It seems that many people think that all poor English is attributable to poor grammar, which is false. Grammar is not an umbrella term that defines language proficiency and correctness, but rather the rules of the language per se. So, using 'barrow' instead of 'borrow' is not a mistake of poor grammar, but poor word choice/spelling. Phrases such as 'Where your house?' is poor grammar, as it misses the 'is' between the first and second words, thus violating a rule of the language. By my experience, errors in punctuation, spelling and word choice (vocabulary) are more prevalent than those in grammar. Apostrophes, for example, are misused so incredibly often, becoming a self-propagating vicious cycle. As people start to see misused apostrophes more and more often, they start to develop a thinking that they are actually being used correctly. This is much like how the word 'awkward', which originally meant positioned in a wrong direction, had its meaning replaced by 'weird' through persistent misuse. While mistakes such as using 'their' instead of 'they're', 'your' instead of 'you're', and 'its' instead of 'it's' (and vice versa) are indeed commonplace, I must say that the most common mistake is the use of apostrophes in pluralization. It is quite incredible how many people think that words that need to be pluralized by adding an 's' suffix require an apostrophe in front of it. Things like 'nature's', 'PK's', 'dragon's', 'Tokkul's', 'Kyatt's', 'Lvl's' and even 'thank's' all perpetrate this atrocity. No doubt not everyone is a native speaker of the language, and indeed not all native speakers are as proficient or intellectually capable as one would like them to be. One can only try to use perfect English everywhere, and hope that these intellectual advertisements suffice to lure the wayward to the brighter side. It is perhaps a futile hope. I have yet to see anyone on TIF use flawless English all the time.

RCing at lvl 91+ is 900K-1M/hr, which is the fastest method of the above four, which will hence get you 100M the fastest.

I think the question of when to use piety should not hinge on the profitability of the task, but the amount of time it saves. Piety speeds up non-cannon tasks by about 25%, so you 'gain' 15 minutes every hour. Since the additional prayer potions will cost about 80K/hr (depends on prayer level and bonus of course), if you can make in excess of 320K/hr you should piety. This assumes that moneymaking is a worthless activity, which is usually not the case, since for example RCing gives you xp. The less worthless the moneymaking activity is, the lower the income threshold for which using piety becomes worthwhile. For major cannon tasks like bloodvelds and dagannoths, you get only about 50% of the xp from meleeing. This means that piety will only speed up your slaying by some 12.5%, so if you can make 640K/hr or above you should use it.

I always watch what I type in game as many things can be (deliberately) misconstrued. 0 mutes and 0 blackmarks in all my years of playing.

You certainly can't get anywhere close to 190K xp/hr at 89 and 330K xp/hr At 89 you can get just over 100K/hr while at 99 the max is around 150K/hr

Nothing entirely groundbreaking, but I must say it is a very concise and readable guide Three things: 1. Draynor is spelt wrongly 2. Karamja is spelt wrongly 3. It is actually faster to go to the Ape Atoll spot via the traditional Daero > Waydar > Lumdo way, since there is much less of a walk this way.

I haven't tested barbarian fishing since the update but they ought to be slower now, not faster. 38K/hr for barbarian fishing prior to the update is certainly lower than the true value. 50K/hr was easily obtainable, and it maxed at about 60k/hr, disregarding all the bonus xp you get. Now that fishes are cut-x, it might be conceivable that it is better to just drop them and use feathers to fish instead of cutting them.

Search until you get it. The fact that you have already failed on a particular urn does not mean that your chance of subsequently succeeding is adversely affected.

You have quite a low thieving level and hence only have to go past a few rooms, which might explain why.

1. Go as light as you can. Personally, I wore the following: Full larupia (weightless, and provides defense bonuses), Glory amulet (for teleports), spottier cape, Pharaoh's scepter (quick teleport to the mummy, I used whenever charged to cut down on game transition time), boots of lightness, barrows gloves (use penance if you have) and ring of life (not needed, but better than nothing I suppose. For inventory, 8 doses super energy, 12 doses super anti-poison, 2 bunyips and 15 monkfish. Of course, depending on your level and plundering style, you may need a slightly different setup, so you should fine-tune it as you become more experienced. 2. Yes, and as stated above, 15 monkfishes will usually suffice for 2 bunyips (roughly 1.5 hours). 3. Yes, but as the doors will change too quickly, it is best to thieve alone or with a few experienced friends. 4. I haven't seen any on TIF. I don't think a guide is essential at all, but if you wanted to you could easily Google for it. Have 200M thieving xp, hope that helped.

You need around 12M xp to get from level 74 to 99, and to get it in 48K chins you need to get 250 xp for each one. While this is attainable at level 99, it cannot be possible here considering that you are starting from such a low level. So, you should either start chinning from a higher level of say 83, or get around 10K more chins.

Out of those 3, green dragons, although making nats with just 44 RC would probably be faster.

There isn't such an official terminology, but from the definition of blunt, you could consider all weapons with an option to crush to be such. Meaning warhammers, battleaxes, granite mauls, godswords, maces, spears, greataxes, flails, anchors and perhaps some more.

All dragons, even the leather ones, are weak to stab. For decently high leveled dragons, meaning steels, miths, blacks and KBDs, you are better off using a stab weapon. Unless you are willing to fork out for a Vesta's Longsword, you are best off using the LBS. Spears cannot be used for obvious reasons.

Either you accidentally missed out on a piece of void, you are using long ranged, you aren't following the guide properly, or the guide itself is bad. 140k/hr with red chinchompas is easily attainable even for lvl 70s

In that case the guide(s?) is wrong. You need 66 magic to enter the Mage Guild, says so on the kbase http://www.runescape.com/kbase/viewarti ... le_id=2142

I think it is worth mentioning that the quest is ideally not done on a full world as there are likely to be many people chinning/bursting/barraging in the dungeons. Not exactly a quest-related tip but I've seen plenty of people get OHKOed by the skeleton masses.

You should get it. It doesn't take very long to obtain, and even though you're only getting level 80 you will eventually need it for 99 anyway.

Kyatt, not Graahk, is the fastest way to make pouches.

Magic prayer doesn't help at all. You should be ranging it at melee range with protect from melee on, so the KBD hits you less with the dragon breaths. Since you'll be only be hit by the breaths, melee defence is unnecessary, and hence the anti-fire shield works better (as it doesn't adversely affect ranging unlike it's more expensive counterpart).

Done in Paint, used tip.it's map

Equipment would be: Full void Fury God cloak/Accumulator/Fire cape Unholy Book Ranger boots/Snakeskin boots Ring of life (very important especially for those new to chinning) You certainly need far more than 20K chins to get from 80 to 99. I'm not entirely sure if xp per grey chinchompa : xp per red chinchompa ratio remains constant at lower levels, but based on my calculations at level 99 grey chinchompas are more efficient unless you can make in excess of 1 million gp/hr. If you chin as efficiently as you could, using eagle eye prayer if possible, then I estimate the following amounts of chinchompas would be needed: 80 - 95: 44K 85 - 95: 35K 90 - 95: 20K I don't think there are any chinning guides on TIF so you should probably search YouTube for some. Hope that helped.

It is definitely not two times faster; it is more like 30%. But yes, graahk crafting with duelling ring > abyss crafting with abyssal familiars.

I think there are at present much bigger aspects of poor English than spelling, such as grammar and even punctuation. It is quite horrifying to see how often people use concocted meaningless phrases such as 'could of' (it should be could've, or could have), or mix up words such as your with you're and there with they're. Misuse of punctuation and especially apostrophes are also very widespread, such as 'buying nature's' and even 'thank's'. Of course, poor spelling is a problem, and if the community's proficiency in spelling is improved then the problem would be ameliorated. While there are potential problems that may be brought about by a spell checker, I think they are not significant enough and are hence overridden by the potential gains. So, the issue for me is whether or not the technicians are willing to spend the time (and resources?) to install such a feature.

Under the clan option for Edit Profile, the text reads: The correct spelling is separate (quite a commonly misspelled word). In any case, a more grammatically correct version would be:
