I never intentionally steal other people's arrows and if I accidentally pick up someone else's I return them. I used to like the King's Training Centre but it has become a den of thieves, liars and pranksters so I never go there anymore. It was bad enough when people stole your arrows, but now they steal your drops and lock the door on you if you try to retrieve your own stuff. I never talk with these people because I have nothing good to say to them. For whatever reason, that really makes some of them angry. Of course, if they resort to swearing or cursing, I report them.

I hate it when people close the door as I'm trying to go through it and keep slamming it shut. It doesn't really do anything, because I have a fast internet connection and can usually get through in a couple of tries, but is certainly annoying. I can only imagine how frustrating it might be for those people on a dialup or very slow connection...

My range is 78 and I have only ever hit 18s. The 1/4 rule says I should hit 19.5 so I question whether or not it is correct.

Start by making a simple class for the SavingsAccount. In your Main create an array of 20 of those classes. Your class methods will include (beside the constructor) CalculateMonthlyInterest, PrintMonthlyInterest, GetInterestRate, ShowReports (print accounts to screen), SaveReports (save accounts to file) and a method to ask the user for all the information needed to create a savings account. I would keep the InterestRate as a class variable as well as all of the other information needed for a savings account. The constructor should set the initial value of the InterestRate and set the other variables to a known state (null or zero). This assignment is really a trivial programming task but if you don't know C++ it could be rather difficult to implement it correctly.

I've been playing RS for over a year on the Mac with either Firefox or Safari and my choice of browser is based on several different things: the version of the browser and the operating system version. Here's a summary of what I found that worked: FF 1.0.7 works with OS 10.3.9 FF 1.5.0.2 works with OS 10.4.5 Safari works with 10.4.5 FF 1.5.0.3works with 10.4.6 Both browsers have weird problems with different version of the OS (and the Java version used by that OS. Jagex has announced (May) that RS will soon work with sound in FF.

For web programming I like Perl and javascript. For ActiveX programming I like Microsoft Visual C++ or Visual Basic. For application programming I like C++ or java. For cross-platform programming I like java. For shell programming I like the Bourne or Bash shell.

IE has many java issues, not the least of which is a memory leak. Swiftswitch is affected by this problem because it is built on IE (using VB). The longer IE, or products built using it, are open (in memory) the worse the problem gets until, in the worst case, you have to kill the process and restart the browser. Usually it just gradually slows down everything you do using more and more resources until it can't continue to run. Firefox is not affected by this problem but it does have its own set of odd behaviors nsuch as once RS has loaded the keyboard input does not move its focus correctly. There are other problems relating to redrawing the active window as well. Because both Sun java and Firefox are open source there is a very active community working to identify and fix reported problems. I would like to see an application, like SwiftSwitch, based on Firefox because it could be used on multiple platforms such as Windows, the Mac and various Linux and Unix flavors.
