The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
Well I, for one, would love to discuss other teams, but it's just too easy to talk about Toronto's woes. :rolleyes: What's your team Four? I'm something of a Habs fan, myself ...

Gun Control
I spy with my little eye someone who hasn't taken a university level course in statistics. Obviously, I forgot to put in the [/sarcasm] tag ... It didn't look like to me that you were sarcastic - usually when I see someone cite that "statistic", it tells me a couple of things - 1. They don't know how to reject or parry statistical claims made by others 2. They don't understand statistics enough to make their own claims - basically, a humorous attempt to draw attention away from a personal weakness in debates. Well - I could sit here and argue with people that gun ownership is unnecessary, but they'd just quote random statistics that they've made up on the spot, or claim to have read/seen/not made up, without providing supporting links or evidence to the contrary. The sad reality about the entire gun ownership (control) debate is that, really, if you feel compelled to own one for the purposes of your own personal security what does that imply about: 1. The society in which you live in that you have to physically arm yourself in order to protect yourself from your fellow citizens; and 2. Does possessing a firearm with the intention of harming another person in order to protect your "stuff" from someone else, mean that you have so little concern for the life of another human being that you'd rather kill them than lose your X-box? :unsure:

My Runescape Fansite
Three posts in total and two of them are this same post? ... and you ask why people think this is "dodgy"? <_<

Bots don't load RS in a browser so no. I think I understand this comment, but I am not sure. Please explain? :unsure:

I wonder if reporting him for scamming would have any effect/result? <_<

idiotic runescape reviews
Yes - I can see why that'd do it. I was wondering if the reviewer might possibly have been playing the free "tutorial mode", with the speech feature, and this was why he was getting this message? :unsure:

Luring
Lately, I've taken to using the banker's box in the Clan Wars section of the Gamer's Grotto to work on my herblore skill. It's a one-click box AND I can "collect" from it while training. I've watched numerous efforts to lure players into the Dangerous Portal -- some more cunning than others. :unsure: Frankly, I don't understand why the Dangerous Portal is still around.

Stupid guilt story to get off my chest
I've got twin boys who turn 16 this year - thanks for the new gray hairs! :blink: Ok - seriously - take something "good" away from this story. You had something of a close call and got away with it this time. Tack it down to a lesson well learned and don't repeat the same mistake again -- and I don't mean getting caught -- I mean, make this a lesson to ensure you employ safer driving in the future. :shades:

Funny - in all the years I've played Runescape I have never, ever, seen this message before. :unsure:

Jungle Strykewyrms
I've always used my best melee gear and super-anti poisons. An SGS is helpful for healing but a bunyip is just as useful. Worth doing, imo, especially if you need herby drops. :thumbup:

Have there been (m)any winners? :unsure:

Dungeoneering Skillcape Game
Yeah, what I'm saying is that the owner can equip rings to allow him to win everytime. Yes, but the question is whether or not the rings actually affect the result. I don't know the answer to this. We'd need someone to test-drive it and see what the results are first.

Dungeoneering Skillcape Game
Was it P.T Barnum that said a "sucker was born every minute"? :unsure: Surely, there's something in the "greed factor" of would be players that think they can get something for nothing that draws them to these types of games? I don't pretend to see their appeal either, but there's so many variations suddenly popping up everywhere.

Behind the Scenes - March
Ring of wealth looks promising. And i am looking forward to see how Pirate quest is. Of all the updates this month, the Pirate Quest is certainly the one I am looking forward to seeing. I love this series of quests and their quirky sense of humour (and that no kittens were harmed). :lol:

Behind the Scenes - March
Can't wait for my new armour equivalent to sacred clay, zamorak, guthix, saradomin, arma, bandos, ancient, gilded, gold trimmed, trimmed, 1 heralded, 2 heralded, 3 heralded, 4 heralded, 5 heralded, rockshell, proufound. It is clear to me that you are just trolling. I've posted numerous comments in this thread about the "smithing update" and THIS is what you take away from this? Really? :rolleyes:

What movie(s) did you last see?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139797/ Better. Yes, I've seen that one too. But I prefer my films without subtitles. Strange, I know, but that's just me. The book by John Ajvide Lindqvist is incredible and, in my opinion, neither movie touches on the subject matter raised therein -- which may be a good thing, because part of that book made my skin crawl. Not that THAT's a bad thing -- it is a horror story, after all. :unsure:

Massive decrease in world population since update..
Id say the majority of botters are f2p, but yeah that's still a nontrivial portion of jagex's income. Doesn't Jagex still "earn" money off F2P bots from advertising spacing? :unsure:

Massive decrease in world population since update..
There's a new log in screen. Would this affect bots?

Gun Control
Strong point. Also, in response to killing being the only use of a gun, this is not the case. I'm sure I speak for most here when I say that intimidation is the main reason a gun is desirable for self-defense proponents, and pulling the trigger would only be conceived if an innocent life was in immediate danger. The reason I'm against gun bans in America is because I want lives to be saved. Statistically speaking you are correct. While I don't remember the name of the study off the top of my head, something like 19 times out of 20 no shots were fired when a gun was used in self defense. 95% of statistics are made up on the spot ... :rolleyes:

Any of whom will come at a fraction of Jiggy's salary, which'd free up enough cash for your draft picks ...
