We'll all look different tommorow
the new skills page should come with it. Anyway, the new hairstyles are pretty overdue imo, it's about time since we've had these since the release of rs2 and the current ones don't look very amazing.

Rares Up?
that could have been a possibility, but if it were true, then it wouldn't have happened so suddenly, it would have been a much more gradual rise. [hide] This is why people go to school, because there's generally an Economics class. The reason prices go down on rares is because less people want to buy them. If less people want to buy them, there's more competition amongst the sellers, which makes them decrease their prices to a point where a buyer is willing to purchase the seller's item and not from the seller's competition. This drives prices down on a wholesome level, meaning that prices across the board drop, because people can, and will, find the cheapest prices. An economy is more than the amount of items in the market at any given time. Economics is the relationship between quantity demanded, and quantity supplied. If you plot these two variables on a graph, the slope of that graph represents the price at which people are willing to pay for the goods. The study of Economics is an art, not something to be laughed at. [/hide]We all know the law of supply and demand, don't waste your time explaining. Also, the economy is much more than just "hey, nobody is buying this [cabbage], so it will fall" and "hey now everyone [bleep]ing wants it, it will skyrocket"

Rares Up?
well construction is a year and 2 months old now, the after effects are long gone. As for the 3rd age, there is a possibility, but considering the rarity of the armour, and the fact that selling your santa wont make you afford it, it still seems very unlikely.

Parents name baby Superman
I'm going to name my kid voldemort. This reminds me of the story about a parent that tried to name her kid "hitler", seriously, do you care at all about your kid's future? I don't care what his/her name is, it's just that the kid will have a miserable school life, and future in general.

Land of the Free?
yeah, there's a lot of bs in the world today, but the government exists for a reason, maybe you should educate yourself and find out what it is. Also, check my sig.

Rares Up?
I'm sorry, but thats one of the dumbest things I have heard in a while. That actually makes a bit of sense. 3rd Age, Skill Capes, and Construction killed rares for the past year or so, as rich players sold their rares to be able to afford these new things. However, the people that want these things have gotten them, and now have a surplus of cash. well you see, it doesnt work that way, people don't sell rares for the sake of getting a cape or a nice house. The ones that can barely afford a rare have better things to do than waste money on an unnecessarily expensive house valuing at over 30m. Same goes for capes, you either invest in a cape or a rare, you don't jump round between the two. As for the people who have multiple expensive rares, again, they either don't waste their money, and if they do, most lvl 99 stats don't require much money, something someone with a lot of rares would have no trouble affording, and a lot of skills end up making profit anyway. Either way, there are very few people out there with so many rares, even if they each sell one for some 99 stats or an overly fancy house, it would have almost zero effect on the economy. It's pure common sense, menial things like that don't affect something as massive as the economy. You might as well say that exploding stars are caused by humans. It's simple; the rares market is both very small and very expensive. This gives the rich phat merchants a lot of room to manage the prices, it works the same way as the stock market in real life. When the prices slow down in rising, people slow down in buying them, which makes them fall, it's a deadly cycle that sometimes causes crashes (There has only been one crash in runescape to date, which happened at the phat dupe), but usually the prices simply remain stagnant at lower prices. Since they become cheaper, more people tend to buy them, and eventually they restore to their usual rising speed. It's funny how every time something like this happens, people often tend to make strange and far fetched theories to what happened when the answer is almost always the same, and very simple. I'm sorry, but thats one of the dumbest things I have heard in a while.[/hide] I'm sorry, but I missed the part where his idea was so far-fetched that you had to demean it.... Honestly, people that get it in their heads that they're right think that any other idea sounds ludicrous :wall: Who are you to say he is absolutely wrong? the guy with common sense :|

Your top 5 stats and why?
99 (17.3m xp) fletching: I used to make money with it, I also invested in maple longs (u) before the bug was fixed 99 (14m xp) cooking: for another cape and the extra xp 99 fishing: money and bragging rights 99 wcing: first one, see fishing. 84 farming: best skill in the game

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
did you read to book or not? I would say it's just like sports, a combination of natural talent and how much effort you put into it.

Website Maitnence!!
or they're just going to do some usual maitnence like they said they would.

Does the Runescape community need/deserve clanchat?
I don't understand your point

A new rather scummy lure.
What could the lurer have possibly said to make someone go to the extent of getting their hp low and taking karamja rum a few steps away from the store for no apparent reason? If you are stupid enough go that far then I feel no pity at all for you.

Is quitting Runescape an achievement?

Complete statistics of the RuneScape Highscores
it has been like that for longer than I can remember. makes sense, there's no point in continuing to train slayer past 13m, because there's no reward for it. Even though the same goes for prayer, prayer is easier for those with money, which just happen to be the people with 99.

~Sometimes -_- (A warning for all )~
thats totally irrevelent -_- unless you are trying to say that jagex banned website advertising just so jagex wouldn't know about any site...? which makes no sense in more ways than you can imagine. Either way, jagex has the worst customer support on the planet, you might be in trouble.
