I rather have all those disadvantages you guys mentioned than a skill in which you can make level 50 armour only at level 90+ ;)

I think you are confusing some other stuff that happened years ago, where they said something like you said. I think it was a bug where training magic suddenly gave defense xp, so all those pure were "ruined" on which jagex replied that they would not roll back those accounts as they found pures not part of their game... but that is quite a while ago...

I am glad that it is only beta and will not be live, when I saw the title I first though "oh no, there goes all that time which they could have spend on new quests and other updates" as they have said multiple times that replayable quests are lots of work to make.

They should rework the skill and base the elite skill on that. Also if they would fix the levels for making things it would already be better. For example make rune level 50 to make and smithing has already more purpose, at least for ironmen and other DIY accounts.

Congrats :D

Firstly, sailing is now really considered? No more april fools sailing jokes? :P Secondly, I now think we will see elite skills before we see a rework of smithing... sadly...

I had one further away, then went on to the next minigame (the pillar-thunder thingy) and it was there lol. Also once had one that was under the main plant, you couldn't even see it.

Someone (either on tip.it or runescape official forums) said that it might have to do with them fixing the bank boosters.

^Yup, both are right :P

So erm, correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't a tagging system work better when the huge crowd is gone?

Since today you can start a game penalty-free (once a day) which is not in the first 20 minutes of an hour.

"Adamant and rune dragons also drop pages of the journal of a Dactyl Dragonkin who continued Kerapac's experiments on metal dragons."

I think, but I am not to certain, to be able to say something about significant results your smallest group needs to have at least a value of 100. In this case, you need to get at least 100 of every charm. Though I am not sure if I say this correctly, as I am basing this on psychology research, in which you want your smallest group to be at least 100 respondents (for a good research).

Also the smithing update, which has already been coming for much longer than construction XD

I don't get why people dislike new skills so much because they will lose max cape. New skills, and new content to the game (if the skills are good though) should be something we would like to have right? That is like saying please add no updates at all, or only small updates otherwise I might lose comp cape (which also seems to happen though... And I find that strange as welll). It is like you people don't want to play a game that will be updated...

Actually I was falsely banned once. Got unbanned 4 hours later, after contacting Jagex. You're one of the lucky ones, though. The problem with identifying real false banned people is that many people that complain that they are falsely banned are actually banned for the real deal... There is no way for us to tell if they have ever botted and thus no way to make statistics out of it.

Nice :D really like this. Just thought of that if this would be a thing when I was part of the (item) crew. The item list would be to large... I had to much time on my hands (and an obsession with the item database in the tiniest details) back then I guess :3 Wish I had that time now... would definite do it again ^_^

Did you delete the jagex cache on your HD (you said folder, but for me it is just a file)? Otherwise try turning off your firewall, or your virus scan and see if it works.

I disagree, someone asking for advice should consider the given advice and thank the persons for giving them that advice, people should however not be obliged to follow the advice. Maybe that was what you meant, but it just sounded weird imo.

200M in all skills is the same as max soul wars point though, as it doesn't unlock new items or content.

So what was supposed to be an upgrade is not really an upgrade...

They are most certainly more important - they are the ones who play the most, have played the longest, and are the life and blood of RS. They aren't the end all and be all, and lower levels deserve some consideration, but not equal consideration. And no, I don't mean to say that if I made an account I'd zoom past through all the levels (of course I would). I was stating that levels, as a matter of fact, are much easier than they were in the past. This is simply reality. Even completely new people who never played before zoom past the lower levels faster than someone like me did because the game has gotten significantly easier. Even playing casually at suboptimal rates, they'll be decently high leveled in no time. They may not be 120 like me, but they'll easily get to 80 something. That's because slayer experience rates (since that's the example you gave) are much faster than than years ago (when I was a low level) when they were like 30-40k/hour. Since the game is much easier and faster, people don't stay low leveled for as long as they used to in the past - that was my point. Therefore it's better to make content that's going to be long-term, since most people are not going to be low leveled for very long. I wouldn't say that either low leveled or high leveled players are more important, I think what would be important is to make updates that won't be dead content, which if done correctly should not be dependent on level.

^So would 200M XP in all skills be one of those reqs?

So what kind of other stuff is left then? Finding all treasure trail rewards, I guess? Getting all specific monster rewards as drops? :P

I seem to have the same problem after beating tusks the second time, even though I think I wouldn't have reached the 100% reward cap in the old system yet...
