I'm going to have to say that that was one of the best quests they've released lately. I especially liked the disclamer after the long cutscene. :lol: Very well done. =D>

Seriously, does it really matter? Sure it might be nice if they gave people more warning before an update, but why should Jagex have to warn everyone about an update that most people can expect at about the same time every week? Although you're probably going to reply to this by saying that it won't take much work to do this, I'm going to have to say I'd rather have them spend that time on something worthwhile rather than on something as unneeded as this.

Well, I just got sniped by Foooman for attacking the wrong iron dragon. :XD: I wish you all the best of luck on your searching for/hiding from each other!

How is he proving your point? He even thwarted the arguement that you seem to think beats his. If the GE were able to keep up with the "True" values of these high end, low demand items, then people would gladly use it, but, as it stands right now, the only way for sellers/buyers to reflect supply and demand is through junk trades and, as I've stated before, the only ways to fix this are to wait for the true price to somehow match that of the GE (which can take months depending on how far off the prices are), have a bunch of people practically give away their money to lucky people on the other end of the GE, or Jagex could step up and fix the prices and the GE so that it becomes a viable option. In essence, unless you want to get a bunch of uber-rich people together and throw away a bunch of money to correct the prices (and probably watch them end up getting stuck again, anyways), all we can do is keep pointing out the faults of the GE and hope Jagex somehow gets around to fixing them. As for demand, there is plenty of it. If there wasn't any demand, then how are people selling these items for so much? This just shows that the prices of the items being traded with junk accurately reflect supply and demand and that the GE's prices do not.

\ \ \ WOOT!!!! Only 2 more to go!! \ \ \ I have also decided that I will, from now on, only be posting (on the front page) the picture of my latest quest rather than having a database of them all. ;)

It's not that people don't think it works (it actually works great for most items an average 'scaper would use), it's that more expensive items, due to the relatively small number being traded, don't have their prices updated as much as they should to reflect supply and demand and this, in turn, forces people to resort to junk trading to get the price that does reflect supply and demand. As for it "breaking" the system more, I'd like to see you use up millions (more likely billions) of coins to correct the prices of all the items currently being traded with junk. Because, unless Jagex steps up and actually fixes these prices and the GE, that, along with just waiting for the true price to match up with the GE's again, is the only way to get prices back to where the ge is a viable option for those selling/buying these sorts of items. Again, if the GE did its job like it should and kept up with supply and demand and didn't have all these price floors and ceilings, junk would neither exist nor have a reason to exist.

No the true price is the GE price. Like it or not what Jagex say an item is worth, is what it is worth. Adding "junk" to it isn't selling it for more, it's adding to it's value. Also if people do junk trade then the GE will never have the "correct" price in it as most junk trades consist of med price. Do you not forget that Jagex said that we, the players, would have control of prices after the ge? If they had stuck with this and not put in price floors and ceilings and made the ge actually work (as in looking at both uncompleted and completed trades rather than just completed trades), there never would have been junk items or the need for them in the first place. The "true" price, in any economy, is determined by supply and demand and reflects the value an item holds for everyone in that economy. If you want to believe in all of the prices of the ge, go right ahead, but don't tell others that they need to lose a bunch of money to fix prices that aren't anywhere near their true value when it's not their fault that Jagex failed to implement a system that works properly.

Maybe, rather than causing a bunch of trouble for Jagex, people could just not hold events on Mondays and Tuesdays at about the time updates usually occurr. Why does everything have to be blamed on Jagex when, if you think about it, the players already know of the possibility of an update hapening and can easily avoid it?

Well, after Rocking Out came out, I had to get my quest cape back, so I went and got all of these levels (the crafting ones I just got because I had the gold out anyways): Here's the quest pic: Oh, and I got this prayer level a while ago.

As seen throughout this thread, this matter is subjective and all depends on who you ask. Personally, I don't think people should determine how much they respect someone because of what 99's they have (or don't have, for that matter). Sure, It's cooler to see someone with one (or more) of those "hard-to-get" 99's than say cooking (one of the most common 99's, and rightfully so (I got it in about 2 weeks (after spending about 4 months getting 99 fishing :XD:))), but that just isn't one of the factors that influences my respect for people. Now, if you were to change the subject to the value a certain 99 would hold for people, then this changes things drastically and I would have to say that I value certain 99's more than others, but, again, these values are going to differ from person to person and any form of concensus on the issue is practically impossible to reach. This, in turn, means that it is pointless to argue about which ones are more valuable than others and is the reason I will not be posting my own views of different 99's.

Out of the ones I've seen on here so far, I'd have to say that my favorite is "Springtime" (check the first post on this page). I like the combination of light brown/tan and green. Also, the idea for home-made skins is great, but I don't think that, should the admins (or whoever decides on new skins) find a pre-made skin that they like, they should turn it down just because it wasn't made just for TIF.

I have re-updated my blog through the level-up pictures section. I am unsure about whether or not I will update the rest of the blog or if it even needs updating (I know there are missing links to my latest quest pics, but does anyone actually look at those? And I know the bank pic is extremely outdated (can you say last October? :XD:) and I will try to update that soon). Now, I'm going to turn on some music while I study for my English final and slay metal dragons. :mrgreen:

Thanks for all the hard work to get TIF back up again! :mrgreen: I do not know if I'm just looking in the wrong place or whatnot, but, while trying to fix my blog, I noticed that you can't change the thread name anymore (changing the subject only changes thetext at the very top of the post). Again, thanks for all the hard work! Keep it up! EDIT: It seems to be fixed now. I'm guessing I was just looking in the wrong places and being bumb, though. :XD:

Another brassard!!! \ Not that I'm complaining about getting another barrows item, but I can't believe I've gotten 4 brassards and many other multiples and I still haven't gotten a spear. :XD:

Yeah. I just need 3 more (Karil top, Guthan spear, and Dharok great axe) until the sets I want will be complete. :XD: I'm trying, ok? :XD: Here are my latest drops:

:shock: :shock: That's a lot of levels for one day. Congratulations!!!! =D> =D> Keep up the work!!! :thumbsup:

:shock: :shock: You've done quite a bit since the last time I checked this. :XD: Congratulations on everything!!!!!! =D>

Nice work getting the range void and fire cape!! =D> If you want to redo your sig with your fire cape, just tell me and I'm there.

Not that I know of, but they're easy to get if you can get into Ogre place (Gu'Tanoth (the link is to the Knowledge Base article)). Just go to the market place and steal from the rock cake stall. You might only be able to have one at a time, but I'm not sure. :-k You could also try using the explosive potions that you can make after doing the Digsite Quest. I think they hit like 15 each time you drop one. :-k

Earth Warriors - Here's all you might want to know about them. Imps - Not sure if it's the best place, but there are quite a few that spawn just outside Falador's sout entrance. Jogres - There are quite a few on Karamja. Cross the river onto the area with the gnome glider and ship-building place. You can also find them in the cave where you get one of the things for the Jungle Potion quest. Lesser Demons - Probably under/in the Karamja volcanoe. I'm not sure about their other locations. Skeletons - Pretty much any dungeon has them. Varrock sewers and Edgeville dungeon for lower level ones, Barrows or the area outside of Elvarg's room for mid-level ones, and the Monkey Madness dungeon for high-level ones (don't fight these ones without prayer pots). Zombies - Pretty much the same as Skeletons except I can't remember where to find mid and high leveled ones. :XD: I hope this helps and good luck with the Champion Scrolls (if that's what you want to know about them for :wink: ).

Relaxing? Hmmmm... Maybe I should try that. :XD: Maybe I should get some stuff for Summoning too.... Pfft. Forget that, I'm going to go barrow some more. :XD: Have fun relaxing!!

I've gotten 3 more barrows items since my last post. Here they are: \ \ \ I have also removed the pictures of my barrows "drops" from the first post and replaced them with a list of all the barrows items and how many of each I have gotten. :D

To be completely honest, I'm not sure you can quit. It's not that you won't quit, but that you can't quit. :XD: Just kidding! I bet you could if you really tried. The only problem there being that you aren't very good at actually trying to do stuff. :XD:

Nice MTK reward you got there... Want to... uhhh... give me some of those seeds? :XD: And nice work on 67 farming!!! =D>

I guess you could say that. Tbh, I only want karil top, guthan spear and dharok great axe right now. :XD: Thanks. :D Here are my latest drops and levels:
