lord_ownage Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Well I have always wondered why people call themselves pures if in fact they really aren't? Pure 1. free of flaws or imperfections; unsullied 2. free of foreign material or pollutants 3. free of immoral behavior or qualities; clean So in effect wouldn't a pure have a total level of 2277? So a "pure" of 70 atk and 99 str be an impure Impure 1. Not pure; not clean; dirty; foul; filthy; containing something which is unclean or unwholesome; mixed or impregnated extraneous substances; adulterated; as, impure water or air; impure drugs, food, etc. The impure gemstone was not good enough to be made into a necklace, so it was thrown out. 2. Defiled by sin or guilt; unholy; unhallowed; -- said of persons or things. 3. Unchaste; lewd; unclean; obscene; as, impure language or ideas. discuss or give your opinions.. : Could use a sig or avatar, PM me if intersted in making one.

Soulthresher Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 As far as Runescape goes, it is someone who focuses in some sort of skill while lacking in another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcyte Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 pure as in pure in certain skills in particular. Pure also, from another dictionary source means "unmixed with any other matter" Meaning, they're unmixed with defence or such. It makes sense, maybe not with THAT definition in particular, but it makes sense all the same. Click for mah Blog!- I'm not sure why you would though because i never update it Achieved 99 Thieving 3/10/07-992nd to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ss_J9_Goten Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I remember when a pure was someone who didn't raise range, magic or prayer. I never understood how the definition of a pure changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee_Turrell Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Pure was derived from rsc where magic gave you combat levels individually from other stats in cohesion with prayer. All a pure was, was a character void of the imperfections that were mage and prayer, allowing your combat stats to be as high as possible at a low as possible combat.

Dragon_lord Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Pures are no longer "pures" if you ask me. And they seem to find you to be any type of noob, from "deff noob" to "pray noob" to "fighting back noob". These features have all been added in the game for players to use to their advantage, and if they don't like it when others use these features (as Prayer) simply because they aren't using them, meaning it's harder for them to take your items, well tough! They're just going to run/tele anyway. ~Balance is Power~ 1,000th post! Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator? No Tip.Iters were harmed in the making of this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
