Whenever the market trades slowly (i.e. most items are crashing or most are bought out) updates are further apart.

Things government institutionalized entities are better at than market competition: Public Defense Utilities Transfer Payments/Donations As an individual, paying taxes is generally preferable to its alternatives, not paying taxes and being arrested or withdrawing from the system and being autonomous. There is no morality but the morality of free market economics. Rational self interest is the only commandment. If you participate in the government it is because you have deemed it the rational decision and that you gain more than you lose.

WARE IS MY UPDAYT I PAY I SAY

Because we need even higher prices [/sarcasm] Realize that any change in combat mechanics will have an enormous ripple effect. You can reduce damage by 25% with new gemmed equipment? You thought Bandos was crowded before, look at it now. I'd say no. What we DON'T need right now is to [bleep] up an already unstable marketplace. Did you even think this through before you spewed out that insane comment? Did you ever stop to wonder why the draron legs are pretty much worthless now? Ill give you a hint because you are dumb. Its because there are more and more comming into the game every day and there are very few LEAVING the game every day. The only way to maintain the value of an item is to stabalize the price of the item. Items leaving the game is a good thing. Just because you are a poor noob and cant afford items dosent mean the rest of the players who dont suck should have to suffer. And the market place is unstable because of the mechanic of the GE. First off you would be the one who doesn't reread your comments. It is full of logical fallacies and generalized and misinformed opinions, not to mention typographical errors. You are correct that the way the GE works is partly why the market is unstable. Add to that the inflation from PvP drops (which has since leveled) and you have a fine balancing act. Single updates - hell, even announcements of updates (c.f. "Save The Date!") - can send the market into chaos. Prices cannot adjust quickly, and something to the effect of drastically decreasing supply and increasing demand for armours would have catastrophic effects on every sector of the Runescape economy. Now to refute your points. Dragon legs are worthless because they are a piece of worthless armor. They are worthless because there are many substitutes which are competetively priced (c.f. Dharok's Platelegs). The only way to maintain the value of an item is for the item to remain valuable and desired. Artificially holding the price of outdated equipments is inefficient and frankly economically [developmentally delayed]ed. Items leaving the game is good for a particular individual holding said items, such as you or I - the people who are not "poor noobs," as you would say. On the other hand, this would be bad for "poor noobs" who do not currently own these equipments, whether they have only 100k or sold their gear for a month because they were taking a break. Moreover, items leaving the game is bad for the economy in a macro sense. The reduced supply would cause stagflation which is universally accepted as bad. -- I'll have you know that I am neither poor nor a noob, and I can afford any piece of equipment in the game and would consider my stats to be adequate. I have never seen such unprovoked ad hominem attacks on TIF in response to a simple criticism of ideas and principles, and frankly it's disgusting. No need to flip a [bleep] when someone disagrees with you. As for: I let my logical arguments speak for themselves. A comparison of my posts to someone who is not dumb (presumably one such as yourself) will show my merits.

If you took away the XP, it'd never be used. If you still gave XP, it would make powerfishing much easier. Probably not, and I personally don't approve.

Why does your "Problems with the Grand Exchange" section not actually detail any problems with the Grand Exchange?

No, they all change at the same time, but that time varies depending on how many items are traded and other factors.

Grats. Good trade since bars aren't really a prime use of bonus xp, since you could use SC hammers any other time. They're crashing now anyway :P

Nomad would be much easier to go 10/10 with than KQ. He's not attacking you have the fight and all his attacks are predictable. When he freezes you, safe up. When he lays mines, safe up. VERY easy.

Nomad was much easier than soloing KQ and I only used like 12 brews.

Economic advisor, since they seem to have none <_<

Flip until you know what you want to buy.

No, you have an error in your statistics. The most powerful weapon in the game requires 70, not 75 attack.

All of those suck, including cannonballs. The only worthwhile one is nature/death runecrafting.

Fine. I'll repost my image in words: -MURDERFACEPALM- The OP's post was clearly facetious as evidenced by his second post (third total post). It is idiotic and has no real discussion value.

Runescape is a GAME - it's supposed to be relaxing. Mostly they do it since more people play on the weekend.

The 2X weekend will not stack with anything. :rolleyes:

You're a fool if you think slayer is fast money.

Hush yo mouth, boy.

Kyatt, not Graahk.

Here's one off just the first page of discontinued.

Ah oops, must have been someone selling a santa. Not sure why you'd want to buy a h'ween since it's just begun crashing, though.

Kyatt should get you at least 2500, and up to 3000 pouches per hour.

You got owned, you can buy h'weens for like 20m cash.

Go kill some monsters for ranarrs and gather some snapegrass then. I would not have predicted a rise in price of prayer potions, but it's here.
