I think we should be able to grow cocoa beans and make our own chocolate. This would be on a special farm somewhere, and involve growing plant, picking beans (similar to fruit), leaving beans to ripen (takes 30 mins), and then making the chocolate. I can't remember how it's made 'cos the last time I went to Cadbury World was ages ago. Anyway, you could put these farms in Karamja, where it's hot. Maybe in the middle of the banana plantation or close to the volcano. There's loads of wasted space in Karamja.

Well they've been updating the RuneScript, and I guess all these updates have been tuned to the new version instead of the old one. Also, if they're doing updates to gameplay (the new interface and the sounds) then it's probably best to put these out together because otherwise it would mean adding a 'change volume' thing for both the old and new interfaces. I'm not sure why they updated Lumby quite so much. They didn't need to put that in here. However, the bank is fine although I always used Al Kharid bank. Going up two flights of stairs is annoying. Apart from Gnome Stronghold, where it's the only bank for a long way around, this is about the only upstairs bank. I'm not sure why they have so many banks so close together in F2P. Al Kharid is close enough once you've done the Prince Ali quest.

It's so weird. I just got onto RS for the first time in a while and it feels like I'm in a dream from last night. You know how dreams can have elements of the real thing but all mixed up? Well, it's like that. I find it really difficult to get the hang of. Why a whole page just for little-used emotes? The old system was so much less complicated.

Good luck getting your goal, especially on F2P. At least you get to go on RS during the school year! My dad blocked it last year :(.

History of RS... how about portraits of RS as RSC? Like images of old Lumby and old buildings compared to now.

I think the hardest skills to max out would be prayer (imagine how long that would take!) and agility. If you look on the RS hiscores then you can see which skills have been maxed out by people. But if it got that hundreds of people maxed out a particular skill then Jagex might just up how many xp you need to max.

I always pronounced it Ar-dorn, which is kind of like Jagex's way except only two syllables and no 'y'.

No. I tried that, but although it switches how much magic xp you get it doesn't change the amount of gp you get. It only has the high alch gp values. Bronze is now done! See the first post. Iron next.

Hi! Are you a low-level mage wondering just how much money you can make from low-alching things as opposed to high-alching them? Tip.it only gives you the high-alch values, so this can be annoying. If you are making things from scratch eg: mining and smithing, then you have no money to lose! Just post here, and I will attempt to get the low-alch values of anything you want. However, just to make sure it is okay for me to find these values, I suggest you look me up on the RS hiscores. I'm there for everything except mage, range, att, str and hp. If this thread is in the wrong place, please move it. I am currently working on iron low-alch levels. Steel is next. Bronze Bar - 3gp Dagger - 4gp Hatchet - 6gp Mace - 7gp Medium Helm - 9gp X-bow bolt (unf) - 0gp / finished bolt - 1gp ea Sword - 10gp Wire - 8gp Nails - 0gp Scimitar - 12gp Arrowhead - 0gp / Finished arrow - 0gp X-bow limb - 8gp / X-bow - 29gp Longsword - 16gp Full helm - 17gp Square shield - 19gp Warhammer - 18gp Battleaxe - 20gp Chainmail - 24gp Kite shield - 27gp Claws - 6gp 2-h sword - 32gp Legs/skirt - 32gp Plate mail - 64gp

Making money is not as easy as some people claim. I myself have a preference for selling things in shops as opposed to merchanting. I have about 120K, which came from doing lots of different things but mainly from crafting and smithing. The most I've ever had is 200K+. I don't care if I don't have millions in my bank. I don't want a party hat or any rare item. All I want to do is to play RS and have fun. Simple! The gp is a bonus.

Agility is the worst skill to train, going round and round and round the courses. Construction is the most annoying because it's so expensive and because it's tedious. Prayer is the most boring because you could bury a thousand bones and barely get anywhere.

Because men have to pay 1k for a shave and 1k for a cut, but women have to pay 2k for just a cut. Maybe it's because us gals have longer hair.

I will be a member when I get around to completing Dragon Slayer. I also did Knight's Sword on members. All the other F2P quests were done on F2P tho. Honest!

Hear hear! I totally agree. Although I'm not a high enough level to wear dragon yet, I do understand that at about level 70 or so in attack and defence you kind of get fed up with it. People with high level attack can get through you, and you can get through them. I think the main problem with RS, though, is that now there are too many different types of armour, especially for melee. I now have a lot of trouble working out which armour is best. It was so much easier in the old days before dragon, although people were also lower in combat then too. Everyone - rangers, mages and melee - wore rune! They introduced dragon and better range and mage armour for that reason. This was a good idea. But the bad idea was making so many different types of armour that it gets confusing. It's much easier just to have a progression, where as you gain in levels you can wear better armour, as in the old system. It also means that your prowess as a warrior can be measured by what armour you wear - it becomes a status symbol. I know in the old days, all the best warriors wore rune. Good ol' RSC, eh?

GOAL COMPLETED! Slayer picture will be coming once I can upload it from the other computer.

Good luck! I hope it takes you less than 123 days to do this, but keep at it! All respect to you for attempting this. No way would I have the patience!

Two skills reached! 30 Ranging whilst slaying bears, and 30 slayer whilst slaying hobgoblins. Next skill: 30 Runecrafting by doing fire runes.

Okay. I'm taking a break from construction so I can get my combat and slayer up. I have a task to kill kalphites, so obviously I'm going for the workers. They're only level 28 so I don't need any food (my combat is 62). Will return later, hopefully with a level 30 slayer reached screenshot.

I just don't like doing combat a lot, so I raise my other skills instead. I'm on 26 construction, by the way. Gonna buy full mith so I can make a statue of armour. Also need to make a cat basket and replace the low-lv plants in my gardens. Tuesday is not a good day for RuneScaping. My dad's at home and he doesn't like me going online a lot.

My goal for the next few days in RuneScape is to get all my skills up to level 30. I applogise for the poor quality of the next picture. Blame it on Paint. My current skill totals (21/08/06) Working from lowest to highest of the under-thirty skills, I will start with construction. I'm actually not far from level 24, and I've got logs in the bank and tea to brew. 23/08/2006 Having taken a break from construction, I am working on Slayer. My assignment is to kill bears. At Ardougne zoo I not only saw Postie Pete but also got my range to 30. Now I can do Big Chompy Bird Hunting quest! Later: I've done 30 slayer. Picture to come soon. Right now I'm going to do RuneCrafting. I need 745 fire runes to get to level 30. Any buyers? 24/08/2006 RuneCrafting was completed last night! Now it's just construction to go. I think construction is really the hardest skill to raise up. Picture soon! Skill: start/now/goal Construction: 23/27/30 Runecrafting: 25/30/30 - Complete! Slayer: 26/30/30 - Complete! Ranging: 28/30/30 - Complete!

Well I've never had that happen to me. Wish it had... But once I did manage to get my inventory and costume tabs to vanish so I couldn't select them. That was interesting...

Does your dad know my dad? My dad blocked me for RS as well, because I was supposed to concentrate on learning. Got it back for the summer, tho. How'd your exam results go? Wish I had the patience to just stick on one skill like that. Well done!

This quest centres around the deserted buildings in the east of Falador, and adds a new dungeon as well as re-introducing old characters. It also incorportates the construction skill. It's level is easy - but tedious, and it's completely based around the F2P area. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start: Brother Laereck, outside the large deserted building in East Falador. Items: Rope, light source, spade, 2 oak planks, saw, hammer, amulet of ghostspeak. Quests: The Restless Ghost Skills: 19 construction Recommended: 40 magic and 7 air, 4 law, 2 fire and 2 earth runes. NPC: Brother Laereck, Brother Aereck, Estate Agent(s), Lonely Beast, Tom Agent, Samantha Agent. 1. Brother Laereck tells you that twenty-five years ago he went to the monastery to become a monk of Saradomin. Today he has come back home to find all his family missing. East Falador used to be home to a group of furniture makers, but now they have gone. He needs your help. Agree to help Laerek search for his family. Laereck first suggests that you go ask his brother Aereck who came to the monastery after him but then went on to a church in Lumbridge. 2. Items required for the next part: Amulet of ghostspeak. Go speak to Aereck. He will not agree to help you until you have sorted out another ghost problem. If you havenÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t got an amulet of ghostspeak, go and talk to Father Uruhney in the swamp next door. Enter the graveyard wearing your amulet and a ghost of a child will jump out at you, laughing. Talk to the child, and he will tell you he doesnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t want to leave RuneScape because he is scared of the gods. 3. Go back and explain the problem to Aereck. He will ask to borrow your amulet of ghostspeak and talk to the child. When he has the amulet, talk to him again. Aereck will say that he has talked to the child, but the boy still refuses to leave. He gives you back the amulet, so you can talk to the child again. This time, the boy admits that he doesnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t know how to get out of Runescape, but he can see a white light at the corner of his vision that wonÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t go away. You tell the boy to head towards the white light, and he vanishes. Return to Aereck, and he will explain what he knows about the story. After he completed his training, he went back to his home but couldnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t find his family. Unfortunately he had to go to Lumbridge, but on his way there he met two of his cousins, the Estate Agents, who said they were too scared to go back to their old home. 4. Go and speak to any one of the Estate Agents. You will be told to speak to the one in Falador if he's not the one you're talking to, as he stayed closer to home and is the older of the brothers. Apparently, all the Estate Agents are brothers. The Faladorian Agent tells you that when he was about eight, twenty years ago, he lived with his family in East Falador. But something mysterious and terrifying was discovered in the workshop and the whole group left, dispersing across the whole continent. Otherwise, the agent knows nothing. 5. Items required for the next part: Spade, rope, light source, tinderbox. Go back to the large deserted building and go inside. Walk to the north east corner and search the floorboards until you find a loose one. Use your spade on the loose floorboard and tie a rope to the hole. Use your tinderbox on the light source and climb down the rope. Climb down into a long cave. There are several rocks that can be mined here (including blurite and iron). Walk to the end of the cave and you will see a Lonely Beast. Talk to him. 6. The Lonely Beast will talk for a long while about being lonely. Eventually you interrupt him and ask if you can help. All he wants is someone to talk to, but last time he saw someone, a long time ago, they were scared of him and ran away. Go back out of the cave and return to the Falador Estate Agent. He will believe you, and tell you to find his family in Varrock, giving you a message for them. Walk/tele to Varrock and find the house between the museum and the church. 7. Items required for the next part: Saw, hammer, 2 oak planks. Talk to Tom or Samantha Agent and they will mistrust you. In order to prove your worth to them, you must make a flatpacked oak chair. Tele/walk to your house and make the chair, then tele/walk back to Varrock. Give the flatpacked chair to Tom or Samantha, and they will agree to investigate your claim. Tom will come with you to Falador. Start to walk towards West Varrock and then the scene will load. Suddenly you are just outside the deserted house with Tom. Walk over and climb down the rope. Now there is a short cutscene where Tom talks to the monster and finds out heÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s not so bad. 8. After the cutscene, you and Tom are standing at the bottom of the rope. Tom tells you he is sorry that he didnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t believe you. He is going to tell everyone from the community who once lived there what has happened. Apparently they all went to far-off places to get away from Falador. Tom vanishes. When you climb up the rope, you find yourself inside a busy workshop full of people. Go outside and you will see that the houses also have people in them. Talk to Brother Laereck, who is now happy. He will thank you, and tell you that you can come back any time you want. End of quest! Rewards: 10k construction exp, 5k prayer exp, entry into workshop mines, 2 QP.

I am completely fed up with guessing how far along I am in each level - whether I've done more or less than half-way. It would be much more encouraging to have a progress bar.

Sign me up! I'm fed up with being asked by complete strangers if I'll be their gf (or bf if they're gender confused).
