Introduction

 

 

 

Well, if you clicked on this guide you most likely have at least once been annoyed by the players in runescape. This guide gives you the one thing that can beat a really annoying person. No, not a brain, but the knowledge and understanding of there point of view. I can't Guarantee(sp?) that thjs guide will help you but I hope so.

 

 

 

Overview by level

 

 

 

Combat 3 - 10: These guys are the newbies, they usually have no clue what there doing, you can usually find them in or around the Lumbrige area, but also extending as far as Varrock. Except for the occaisonal begging and scamming they will usally leave you be.

 

 

 

Combat 11-40: Watch out for scammers at this level, these people are usually put in the "noob" category, although I have found many of them to be mature and kind, (though usually not to people of lower levels). Sometimes these guys can cause some PKing annoyances to so be careful!

 

 

 

Combat 41-60: Usually, confident, and a tad bit cocky, these guys have it rough. Still not higher leveled enough to respected, and still to new to the game to always avoid being frauded by scammers. Though there are exceptions. I have met many a great skiller and staker at this level.

 

 

 

Combat 61-90: I have found that this group has players that are either really nice, or really bad. You know the jerk section? Well that minly consists of these guys. On the other hand many are quite helpful and happy to give advice to lower leveled people. They are very confident in there skills and are becoming much more dangerous competitors and even more shjrewd merchants.

 

 

 

Combat 91-126: There the top!!!! They are usually quite helpful and kind. But most often have either public chat off or PM to friends. Which is understandable. They get a lot of greif from beggars and jerks. But in the long run you are unlikely to ever be harrassed by one of these guys.

 

 

 

Newbies

 

 

 

Name: Beggar

 

Primary levels: 3-25

 

Behavior: s go around asking people like you to give them money. They can be awful persistant and they are always annoying. They beg when I they see a high level because they think "wow, he has good stuff, maybe if I ask nice they'll give some of it to me!" Sometimes if they don't get what they want they'll become nasty!

 

Behavior: Politely tell them no and give them ideas on how to make money, if they persist add them to ignore, switch worlds or teleport.

 

Danger Zones: Lumbrige castle cortyard, north Lumbrige, Varrock Square, Varrock East bank, Lumbrige cows

 

 

 

Can you help me plz?!?!?!111!!!!!11111!!1

 

Primary levels: Low level, but even high levels can succomb to the temptation.

 

Behavior: If they need help with a quest......they scream. :P They usually target higher levels but can attack anyone. They usually need help with a fairly easy quest and they just cant figure it out.

 

Solution: Either help them, or tell them politely that you dont have the time. DON"T CALL THEM A NOOB!!!!!!!! this will cause them to become enbittered.

 

Danger Zones: Around major quest locations

 

 

 

Perosnal fanclub

 

Primary levels: Lower levels usually

 

Behavior: When you are high combat you can always expect to be looked up to by newbies. If your a rather famous player, it gets worse. Hordes of newbies could come and swarm you. There annoying, but they look up to you as a role model.

 

Solution: Single fan: TAke it as a compliment, they look up to you as a role model! Be polite and give them tips on how to get better.

 

Mass Attack/Crowd Crush: Don't run!!! Contrary to popular belief this is about the worst thing you can do. Tele a few times and then switch worlds. If your in a confined space Run up a ladder and quickly back down again,then tele

 

Danger Zones: Fally east and square, Catherby fishing spots, Seers willows, yew, and magic trees.

Noobs

 

 

 

Scammers

 

Primary levels: 3-60

 

Behavior: Annoying noobs who will use several means of robbing your account and items, some will be straight out obvious but others will use very tricky methods to get you killed and take your stuff. They do this because they dont want to be bothered training there skills to make money.

 

Solution: Step 1: Identify the scam, Step 2: Inform the player of there wrong doing, 3. If they say it again report them under the apropriate category, Step 4: Add them to your ignore list.

 

Danger Zones: Lumbrige, Any bank (though Varrock west is a favorite.)

 

 

 

Macroers

 

Primary levels: 3 or 4

 

Behavior: Walk, Skill, Bank, Repeat over and over without variation.

 

Solution: If you suspect someone of being an autoer, try talking to them, if they dont respond and just do what they normally do, chances are, there macroing, even if you have the slightest suspicon reporting them cant hut, unless that is your abusing it, reporting people right and left. Also you could read up on some of the great Bot Busting guides that are out on this very forum. :)

 

 

 

Spammer

 

Primary levels: Lower, but all sometimes may do it.

 

Behavior:dfd;afdla;fefeiw;afiew;afeiw;afeiw;afewfhifueifeifueifsfdhjsafdlafeuwfrldsaffdsjfdhsfkdhsfksdfdews :wink:

 

Solution: Ask them to stop, if they dont and there seriously flooding the screen repot them.

 

Danger ZOnes: Anywhere that lots of people are.

 

 

 

Other Rulebreakers

 

Primary levels: All

 

Behavior: They consist of jagex impersonators, people asking for personal details, and selling accounts.

 

Solution: If you see a site selling gold or accounts, dont click on it! Send a qquery to Jagex, this should also be done if someone is asking for seriously person details. Otherwise report, report, report.

[Ash6110]

PKing erks and annoyances

 

 

 

Safers, Prayer Noobs, Def Noobs, etc

 

Primary levels: All

Solution: Leave them alone! Everone has the right to eat, pray, and tele on there own accord, so uh........deal with it :?

 

Danger Zones: The Wilderness

 

 

 

Runecraft PKers

 

Primary levels: 50(DDS Pure usually)-Mid 80s with exceptions

 

Behavior: They will sometimes bind you, and then spec you on your way to the abyss or chaos altar.

 

Solution: if your an inexperienced PKer: Dont bring good items and run like the wind.

 

Experienced PKers: Sacrifice a few spaces for food and armor and wring em' out to dry!

 

Danger Zones: low level Wilderness above edgeville near the Zamorak Mage and Chaos Altar.

 

 

 

Pile Jumpers

 

Primary levels: Usually close to the same as yours

8/10 good guide.. pics would help

[Ash6110]

Jerks

 

 

 

F@(%!!6 Cursers

 

Primary levels: All

 

Behavior: Most of the time when someone does this they are just extremely frustrated with you because you are getting all the kills in an area, this is common in areas with cannoneers. But there are also many different situations where these guys pop up.

 

Solution: Ask them to stop, if the remarks are discriminatory and really rude, report them!

Immature kids

 

Primary levels: all

Solution: Ignore them. or say something witty to make them look like the idiot they are.

 

 

 

OMG lvl 100 no lifer!!!!!111!!!

 

Primary level: 60-90

 

Behavior: Immature teenagers who cal people nerds and say that high level players have no lives (which is actually the case for them most of the time). It can get very old very fast and unfortuneately it usually happens unprovoked and is usually sustained over public chat to try and embarrass the target into submission.

 

Solution: Ignore them or say something witty to make them look bad, nothing else that you usually need to do.

 

 

 

Taunters

 

Primary levels: Any (mainly pkers)

 

Behavior: Takes a liking to taunt a player as they are killing them, also sometimes they challenge people to fights by going "Hey noob, you scared or something?" Taunting is frequently paired wiht PJing.

High and Mighty

 

Primary levels: 40-60 (duel arena stakers), and high levels

 

Behavior: They think that they are better than you and do things to irritate you by usually respond to a question with the word "nub" in the forefront, staker high and mighties are a combination of the other types of jerks, frequent naming names, and scamming peopel out of training spots.

 

 

 

Well thats it for my guide. I hope that you enjoyed it and that you will use this to your advantage ingame.

7/10

 

 

 

A bit stereotypical.

 

Honestly, I find more "high and mighties" in the level 95-110 range

 

 

 

 

 

Here is my scale: (with overlaps)

 

Notes:

 

Chart useful only if the player has been at that level for awhile

 

This doesn't apply to stakers/pkers/pures

 

 

 

Level 3 = Macroer/Skiller

 

Level 4 - 10 = Begger/100% Hopeless little kid

 

Level 5 - 40 = Scammer/90% Hopeless little kid

 

Level 15 - 70 = Begger/Leetspeaker/Immature little kid

 

Level 40 - 80 = Fairly nice player/Slightly mature

 

Level 60 - 100 = Helpful/Friendly player

 

Level 50 - 126 = Braggart/Newb Abuser/Jerk (when at least 5-10 levels above you)

 

Level 90 - 126 = Kind/Mature player willing to help out anyone

[0KINGC0]

6/10 i find this guide pointless apart from the scammers, autoers and spamming. all the others you should have common sense for and a noob fan club swarming!!? that i cant believe, and i have seen pretty high leveled guys in world 1 none have ever been followed...

[Packer15]

10/10 Beautiful guide, full of information, extremely accurate, and very, very well organized. However, I would add to the part about macroers that you should talk to them over private chat. :thumbsup:

[oldvuz_ranga]

Nice guide 7/10

 

i get jerks all the time at black dragons, lv100s that think they are better than me because im lv94 and they think being 6 lvls higher makes them better than me

[Mstrgmr]

9/10

 

 

 

Excellent guide, very helpful to people who don't know what to do in those situations or haven't ever had any happen to them

[Doughnut]

A most unusual guide, and a pretty obvious one. But still nice effort, and it made me smile so you get a Cookie

 

 

 

7/10 as the guide is now. Some helpful hints:

 

 

 

-Fix the small spelling errors here and there, if you don't want to go through all that trouble then download Google toolbar or Firefox. Google has a manual spell checker installed in it, and Firefox automatically underlines misspelled words. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

-Put in some pictures, there not really necessary but everyone loves pictures.

 

 

 

-Don't be afraid to use different fonts to make certain parts stand out.

 

 

 

-Collaborate all of your posts into one post, don't worry it can handle it.

 

 

 

-Maybe add little tricks, like in Lumbridge if you have 10 gold you can run through the Al Kharid gates escaping all evil doers and morons.

 

 

 

Just some little tips I thought you might find useful. :)

so im lvl 100 does that make me legible to fit into all 3 of those categories?

 

 

 

To be honest this is a weird guide, dont wanna say much else. :uhh:

[SaraWannabee]

This isn't the best guide I've seen :shock: :shock: Maybe some pictures? otherwise great!!

[Slayerofduck]

Good guide, most of it seems pretty obvious to me.....But then again it seems to me I see more of these people than most others.

[dtbrehm]

Level 5 - 40 = Scammer/90% Hopeless little kid

so i'm a fairly nice, helpful, jerk scammer? :lol: just kidding

 

 

 

nice guide by the way.

[EnragedKingOfHearts]

Lol kinda funny, i give u 10/10, not for quality, but for making me laugh :thumbsup:

[Ash6110]

Bumpertized

[Maxx91]

A very original guide, and made me laugh quite a few times :D

[pwniez]

6/10 i find this guide pointless apart from the scammers, autoers and spamming. all the others you should have common sense for and a noob fan club swarming!!? that i cant believe, and i have seen pretty high leveled guys in world 1 none have ever been followed...

 

 

 

obviously you have never heard of zezima :wink:

 

 

 

of J-mods.

 

Poor mod Si was swarmed by a couple thousand people, while I just watched :XD:

[tryto]

 

-Maybe add little tricks, like in Lumbridge if you have 10 gold you can run through the Al Kharid gates escaping all evil doers and morons.

 

 

 

 

If your over lvl 35, i expect that you have done Prince Ali rescue, and don't need the 10 gps, you'd have to be over that lvl to have noobs following you, unless your're a skiller wearing elegant or something.

 

 

 

On-Topic:Pretty good guide, 8/10, some pics of macroers maybe, and maybe keep on one post, but humourously written and some good tips in there

[reaperguy]

sweet ima kind and mature player...lol

[Master_Smither]

Safers,prayer noobs,defence noobs,

 

 

 

Your just mad you can't beat them easily...... Also why eat and 30 hp and risk losing ur whip when you can eat at 50 :-k I find that stupid.

 

 

 

But nice guide anyway
