Yep, it's time JaGex recognise that the "ex" in their name now stands for "experiment" instead of "experts".

So you agree his paranoia IS justified? When chances are that slim, it is not justified. Anyway, paranoia is rarely justified unless it is diagnosed. :wink:

I also heard dozens of people that got banned for botting that claimed they never used macros.... The thing is, it's pretty easy to spot at least 50-100 bots on any given world, meaning that about 5-10% of the playerbase is botting. Having said that, my experience in life shows me that people tend to overexagerate, put themselves in a better light and plainly lie whenever it helps them. When someone reports you for botting, chances are if you are not botting, you will never get ban, so your paranoia is not justified. If Jagex banned player from a single report, or multiple report of only one occurance, their banning system would be so bad, nobody would pay to play this game.

Have you ever been banned for "standing there"? If not, why so angry?

Will you have enough bank space for the new TT rewards?

This. Just like it's been established that Tip.it is now filled with cheaters.

Anyone know if the new clues require specific quests to get to?

When you say you make 3M per hour, do you include the cost of potions, degrading armor, food and summoning scrolls? Yes. Gross profit averages around 3.5-4M an hour, costs run 500K-750K/hr... TD's is 3.5M net expected gain per hour (4M gross); DK's I've been averaging 3.5M/hr gross 3M/hr net Dang... I really should start MHing... lol

Look at the lvl four rewards... http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/treasure_trails_rewards probably meant stats...

I know what I'm buying back though! Now to see if I can buy it back for lower than I sold it when they announced new clues...

Sure thing bud, let's do that after we secure our petroleum interest in the middle east first. After all, with all the puppet dictators we helped thrive in south america during the 70s and 80s, claiming back what was ours should not be a problem... You make it sound like this never happen IRL.

grats mate, 80+ in every skill is a very nice achievement and also something I look forward to.

The vibe I'm getting form Tip.It these days is that I would be more valuable to the economy by botting my levels and cash... What they fail to mention is that while I would bot the so-called "boring skills", I would have more time to do the fun stuff, such as Pking and MHing... What they also fail to mention is that I would find myself with more cash than I would deserve, so I would not feel too bad to pour a couple hundred millions in very high endgame gear... So I would be competing for boss or pking with an unfair advantage. So tip.it, answer me this: would I be good for the economy and the balance of the gameplay if I started botting?

Erw J has reached the 1,8B xp milestone, his next step is 100M xp WC before Lan passes him for rank 6.

Update of the top 9 1- Skiller (formerly Aasiwat - 2,15B) : He's still losing ground to Zarfot (75M xp lead) and still mostly training construction even though he has been maintaining an healthy pace, he's on pace to reach 2,4B by year's end. Coming Milestones: 100M slayer which could make him the first player to get 10 skills at 100Mxp (currently leading all players with most skills over 100M with 9. 2- Zarfot (2,07B) Zarfot is enjoying the 2nd highest pace form the top 9 with a mix of slayer, fletching, WC and FM. Coming milestones: 200M fletching (6th skill) . 3- Jdelacroix (2,05B) : He's been mostly training herblore lately even though he was seen slaying a bit and doing a mix of magic and smithing. Coming milestones : 200M construction (on the ice for the last 2 weeks), 200M herb and 200M firemaking (5th, 6th and 7th 200M skills). 4- Gertjaars (2,02B) inactive. 5- Drumgun (2,00B) : The 5th player to reach 2B, Drumgun is enjoying the highest pace form the top 9 training both fletching and thieving lately. . Coming milestones: 100M fletching (9th skills at 100M, which would tie him with Skiller for most). 6- Erw J (1,79B) : Not much new from him, training WC at moderate speed. Coming milestones: 1,8B total (this week for likely ) and 100M WC, as well as 100M summoning even though nothing indicates he will get it 7- Lan (1,78B) : We've seen last week what happens when someone saves a lot of effigies and unload them all in one day. Lan is still mostly training slayer and uses his dragonkin lamps on RC. Coming milestones: 100M ranged 8th skills at 100M 8- Kingduffy (1,68B) Probably the best balanced character in this game, Kingduffy has been training slayer lately and like the past several weeks his rank 8 is pretty much locked for the next month at the very least. Coming milestones: nothing in sight! 9- Paperbag (1,59B) : Has slowed considerably since getting his 6th skills at 200M. Coming milestone: 1,6B xp. Other notable players: Nintendo Swe (1,58B), Elias (1,56B), Telmomarques (1,51B)

Drumgun has officially became the 5th player to reach the 2B mark. Expect him to grab rank 4 from Gertjaars later this week. I can only see Lan getting to 2B before the year ends, unless Kingduffy suddenly feels like upping his pace. I'll make a proper update later tonight.

yeah mostly due to summoning. Read up like 5 pages ago, you'll see what happened.

Yep he's getting 6-8M xp a day... he will get 2B before the week-end is over on his way to passing Gertjaars in the middle of next week for rank 4. It will be a matter of time before he passes Jdelacroix and probably Zarfot too, although these guys are getting 2-4M xp a day. For comparison's sake, Skiller (Aasiwat) is getting between 1-2M xp a day lately. Btw, I talked to a friend of Suomi who told me that after getting mining, smithing and magic to 200M, he was gonna tackle Dungeoneering. That would mean he would start dungeoneering around late september, here's hoping for him (and us!) that batch 2 is released on his best timing. Thank you West Ocean for that insider's info.

Nice collection mate, surprised by the low amount of god rune armor, but nonetheless very nice loot especially the robin. I did about 500 clues and only got 1 too.

From an observer's point of view, saying that Jagex sucks with deadlines is pretty fair. But from a consummer's point of view, saying Jagex sucks and not punishing them by either canceling membership or stop playing is the equivalent of saying: you guys can do no wrong, I'm still gonna throw you my money!

Thanx for the advices guys, but I'm fine getting my 100K xp hunter per week catching grenwalls for strange rocks. As for investing, I might buy some frost bones for my 3 prayer brawlers, then go all in for 95 prayer, but I'm cheap and this might also never happen. I'm the kind of guy who bought a bonecrusher for marginal prayer XP... so far it has given me around 50K xp.

What's the Xp rates for this rioting skill? I might try it someday when I'm bored...

One of the craziest player around! What are your future plans for this account?

grats mate, FM to me is a pain. good luck on your future goals!
