1) seller goes on to buyers account and makes the money for them via skilling, merchenting, macroing (anyway possible) - Too risky, since the buyer won't accept, as they very likely can just get scammed, or have the account banned for multiple logging etc. No buyers, RWT won't try it 2) selling accounts is RWT and has not yet been stopped by any update. - too risky, since they can't trasfer gold to a single account, so to raise that account would mean if it gets banned, they lose EVERYTHING, and have to start over. Not profitable. And most players don't want a whole account, they just want money on their current one. 3) seller macros or makes money any way possible onto a lvl 3 account and sells to a buyer who starts runescape from the begining with alot of money. Same as the above two, pointless to list them all. But again, the problem is if that one account with mils on it gets banned, they lose their time and profit. 4) seller power levels accounts to be around lvl 80-120 and saves all the monster drops or macros to get gp to keep on the account, buyer buys a main account with alot of money and starts a new runescape career there. Problem is that if the account being power leveled in question is banned, they start over... lose a lot of time. Plus, people don't want accounts, they want gold on their current one. If I buy that account, I have no way to transfer gold to my own account anyway, so it's pointless. 5) seller borrows buyers account. seller macros 3k gp between the two accounts non stop with an auto trading program until the buyer has the desired amoutn in his/her account. Doesn't work, since trading has 15 minute gap, and I'm SURE jagex could detect that two accounts have spam traded buyer wouldn't do, as it's too risky. And, it would take 83 hours of trading to trade 1million gold over. 6) buying levels is RWT and has not yet been stopped by updates. (when buyer pays someone to level their account) No, but a buyer is risking an entire account and so probably won't do this. it's just like macroing you're own account. Not many people do this anyway. 7) seller gets a few high leveled friends with the buyer and they all go to bounty hunter on a desserted world or german world and play until the buyer wins the gp bought. First, bounty hunter isn't on every world, and therefor should always be partly crowded anyway. This might work, but since you can't take gold into the bounty hunter, what's the point? Transfering items this way would be dangerous to, as it's easy to lose the items in question, and thus lose everything. Plus, to get all that money on one account, if it once get's banned, then they lose verything.. since they can't have multiple accounts bank into one (which is what they did) because there is no easy way to transfer money between characters. 8) seller drops bulks of 3k coins on the floor while buyer(s) pick it up and stop until buyer has the desired amount of gp. Doesn't work, since other players can only see up to 3k worth of items from you every 15 minutes, again takes forever to trade this way, and would take 83 hours of uniterupted unnoticed drop trading. 9) seller mass-hacks runescape accounts and sells to buyer For one, I doubt there is a hack this powerful against Jagex's servers, and if there was, we would KNOW about it. 10) selling membership is RWT and has not yet been stopped by updates. Yes, but why not buy from Jagex? THey have to hack the game to do that. And they can't sell for less than 5$ a month unless they hack it themselves, and thus get into legal troubles. 11) jagex staff spawn mills of gp secretly from andrew gower and sell it off via accounts and andrew gower and the other good behaved mods never find out. Possible, but why would they be HIRED?! and how would they trade it anyway? I hope that shows that RWT is "technically" possible, but not in large enough amounts to bother. In the 83 hours it takes to transfer 1million gold, I could make far more legitimately playing.

Heh, the revnants are kinda annoying. Though.. I managed to get 20k xp at the wildy arena before one slaughtered me

From what I see of this idea, I can't find logic holes. I agree that after a year, you can trade freely, is a good idea. I do agree that it has more holes than their current solution, but it stops ALMOST all the RWT, since once an account gets banned, they have to wait a whole year before they can use any of the gold that account farms. I suppose they could just stock up a year... so it might not work, but I do see the merits in SOMETHING like this system.

Do you think Jagex will make NPC diagonal movement work for all NPCs? Basically, eliminating all safe spots and stuff. Making Jad that much harder? Just a curious question... but what do you think they'll do...

The censor doesn't work very well, and often times I feel like it shouldn't exist, but it's there for a REASON. If it wasn't there, tons and tons of people would just be swearing every other word...

I make more money killing men with my lv 3 account I honestly doubt that. 12k an hour... that means getting 6000 drops of coins in an hour, assuming they drop 5 coins. That means at LEAST 6k men an hour. Given that there are only 3600 seconds in an hour, and I KNOW the respawn rate of men is fairly high, and I also know that they don't drop anything worth selling... Plus a level 3 account can't kill them in half a second. Sorry, but at least try to make statements that are true. I know you could have been making a joke, but there are far better uses of peoples time and wasting words on sarcasm.

Not to burst your bubble or anything, or to really butt into the conversation, but communism didn't fail, and in fact never really existed. What you are refering toas communism was in fact socialism (a totalitarian state, rather than a class-less state). True Marxist communism has never actually existed.

I wouldn't mind the ability to just look like other races... even if it would mess with quests. Maybe as part of make-over mage? BUt I don't want any race-specific things...

No, you just aren't allowed to teleport out of the tears of guthix. The "can't teleport" radius extends a few squares beyond the minigame. Try moving a few squares farther away.

There will either be: a) a fee to put up to sell, making you "pay" for the "bank" space. B) a limit to the number of things you can sell, c) or it will still take bank space till it's gone.

Timewarp back even more, where it was LUCKY if they released even just one or two new quests a year... Because the entire game was FREE!!!!

Most games have (if I remember) a limit, of how much you can auction or sell at one time. It kinda sucks, but I think they will have a limit. Maybe based on overall level, so that if you are really high, you can sell more, but if not, you can only sell 1-2 things. That would prevent abuse, I think.

Not that you weren't right, but reporting over and over is bad. Also, you should NEVER say you reported someone, just report, and ignore. It keeps you from SO many problems. Best of luck with your muteness.

You can get another, just go to the RPDT place, and ask. That's why the hand is a destroy, not a drop.

Lol, I've been playing forever. I used to be super super nerdy about it... then I got a girlfriend :P I talk about rs with friends who play, but I don't talk about it with people who just don't care. I'm a computer geek though :o Lol, I know to much, and all my friends know that, so they all ask me questions.

Laws through the balloons are actually extremely fast! Maybe not quite as fast as the abyss, but faster than the draynor walk to edge method. You just need a ton of duel rings, and some normal logs.

Prayer works fine, but they use both range and melee. Their range is much more powerful. They hit higher than 10, but only on melee. Range is 10 max, and very fast (so you should pro range) It also seems to be magic based damage, but range based prayer... At least, even in decent range defense, they ripped me apart with range. It's not to hard, with prayer armour, pro-range and a super set. You also need the crystal chime, to damage the monsters.

Interesting... :D But I think natures are easier to sell/shift to another player. There are far MORE buyers of natures than of cosmics.

And they could have done that without announcing it. It's not like everyone searches examines all the time lol Anyway, thye might be late... it's not a big deal anyway.

What is it with you and a personal vendetta against Jagex and accusing them of trying to kill off pures? Honestly, seems like any good weapon for an all around player is an excuse for you to bash Jagex for not satisfying pures. Face it, they are. Defenders, RFD Gloves, Torsos, 60 and 70 Prayers. They are trying to reward defence to the point that Pures can't stand up against them. No, they are just actually making defense useful to train. The value of a pure was the fact that defense didn't add to much to combat, compared to their higher hits. Jagex responds by creating a reason to level up defense. They are trying to make it so that no single style of fighting is ALWAYS better than any other. Without the recent additions, pures would nearly always win someone (of their or similar combat level) in a fight, because the defense took away from possible attack/strength and added virtually nothing. But now there are boots and prayers and other armors that give defense the reason to exist :)

It's not that rare when your password is so simple ;)

The thing is, I assume shops are still ok, so you can buy a pickaxe...

Of course people wouldn't exact follow the rules, but knowing you're in a world where the majority of people are similar in age would be good. I'm 16, I just want a more mature world to play in. you do realize, that by many standards, you are in a demographic that is considered immature by default :D This would be interesting. Often times I'll deal with 3-4 people in a row who I can conclusively say are between the ages of 9 and 12 and it's a little unsettling Also, in any given game, the general consensus is that the role playing servers will have slightly more mature people playing on them ( I haven't tried them out in RS yet though, I assume it holds true for the most part though) Actually, when I'm on the RP server I don't see that many people actually TRYING to role play... I would, if other people were with me ;)

I've got a scythe... lol, and I think a yo-yo... I missed the bunny ears, and I was not playing when chicken came out :(

I would recommend slayer on melee and defense (till 70 defense) then do some farming or agility. Agility helps you move around, and I find farming fun ^^ Also farming can give you big turn outs once you can do ranarr seeds. Some other fun stats include making goals for like 40+ all and 50+ all and so on. I would recommend smithing, so that when you do get around to doing quests, you have the skills. Basically, other than those, I would say just do quests and let requirements sent your goals :D
