um..what. Damis is incredibly easy - i did it on a 1 def pure, no pray.

I can see that there is a fair bit of Bush Bashing and American slanging. This is pretty fashionable in Europe at the moment. I would ask all posters to not do the following when they make comments: Attack American because it is popular too Attack the other countries because you have been taught to fear autocracy, dictatorship or non-democratic forms of government. Democracy is not the only form of Government, it's just the most popular. I advocate niether Democracy nor Tyranny, but remeber, they are different, and not necesarily worse than each other.

I wantss it preciousesss, givess it to meeee. Gollup. Nasty Jagexes, he takesses it froms uss preciousess, but we will getss it, we will. Gollup. And when we hases its...yesssss! Sorry every time some one mentions new magic spells I go Gollumish. I can't wait for that update.

Respond to the topic, not the user. Yea, you really added to the quality of discussion here.

I think yours was closed because you didnt state the objective clearly enough. I hope I have.

No...I quoted directly the questions from that forum that they said could not be answered. It was to emphasise the point that they couldn;t answer them, yet still believed it anyway. It's just a contributing factor to thier overal dumness - it was meant to be a joke - seems to have gone right over both your heads.

so not true. the boyfriend of my sister is persian so i learned pretty much about iran in the last couple of years. Iran was ruled by a pro-west dictator about 20 years ago. In that time religion had much less power. eventually the corrupt Shah was overtthrown in 1979 by the religious leaders of the country. since then Iran is a republic. as an important sidenote, Persians are shiiten, whereas all other moslems are shintoits. (don't ask, what's the differenc, because i don't know.) Iran has a different culture then say the iraq. shintos are mainly Arabs, whereas shiits are Persian. well anyway.. when the shiintos gained power, naturally things changed. probably the most famous is the veil. before that women didn't need to wear one, and it wasn't accepted easily, especially by intelectual women and students. from 1997 till 2005 the president of iran came form the liberal reformer party, but he was unable to set himself through against the since the end of the shah regim strong religious fundamentalists. because of that the current president was elected in a close vote. he (as you know) is known as a religious hardliner, but he was mainly voted (in an election with an noteable low vote turnout) because he addressed the problems of the common people like unemployement and povertry. that's about what i know. bottom line is, that i wouldn't say, that the majority of persian support religious extremists. so back to the actual topic. i believe, that behind americas numerous military activities lies a strong economical motivation. the enormous weapons industry isn't particular uninfluental and every war adds to their budget. there are no shinto's in Iran (well maybe about 3), there maybe a few sunis. I will edit out the part about the majority and say simply strong etreemist support.

Clearly this forum was created by a guy who like laughing at idiots, so created an idiot trap so he could laugh at them all day.

the day i started playing runescape.

I find it very hard to condem people on the basis of a moral right or wrong. According to the morals by which they lived thier life, the act was moral correct for them. However, society cannot accept this act and cannot accept these people's morality, therefore they must be removed from society by either imprisonment, deportment or death. Those within a society must live by the values of that society or they will be removed from it or punished in an attempt to make them live by those values. I personaly would have agreed with lengthy imprisonemnt, and if a reoffence was made, execution.

This was inspired by the post about which you thought was more dangerous - the USA or Afganistan, which can be found here What I am talking about is international relations and politics. Just to make it clear. The question is - is American benign or an international menace in comparison to countrys like Pakistan, North Korea or Iran. This discussion will be given that the following facts are true: There are two main ways in which a country may exert diplomatic or political power - through economic sanctions or through miltary actions (those will be the broad basis of the following posts) Religious involvement is very high in the government of all the countries involved - North Korea has enforced atheism, Pakistan and Iran are both Muslim and America I will explain: Although America does not have a national or enforced religion, Christianity is the most prominient of all the religions. This is not a bad thing in and of itself. What is frightening and disturbing for many independant observers - I am one such person from the UK - is the massive political power the American Christian Right wields - issues like abortion, euthanaisa, organ transplantation, law and order, censorship and even international descisons such as going to war, all are greatly influenced by the American Christian Right. This is disturbing for many people feel, and I am one of them, that politics should be as secular as possible. America posses the current strongest economy (although not the fastest growing), and the greatest military might - the American military budget is greater than the rest of the world's put together. They have more neuclear weapons than anyone else, and the capability to destroy every capital city on Earth in 10 minuites. Although China's standing army is larger than America's (China has one million men in thier standing army) Pakistan has had neuclear capabilities for quite a few years now, and has a reasonably strong military, hardend by border skirmishes with India. The have a very strong muslim presence in thier government. Thier economy is growing, although not nearly as fast as neighboring India - analyst have blamed this on Islamic Conservatism. North Korea is still a dictaorship, and are developing the methods by which they can laucnh neuclear warheads - the experitse to do so was given them by a pakistani professor, who also offered to arm Libya and Iran. They have a reasonably strong military, but not much greater than the average. They have quite a weak economy - in stark contrast with thier southern Neighbor, South Korea, whose economy is growing exponentialy. North Korea are still not part of the UN. Iran is working towards neuclear capability, if it does nto have it already. It has a reasonably strong military, and a democraticly elected Muslim Extreemist governemnt. This suggests that there is at least strong extreemist support in Iran, even if it may not be a majority view. Thier economy isn't much greater than most. I TAKE NO SIDES IN THIS DEBATE, I WANT TO KNOW YOUR OPINION. IF ANY OF THE FACTS I HAVE STATED ARE INCORRECT, PLEASE POST HERE IF YOU CAN SUBSTANCIATE THAT THEY ARE Edits: size of China's army - thanks to darkrick

I like post counts on a mostly irrational basis - and also because the leprechaun in you avatar frightens then hell out of me. Banish the leprechaun, banish it I say!

yea, why do people do that? I only wear boots of lightness when i fish. If you're gunna show off by wearing a phat whilst u fish afk, there gunna be a chance you will lose it

or the "hacker" random event, that strips your bank and steals your account.

speed. Lower levels could not hit very fast (much slower than it is now), then the hiest lvls could hit slightly faster than they do now.

All well and good, but I want's these magics that were promised.

what happened to construction drain? - thats worth at least a couple of bil Shop buying drain - especialy for runes? - probably a few bill too, scince its a major f2p way of gettign stuff. The miscelainia drain too - on the chest. I think it's quite small actualy, but still worthy of notice. And I'd take the calculation with a several oiltankers of salt. However, it is very interesting to see the trend in possible inflation. I would like to see the total gp devided by the number of players, 1) to validat ethe calculation - if it says that each player should have 1bil or 1 gp its clearly off, 2) to see how much wealth there would be per player if it was redistributed, so We can estimate how much the richer players have.

1/10 - just saw you on the TPUM thread

False. TPUM regularly engages in the fascinating hobby of cow tipping.

remeber for ice: you can't use a friend to block anymore his mage will hit through everything except prayer - so dont bother with d hide his mage attack max is 5+5, but his melee max is 30+, so pray from melee. Don;t bother with super restores, normal restores do just aswell - he drops a super restore for the agility boost you need. You cna use any type of cake, not only chocolate, as some guides say make sure your pray doesnt drop, or he can get in a good few 30's before its back up. Pray on the ice trolls as they have max's of 25+ and are painful (+a waste of food)

Argh! Nothing is wrong in and of itself or by its own nature. Please make sure you state clearly that the fact that they are wrong is not a divine ordinace by an unproved God, but only your own opinion. Such absolute statements are firstly missleading and secondly arrogant if they seek to expound the authors view as the only one worthy of adherance by unassailably enshinring thier opinion as fact. It is relative! And that is my opinion. Sorry about the spelling, and this is not a direct attack on you at all, it's just something that annoys me. I find the censors an uneccaray and annyoing inhibition to converstaion and play, but it does save offending some of the older members of the population. Then again, if you can't handle the tempreature, stay out of the Neuclear Reactor.

the more posts someone has gives us an understanding of how long they have been a community member, and thier activity on the forums. This, in turn, gives an indicatiton of trustworthyness and also suggests experience. If they have 7000 posts the haven't been banned, they probably haven't been slated by others or they would have left. They also have experience on these forums, know what people like, know what makes a good post etc. Chicken feathers have a long way to go in understanding these forums, whereas dark wizard robes are much more likley to know what kind of things are more likley to get the right response.
