I thought Abramovich wanted to invest in the youth structure at Chelsea and avoid big money signings. The offer for Torres and the approach for Luiz seems like a knee jerk reaction to be honest.

Nom. :thumbup:

Missed 86 Fletching pic, doing mithril bolts w/mousekeys up to 90 which is like 300k xp/hr. Hurts my finger though. :thumbup:

I go to the gym three times a week so it wouldn't be difficult to encorporate more aerobic exercises into my normal routine. Should I be doing this before or after I've been lifting weights?

They were taped off air whilst their microphones were still on, I don't know if you actually heard it but they clearly weren't joking and it's quite bad for the game to have two of the most recognisable sports presenters in Britain to be heard talking with such archaic viewpoints.

In terms on non-cb skills I have bought everything I need to complete my goals, so I was wondering what is the best thing for me to save up for next? I have about 10M and a rl friend has 60M he wants to give me when free trade comes out. I am probably thinking in terms of monster hunting as opposed to Slayer. I don't have Bandos yet so I was considering that or otherwise saving up for the ~120M needed for 95 Prayer. I'm not sure how much more 95-ish herblore would cost for OVLs but I'll consider that. I'm not planning on getting a chaotic in the near future if that influences anything. Of course if I've forgotten something that is very useful and I don't have it please suggest. :thumbup:

I think a part of it has been not getting back into the gym properly since exams and stuff, but I was wondering if there are any specific cardio exercises that would suit 6-aside football because I'm not looking for long distance but more short bursts.

I'm in a 6-aside football league but I really need to improve my stamina cos it's pretty poor, so I was wondering if I could get some advice on that. They are short games (35 mins) but high intensity so I imagine some sort of interval training would be useful. I've been running on a treadmill three times a week doing 1minute on one speed, increasing for another minute, increasing for another and then decreasing down to the original etc, but I was wondering if there was anything else that I can do on top of that or as an alternative.

I tried to do a similar thing when I was around that age but I just got bitten and scratched.

Wouldn't it make sense to have the Summoning level in brackets instead? I don't pk myself but I imagine it would be easier that way for pkers to gauge exactly what familiars they could use.

The gravestone update looks fair, you'll lose your stuff like before if you're in a random place but if you're with your friends they will bless it and you can get your stuff back.

This sums up Blyaunte's point of view perfectly. Also Omali's posters are pretty awesome, Blyaunte you should put them in your signature. Hey – if you can demonstrate to me why and/or how, on earth, ANY legitimate corporate entity would or could clusterf**k their way through a game-changing operation in this fashion, I am all ears. I'm all in favour of giving up the entire "deliberate rigging" argument in favour of "Jagex is chocked full of incompetent boobs" any time ... :lol: Hey if you can give me some evidence on how they rigged the vote... go right ahead. Let me ask you this – when Jagex removed the Wilderness and Free Trade three years ago purportedly because of RWT, with the excuse of how much RWT was hurting them financially, and how they almost lost the business, did you think they were telling you the truth back then? Did you believe them? Do you think Jagex has a handle on RWT trading now? More than likely, the difference between now and three years ago has more to do with the settlement of all legal claims against them filed by the credit card companies, than it does with anything else. I'd wager that Jagex prolly now has sufficient legal protocols in place to deny their own liability for any illicit transaction performed via a stolen credit card, or whatever it was purported to have transpired. Not that Jagex would allow any disclosure of, or admit to, any information relating to such a settlement, but hey, I'm just sayin' ... :rolleyes: If that was the case, why would they need to rig the vote? If they felt that bringing back free trade and the old wilderness was possible without the risk of having credit card fraud like before then why wouldn't they ask the community if they should? Even if RWT and botting stays at the same level as it is now, that won't mean they made a bad decision to switch to the old system. This way they get more money from subscriptions and the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of their customer base is happy as OVER 90% of them voted positively for it. Everyone knows that they took a dip in subscriptions when lots of players quit in 07, it makes sense therefore that a lot of player would want the current system to be changed back. The fallout from the 07 changes was massive, the implications of Jagex changing that around again now are equally so. You are basing your conspiracy theory on a complete whim, you only need to see the old users coming back to this forum as a result of the referendum as proof that the poll attracted a large number of people and, therefore, is most likely legit.

It makes sense to return free trading if you are going to re-implement old wildy. But in no possible universe it makes sense to return wildy if you are going to re-implement free trade. Why not? I'm genuinely curious, I haven't given it much thought.

What's with everyone saying this. It's possible to have free trade without old wildy. ... and it's certainly possible to have the old Wildy without free trade ... :mellow: Yeah you probably could, but if you are going to bring one back it makes sense to bring both seeing as they were linked and were both removed at the same time.

Can't have one without the other really.

I think what people are really meaning to say is that Jagex already had plans to release the Wildy and Free Trade before they even put it to a vote. The outcome of this vote was fairly predictable, so that made this whole vote safe. Now if for some bizarre reason the vote hadn't favored bringing back these features, or even if it hadn't been such a decisive landslide, then yes of course Jagex would've reconsidered it, no matter if they had already begun working on the programming or not. But it was pretty obvious how this was going to play out, not to mention how the poll was implemented. It's like Jagex grinned and yelled, :thumbsup: "Who wants ice cream?" :thumbsup: It's a rhetorical question. Everyone wants ice cream, or at least in this case, 91% of everyone. Except two things: 1. the vast majority of people on this planet are lactose-intolerant. So no, not *everybody* wants ice cream, and; 2. inasmuch as it was a forgone conclusion that Jagex was going to bring back the Wildy regardless of the vote tally, we've no way, whatsoever, in knowing for certain that it was an actual "overwhelming majority" who wanted it. <_< Over 90% voted to bring it back, how much more of an overwhelming majority do you want? Oh, so you trust Jagex to give us an honest vote for a feature that they already planned to bring back regardless of the outcome of the vote? :unsure: Sweet! Say I've got this RARE spinach roll for sale. It's worth 100M but I'll see it to you for only 1M. Ok? :shades: You'd have to be either extremely cynical or extremely stupid to think that Jagex rigged that vote.

Plus it won't cost as much if you repair it in your house.

How much of an impact will reintroducing free trade and the wilderness have on future updates?

Got this earlier than expected cos I was able to use up some effigies I had banked. Not sure whether to use my peng points from now on towards Mining, Agil or Hunter (leaning towards Agil). Any thoughts?

:thumbup:

The King's Speech, Firth was absolutely brilliant in it.

Liking the look of the new maps, will be interesting to see how the ziplines etc work out.
