  1. I am in favour of hybrid icing. I always found the touch up rule to be so dangerous.

     

    The 2-minute minor for removing your helmet is silly. If one guy removes his brain bucket - the other one should too, and usually does. All you end up with is off-setting minors in addition to 5 for fighting.

     

    And it's about time for visors IMO ...

  2.  

     

    Speaking of distractions, the Chronicle Fragments are a nice touch if they actually did what it says on the tin. But while a sufficient amount of fragments usually make a whole, these Fire Spirit stunt-doubles, when collected and deposited at the proper area, do not live up to the promise of providing any new insight in the lore of Gielinor. Instead they provide little more wisdom than your average fortune cookie, and an abysmally low amount of Divination experience for the effort involved.

     

    Really -- then again, what more should one expect after, effectively, "playing hoops with Guthix"? :rolleyes:

  3. I'm not sure why anyone would waste time, at taxpayers' expense, trying to prove someone fits nicely into a box labelled "American", or "Canadian", or "German", or whatever, when it's silly to assume that an individual's self-defined nationality is dependent on the same factors as everyone else.

     

    * insert inevitable joke here about "needing a long-form birth certificate that's not from Kenya" *

  4. I am a product of immigrant run amok. My father is a Pashtun by origin, but his family emigrated to Canada from Brazil, and prior to that they resided in Trinidad, where they had originally been transferred as slaves from what is now Northern Pakistan/Southern Afghanistan.

     

    My mother is of Italian descent.

     

    Both my parent were born in Canada and if you ask them, or me, what my nationality is, we all say "Canadian".

     

    That is, until the FIFA World Cup is on -- then all bets are off ... :rolleyes:

     

    :lol:

  5.  

     

    Gnome deliveries - waste, kill it.

    I actually love this minigame. It could use a rework for making the food production easier, and also for balancing the rewards, but removing it is completely unnecessary.

     

    It's not necessarily a bad game I just don't really see a use for it in the game as a whole and the way the game has evolved it needs a use or it is pointless. I mean the gnome foods can still be made and enjoyed without it and none of the rewards are really useful. So all it has left for it that is good is a very basic take x to y mechanic that is pretty generic and does not need that content to exist to be reused.

     

    I like the idea of a delivery based minigame, I just don't think it fits well with the gnomes and the game has so little else going for it I'd rather see it scraped to allow the mechanic to be reused in something bigger and better.

     

     

    Careful though, what you wish for. Scrapping this mini-game could thereafter turn items like gnome scarves and gnome goggles into "discontinued items ..." :huh:

  6. Somethings on how different floors are:

    :All rooms tend to have monsters in them.

    :Every room is considered a Guardian Door room even your entrance is blocked off until everything is dead.

    Up until this point, all I could think of was “… well, that’s nothing ‘new’, is it?” :lol:

     

    *mumble mumble* fricken guardian door rooms everywhere with level 198 mages in them *mumble mumble* <_<

  7. Update: he wrote to Jagex and made an inquiry for the account but they denied it. Not sure why. It's not easy getting straight answers from a distracted teenager by text message. :rolleyes:

     

    FYI - this is my "other" son - the one that stopped playing Runescape in 2007 or so. He hasn't used the account since that time and has no way of recollecting what the password for the account had been.

     

    It's an old account which he had started in or around October 2002. For all intents and purposes, it may even have been purged for all I know. Of course, he's confident that Jagex should keep "back ups" of all their data, so - you know - it should be accessible.

     

    Yes - he's one of THOSE kids that doesn't listen to his mother ...

     

    :lol:

  8. I didn’t buy anything and I did my 15 tasks at the same time I did my daily Jack of Trades + 5 other skills:

     

    *Activate Jack of Trades*

     

    Made one (1) flask from Red sandstone in bank – Crafting (1)

    Teleport to Varrock – Magic (2)

    Chopped Tree with Adze and it ignited – Woodcutting + Firemaking (3) + (4)

    Chopped Tree and Made Shield bow – Fletching (5)

    Range Attack Varrock Guard with Bow + Bonecrusher in Inventory – Range + Prayer (6) + (7)

    Melee Attack Varrock Guard – Attack, Defence, Strength + Life Points (8) + (9) + (10) + (11)

    Pickpocket Varrock Guard – Thieving (12)

     

    *De-activated and cashed in my Jack of Trades at Xuan*

     

    Lodestone to Catherby

    Pick herb plot - Farming (13)

    Fished at Catherby Beach – Fishing (14)

    Cooked Fish at Range in Catherby - Cooking (15)

     

    Took me less time to do these 15 skills than it did to type this …

  9. ... Jagex could invent the chocolate teapot and you would find a way to defend it.

     

    Huh? :huh:

     

    Is this one of those "English" colloquialisms?

     

    :unsure:

    Sorry, I thought it was quite a common expression: "About as useful as a chocolate teapot"

     

    It must be a cultural thing. I’m a cross-mix of Italian and Pashtun (via Brazil and Trinidad), born in Canada and raised mostly in Quebec – so it’s not a common phrase in my experience … :P
