Somebody give this man an award.

Alright, I read the entire post. Now to address every point and answer every question. I assume that's what you want. Oh and I didn't bother to read 10 pages before making my own reply, so if something I say has already been said and I'm repeating it, then sue me. For the record, my Private Chat was set to Friends when I played a few years back. Now lets see here... "(1.) They're too good/busy to talk with people who aren't on their friends list." Well! Its not that I'm too good or busy to talk to you (and if I am I'm not aware of it but I'd be flattered to hear it), its basically that I just don't want to talk to you. I'm not very social in games, as opposed to in real life, and 90% of the time I usually couldn't care less about what most people are saying. The people I do want to talk to are on my Friends list, and if I want to talk to you I'll put you on my list. Or simply ask me to add you, and if you don't seem like the type of person I'd want to punch in the throat I'll probably do it. "(2.) They're unwilling to help anybody who might be PMing them for help with something." Hah, I like this one. Its completely true. I'm not going to go out of my way to help you if I don't know you, I'm not your babysitter. If someone on my Clan Chat or in Public Chat asks me for some help quickly, then yeah, I'll do it if it isn't terribly inconvenient or out of the way, but I'm not the damn Yellow Pages. Oh, and to tie this one into your real-life cell phone analogy, do you ever call a random phone number and ask the person who picks up for help? I think not! "(3.) They are at a higher level above those who have their Private Chat set to 'On'." Is it a known fact that all high level players have their Private Chat set to Friends? Or that all low level players have it set to On? Must have missed that memo... "(4.) Say you delete a dear old friend from your friend's list because he hasn't been on for a long time (or for whatever reason) and then A week or so later he starts playing again. If you have Private Chat set to 'on' then can PM you, you can re-add him and your friendships will be restored. If you have it set to 'Friends', though, he won't be able to PM you and might even think that you don't play anymore - your friendship won't and never will be restored." I never deleted a friend on my list, unless they gave me a very good reason to do so. My Friends List was about 60% full before I even joined the Tip.It Forums, which is why I couldn't add so many people that asked me to. I always told them my Friends List was full, and that's why. I'll post it too if you want, back in my day 200 Friends filled a Member's list and that's how many I had, and more than half the names are non-Tip.Iters. Now, onward to the questions! - What do you have you're private chat set to and why? By answering this I'd just be re-typing some of the things I said earlier. Refer to above for answer. - When (if ever) you have Private Chat set to 'on' about how often do you get spammed by other players? (e.g. once a day, twice a day once a week, etc...) Seeing how I've never set it to On I can't answer this question. - In what ways do you agree/disagree with what I'm saying. Explain. Again, refer to above. I addressed every point clearly. For those who have not yet grasped the concept, I disagree. So yes, I disagree with you. I disagree with every word you wrote. I find it ridiculous to consider people "lame and arrogant" for wanting to have their Private Chat set to Friends, if I want to enjoy some privacy and choose who I want to hear from and who I don't want to hear from, then to hell with you because I'm going to use that choice. You sure don't get that kind of option in real life.

Haha nice dude. But yeah, definitely send me a message when you hit 85, I have a ton of old maps and ore spawn times and everything I used to use when I did my Runite mining, hence the massive amount of bank I had haha. I'll send them your way, just keep it to yourself its an inside secret ; )

HURR DURR HURRAY! 84 Mining, one to go fool. Hey send me a message on the forums when you hit 85, if you plan to use it I have a lot of tips/maps/info I can send you so you can make some serious bank. I also may have to make that the first quote ever in my signature, greatest thing I've ever seen written on these forums.

Yep, sorry its kinda late here... fixed it.

Wow. I just came on to look at some old friend's blogs and saw the poll, it seemed interesting so I voted.... 64% vote Yes.... just... wow. That is pathetic. Now I'm not sure here, I haven't played this game for almost 3 years so I may not be up to speed, but I'm going to assume its about clans of merchants that use the Runescape economy to make money. Well, to these people I say this, "Good for you! You've learned to take advantage of others for your own gain, prepare for success!". To those of you who voted Yes in this poll, if you're actually being manipulated by these people and spending double or triple the price on said items then congratulations, you are a puppet. Get used to it. (Before I go on I understand that there is a difference between being manipulated and having the money to throw around to get your item NOW rather than waiting for it to drop in price, just for the record.) If you voted Yes because you want an easier time in Runescape then hey, I have news for you. There's a real economy right outside your window or door, literally a few feet away from where you're sitting now. Now some of you may be from Europe or Canada or anywhere else around the world so I can't speak for you, but any American will know our economy is pretty damn harsh. Compared to it, the Runescape economy is a cake walk. If you need merchants and price manipulators to be banned from Runescape so you can manage your money better, then God only knows whats going to happen to you in the real world. Boy do I feel sorry for you. Looking through posts, I also see some people voted Yes to reduce scamming.... seriously? Look buddy, you have eyes, try them out sometime... I'm sure they work great. For those who haven't already noticed, when ANYTHING changes in a Runescape trade window there's a nice big flashing red message letting you know what happened... and if you've already hit Accept then it cancels and you have to re-Accept. Nobody should ever get scammed, and if you do get scammed then clearly you're not very familiar with the Trade Window and hopefully you learn your lesson. And to those of you saying its wrong to cheat people out of their money because its immoral and such.. well look around you. See a guy driving a $100,000 sports car? There's a 10% chance he made it on honest wages, 90% chance he cheated a crap-load of people out of their money to get it. Personally I'm a social Darwinist, I believe the strongest survive and the weak are trampled to help them rise. If you have a skill you should use it, and having the mental capacity and intelligence to take advantage of other people to fuel your own gains and welfare sure as hell counts as a skill in my book. Welcome to the world, its a pretty nasty place.

No u

W T F ^

My favorite part was when you start a whole new paragraph with "HURR DURR HURRAY"... just amazing :thumbup:

Oh my god I just looked at that screenshot and remembered how much I miss kicking people out of Blogscape chat, ahh memories...

What is this GMT you speak of?

Honestly, I might still have membership on my account. I don't know if I canceled it or not and I spend way too much money (damn women....) to notice five bucks a month here or there. I'll look into it later. Also, knowing what time this get-together is going down might help, its a crucial part of the information. Oh, and you didn't answer my question.

No, if you win at bingo though you get one that says "I quit that damn game and didn't even get a t-shirt". Available in 3 colors.

So, how about an open bar at this party?

Welcome to real life. Please take this brochure and pick up your free t-shirt and pin at the table to your left.

I blame the schools.

This is a smiley face: : ) FEAR ITS POWER.

So this one time, I stuck this net in the water and pulled out this fish... it was pretty cool. I noticed you've done it quite a few times yourself.

Idk when ya free cutie ; )

So whens our date?

Fish aren't that yummy. Its all about Nilla Wafers. Anyone who disputes this shall be swiftly terminated via "lazer". Edit: Exceptions include Dos Equis beer battered fish tacos at this amazing Mexican place by my house, but thats it.

If I could make a suggestion for where to get 99 Fishing. There's an awesome spot just south of Port Sarim, its like a beach and there's palm trees and stuff and its pretty sick for a screenshot. For me it was also where I first began leveling Fishing (the only spot is a shrimp spot) but its still a good place nonetheless.

I frown on cannibalism.

Tigers and oranges are from different continents, no way they could interact by the forces of nature (unless one remembers Monty Python's discovery of seagulls carrying coconuts). Sunny Delight, simply, is the greatest thing ever bestowed upon humanity by the universe. Come on dude, give me somethin challenging.

Explain it pls. FYI to the guy who isn't in on the joke, me and Saru have an ongoing contest of making highly irrelevant posts on this blog. And to Saru, if you gotta eat me then you gotta eat me. But I'm not gonna just lay there and take it. No homo.
