does any1 know how to make pictures appear without a link??
Use this code: [img][/img] And make sure that you have not checked the box that says, "Disable BBCode in this post." If that is checked, it will not work.

Being Alone.. how long could you last?
I honestly think I'd do just fine. My views are so different from most of the people that I meet. At times, it's almost a relief to be alone. In the society that we live in, I feel like there are constantly things that I have to do, and I see no point to them. So far my whole life has consisted of building up an education, 7 hours a day, 5 days a week. And for what point and purpose? Most of the information I take in, I will never use in my future. We learn a bunch of stuff, just to forget most of it, so we can get a well paying job and stack up a bunch of little pieces of paper. I've always thought that currency was a strange aspect. Why trade little pieces of paper that say they're worth something, just because they have numbers on them? It makes more sense to me to trade necessities and items that we actually use. So would I survive if all of humanity disappeared except for me? Yes. I would be able to carry out the rest of my life the way I believe it should be lived, without any boundaries or parameters. I would love to carry out the rest of my life in nature, free from the human world of lying, cheating and civilization in general.

Bank Pic Finally updated by Deangut.....
For those of you who don't already know, using excessive nested quotes is against the Tip.it Forum Rules (section 1.2). Please refrain from using them in the future, particularly when it is very unnecessary to do so.

a handful of suggestions
To answer your question about what the point of post count is, we've considered getting rid of it a few times. A poll was taken to view the users' opinions on whether they should stay or go, and majority of our uses voted to keep them, so they stay. And I feel like I've said this a hundred times, but I will say it again: we moderators do not see everything! The best way to speed up the process of getting an inappropriate post/thread taken care of is to report it, which many of our users actually fail to do. Instead of replying to a misplaced/inappropriate thread, just use the report function to inform the moderators of the problem and we will take care of it as soon as we can. No, moderators are not perfect. And there is a lot more to moderating than locking, unlocking, moving and removing threads. Albosky did a nice job of explaining that. No, we are not going to consider people to be staff members because they have a high post count. Does a high post count mean that you are a mature user who can deal with problems and have a descent sense of judgment? No, it does not. In fact, it could even mean that you've posted nothing more than one-sentece replies a couple thousand times. Post count says nothing about who you are as a person, which is what we need to look for in a moderator - not just about how often you post in certain forums. And as I said earlier, your post count isn't even counted in certain forums. So what if someone exists who is "moderator material" but only posts in those forums? Their post count could even be zero. Even if they are eligible, should we not consider them just because they have a low post count? No, they should definitely be considered for who they are, not how many times their replies have been tallied.

Useful information like this would belong on this sticky: Best Place to "harvest" clues lvl 1, 2, and 3. Thank you for your recommendation :)

Contest Subforum?
Well sig battles are kind of contests, aren't they? :-k If we have a subforum for sig battles, I see no reason why we shouldn't include the weekly/monthly contests that we currently have.

a handful of suggestions
I disagree with the whole 1k+ post count and you're considered to be a moderator (for previously mentioned reasons). Also, consider this, there are several forums where your post count is not counted (i.e. Rate This, Blogscape, Forum Games, etc.). What if those are the main forums you visit? Then your post count wouldn't be high at all. This was actually the case with me. When I became a moderator, I only had 150 posts since those were the main forums I visited, so most of my replies weren't even counted towards my post count. Just throwing that out there.

Posting Real Life Pictures
The main reason why I think pictures should be allowed is that I'm sure many of our users have already seen pictures of each other anyway via clan forums, personal websites, etc. So that makes it almost silly not to. But looking at the other side of the argument, my guess is that the safety risk comes from putting together the information. A picture really won't get you very far when it comes to identifying someone. But if you have their picture, name, age and location, it makes them pretty darn easy to identify. Just a thought. But if the rule is going to remain how it is, what's wrong with just PMing someone your picture if you want to share it?

Please set a minimum font size?
I use Safari and haven't found a way to set a minimum size for all websites. I can only set a minimum size for websites that haven't designated a certain font size (so that wouldn't work for Tip.it). If anyone has any bright ideas, I'm all ears! :XD: As long as more people don't start using font size 1 and such, I guess I'm okay with it. It can just be irksome at times to have to highlight, then copy & paste something just to read what it says. So as long as only a select few people do it, it's not a big problem for me.

LOOK HERE FOR TRAINING HELP - LOOK HERE BEFORE POSTING
Pointlessly bumping threads is against the rules. You may only bump a thread if you are contributing to the topic. Either way, this would belong in Player-Made Guides, not General Help & Advice. But I'm sure it'd get locked there too, due to a lack of information/pictures/etc.

Law running.. How should i do it?
There are more efficient ways of making money (like making your own nature runes. That way you get gp AND experience!). But if you wish to do world 66 Fast Free Laws, that's fine too. Go to Port Sarim and bring with you 27 unnoted pure essence. Trade it to one of the users in the red Zamorak robes and they will give you 27 laws and 27 noted pure essence. Return to the bank and turn the noted essence into unnoted essence, then bring it back to the crafters.

holy mother of god!! is this real?!!?
It looks a heck of a lot like a private server to me. Locking it primarily for that reason. If it turns out to be one (which it probably is), then it doesn't need to be discussed as those are against the rules.

bank of banks
Locked~Primarily for spam and flaming. We don't know the extent of the situation (how you got your party hat over to your side account), but transferring items between two accounts is against the rules (by means of drop trading, logging on two accounts at once, etc.).

herb skill
I must warn you, 99 herblore is very challenging and expensive. It requires a fair bit of patience. For now, I'd recommend just buying unids. Identify the ones you can and sell the ones you can't (say like "selling unids over Ranarr" so you can get more profit off of them). Then buy or collect seconds and make potions. Once you can make prayer pots, it gets a little easier, since they're fairly easy to sell. Whenever you can, try to swap potions for ingredients.. It's basically free experience. In terms of cost, I'd say that buying unids and making potions/selling herbs you don't need is your best bet. It's a little slower than just buying specific herbs and making high level potions, but it's not as costly.

herb skill
Well technically the fastest way is to buy the ingredients and make the best potion you can at the current time. Could you tell us what level you are at now? A common method used is to buy unidentified herbs. Identify them and sell the ones you don't want. Keep good herbs like Ranarr, for example, and make prayer potions. Sell them for profit (hopefully) and rinse and repeat! Or you could even grow your own herbs and buy vials/seconds. Herblore is a tricky skill. It's easier to help you if we know what level you are now, what level you want to get, and what kind of budget you have.

More tablet work
I really like all except the sky and the mountains. I think there's too much.. opacity issues on those two. I'd try making the opacity higher and just using darker shades to show shadows, instead of more layers of brush. But I really like how the waterfall and trees turned out! And the lineart on the man looks great as well! Overall, nice job!

Dolphin in Space
The planet was meant to be farther away, but I guess I didn't show that aspect very well :XD: "Dolphins in Space" is actually a very popular theme. Google it, you'll see what I mean :P So I wouldn't consider it that random. I'm thinking of making the dolphin more orangey.. I'll see what I come up with.
