Well... my cats are kind of a long story. I LOVE cats, and dogs, and animals in general. My mom likes cats but... me, my dad, and my brother are all kind of allergic, me and my dad very much so. :P She decided we're getting cats anyways... (I have no idea how she justified it..) So yes, we adopted two kittens from the SPCA. They're sisters. :) But they started peeing around the house and mom decided this wasn't working out, so we found a different home for the cats. (Wonder who wears the pants in this house hey?) I was sad to see them go, and I still miss them, even though they made my life a sneezy, stuffed up, asthma attack hell. Izzy was short haired, and named for her "schizophrenic" attitude where she would be doing nothing in particular and then all of a sudden decide she had to be on the opposite side of the house RIGHT NOW. I wanted to name the medium haired one Egwene, but everyone else in my house was like huh? (Wheel of Time) So her name became Gwyn, which my dad said was short for Gwyndallin (sp?) cuz she was such a little prim, proper princess. She would sit on my lap every morning when I ate breakfast. :) Anyways, here they are:

If someone could actually do that, they should be spending their time on much bigger things than Runescape. I have no idea as to the answer to your question however. :P

Hmm that does sound much easier.. I'll give it a try like that. :D

Umm... you know in the news when you hear about kids who have KILLED themselves over these games? (Go look at Off-Topic, perhaps, I've seen posts there.) Whose to say there won't be people who will kill OTHERS? I can't see how ANYONE thinks this is a good idea, it's absolutely ridiculous!! Maybe killing is a little extreme, but anyone could go find anyone else and harass them, whether they have a reason or not! Just because you "behave well" and have "common sense" on the forums doesn't mean the crazy kid is going to decide you aren't worth the fun. Dangerous, stupid, I can't wait until Blizzard gets sued and realises what a terrible idea it was. EDIT: I read a link someone posted on page 3 or 4, and I'm very glad to hear that the idea has been removed, or changed or whatever. :)

If the herb gets diseased and recovers, it'll take another farming 'tick' to grow. That's where the extra time comes from I believe.

You have to wait. There's no reason not too anyways. If you COULD dig it up, you'd lose the herbs no matter what. If you let it grow it could very well survive and give you herbs.

I would like to announce the rebirth of this topic: SHOOOESSSS AHHHHH *scream, fall, die, love* [hide] [/hide] These are my favourite real shoes:

Yep, that'd be it. I have a few of my own things. :P In the morning when my brother showers, he leaves the light on in his room. I used to think he did it because it was dark in the morning, and leaving the light on let him get to the bathroom without running into something. But this time of year its PERFECTLY bright in the morning, and he continues to leave it on, no matter how many times I ask him to turn it off when he leaves, or turn it off MYSELF. It pisses me off so much. >.< I work at a gas station, very often at the till. I hate when people talk on the phone when they're at the till. How on Earth am I supposed to communicate with you? I could be rude and just ride right over their phone conversation, but that doesn't come naturally to me so I usually just end up waiting or talking very quietly while they pay no attention to my whatsoever. Maybe sometime I'll try saying some ridiculous price. That'll be $100 gas for you're tiny Honda. See if they ever catch on. :P (I won't charge that price of course..) I'm sure there's a billion things that annoy me, but those are my top two. :P

Without modern medicine I also probably wouldn't be here.. But I agree with you. I think it's ridiculous how much we want EVERYONE TO LIVE FOREVER, so we pump medicines into them.

Huh my boyfriend downloaded Braid once... wonder if he still has it. I might give it another try. :P I've played a few of these games, and this list has given me some ideas for more to try. :D I'm looking into Demon's Soul and Trine right now. :o

In the second option, do you mean have just one object/structure? Or do are you talking about the way I'm calling the function? I haven't found a terribly decent tutorial anywhere that goes through basics such as.. how to CALL the functions. xD

That sounds a lot simpler than the go fish game, I certainly might try doing that first! I quit working at this for a few days because my classes have started up again. When I have free time I'll keep working on it though. I'm having trouble using the functions, and making them work sometimes. You can't just call the function, you have to call it FROM an object... like deck.Shuffle(); right? And if you want to shuffle THAT deck, depending on how you deal with the function, you would have to go: deck = deck.Shuffle(); OR deck.Shuffle(deck); Is that right?

I tried playing the game a while back... I was doing super awesome, killing bosses and fun stuff, and then I turned it on one time? And my save file was just gone!! Stupid NES :(

I used to do a combination of the two. I live half an hour out of the city, so there's definitely no buses for me here. Not owning a car almost isn't an option if you live outside the city. But the university I go to gets cheap bus passes for the students (70$ or so for four months), so that's MUCH cheaper than paying for a parking space. And there's some super convenient DART (Direct Access Rapid Transit or something) routes that travel between most of the malls and the university, as well as a few other places. So I would drive to the city, park at the mall on the west side (for free all day!) and then take the bus from the mall to the university. Now that I'm taking summer classes though the university doesn't offer the cheap bus passes, so I've been driving the whole way everyday. It's about an hour from home to the university. I definitely prefer driving on my own, buses aren't fun at all, and I always get motion sick. :P But it's way cheaper and more practical during the regular term.

A "procedural fragment" of C++ is what we've been using. I had two classes, one was a very introductory class (loops, if-else, the absolute basics), and then the next semester was more about structures (trees, linked lists, hash tables). I've heard we're going to do Java in one of my second year classes in September. A Go Fish game doesn't sound too bad. :D Right now I'm trying to figure out how to make a deck.. I'm trying to make it it's own object, but I'm having issues just using it right now. :P

Hello! I don't spend a lot of time on these forums, but I think I might in the future. :) I'm currently a second year university student. In my first year we learned C++, but we only touched on Object Oriented Programming. So I'm trying to teach it to myself while I have some downtime between summer classes! I've managed to make a simple program that builds cards, then spits the cards out to stdout. What I'd like from you guys is a suggestion of a simple one-player card game I might be able to make! Right now I'm running everything through Command Prompt (Windows system :P) and that's where all my output goes, so all my output is of course text based. I've been curious if there's another place I can direct output that isn't strictly text? Even if there is, it's likely too complicated for me to try yet, but I would still like to know about it. :) EDIT: Another question that's not entirely important right now, but may be in the future: I don't seem to have the stdint.h or cstdint libraries on my laptop. Is there a way I can check? And if they aren't there, is there a way I can get them? If it helps I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium!

I learned C++ in my first year of university, I didn't find it too hard as a first language really. cplusplus.com is a great site for libraries, functions, and other things. It also has a forum (I don't know how active it is) where you can ask for help. There's a beginner tutorial as well on the front page, I think it's pretty useful. Good luck!

That would be 1 bug per every 50 lines of code.... I think he means 20 000 bugs ever... And a LOT of those were not very bug bigs. How many game-changing bugs have there been? Bugs like the Falador Massacre, high-alching bugs, etc? Less than 100 I'm sure. Also if you sat down and wrote 50 lines of code, and didn't create one bug? You no longer classify as human.

I don't know when they started, but I'm very certain they've stopped doing that.

Ardougne was definitely the hardest one, imo, followed buy Karamja, and then Varrock.. Lumbridge was the easiest. So Falador, Fremmenik and Seers falls somewhere in between those. From easiest to hardest: Lumbridge Falador/Seers/Fremminik Varrock Karamja Ardougne This is only based on my opinion, and on the vague memories I have of doing them. Others might have other opinions.

What has anyone said about banning acounts that don't bot? And if someone bots on a different account, but not on their main, why on Earth SHOULDN'T Jagex ban them? If it really is the same person, and they're a constant repeat offender, ban their main, and maybe they'll go away and we can stop worrying about them. I think that two strikes is plenty to get people to realise they shouldn't bot. Three strikes is just offering them twice as many chances to bot. Instant perma-ban seems a little harsh, unless they KNOW it is the same person doing it on different accounts all the time. I vote for two strikes!

If you can, I'd use a Lava Titan over a BOB. I've heard the mining boost is worth more than the extra space, because you can bank very quickly anyways. I definitely prefer to use world 84, but it can be laggy.

I used those instructions to change my Java settings, I've always really wanted to use High Detail. :) It works great, but I got a message saying that my graphics driver failed, and I had to restart RS. That never happened before.. do you happen to know what the default amount of RAM assigned to Java is, in case I need to change it back? Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread. O.O

I used to use mine on Thieving just cause it's not a skill I enjoy training... However I finally got 75 in it, so I've switched to summoning. :) I use them on summoning because of the charms, and the cost. Just use it on something you deem practical, or don't like to train.

I'm still not having much luck, but I hear it can take a lot of work. I've kept a dream journal the last 4 days, and the dreams I remember are getting much longer and more vivid, which is a good sign. :) I've got the next 4 months where I don't have to worry about how much sleep I get, so I'm going to really try all summer! I've tried the WBTB (Wake Back to Bed) method, which is basically the WILD method only after waking up in the middle of the night (hopefully just before and REM cycle). I always lose focus really quickly though, and just fall back asleep. :(
