Unbanning possibilites.
What was the evidence? I assume you are not telling the whole truth? Were you advertising websites that sell gp etc?

What would you do?
Give him the pot, but only if he asked nicely.

Is Making a pure a sign of boredness?
I made one because my main at the time (cb 81) was not able to pk effectively. My new main is now cb 82 and has much better stats to play and enjoy the whole game including wildy/barrows/TT hunting as well as skilling. Essentially my first character gained 4.4M experience figuring out the many aspects of the game, while my current one with 19.8M exp (ex 1 def pure, now 45 def) is a well rounded one built to pk as well as play the game the way I want to. I never made a pure to make cash, I made one to pk effectively and have fun in wildy, rather than die without a chance. I still die very regularly on my current character, but at least I know I have a chance :)

How did you make money as a newb?
Same here. First real dose of coins came when I started range training on hill giants. I banked the bones and got my first 1M doing this. Squandered it away eventually, but got a much larger injection of cash through hunter which today is still my fallback money maker when I run out (which I inevitably will!)

How much Richer would you be?
I alch anything worth 300gp+, as I never buy nats, only collect them (Got over 1k of em in the bank from this) I also never leave coins as a drop unless my inventory is full of other stuff worth more than the lump of gold (rarely happens, maybe only when killing drags)

Fire giants.
Freeze/thaw. I killed over 8000 fire giants training range to 92, and got zero dragon drops. Plenty of rune drops tho, and have 100k fire runes still to use up!

Best and Worst Places in All of Runescape.
Durial is the Fally Massacre guy. :shock: Unless the 130+ monsters to slay you were talking about are players you're talking about the lv100+ Slayer Master =p oops, I did mean the Lost City dude, Chaeldar - after reading axeman Jack's guide, I guess I just had Duradal stuck in my head! Duradel sounds like Durial if you ay it fast enough ;)

Best and Worst Places in All of Runescape.
Best place/time - talking to Durial, coz it means I'm about to get another 130+ monsters to slay! worst - W2 Fally - sooo lagggy but I have to go there from time to time to buy stuff.

Pure question
Fleshies on level 2 of SS are also excellent for training on if you dont have prayer. Experiments are better though if you dont mind getting the 11 prayer.

Thoughts about the digital economy.
The problem stems from a variety of sources, notably alching. There are many 99 fletchers out there who made/strung yew longs or mage longs which have been alched into new currency. There is no money sink greater than construction, yet the money coming in is far greater than the money sink of construction. Sure there are bannings of players with phat sets occurring at times, but this will still not offset the alching. Exact numbers are hard to conjure up, only Jagex could know for sure how much dough is coming in vs going out. MTK is also a money sink, albeit one that gathers raw goods cheaply - nevertheless one that makes gp dissappear - 75k per day from every player who maxes out MTK is still a small number compared to the alchers. Alching is the number 1 curse for inflation in RS, and one way to stem it is to make nat crafting harder, more costly, and hence less profitable to alch, making teleing the most cost effective method to raise mage. I doubt the rants board could handle the influx though!

"God Wars Dungeon" advertisement
Nice find, looks like its multi-combat which will be great for chinchompas use if there is a safe spot :)Even if not, it looks like its going to be an awesome spot to train at, and a whopper demon to top it off, ahhh cant wait!

p2p range w/ accumulator
Experiments, fire giants (better with 70+ range though), black knights, ankous, rock crabs are a few to sink your arrows into :)

Where do i use red chinchompas? (besides ape atoll)
Castle wars is fun too, find a hoard of peeps and let rip :)

How many chins needed for 220k xp?
You will need around 2k chins, and it will take about 1.5 hours at your range level. You wont be able to last 1.5 hours with 13 prayer pots (3), more like 30 minutes max. I suggest taking 2 sharks max, a teletab, greegree, an anti-pot, and the rest 4 dose prayer pots to maximise your stay in the tunnel. With the above setup, I can last for 1hr 20 mins at 45 prayer.
-
training range
Picking up arrows ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ lesser demons (will be slow at your level though), ankous on level 3 of security stronghold (good drops but take some lobs as you will not be 100% safe for the first 10 minutes or so), or hill giants (can be crowded, or moss giants on crandor. Power training ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ train on black guards while standing on the edge of the mountain, or on hobgoblins across the water by the crafting guild.

71-75 Range in 1 day?
You will get that in about 3 hours at Monkey Madness island using chinchompas on the skeles in the tunnel (need 4.5k chins and 70 pray pots aswell), OR 11 hours at fire giants. I get around 40k per hour there (92 range though) using iron knives.
-
bow
None of the above! Iron knives at fire giants will get you more exp per hour than any of the above items. If you really wanted to waste arrows though, then msb is the way to go.

A Twist on Suggestions
Things I don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t want to see: Uber melee weapons without compensation for mages. Increased graphics/updates causing lag. Things I want removed: 4 specs on the DDS ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ reduce it to 3 or 2 just for S&G ;) All bots ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ ahhhhh that feels better. Then all randoms! Then remove the scammers/auto-typers ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ the peace and quiet, just imagine. Then remove the ability to pj/tag in non-multi wilderness. Now remove the ditch :) RS would be a much better place if those things were removed, at least for a few days anyway til the bots came back.

Money, crafting and alching.
There is often plenty around ranging in price from 1400gp for untanned to 1700gp tanned. You wont be making a profit buying them, but the loss is minimal imo for the quickest crafting exp out there.
-
Good Source of $$$?
Dragon imps are easy to catch, particularly now that the rush has ended meaning many empty worlds. I usually find one every 2 or 3 worlds I hop to. Nothing of great value is dropped by them except the dragon arrows/heads which can net you 1.5M if you are lucky. Don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t expect to get many arrows though, all up I have scored 450 or so arrows from about 40 dragon imps.

Pure with Red Chins
With your low prayer, PC will be the most efficiant use of your chins. Either that or find bunches of kiddies in catle wars :)

Question: Least-Admirable Skill Cape
Least admirable would be cooking. At a glance everyone assumes a 99 cook just bought a heap of sharks and went nutso for a week or so. HOWEVER, a 99 fisher and cooker would be very respectable indeed, just its hard to admire it at a glance. To me, the most respected 99̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s are smithing, mining and runecrafting. Sure you can buy smithing/runecrafting to a degree, but it still take an enormous amount of time to get it as mass supplies of smithing materials just aren̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t around these days.

Should there be an EXP highscores or F2P highscores?
One more tab that ranks total experience would be enough. To differentiate between F2P and P2P is quite pointless imo. I made it into the top 20k in range in F2P, and had no desire whatsoever to know how I ranked against other F2P players ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ to do so seems to be making statistics just for the sake of it.

Clan Chat: Expectations and Potential Problems
If its not F2P, then Jagex have missed the boat completely. Most clans war in F2P at some point which is when the chat will be required the most.

Rannars and the price increase, why?
Prayer pots are one of the lowest level pots to make that actually make decent money, hence the demand for them is higher than any other herb. The pots get gobbled up fast, and with more and more hard monsters to kill for decent drops ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ more pots are required. High demand = high price. I expect to see them rise higher if anything.
