The servers are most likely run on linux, I think the game is developed on windows though (because most developers know windows better then mac). At least they test it on mac.

Quest Priorities
You only need 65 prayer to use the lamps on prayer, also they give 100k xp (4 lamps so in total 400k xp) not 200k xp. Legacy of Seergaze for the mutated bloodvelds (if you still get those when doing slayer)

What's the fastest way to kill Black Demons? And a RoW question.
As long as no demon is attacking you the canon will attack all the demons (because the demons cannot attack the canon). So it is not a glitch.

New skil idea
I've had that idea for a long time, but I just can't see it working, what would be the point doing the skill, what would be rewarding from it. And we already have tasks :)

Vivid Farm Guide
The knowledge base has many errors in it, so that is not a good source, it should be checked in game.

missing my mummy
http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?rs2quest_id=205 See the mini quest at the bottom. You need lvl 50 magic instead of 45 magic to defeat the last shadow. I had to boost my magic one level because I was level 49 (sorry no pic, did the quest at my gf house). To avoid confusion I would change: "Next, equip your Ring of charos(a) and speak with him." to "Next, equip your Ring of charos(a) and speak with him to get the real mummy's name papyrus." There is also written that you need 2 of the same sq'irk fruits. Which is not true, that is only true for the highest sq'irk fruits.

Legacy of Seergaze
http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?rs2quest_id=187 http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?page=losskeleguide.htm There are differences between the requirements of the normal and the condensed guides (especially the food part is needed at the normal guide) Also why is it named losskeleguide? makes no sense to me. edit: sorry didn't see the other thread on the same page, as it isn't in the quest index thread, feel free to merge them.

Hand in the sand
http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?rs2quest_id=130 It states at the rewards that you get 80 buckets once a day, it should be 84. (got no pic but should be easy to check) Also at tip and tricks there is this written: "f you don't want to do another lantern lens, you can use a sapphire on your bulls-eye lantern to get the lens out of it." It would be nice to say that the lantern lens will be destroyed in the quest. Because that sentence did make me think I could put it back afterwards.

New Monster Drops Listing Method
An unicorn is not members only, it is south of the varrock east mine (there is a bear there too). And maybe on other places like north of barbian village too.

New Monster Drops Listing Method
You did already see that the items database now links back to the monsters that drop an item? Thanks for the reply and the move of my post :) 1-3) How are you (the crew) going to get the feedback from the users? At this topic, a poll or some other way? 4) Thanks :) 5) Ok sounds fair enough. No I didn't see that, looks great :D.

They look really great, except when you zoom into them, they then look really blurred.

Doing very rough math is about 3xp (on average) per produce point. Produce points seem to be 20k an hour atm So tht'd imply 60k mage xp an hour. Probably underestimating. Not really. Looking at 20k an hour roughly rate. 5 hours = 100k 5 hours is like 1 days playtime during holidays, 1.5 days during term/work time (using low play times) So that's 9 - 14 days realistic non-no-lifing play time. 35 hours total play time. Don't tell me you actually follow those numbers? 5 hours behind a pc on a holiday? 3 hours of spare time during study? What kind of country you live in? - Here when during a period to study I'm spending at least 12 hours daily on basic study. (8 hours college, 4 hours to work through material & prepare for next day).. And I'm not even considered a hard worker. Is runescape really only ment for those who do some kind of study where they don't have to make full weeks? 12 hours plus 1 hour supper = 13 hours. 24 hours minus 13 hours = 11 hours, take of 3 hours of gaming, and you have 8 hours left to sleep. And to say, not everyone has the same study as yours, I live in the same country as you and have plenty of time (I am studying at the HBO). If I wouldn't do other real life stuff that I think is more important i could average 5-6 hours gaming a day in a week. (not including weekends). At holidays you could even no-life for ±12 hours and have enough time to eat and sleep. Edit: Also what about secundairy school? You would have loads of time there...

pretty sure I have seen 5-8 of the famous people post here.

200M in all Skills
I just copied everything in excel. The best formula I could get out of it was: y = 0,0011x^6 - 0,3331x^5 + 37,596x^4 - 2009,7x^3 + 50770x^2 - 520060x + 1•10^6 R² = 0,99961 So you can use that as nearly accurate to calculate :P It isn't 100% accurate though (you would then get R²=1) However I did get an accurate formula for the experience difference: y = 83,463 • e^0,0989x R² = 1 When x=0 it tells the difference between level 0 and 1, x=1 tells the difference between level 1 and 2 and so on. It may not be 100% accurate at the lower levels because of the rounding system that jagex uses. edit: nvm it isn't as accurate as I thought, though it is pretty near the actual formula, I think jagex rouding everything down screwed up my excel results. Edit: @Suomi Don't let the opinion of others change who you are or what you do, it is your life not theirs. Second edit: @the posters below Ok, scrap the first formula, but the second one is pretty much accurate (and that R^2 of the second one does say something, as it is a exponential formula). I think the real formula should be somewhere near my formula

New Monster Drops Listing Method
Ok, first I want to say that this is a great update, well done guys :) But there are a few things that could be improved: 1) The yellow is hurting my eyes, remember that not everyone has the same monitor, the same color/lightness preferences and the same brightness preferences. You should pick a better yellow colour. for example #d6ca00 would do better. 2) Delete the underline of the hyperlinks, there is no need for them as all items are now linked, it makes it horrible to read. 3) Make the numbers yellow to, why are they left being white? 4) Don't show broken picture links. (the picture of the item that is showing when you hover your cursor on an item), like herbs, gems, herb seeds. They do not link to a specific item and give a broken image (the famous red cross on windows and a blue question mark on mac). 5) Not sure if this is possible: Remove the number at the pictures at stackable items, as they are confusing when something drops 30 fire runes and you see a fire rune with an one on it. Keep on the good work guys! :) Btw, I would love to see the same thing happen to the item database :) I hope that is possible to do.

More Sad Graphs to Look at
Unless the top 9000 results are all forum posts (or other similair things) your statement isn't true :P I think the difference between 371 and 9330 results is good enough to say that runescape has a lot more problems with bots then WOW, nothing new really.

April Fools Incoming
made me lol :P That would actually be the best april fools for rs I've heard till now.

Demon butler
Like others said, never trust RSwiki, you can use it, but you should recheck it at other websites (like tip.it...) I have seen many mistakes. Like now they are saying that the new drops that came with the ROW update can only be dropped when wearing a ROW, yeah right...

Macros Uncovered!-The Article!
Just like others said, it doesn't add something most people didn't already knew, except for the amount of money they get. You see them as trolls but they all say the same thing, you need to get better at writing articles. Not the way you use your words, but what is behind the article, what did you want to tell us with this article, put more details in it and go deeper, search for things most people don't know yet. Though is actually mentioning the amount of money they get from it not encouraging rule breaking? As it is encouraging people to do the same thing for that amount of money.

CALLING RUNESCAPE SINGAPORE PLAYERS!!
lol, this is not a (general) discussion. However if I would ask all dutch people to say hi, we would have the topic flooded... (not even talking about people from the UK, lol)

200M in all Skills
Wow really, I mean it's not like he doesn't already mention every time he posts how he doesn't have money or needs more for this or that. As a contender I'm sure he knows what money making options are out there, hes perfectly capable of earning it just like everyone else. Here's what a 100M donation will get you, 10 seconds of his time and he will be on his way, cheers! If you had looked just below the vid and read this: What a loser. He doesn't even have time to spare to be thankful. He clicks accept like instantly and teles right after because he cant lose like 3k exp. MasterGuyMovies 3 weeks ago @MasterGuyMovies He thanked me enough afterwards, just because I didn't show it in the vid doesn't mean anything lol. The1Jebrim 3 weeks ago

Expected april's fools?
Don't worry we haven't actually had time to do one this year. Pokemon was good but took a long time to organise. Tis a shame, but there is always next year. He's lying. They're trying to lull us into a false sense of security. Yeah. We're onto you. inb4 the mods delete this post and ban me till aprils 2nd - what? even if the mods don't have anything planned, that does not mean the crew has nothing prepared :P go crew!

Runecrafting Guild
The med can decay (did have it a lot of times), but I thought the smallest couldn't. I think I did read that somewhere at runescape.com but I am not sure.

Vecna Skull
I don't think the drops are ROW specific, the RS Wiki also states that to get the new drops from the drop table you have to wear ROW. I rather think ROW just increases the chance you get the skull or any other item. You should not take the wiki as a guide for this kind of things, I have seen a lot of big mistakes the wiki had.
