I've been told Diamond Bolts (e) are great for training but they cost alot. I've also been told Bone Bolts are good and they only cost between 2gp - 6gp in the exchange.

I would suggest doing the Family Crest Quest and obtain the gauntlets and enchant them to the Gold Gauntlets. You get 3 times the amount of XP you normally would. This means you can smith whatever you normally would (something alch-able in this case or something you can use to make other things) Or you could sell the gold bars. Either way best of luck to you.

I log off and go shopping, as girly as that sounds but if i tend to get a bit bored it usually means i need to do something different. :)

I'm rather intrigued by the poll results, I've been checking since posting and the results are fascinating one day it'll say they are glad the next it'll say they aren't.

Actually you are wrong, i bought this computer myself i worked hard to purchase this. I pay for the internet, i pay rent, i pay for the electricity/water/food and i pay for my own education. I don't rely on my mother for anything. I work Monday - Friday at a place an hour away from where i live. I self support myself. I don't think your in any position to judge me at all, just as i may have over stepped my boundaries with my above post. that still doesn't mean that these people in poverty would be be better off playing a computer game, there are alot of jobs out there for people willing to work for it. You don't need an education to get a half decent job. You just need to be enthusiastic and show initiative. Have you been on the runescape official forums previously? There used to be rant after rant about RWT. I have no idea how you've missed it. They aren't crying over losing money they want a game where your social status doesn't affect whom you are in game. Shouldn't someone who is not fortunate in real life be entitled to the same chances in game as opposed to someone who relies on daddy's credit card? Firstly you don't have to use the grand exchange, there are ALOT of people who sell for the prices they want the old way. I agree the staking needs to be fixed, or at least something along the lines of the new trading calculations where it is based on combat level and quest points which i think is fair. But the fact is Jagex will never rid of them, but because of the continuous complaints previously Jagex had to do something about it. They were called scum for not doing anything, and now that they've done something they are being called scum again they are caught in a lose lose situation. There will always be someone who is unhappy. Unfortunately for them its just the way the cookie crumbles. Just like when you and i disagree it can't be helped. Have you tried the tournament section of the dueling arena it is possible to win millions from there.

I don't need to do research on Gold Farming websites or anything for i follow the rules and know what they are. The problem is people don't play the game just for fun they want to be on top and they want to get their fast with very little effort. Even if the website has live support and a professional layout it doesn't mean anything, alot of those free ipod websites tend to have reasonably decent layouts and everything and yet they are still a scam. I never said that everyone who makes things for these places live in good conditions, but there are much more better ways to make money. As for the illness part there are diseases such as Repetitive Strain Injury & Deep Vein Thrombosis. As for why it was against the rules I'm sure someone of your intelligence could surely understand why it is against the rules. Jagex don't want someones social standing outside of the game affecting whom they are in the game. The reason it was so damaging is because some players found they weren't getting rewarded for their hard efforts. I never really had a problem with bots but i do understand where people were coming from. However, i do think you really should try things before you say its broken you might change your opinion on things.

Everyone has their own personal preference. Personally i like Zybez for clan related issues but i think tip it has a better community when it comes to fun events and skilling etc.

Do you play the game when you say to check updates? Because if you don't i really don't think you have a place to judge the updates until you do. The monitor system i think works fine, the prices change according to demand. If 140,000 people bought sharks for 748gp each, and 25,050 bought them for 850gp each the "Market Price" changes to what the product is commonly sold as. In no way are Jagex restricting amounts to be sold in the GE which is what i got from the above quote. The prices were almost all were very close to what they should've been. They would always be too high at first but as everyone started to use the Grand Exchange prices began to become a little normal. I have not done an economics degree, but how is having a Price Equilibrium going to affect anything? Both prices will ALWAYS change, so its never one set price its just set at a minimum and a maximum to stop people from getting scammed. Maybe i misread what you meant if i did im sorry. PKing is not gone, it has been replaced with the Bounty Hunter minigame. While i'll admit i prefer the old pking to Bounty Hunter, serious pkers love Bounty Hunter for the danger of it, there is risk such as: If you kill someone who isn't your bounty and pick up the drop you cannot leave for 3 minutes. A skull is shown above your head to show your wealth of the items you are carrying so you can't go in looking like an easy fight when you aren't. Alot of people have pushed aside and complained without even trying the updates to their full potential. To be honest i don't think anyone is stupid enough to lend a random person their account details to level to 99 for them. What will they do in the mean time? Also i think Jagex would be able to pick up the IP difference. While yes i've heard alot of high levelled accounts have been sold to RWT since the updates i don't think they'll get far. The fact is as i said no one who has half a brain will give their account details to a random person just to get 99 in a skill. I think what your doing is generalizing, not everyone who RWT is in a sweatshop type environment as you've described. Honestly, it isn't Jagex's fault that people need to break the set rules of a game just to make a living. Sure some factories may be dangerous, but there are safety measures to make them safe. They are far more at risk of illness sitting and clicking a mouse for most of the day than they are selling items door to door, or even working in a factory. So not only have you labeled the game of runescape communist but you are also blaming jagex for taking away the cheating that was against the rules from early on. You blame jagex yet, fail to realize that these people knew they were breaking the rules. If i robbed a convenience store and stole $4000 + supplies would it be okay because I'm poor? Same logic different scenario. Sorry if I've misread anything.

Merchanting isn't ruined it is easily done through the GE. That is if you know what to buy/sell.

No it just proves Jagex think of their players highly and think they wouldn't stoop this low. How do you know what Jagex thinks or does not think? Because they didn't go around finding way these items could be exploited. :wink:

We ask that before you make a topic you make sure you understand what you are ranting about, it saves flaming etc. This topic has been locked.

If you don't want anybody to have an opinion other than support then why did you even post this thread? the whole point of forums is for discussion.... and it cant be one way. This topic has been locked as you wish for no response to be made to your post that is against what you say. That is what happens when you post a topic, not everyone will agree with you. By all means I'm not saying you cannot post here, but a topic like this will only result in flaming.

Thanks for your post, although it has been locked as it is classified as it is not a rant. But thanks for posting though ... :shock:

Just a few notes to your post. I agree, but ring of forgings aren't hard to get. Second, tip it forums are not like RSOF you don't need to have a seperate supporters list you can fit a lot of it in the one post. :-w I've moved this to bugs/suggestions :) It will get a better response there.

I've edited your post to put the poll in to make it easier for you, i hope that wasn't a problem :)

Thanks heaps :)

No it just proves Jagex think of their players highly and think they wouldn't stoop this low. I agree it is frustrating :anxious:

While i understand why your frustrated I've locked this to prevent further flaming. The best way to show that your not a noob is firstly to spell correctly and write legible sentences. As some have said writing in caps is not going to help your case. The fact is there are some people who considered everyone else noobs. Hell i got a called a noob the other day in clan wars because i took on 12 people under 100 combat and won. Just ignore them its your best bet. ~ Shaz

Locked by request :)

Agreed.

They aren't gone they were just delayed. As for the idea it MIGHT work, but they'd find a way around it after a while.

There are numerous topics like this going around so I've locked this and i ask that if you wish to rant about players complaining about the update please read through tthis topic as it has a valid point. Thanks :) Also, this topic was going a bit of topic who cares if he is a traveling businessmen? Honestly.
