Look at it this way. Look at a grey paper and a white paper, then look at a black paper and a white one, which of the two have a larger contrast? If you experience something worse before it gets better, you will recieve the improvements with more gratitude. Not saying that any of this is true though, just explaining why they would do it ^_^

I actually thought Hunter was pretty fun... Anyway, what I think that a skill needs is variety in training ( Noone wants a skill where you have to level from <70 to 99 with one viable option ). Which is why I think slayer is a good skill. It needs lots of uses, both for other skills and in combat. It shouldn't be all that repetive to train, you're not fooling anyone if you're making a skill where you have to stand still and automatically work logs with a knife and try to make it 'fun'. Above all, it needs to be fun. I won't train runecrafting because it isn't fun.

Brick walls don't say stupid things though. well excuse me for basing a logical argument around mathematical statistics since i'm simply a brick wall who says stupid things why don't you come stand next to me while i topple over onto you or you can do this :wall: and try to beat good math sense into your heads Good math sense? My math sense is fine, I assure you. You have already stated that you would refuse to sell a 500M item at the GE price if the GE price is 100M. If you will not take a 400M loss to sell your good, why should ANYONE take this loss? Junk trading is not the only way of moving goods around. Bounty Hunter trades and other "accidents" by Jagex allow you to move money fairly safely to people in a trust trade. Admittedly, trust trades are not pleasant, but it's better than a 400M outright lost. Also, why should they sell them in the GE instead of to their friend? Let's see, I can lose 395M... or I can lose 400M and sell the item to my friend, who may be willing to repay me if he or she has a chance Corrupted Morrigan's Javelins say hi. You are being silly. I suppose that's a better word than "stupid", but you still fail to see there is no incentive to use the GE for items that are horribly underpriced. i never said i wouldn't sell a 100m item with a 500m street value on the g.e. if it was stagnant i would sell it if it was rising i would wait for it to peak, and then sell it and how many times do you have to be told that there isn't a loss you're simply not liquidating junk by using the g.e. you're selling it for the same price as you would in a junk trade minus the junk it's not a loss at all, in fact a 100m item would be 5m gain the incentive is in that 5m you obviously do not have good math sense if you can't realize that liquidation and profit are two entirely different things Umm... I just wanted to put my imput in here, and I have seen all the comments about you so I probably won't reply back if you do intend to reply to this post That being said, Why would anyone with a sane mindset sell an 500m item for 100m if you can trade it safely, unnoticably and pretty much unreportable for the 500 m that it is actually worth. Junktrading is a product of a failed system, nothing more, nothing less. I do not obey a microwave if it doesn't toast my bread properly. I do not prefer a broken and rusted bicycle that has been bought from a store over a nice clean bike that has been bought from a friend. I do not try to make the masses obey me, for I am just one man, and one man can't do much without the support of many. The masses prefer to have profit over having a halo above their heads, you will not pursuade the masses if you make their profit less. Hence, you won't get support to obey the slow and hole ridden GE over a nice and easy profit on the big time merchanters. That would be all, thank you for reading this post and please, don't reply with intend to bring me down, reply with intend to come up with idea's beyond trying to make the mass obey, reply with intend to reason, reply with the intend to make friends, or don't reply at all. ( yes I have just seen an Obama speech, why do you ask? )

That's because it's possible to use damn and suck and the other words they uncensored without it being a sexual nature. Bra, on the other hand, is directly tied to things of a sexual nature. No pun intended. You have to know that bra equals good in swedish, aka rather annoying for them. Although I don't mind the less strict censor ^_^. And ofcourse the varrock/ge teleport change. I think this is the first of many of these wonderfull tiny yet amazingly helpfull updates. And I like it ^_^

The ones who report you for censored out words ( That, like usually, aren't even offensive ) then follow you saying that they will be a pmod thanks to my 'stupidity'. Ty and Gf :P People who still do single nature crafting for money ( seriously, even aviansies is better money <_< ). People who train a time consuming, boring out of your skull-skill to 99 to get the "nice rc cape" from a random stranger every once in a while. Honestly... doing the same thing over and over for over 200 hours or more to get those kind of comments. OMG -.- . People who only use melee in dueltournaments. Pkers afking, nuff said. I'll stop now before I gets into trouble.

After the "The world is about to end" signs, they needed something new. aaaaanyway, even though sailing would be awesome, everyone is way too hypey about every single thing JagEx says or does. Relax dudes.

The one who ratted out SixFeetUnder was banned too wasn't he?

its when you smoke alot ;) 110+ Combat (no summon) with a 90+ melee combat skill. 1700+ total ('cause lets face it, not everyone's rich enough to train some) 80+ non combat skill (excluding fm/cooking/fletch) 250+ Quest Points. 8-) To be quite honest you don't even have to smoke more then 3 breaths in order to get stoned. But thats just me. Anyway, 115+ combat 1900+ Total level ( Rediculous if you want 2300 total, thats just in sane ) 80+ non combat, it means you can do probably everything in the skill already, except for that lone high item. Maxed quests, its not that hard. Atleast some minigames mastered, Like barbarian assault or Chompy hunting.

Tell that to the people who have millions of eyes of newts, the people who have botted to 99 combat stats in PC and the people who have fished food for a month and have gotten 99 fishing and + 20m cash. Sure, people do get banned, but if they are as ridiculously easy to detect as you make them out to be, why are these people not banned? The only reason why you do not notice them is because a lot of the RWTers are gone and without easy methods of transferal most have left cheating. If you believe otherwise then be my guest, but a simple search will yield proof. I've had multiple friends who have tried macroing with a high level account, and they were all banned within a week. I base my opinion not just on sheer facts, but on experience too. And for that matter I have had a lot of experience with people trying macroing, all banned, or perm muted.

Will make the monotone afkable skills less monotone ^_^

I am glad they are going to update the outdated parts of runescape. Because who seriously still does Salarin the Twisted? Or Mining for money in members for that matter. There's just too many outdated bits, and I don't mind a usefull mining/thieving/agility/firemaking/woodcutting/smithing/crafting/runecrafting/fishing/cooking/hunter/slayer update.

they are not easy to detect in the slightest! maybe the auto typers are stupidly easy to catch but a proper bot unless you can report it to jagex is really hard to catch Bots are rediculously easy for them to detect. Period. I can garantee you that if you use a bot for three days (not even for that long ), be it something as stupid as cabbage picking, you will get spotted and banned for macroing.

I agree! Making the game better is so bad! Seriously, why would we report people and make the game better wtf that makes no sense at all@@@ /sarcasm. Like I said before, you shouldn't be worried, maybe he'll learn his lesson and play the game fair. I have one point to make though, many people in this topic compare this situation with like driving drunk or taking drugs. Seriously, that has nothing to do with it. Driving drunk or taking drugs is the same situation but have different impacts. They are dangerous, I don't see anything dangerous about macroing so just stop comparing those two. You did the right thing. And did your friend get banned or do you have any news about it already? What impact does it have, other then this kid macroing he would have maintained; a social life > gaming on rs. Whilst getting mediocre(sp?) stats. To be honest, I have no problem with somebody mac'n 99 melles an dominating me, no problem someone macroing 99 thieving and becoming super rich. It was more noticable in RSclassic the effect it had, I don't see how it matters as much these days. People will play as much as someone macro's now, so what's the difference? I come back to my original argument, people stand by Jagex like what they say is the LAW of society, when it is a game, in games people cheat don't matter what it is. I give up. :wall: That is very true, people will ALWAYS try to cheat in games because they want a lot of things, on an easy way. And if you are a gamer with a grain of respect, you will report anyone trying to cheat, friend or not. .... Riiiight, just drag the whole real gamer community through the dirt, we don't mind <_< . If you are a person with any sence of dignity, humility and loyalty, you wouldn't backfire on your friends. Simple as that. There, that totally made my point clear, Didn't it? The fact is that this is just a game. If you want to ruin something invaluable as a friendship over a system that doesn't even require your help to function, you are in my opinion one of those 'rat' gamers that would backfire on your friends in the wilderniss "Because there is no rule against it". And if you are upset about the fact that people got a thieving cape or whatever faster then you for whatever reason, then I welcome you to the hundreds of people with a thieving cape. In this game you are nothing but a number, a variable, you don't even own your account. Jagex does. And you value that above a friend. In this game, snitchers will be snitchers, and honest loyal people will always get the consequences. So don't quote me, neither me or you are convincable because we are stubborn. I know I am.

Hmmm, glad that you're sharing your tricks. Very helpfull ^_^

But what is the huge difference between telling them your going to report them and then reporting them and not? The difference is that the friend has an oppertunity to halt his 'evil' actions, before being sentenced life.

Actions in video games and other relaxed mediums are indicators of someone's true personality when their actions have no real world consequences. ? He means that games like Runescape show someones real personality, because they can do whatever they want since there is noone condemning them. As in, you can report someone all you like, because you won't get beat up by him. You can scam all you want, because the person in question won't come hunt you down ect.

Its common sence to not report your friends/family to authority's. Unless he/she is out for murder or whatever. I for one would not report my friend to the cops because his bicycle lights are broken. He did not hurt anyone with macro'ing, and certainly not his friend. So why would you report him? Besides, reporting really isn't that helpfull since macro software really easily gets spotted these days anyway. One final word of advice: If you value the authority's above your friends, you will only have the authority as a friend in the end.

How can you not find mining boring? It says that the most efficient way to train mining would be to mine iron from 15 ALL THE BLOODY WAY to 99. With no massive reward. Sorry fella, but from looking at your signature which says 72 mining ( which corresponds to only one thirteenth of the way to 99 ) I don't think that you even know remotely how boring mining is. Its like runecrafting in slowness, only gives you less money. Its like firemaking in attention needed, only takes way longer. Its like woodcutting in tediousness, only that you can't talk to people since you have to click on ores all the time. Mining is an obsolete, boring skill that needs to be updated. Period.

there's no hellkitten in the game window. Can I has cookie nao?

Hmm, lets break this chain of insolence and constant quoting of the epic lol post ( Even though I loled like hell on it ) I myself have devised a theory before the tzhaar got their graphical 'frog' update, but those files 1. got deleted during the TiF whipeout and 2. are unfortunally erased from my computer. -Edit- found it, its in the hide tags. [hide=introduction][ TzHaar: Perhaps the biggest reference ever? Or Chaosvuistje: The biggest nutcase ever to log in on Tip.it Forums? --Warning, very long read.-- --Warning #2, lots of pictures --Warning #3, big speculation thread, those without imagination should be wary --Warning #4, lots of spoilers on the movies Aliens vs Predator, and Aliens vs Predator 2 Ive done some research on TzHaar and Predators before, twice, TvP, TvP2. Now, with the upcoming updates to TzHaar, Im back to lunge at the booze and try to make this article even more convincing (or at least entertaining :P ) Ive tried to use less vague pictures in this topic then my previous one. I hope they will suffice. First up, a tiny introduction about the two races. TzHaar, from Runescape - Habitat: Jungle, Deep under Karamja volcano. - Lifestyle: Fighting and hunting - Highest priority: Honour, Predator, or Yautja, From the Alien/Predator/AvP series. - Habitat: Jungle, temple built deep under Antartica - Lifestyle: Fighting and hunting - Highest priority: Honour. Now, onto comparing stuff. [hide=Minigames][Fight Pits. A sport among the TzHaar and Humans where they kill each other for TokKul and fun. Viewing orbs and Viewing device comparing: In the movie AVP, the Predator used this device to see if there were any enemies in the temple. In Runescape, they are used to look at fights and spot enemies. Also, the fight pits end in the same way as the Predators in AvP1 did. By getting overwhelmed with monsters and dying because of them. Fight Caves. This resembles the first hunt a predator must pass in order to be accepted into the Predator culture. When you kill the Jad, you will do a cheer emote. This might be a spoof to where a predator survived his trial. In fact, Predators often show off their prized kills by holding them up high in the air.][/hide] [hide=Tzhaar Npcs.][TzHaar-Xil, the agile hunter. Both using the rings as the TzHaar swords and knives. You might have notices the TzHaar-Xil go up into their environment very well, Theyre nearly unspottable, but still seeable. Predators have a cloaking device, they can cloak most of their body, but you can still see them, like the TzHaar-Xil. They use their rings both ranged-wise and melee-wise. Like the shuriken in the first AvP movie. Used both to shred through an alien head melee wise, and against the Queen ranged-wise. The highest ranked TzHaar are the TzHaar-Mej, They watch over the pits and the caves, and guide the TzHaar. Something similar in rank would be an Elder predator, which has done many fights and hunts. And is considered an expert at leading. TzHaar-Mej use a two handed staff. And they use them with both magic and melee. Strange that some Npc uses one weapon for two combat techniques. And there arent that much two-handed staffs around. The favourite weapon choice of a skilled Predator is the staff/spear, since it can do serious damage. Their magic attack is a massive blast of heat from far away distance, and a less big heat blast if nearby. Pretty much like a plasma caster, which Predators often charge if prey is far away. TzHaar-Ket are the big guardians. The ones wearing the most armour and the ones with the most strength. They are like the predators in AvP1. Which are all heavily armed, more so then most other predators, who only use a small amount of armour. Tz-Kih are the only flying TzHaar creatures. They could be compared to facehuggers, the only flying Alien( leaping, flying.. whatever floats your boat. ). In the fight caves guide, they are advised to be killed first. Pretty much like the Facehuggers. Since once they hit you, its game over. Tz-Kek, the clump of lava. Once you hit these with melee, you are bound to get hurt, like alien blood. The Acids in alien blood are able to burn through any organic matter and some metals. Also, once you kill one, two other small ones burst from the dead carcass. Chestburster anyone? Tok-Xil, this big guy has a powerful dart attack. The only reference I could find in him was that the darts look similar to the shot-gun like spear gun, which fires multiple darts at prey. Ket-Zek, the big frog with a charmander tail. Seriously shouldve gotten a more fearsome look <_<. Opinions aside. Ket-Zek use their tail to throw fire at you. Raise your hand if you think this is a reference to the alien who had his tail cut and used it to fling its acid blood at the Predator. *raises hand* Yt-Hurkot, the guys who help the big daddy out of trouble when going gets tough. These guys heal the Jad in a group after he is down to half HP. In AvP1, the tied Queen cries out for help, and other aliens sprint towards her. They free her from the chains she was tied in and Queen was good to go to mess up the Predators who did this to her. When they heal a light comes from above, like the light the last-standing Predator was in AvP1. TzTok-Jad, the creature that showed me whos boss 13 times. Make no mistake, this is the strongest and biggest TzHaar creature there is. The most prized for any TzHaar to kill. If you look at its design youd think you would be claimed a madman for comparing it to the Alien Queen. Im willing to try just that though. Not only is the Alien Queen the strongest and biggest Alien around, and obviously the most prized to kill for any Predator, it has some similar features to the Jad. Like his Melee attack, it pounces its head at you, just like the Queen did towards a water tank in AvP1. Both the Jad and the Queen have 3 [bleep]es on either side of their back. The Jad dies in pretty much the same way as the Queen did in AvP1, where if falls down, grasps the ground, bites one more time and splashes down in the water. Now if you swap splash of water with a splash of fire, youve got the same death sequence. Obsidian golem, an upcoming summoning creature. Ive tried hard to look for a reference here, since it does not lie in the looks of the creature itself, but the fusion of two others. Consider the picture below. Compared to. Oh yes, in my view, the PredAlien reference is coming to Runescape. And it better be powerful alright :P][/hide] [hide=Weapons and Armour.][The TzHaar and Predator have very simular equipment. A two handed staff: A knife: A throwing ring/disk: And both of their primary weapons, the sword for the TzHaar and wristblades for the Predator, have two very long blades. The colour of the TzHaar sword varies from most of the other weaponry. It being grey/metallic and the others more red/black. The fury amulet has a red light emitting from it. No other obsidian jewelry has this. And it is used to maximize the accuracy from your attack. Quite similar to the laser emitter on the Predators helmet. Which tracks prey down automatically. The berserker necklace has beads similar to the skulls on a Predators necklace. The more skulls on a Predators necklace, the more experienced he is with his weaponry. Hence why the Berserker necklace boosts the effectiveness of TzHaar weaponry. The ring of stone requires a bit of depth. When a TzHaar dies, he solidifies, in other words, he turns to stone. The Self-destruct mechanism on the Predators is in that way similar to the TzHaars Ring of stone. As it both kills the owner. The fire cape, worn by the best of the best, the mightiest of the mightiest. Strangely enough the only predator ever seen with a cape was an Elderpredator, which is the mightiest, and it was red. The Bracelet of Regeneration makes sure you have double the amount of hp healed compared to normal conditions. Incased in a Predators bracelet are medkits, which make wounds heal much faster.][/hide] [hide=Samuel Scourduel Part II references.][ Probably a reference to the way Predators treated the Mayans, as cattle. Predators can use the language of humans too, although it isnt perfect english, often mixing both their languages and English when talking to humans. Reference to the steam/gas vents in the predator ships. they know nothing of crime, honour stands above all other virtues. Do I really need to explain that this is exactly like the Predators? Grand hall, like this? ][/hide] [hide=Random references, not able to place them in any Category][TzHaar death, They fall to their knees and their arm rest on one of their knees. Could be compared to a Predator setting off their self-destruct mechanism TzHaar death > This picture can be compared to the cloaking device malfunctioning. The egg chamber, a massive nest, currently closed off to all Non-TzHaar. Perhaps the breeding place for future summoning pets. Let hope these dont lunge towards you and impregnate you with icky creatures. TokKul, the coins for the TzHaar, are made of their ancestors or kills. They symbolize honour, like skulls Predators collect to gain honour.][/hide] [hide=conclusion]This is by far the most researched reason on the subject: what TzHaar are, that Ive seen. Mainly because there werent that much researches. Some big ones like the topic of the meaning of TzHaar words deserve my respect as they have researched very well. Obviously I waited a long time to post this, since there are a lot of TzHaar updates in near future, it is time to put this theory to the test. Now, what this topic is about, is what if this is true, what if TzHaar are indeed a reference to the Yautja, what updates could we expect? F.A.Q Do you have a life? No Is there any reason for making this topic? Lack of interesting topics :P Your looking into this way too much! I decide how I play a game and how I waste my time thank you Why would Jagex ever make a huge species like the TzHaar a reference to a movie? Because they can, and there were no obvious races left, like the lizardmen and the orcs. So please, dont resort to these kind of replies. Ive seen enough of that. ©TzHaar belongs to Jagex Ltd. Aliens versus Predator to Twentieth century fox©][/hide]

Dragon warhammer please ^_^. Special attack ( Thunderclap: Thor's power flows through you, knocking your opponent 5 squares away and stunning them with 50% more accuracy ) Also, bonus against giants and snakes :P

English is easier to learn because of the media. Nearly EVERY media out there is in english, you get confronted with it at an very early age through games, TV and music. I for one am learning Swedish in my spare time, I had to search in order to get a little media to translate from my head. If you are a child and you learn a language, its easy. If you are an adolescent you have to have determination, will and fun in the language you are studying. And for one, a dutch version isn't needed. We have enough dutch people as it is.

Godswords? or Dragon dagger for that matter? If you want to go the special overpowered way, I suggest you take a look at a 30 k weapon which easily specials 60+

Where is that? :oops: Miscelania-Etcetaria

Bravo, very well put =D>
