Moderator Application Discussion Thread - Check your Inboxes
Okay I think we all need to cool down a little bit :wall: To respond to a few of your comments, mario_sunny: Trust me when I say that we do not permit any of our staff members that disrespect other users. If you see it happen, you can't just complain about it and not inform us. We have a lot to do as it is and will obviously not catch every comment made by every staff member. If you see something that stands out to you in a negative fashion, let an administrator know. That way we can actually handle it. If you refuse to inform us, then you really have no reason whatsoever to complain because by refusing to act, you are also letting them get away with it. That's certainly not true. We will not pick our candidates based 100% on the application. There's much more to it than that, and I'm not sure why you thought that is all we would do. We make an effort to study users' behavior, we don't just rely on how well they answer a series of questions. There are just a few specific answers we need to help guide us in our decision making. I think that is a very, very extreme comparison. If someone wears a certain pair of clothes into a restaurant, they will not affect anybody whatsoever. Some people may not like their outfit, but whatever. They're not hurting anybody by wearing it. Denying someone access to a restaurant because of it is a matter of picking and choosing favourites. It's not like we're saying, "You're not using my favourite virus scanner, so we cannot allow you to join the team." If someone joins the moderator team who does not have a secure PC, they put the entire forum and community at risk. You would be surprised at how many people have keyloggers and don't even know it. What happens if we allow someone to join the staff who has a keylogger? Someone gains access to their account, and now they have the power to erase important stickies, guides or blogs that took hours to create. Or they can delete days/weeks/months/years of work off of the Tip.it Website. In fact, if an administrator for example, doesn't have a secure PC and gets keylogged, you may not have a Tip.it to come back to. So much damage could be done and that it's not a risk we're willing to take. --------------------------------------- I hope I didn't come across as harsh, as that was certainly not my intention. I'm just trying to successfully get my point across, in hopes that you will see our side of the situation. In summary, we do care about the entire staff's behavior. If you see an inappropriate post made by a staff member, you're encouraged to let us know. Just because we have opened moderator applications does not mean that we're relying on them to make our decision. It is a much longer and in-depth process than that. And security is extremely important and is not all that difficult to obtain. Download some virus and spyware scanners and make weekly scans. In my opinion, I'd think that people would strive to make their PC secure, whether they're on the staff or not. I can't imagine why anybody would want to have a computer that is unstable or has a serious lack of security.

Enipeus' Blog (1B+ Bank Screenshot)
I'd like to remind everyone that naming names, which includes accusing users of scamming, is strictly against the Tip.it Forum Rules. If you have questions regarding this rule, feel free to contact myself or another administrator. Consider this a universal warning to everyone reading this. I've had to clean this thread easily 4+ times in the past hour or so. If I have to come back here, the offenders will suffer the consequences.

making a quick 400k
Is that an implication that you want to use combat to make 400k? If not, then I would definitely consider making nature runes. You could probably get the 400k in 2-3 hours, after subtracting the cost of pure essence.

Agility
I would recomment the Wildy course. I started using Ape Atoll at level 70, which is what I've seen most people recommend. Brimhaven is pretty slow in terms of xp. The only reason some people use it is to "sneak up on people" on the high score table, or because most people find it to be more entertaining than the other methods.

scamming p mod no lie...i think its a scam
Naming names in a negative light (i.e. accusing someone of scamming) is not permitted. You're welcome to post screenshots of users as long as their usernames are not displayed. I would highly recommend that you report the user to Jagex so they can deal with it.
