I realize this is not technically profit when you analyze it in terms of what I could sell stuff for or the cost of waiting around for herbs to grow, but I farm snaps and make super restores and at the end of the day I deposit more coins in the bank than when I started even after buying back all the costs such as the vials, the seeds, the supercompost, and seconds, AND I get both farm and herb xp, so I'm happy. I'll occasionally farm kwuarms too for the same effect to a lesser extent, but only if for some reason snap seeds/super restores/spider eggs are slow in selling or buying.

I give people props for sticking with a skill to 99, but I'd guess most did it only for a cape. If they don't care for that skill, and they just want a fancy 99 cape so they can show off, it's kinda cheap. Sure, there's more people with str or att or whatever, but combat skills are more useful in general (quests, more hp=less chance of dying due to something stupid like poison) and make the most money (pvp or gwd or slayer are probably the best profit in rs today, and even killing green drags is better profit than mining rune, fishing monkfish/shark, or cutting yews/magics per hour)

I usually just farm the highest level herb I can both farm and make into a potion. You can make money off any potion this way, except for quest potions or other untradable potions.

A more appropriate award would be an account deletion. Seriously, go outside.

About the GE, it just basically lets you AFK buy and sell, before it was extremely easy to find buyers and sellers amongst the many rs fansite forums and later the official RS forums. Items that were hard to sell beforehand are still hard to sell.

99 strength may be the most common skill at 99, but at least it's not a buyable skill :D Yeah, any 99 is special though and something you can be proud of. Even the 'easy' ones.

I used to be in love with the storyline because I remember playing the quests when they first came out, but the storyline progressed way too slow, and since I've pretty much lost interest in them and quests in general. All are pretty much the same only with different skills to do the same thing and different characters saying the same puns.

If I don't play for a day for some reason, then I usually won't play again for a couple more days. It's the same with any game. I can't get into games as much anymore unless I take some time off from them.

Chance and probability is independent. If you get a hilt, you are just as likely to get one on the next boss you kill. The chance of one doesn't add up as time goes on without one. For example, on a gargoyle task the other day I got a clue, then a granite maul in a row. Then later on in the day, on a different world, at jellies I got 2 rune fulls in a row. I know those aren't as big of drops, but for those particular monsters, it's pretty much their best drops.

I say Slayer. Sure you can train other skills and it has a lot of benefits and it seems to go by a bit faster than other skills (at least to me it does), but that doesn't change the fact that if you started from scratch, level 1 in everything, and leveled combat only with slayer tasks, getting 99 in each melee skill would still not give you 99 slayer as well.

D scim has never been nerfed :\ Maybe the spec got changed to not affect boss monsters as much or at all, i don't know I don't kill boss monster usually, and especially not with a d scim, but in terms of stats or speed, it's been the same.

I really stopped caring. Quests are pretty lame imo. They're all pretty much run around and fetch X obscure item, then solve childish puzzle Y, then receive worthless reward Z. I can't get into the storylines for the quests either, they're all pretty cliche and dragged out too long with too long between updates between them. Minigames haven't been good since PC, and even then they updated PC and made it suck. The only good updates anymore are the things to make banking, teleporting, whatever, a lot smoother and faster.

Today, I should finish my slayer task of black demons which will result in 97 str and 77 slayer.

I haven't gained a fishing or mining level in over 2 and a half years :D (but im 87 mining, so I can mine rune, so i don't see much of a reason to level it) Over 25% on my total xp is in strength, and over 60% in combat stats in general

True, but he didnt say that they should be. He said accounts not used that also havent gotten past tutorial island.

Burning yew trees gives exactly 1k fm xp

Evil Tree, tele to cammy, cut the maples up north where no one is, cut another evil tree, cut more maples, mope around before I realize RS isn't that fun for me anyway, log off. If I could cut evil trees without a limit, I'd do it all day, but it seems the things that are actually slightly fun in rs are limited. I mean, the evil tree has no amazing rewards, and while it's good xp, the trees go fast, so it's not like anyone can actually just cut a tree for 12 hours getting a ton of xp. Even the no banking has little effect on xp, as low level trees are real close to a bank anyway, and higher level trees only require one or two trips of bank for the time you get the logs autobanked.

RS makes me feel old I'm 18 :(

I'd actually prefer Jagex release something with insane requirements... Just to make me level.

I don't see why it's a big deal either way. The gloves aren't tradeable, so it's not like people can just buy the gloves and have 10000 of them, and someone can just as easily stockpile 1000 or however many tickets and simply tele to varrock then back to fally in like 5 minutes.

The mods are lying, they just don't want all that money being put back into the rs economy!

Almost true, if that person that is playing has a high level in that skill, it is very nice for leveling. If you do not believe that a low level can get attack/str/def/mage/range/slayer xp with out getting hp, then check out this guy from RSC Forums. [yt]DLfwYOKXxOU[/yt] Quote from the guy in this video: "-Soul wars was released while I was 92 attack. I hopped on the leecher bandwagon and got 717 zeal within 5 days" How is this natural? :wall: It needs to be fixed. whats the leecher bandwagon? They join games near the end on the winning team and get the zeal points while having done nothing important to help the team win really. I think many of them will be banned however, as this rivals the penguin abuse...

I don't think I've ever posted on RSOF

I've been going for 99 strength since 2005. Seriously... I don't play that much, and didn't play at all from 2006-August 2008.

Skills for earning decent money. I can make a couple mil a week on rune ores, but even that is a little luck in finding worlds with ores and no one else mining. Luck is definitely how you get insanely rich though
