Noobs say the funniest things!
"Members' object" should be changed to "Noob magnet". -.-

Touchscreen monitor?
Does Nintendo DS's touchscreen count? I tried it once, kinda hard, but woodcutting is easy with it.

Skill Training Efficiency.
I use the fun (or the least boring) methods, for example, to get 43 prayer I did Holy Grail and One Small Favour quests. I love quests. To get 70 attack, I just clicked 'accurate' and didn't change until I got it. I didn't even train it purposely. Same for 65 defence. Boring skills? I don't train them, except maybe for quests. Or by playing minigames. This includes mining, smithing, herblore, fletching, cooking, thieving (though Pyramid Plunder IS quite fun), slayer (I always get the worst assignments, like bronze dragons, three batches of harpie bugs in a row etc), and farming.

Skillers
I like challenges and if possible, I avoid fighting in games. So of course I have a skiller, in fact TWO, the difference being that with one I only train Mining and Smithing and with the other I train all non-combat skills. My all-around skiller is called Luftballons (anagram: Blast of Null :D), and the miner guy is called Miner Tiigon (anagram: Mine Rioting :P). I still can't understand why I made that miner account, Mining and Smithing are my least favorite skills :wall: Even simple quests such as The Knight's Sword are also much more fun with skillers, because of the added challenge. I will probably get membership for Luftballons someday, but her skills are really low at the moment (46 or 47? woodcutting being the highest...), so maybe a little more training, such as 60 woodcutting (which is really boring, as I've already done it twice) should be done first :) (I still laugh at the "Blast of Null" anagram, though I realized it months ago...)

TzHaar Translations
How about "fire rock" = lava? Would make a bit more sense I think :)

What graphics mode do you use?
SD (I still call it low detail) with lowest graphics. My new computer could easily run HD with best graphics, but it doesn't look like RuneScape should. My old computer was so slow that even SD lagged, so I'm used to it. I use the lowest graphics in most games, even if I could run better ones. I want good games, not eye-candy!

Organized or messy?
My bank is a complete mess, tabs help a bit though. The only thing I had organized before tabs were runes, I had them all next to each other. And coins have always been in the top row.

Post all RS Screenshots, Videos, and Sounds here!
It's still there :D

Stuff you could NEVER get into
Rap, 1337, Disney movies, Internet Explorer, World of Warcraft, any TV programs except The Simpsons, religion, Xbox (original/360), PS3, clothes which cost over 20, cosmetics of any sort, most music released in the last 5 years, smoking, big phone bills (over 2 is big IMO ;)). I could continue the list nearly forever.

Final Fantasy Discussion thread
For sure! I bought a NEW copy in FF9 in February (yes, this year) and it's so awesome :D I actually played it in 2002-03, but that wasn't my own game. Of course FF4 is even better. But you got something a bit wrong... Cecil>Zidane>every other character (besides Luigi) Now it's much better :)

Do YOU Pirate Music?
Also, people who download music illegally are more likely to pay for it (weird, isn't it?). :?
-
How often do you click to see someones name/level?
Never. I can estimate players' levels from their equipment, though I don't really care.

Noobs say the funniest things!
My IQ is around 140 (which is much higher than normal) and I can't solve a Rubik's Cube -.-

[How to convince someone to get a new internet browser]
Just install Mozille Firefox Portable Edition on a flash drive, mp3 player, or something that is yours... It doesn't leave a single bit of data on the hard drive, so what could they complain about? Myself I had the same problem in 2006, I just downloaded Firefox and installed it without permission, my dad didn't like it at first but now he couldn't dream of going back to IE :P

Random numbers before certain keys
Does the on-screen keyboard work? If it does, then a new keyboard is everything you need. Fortunately they're pretty cheap :)

Post pictures of your pets here
My very big and very lazy cat. I call him "Tank" :P This cat is sometimes a bit annoying, for example just yesterday it jumped on a table and hit a (full) coffee cup... guess the rest :
-
Do you think animals are consciously aware they are living?
Depends on the animal, I think my cat is only aware of food for example :P
-
Avast!?
I've used it since 2007, and zero problems so far. Great program IMO.

Ring tone that makes boobs bigger
I have just one word to say: FAKE. I don't believe anything as insane as this.

Inaccessible Files
Your flash drive may be corrupted. You should try formatting it. Remember to copy your files before you do this. Even if it isn't corrupted, you should do this sometimes, it at least increases speed if nothing else. You could also try another program and see if it happens again.

Windows 7 beta
I can certainly agree about being comfortable with, and liking XP. dsavi is one of the people who tried to convince me Vista is a wonderful operating system, and that my PC wasn't powerful enough to run it. :lol: I think there's a certain ignorance around what people want from an OS, and what is really important. :| XP and even Vista can be installed with really slow computers, believe it or not! :P So I'm pretty sure your computer would run Vista :) Here's some screenies: [hide=Slow Windows computers]XP running on a really underclocked Pentium 1, not mine: (note: it's actually 8 MHz, XP lies a bit) http://www.winhistory.de/more/386/Screenshot8mhz_system.gif' alt='Screenshot8mhz_system.gif'> Boot time is 30 mins and the CPU usage is 100% with no apps open, now that's slow! This is the slowest Windows computer in the world as far as I know. And here's a slow Vista, again, not mine: The processor is actually 90 MHz, Vista has some problems with it... Desktop uses 100% of resources here too. Crazy RAM usage compared to XP. And here's my experiment with a unofficial, "lite" version of Windows XP: Now this version of Windows XP is so little that it boots in about 2-3 mins even with just 6 MHz of processing power (the average for MS-DOS, BTW :P)! But it has no wallpaper, no themes except Windows Classic, only a few Windows apps (Notepad, Paint, Calculator etc.), no support for multiple accounts, no IE, Outlook Express or Windows Media Player (I don't care about them anyway). CPU usage without programs: 42%! (Nice number, isn't it?) It can actually run some very small games, however Notepad lags. Great version of Windows XP :D[/hide] I wonder what's the absolute minimum power for Windows 7? BTW, XP is the best Windows so far I think ;)

What's your Favorite computer?
It was an Intel processor I think, but certainly not a Pentium. Well, it was just a guess. Either an Xeon (unlikely), Pentium or a Celeron. Too bad I don't have that computer anymore so I can't check it. But I think it was a Celeron.

32 bit or 64 bit?
Install XP on it, of course! There's a 64 bit version of XP too ;) Yep, but since XP 64 was made for the businesses, it has [cabbage] loads of compatibility problems. Oh, sorry, didn't know that... :oops:
