Daily Challenges & Noticeboard
Except when the challenge costs more than the regular methods that give good xp. You still get the xp for the task + a reward. So it works out very well in my opinion. It's great when they give you back what it cost too!

XP outfits [Skill Gear and Animal Outfits - September 27th]
tbh the xp outfits are not a huge thing for me due to the time it takes to earn. I am glad they boosted them though. 5% makes a lot more sense than 2.5%

Daily Challenges & Noticeboard
I think they give you the reward for whichever is higher (the cost of materials, or the net gain from selling result)

You have been banned!
Systems and software interact in strange ways, and sometimes you can end up screwing things totally unrelated by having something like array access out of bounds, or pointer access that ends up causing issues. Some typos can cause huge problems. They fixed the back end, but the server reset (is this the same as a rollback?) to undo what had happened. My guess is they don't want to undo any real bans on accident.

Botany Bay & Ozan Quest Double Bill - Sept. 26th, 2012
There is the three strikes thing.... We'll see how it goes though...

We have RSC, why not RS2 [LD]?
There are a few issues here. The bosses are actually a lot more difficult to fight, because you lack the gear and skills of 2012 rs, especially prayers and summons like we are used to. It is a lot more difficult to fight kalphite queen then. Also, no loot share system, so who gets the items in a spec fest is really difficult to determine. But you are right, none of the problems of current rs are solved by going bckwards.

Future Update Discussions
I...what. I thought the blue fur costume was the dog (or at the very least a fox.) Well...uh, whatever I guess. Maybe it will look better in-game. Let's hope. I think it has a lot of promise but could go horribly wrong.

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
I don't want auto, ability, auto, ability either, I would just like a tad (5-10%) more time between ability clicking either through letting us queue or at least making the interfaces for cooldowns cleaner.

Auras
It's not multiplicative because testing has shown it's better then that, but it's not additive either because it doesn't increase the total by quite enough, if I understand it enough..

When will the fish mask be worth over 10m coins?
If you could still get santa suit, it loses the appeal of being exclusive and becomes less desirable. Also note that by the time Santa hats and Halloween masks were released, the players knew they would be rares.

The Evolution of Combat: BETA discussion
I'd love to wield jewels!!! On topic, I listened to the live stream finally. It was pretty interesting, a few highlights - * mod mark doesn't know how to answer the question, he just kept changing it to something else... * The other two developers seemed very knowledgeable and definitely working on making the system good. * bind system will be re-done * still tweaking beta, and will continue until it's right. * completely lack the understanding of how much you have to click at high-end content already -- I already have to control steel titan/yak, possibly cannon, potions, and now abilities, which take a LOT of focus. The ability rate needs to be toned down a little so that there is a little more reaction time between each ability. It really didn't get answered by "people controlling abilities will do more damage!" That isn't a good enough answer. My problem is that I can't focus on the abilities properly * Definitely they have a lot of solid ideas * no beans spilled on rs3 :c * a few beans spilled about possible content like lvl-up weapons, and skill related abilities and plans to increase high end content because now they have the ability to add these more high level ideas back I still feel like they don't understand what we want out of momentum, definitely a good direction for AFK, but it isn't quite powerful enough.. They REALLY need to be more streamlined and on top of releasing update news. More beta patch notes, and more overall contact to us would be nice. Off Topic:, Hi, Mod Pi :) Keep reading the threads!

why do you play Runescape?
I play because I enjoy it, it fills time, and I meet a lot of interesting people while playing. Also, I like the very nice mix of competition, and chatting and the balance of low-apm and high-apm methods for everything.

No *wonder* it didn't work for me. I can still use the script to parse the input if you want, or I can send it to gemeos if he has cygwin or a unix machine.

Behind The Scenes 19: Two New Quests and Al Kharid Rework!
This I think is the first full on quest about a specific hero instead of a quest where they just "appear" for a little.

200M in all Skills
I wrote an awk script to format the text from Gemeos' time updates, but it relies on a few things which tip.it doesn't support. Namely, tip.it posts ignore tabs (treat them as 1 space instead of tabbing correctly). I also tried to find a monospace font or use the code tags, but neither of those actually treats input as monospace. I can't easily format the output without manually typing spaces till it previews good. This is not worth the time. The normal format will have to do.

Hidden Update: Bots Dying
I'm at work. Can anyone check grotworms? :)
-
200M in all Skills
It's easy to automate output like E Trader's.. I'll write a script later tonight that can do it. Don't tell gemeos not to do it.. he does a whole lot of work with his calculator.. Don't want that information to disappear. I'll see what I can do about creating a way to automate formatting the output.

I'd love a video of that if possible, it sounds awesome!!
- Well Known RWT'rs banned.

What type of pures, though?

I am not sure if all armors give the same prayer bonuses as before though...?

Well Known RWT'rs banned.
Ban them because you assume they will rwt again? That doesn't sound right to me, particularly if they stopped doing it for a long time. No. If you know they RWT (have evidence) and you don't ban them instantly, that only allows them time to recoup and move gold. However, this relies on an assumption that may not be true. *) You know for sure they have sold gold. I'm not talking about players who may have come back, but once someone's done RWT on such a large scale, just because they've "stopped" now since you didn't get them at the first ban... (for no good reason) you just allowed them to "escape".
