opponent until they next take damage, or a few seconds (whichever comes first) as well as knocking them back a few steps. Giants will now be unaggressive, Bandos item in GWD, I don't have a full list of them, but those are just a few ideas I had.

YOU vs. Mediocrity
Toasting in an epic bread. I did all the quests, unlike Joe. I've also never had an obsidian shield, granite torso, or dragon gauntlets, or an obsidian cape, nor have I funded anything through green dragons. I am going for 99 fishing though, but that's to get enough fish for 99 cooking, which I will sell for munies. I also know the updates, don't touch the rants forum, I don't question my...other's sexuality, don't threaten to give up my 7 bucks, and don't talk bad about Jagex's mums. I also have a decent chompy hat. Still working on that, but only after 99 fishing.

What would it take to kill the Runescape Economy?
The economy is ruined every time an update comes out, you should pay more attention to the RSOF. GE? Ruined it. Trade limit? Ruined it. Party Pete's afro wigs? Ruined it. New graphics? ruined it. FunOrb? Ruined it. This post? Ruined it again.

RS is the worst piece of crap to be the greatest thing ever.
You're describing all RPG's. If you think Runescape is bad, you haven't played Final Fantasy XI, where the hardest bosses take upwards of 20 hours to kill. That's 20 hours of continuous mmo gameplay. That's with a group, by the way.

1 May 2007 - Bots and real-world trading
Contributing post? Sounded like random whining and crying to me.

MerchScamming Clans
Well, for one, Omali knows what Omali's talking about. For two, you're like the biggest nerdiest runescape troll I have ever seen. And, for the Pro G.E'ers, clans of 5 people, if they have 50M each, can go around and manipulate the GE easily. It's not hard with a bit of money. But it wasnt hard for people to just trick people into buyin something worth 100gp for 1M gp. Nor was it hard to lure people into the wilderness like you probably did to get YOUR income. *Looks at signature* Props. :thumbsup:

I </3 Price Manipulators
Oh look, the troll is crying about the GE again. Still hasn't quit, how unsurprising. And Jagex has been making updates to refine the GE and make it harder for clans to alter the prices. It just needs more work.

any help with the boredem of fletching ?
Get a book, don't watch your DVR'd stuff for a week, etc. I read. I got Betrayal at Falador, so I can Runescape while I Runescape. I also have a spreadsheet I update while I'm playing. I also have my two websites that I update. I also have the book I'm writing. Not runescape related, politically inclined.

Jagex spoonfeeds its players too much.
Same, I keep looking for a reason to play longer than 5 minutes but there just isn't any updates worth doing more than 5 minutes Well you haven't done While Guthix Sleeps yet. You should get on that.

30th April 2009 - New Dwarf Quest: Diary 3
Oh god no, I nearly broke my wrists trying to get 65 herblore and 69 smithing.. Ummm... why you do that? Well the gods do favor those who offer them bone marrow. Sorry about the wrists, Returned. I needed some extra marrow for a good clue scroll reward, and you were the closest person.

This report ACTUALLY went through...?
Rule 1: Offensive Language. And generally being a pervert over the internet. :shame: Oh. Thanks... Nothing personal, but asking people to make "ghost babies". If the shoe fits, try not to get kicked in the shins with it. I suggest you take a look at the rules and the EULA. Nothing you do on Runescape is "your business", considering you don't even own your own account. Considering you agreed that Jagex could permaban you if any of the rules are broken (read the Terms of Service), you should be glad they just gave you six blackmarks.

MMO Journalist Richard Aihoshi discusses free to play
Actually Jagex has said, on countless occasions, the most recent being Mark Gerhard, that F2P is the full game, and members is an expansion to that game.

MMO Journalist Richard Aihoshi discusses free to play
Tf2, CS:S, and UT are not MMOG's. I have already watched a 10 page argument on VALVe forums about this already. In what way are they not; Massive(ly), Multiplayer, Online or a Game? One server alone might not be classed as massive, but when your competing (for best rank etc) on a 2 or more servers it can be classed as massive. I just looked though a few pages of the definition of MMOG and its a mixed bag. Is massive over 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000 or 5000+ people? An MMOG is a game that can handle hundreds to thousands of players simultaneously on at least on persistant world. What separates MMOG's from games like TF2, Battlefield, and the like is that individual servers can host 64 players maximum, are privately owned (not company run) and do not feature a persistant world. Simply plucking apart the literal meaning of each word in MMOG would make the term redundant, as any online game would be considered an MMOG, and thus the term would be useless.

MMO Journalist Richard Aihoshi discusses free to play
Richard Aihoshi is a big name in MMO journalism, following the growth of MMOs since the mid-90's, focusing on the free play genre. TL;DR Free play models are usually considered insignificant, which is absolutely false Half of WoW's subscribers are in China, where they pay by the session, not monthly. Just because WoW is popular, doesn't make it a superior business model. These games tend to appeal to the greatest amount of users with low system requirements There are a lot more f2p games than subscription based Games with f2p elements tend to not be "clone games" He makes good points, free play games do not get the attention they deserve, because the video game media considers them insignificant because they're free, and how they're regularly overshadowed. I never see Runescape in MMO media, except for a couple times over the past two years, considering it's the most popular f2p mmo ever. If you want to see more of Aihoshi's work, he's an editor on RPGvault, and the above is the first of a weekly article on mmorpg.com

How fast can you reach a million?
So you're able to do Rune Mysteries, mine the essence needed, then air run and grand exchange it to 1m, in the course of an hour? Impressive.

Jagex spoonfeeds its players too much.
No, that's called annoying and inconvenient. I would much rather put in an order for an obscure item and wait for it than spend my time playing in Falador World 2 spamming "omg buying ____" for five hundred times its actual price, or constantly bump a thread on the RSOF that gets no replies. The Grand Exchange was brought in because Runescape was one of the only games to still not support one. It's called progress, not spoonfeeding. Considering you haven't seen anything about this feature further than concept, I'll ignore this. Pointless speculation with no conclusion other than to look for a reason to whine and complain. I have a feeling this thread was made just for this purpose, to vouch for f2p updates.

23rd April 2009 - Rest and Musicians
Never played while sleeping bags were around, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong. But I thought you had to use sleeping bags, otherwise you weren't able to do anything? These bards are really just terrorbird scrolls that you don't have to have a terrorbird to use and that don't follow you around. If you had 100% fatigue, you just wouldn't receive experience.

Homosexuality in RuneScape
So does this mean we won't be able to use a knife on leather chaps and cut out the.....Why is everyone looking at me like that? Also: The game does delve into transgender issues. If you did the first miscellenia quest as a man/woman and then change genders for the next quest, the prince/princess will make a comment about how you've changed, and that they like it. I guess that counts for something.

Homosexuality in RuneScape
Here's a good reason topics related to homosexuality would never survive. Let alone ignorant adults, you have ignorant kiddies like Rapono whose maturity (or lack thereof) can barely handle the conversation aspect, let alone implementation. Anyway, this is about as big of a nonissue as when people start threads saying "OMG jadax r racist. dis grup nawt enuf peplz in rscape". Another non-issue, brought to you by Jard_Y_Dooku.
