  1. All of the things on their services.runescape.com subdomain have always seemed rather slow, at least to me.
  2. So someone offers me the service of doubling my money, and I accept. I ask them to do so a number of times and leave when I do not want any more money. I don't see how they could be benefiting but everyone seems to leave happy.
  3. To stop those saying that this only effects stakers... I too feel the same way, though I have never once staked in my life (well i mean, 'risked' staking or whatever it is when you gamble items) yet I too feel like my accomplishments pale in comparison to those who thoughtlessly bet ten times my bank on a minute of fighting. It's really discouraging.
  4. maps are stored in chunks, which are 16x16x128 volumes of blocks. notch would have to move over to a completely different file system to allow you to go higher or lower. I've also heard that there is a problem with terminal velocity if you drop the full height of the map
  5. i often td without sound basically, whenever it leans back you should pray against mage but be ready to switch to range. its range attack is the most damaging, followed my mage, and melee is a joke. when it leans back it very often fires off a magical attack but then generally changes its default style. the sounds are very distinctive but shouldn't be what you use to determine when to switch. it leaning back actually makes no sound at all
  6. you should basically just count on not losing money... sometimes you get a few rune meds / battlestaves and make 100k or something, but generally just consider it 'free' charms (let's not get into opportunity cost)
  7. Well, I'd obviously only use it as a spec weapon and not my standard melee, and korasis can max in the 700s so its still a decent spec weapon (I wouldnt buy claws at its pricetag) runewiki says korasi's spec hits between 50% and 150% of your max hit say the max is around 700, that means it is 1.5x your normal melee max, 700 / 1.5 = 466 let's say 500. we use this value because it hits between 50% and 150%, 100% is the middle and assume uniform distribution (i guess?) in multiway the second attack is half of the first, and the third attack is a quarter of the first. so total damage 500 = x + x/2 + x/4 500 = (4x + 2x + x) / 4 500 = 7x / 4 2000/7 = x = 285 just rough calculation... don't really know that much about korasi's sword
  8. it's like having all three styles... for one attack every few minutes, at the expense of a better attack
  9. when you crash and the world is 'gone', most usually it's only the 'level' file, and not the files that save the information on all the chunks. just back that file up often. only on a few occasions have chunks gotten messed up when my game has crashed (i'm on a laptop, overheating is a problem...)
  10. The spawning algorithm changed slightly, affecting the range at which creatures will spawn, as well as despawn from your character. It could be that it keeps mobs on a tighter leash relative to your character now, though I'm not sure. also, mobs always have spawned in packs when possible, so it's possible you just stumbled upon a newly spawned batch of mobs
  11. how very strange. as has been said, you can't use combat familiars at the warriors guild, and having a defender won't help you train summoning, unless you plan to use it to collect charms through combat. given that how you do each activity will not be affected by the completion of the other, you can do them in any order without them having an effect on each other. however, now that you bring slayer into this, which is a combat skill, you should get a defender before you train slayer, because it will speed up slayer. slayer won't speed up getting defenders, so it makes sense to do the activity that will benefit the other, first.
  12. which side of that rock, in that picture, are you killing them on?
  13. those replies are highly logical, but we're looking for the truth here jagex states that augury boosts magical attack, yet none of the other mage prayers have that specification. So under normal logic i'd assume augury is different, but again, this is jagex, and that kb article might be maintained by seven different employees who don't consult each other, so we can't, not to mention augury was released much later than the other prayers etc. so really, we need some testing of some kind
  14. you're limited to gaining 12 rank per hour at mobilising armies. You can however get 12 rank in under an hour and then go do something else. assuming you gain 12 rank per hour, it'll take 300/12 = 25 hours to achieve 300 rank. suiciding in siege generally achieves around 12 rank per hour. I advise a combination of suiciding siege and playing (to win) games of conflict, as neither is full enough to do 24/7. sometimes there just isn't anyone there who wants to play siege. If money isn't your main concern, i suggest just going to mobilising armies and trying to gain a few ranks, and see if you're up to it. a lot of people seem to get bored and can't handle getting to 300+ rank.
  15. I was in a similar situation to you, and started taking cs classes in java, and found it pretty easy to pick up. Now I'm trying to learn c++. It's quite a bit harder and I think it'd be even more so if I hadn't learned some java already. So ideally i think that java would be a good place to start at, especially since you can integrate java applets into web pages which sort of enhances your web based programming arsenal, and it'd prepare you for harder programming languages such as c++.
  16. I do not believe either of you will get triple charms if you lootshare while one of you has the familiarisation bonus, but one thing you could do is half-kill all of the fiends (less than half though obviously) and then he could finish them off, which would increase his kill rate. I tried this once with a friend in a similar situation but he was so low leveled compared to me it was hard for us to stay alive, me because I couldn't soul split for health because he took so much longer killing them, and him because there were so many of them to kill. but it might work for you >.> cannoning wyverns is a good source of crimsons, i've heard some people say it's better than using iron / steel titan at waterfiends.
  17. this is asinine I'm trying to imagine the conversation they had when they planned this out, or what they said to the person who had to draft the 'voting page'. How could they possibly have described this so that it sounded like a good idea? "We'd like there to be a really large, gold button with the words 'Vote Yes' on it." "Okay should the other button be silver or something?" "...No" Jagex really likes using incredibly stupid polling techniques. Remember when tip.it had a poll asking users what their favorite features of third party clients were, and the option for switching worlds faster simply wasn't there? and how jagex decided that since people voted, they must not care about being able to switch worlds faster? The only productive thing that could come from this poll would be jagex sifting through the IP addresses that submitted more than a dozen submissions, and banning them, and yes, I do know how futile IP bans are, yet I still say that this is the most productive thing they could do with the information.
  18. This is impossible, you must have a redstone line connected to the track piece you wish to toggle. If you don't want to do that, the best way get around this would be to make the cart stop at the split, and the user someone determine which route to take from there. this could be as simple as having the user have to get out of the cart, break it and put it down on their choice of tracks, or as complicated as having the user be able to press one of two buttons which will then cause a redstone and minecart based mechanism to launch them down their entire route.
  19. got one on my first kill >_> =D it'll be a while before i go back
  20. It's a pretty special, but jagex also hasn't accounted for players that are a high enough combat level, but a low slayer level... I am always told to go to kuradel but obviously can't yet =s
  21. one of the best abilities that could be added to this ring would be the ability to un-enchant it
  22. I've also had ~10k tokens saved up ever since they promised to release it on their youtube page I'm looking forward to this month
  23. I agree. I think he'll realize he wasted too much time in life when his greatest achievement isn't even real. Hi. You have 8 million "unnecessary" xp in runecrafting. Care to explain yourself? Don't say that its because you made runes for "gp", something that isn't even real ;) Actually Runecrafting is the only thing I truly enjoy doing on Runescape as a past time. :) Actually achieving 200m xp in Runecrafting is the only thing I truly enjoy doing on Runescape as a past time. :) It's interesting how because his 'achievement' isn't real it's a waste of time, whereas your source of enjoyment is completely legitimate
  24. players should not have to resort to such measures to ensure that their interactions with other players are balanced gameplay-wise
  25. you don't need mousekeys to fish fast, you can drop a fish every time you catch one
