Hi guys, Just wondering what veggies you guys grow - strawberries are getting too expensive. I'm making a nice profit from growing Irits, plus I don't think I'm losing money on Limpwurts, unless you have better ideas...

(Note, I know that there's another thread on this, but it got a bit silly...) Last visit was: Fri Feb 22, 2008 10:51 am... I've been away from RS for quite a while, I was a member for a year or so. I think my stats were ok, and I feel like giving RS another go. I'll make a decision within the next couple of hours whether to get a month's membership, but my main problem is I've only got 45K in the bank. So, if I was going to come back, playing max 10 hours a week, how would I go about earning some cash very quickly and generally getting back into the game (any quests worth checking out?)

I think my solution will be to fish sharks (can't seem to sell swordies anymore) and use the money from that on herblore.

I'm trying to get herblore up and also trying to make a bit of cash, but with GE prices you make a loss on every potion. e.g. Avantoe is 1031gp, Snape grass is 435gp but the pots only sell for 144 so you're losing 1322gp per pot! And that's without the extra 100gp for wf vials. Is there any way to make money on herblore now?

Hi Merry Christmas to all. Haven't been on RS for a while and I noticed the Christmas item was available. I'm at Karamja and it's snowing but where do I find Shanty Claws?

That's the second recommendation for mossies. First to get 200 swordies, then that's where I'll be.

Yeah I'm a member. I find slayer annoying too :P What's "the stronghold place"?

I'm currently 63 att, 63 str, 63 def and I'm looking for a good training spot. Pest control is getting boring because the teams never seem to win and so is the Karamja dungeon minigame. Good item drops are a plus. Thanks in advance. Edit: I've always thought this kind of thing would be a good thing to add to a guide. Current suggestions: Moss Giants in Varrock Troll Stronghold

Hi, I was thinking about the technical aspects behind RuneScape and I realised it would be a perfect case study for one of my IT classes at school. I'd really like to interview one of the devs at Jagex. I don't need any trade secrets, just an overview of how everything fits together. Questions: * What problems other than server load and the World 111 bug have the recent updates caused? * What challenges are there in maintaining a game that so many people play? * How are new updates and changes tested before public release? * How do all the servers/worlds stay in sync? * How is the Runescape network set up (clients/servers)? * How do you manage servers that are spread right across the world? (thinking of more) What do you guys think? Am I wasting my time? How would I go about getting an interview with someone at Jagex?

This makes me worried as my sister and I both play from the same network and will appear behind the same IP.
