mcneilp Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 the only reason pants became popular is because of horses, not many horses in scotland that is why the kilt is popular there That made me chuckle. :D Yeah, i wore a D skirt. Or a battle kilt if anyone asked.

sambudwiser Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Meh, just change your character to a girl. I'd pay 3k to get rid of said noobs any day. woooooooooooooohhhhh....hold on there we were arguing about kilts not "o i got a skirt to save money...and since im showing a little feminine side ill get a sex change" thts just wrong -.- i personally bought dragon skirt in the begin but wen i had some spare cash i decided to get dragon legs. i have also noticed in the past several month since becoming a mem the skirt prices have gone up a lot. at 1st they were only 60k wen i 1st purchased them now they r almost at 170k. so there is a higher demand for plateskirt now or mayb rs economy is falling :?

3hitm4g3u Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 If it's any consolation I insult people wearing dragon skirts when they also have granite platebody dragon med granite shield and dragon longsword because they look like a typical noob. I don't bring their masculinity (or lack off) into the equation :thumbup: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troacctid Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Since when did dressing like a tran become cool in RS? :? If you're so sure of your masculinity, wear a skirt to school. Non sequitur. It doesn't cost more money to wear a skirt in real life, and you don't get the same defence bonuses from a skirt in real life either. Also, plateskirts are worn as armour, not casual clothing. If I came to school wearing a full suit of armor, I'd get a pretty different reaction than if I came dressed in a skirt and a blouse. "Dressing like a tran" became cool in RS when Barrows gear came out and people started wearing Verac's and Guthan's, and when the God Wars Dungeon came out and people started wearing Bandos and Armadyl. All of those armour sets have skirts in them and nobody thinks twice about it. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I wear tassets and got called a skirt noob :D you call those tassets? they look like rags held on by a leather belt. :lol: i wear my armor as i would if i realy was in the game, legs. even in real life i wear long pants so i always were platelegs, despite skirts being cheaper and lighter with same stats. :lol: Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheefoo Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hey, people dress like santa even in July. It doesn't matter if you look silly, as long as you're fine with it. You've just got to ignore the dopes online. Heck, Verac's super manly, and he wears a skirt.

Sinkhan Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Wearing a skirt making me look poor? Can't I just be poor with my 10K in the bank :roll: (I almost always immediately spend my money on skills) Veracs is my #1 choice once I have the desire to save the money though. Guthans is a close second. Skirts FTW! Something to fill my sig with until I find a replacement.Also check out my blug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snipers_end Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 There is something very ironic in buying a Dragon skirt. You argue that money and stats is worth more than appearance in a video game but... Why buy Dragon then? Barrow far outdoes the stats, at the same cost. And please don't argue about repairs, as it only costs ~5k per hour in normal combat, PLUS you save food, which will sometimes add up far more than 5k. If you don't care, go for a Barrows skirt. I wear veracs skirt lol... pwnt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't "dress like a tran", you either are or you aren't. And I've seen plenty of people in my old Highschool wear kilts, nobody says anything bad about it.

The dragon skirt was designed for and only really looks good on female players. (It wasn't even released until some female players requested them some time after metal dragons entered the game) Sure, you can say it's personal preference, but the vast majority of people must agree with me, because nobody thinks twice about a guthan's skirt but a dragon one racks up the comments, even though they're the same price.

The dragon skirt was not designed to be unisex, it was designed for female characters. It's a girly, feminine piece of armor, and calling it a "battle kilt" or whatever is just deluding yourself. If people are so worried about the money for a pair of dragon legs, just get a pair of guthan's legs for the price of a d skirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had been designed to be worn exclusively on girls, then male characters wearing it would have a different design, a la Stylish Hat. Jagex has never said dragon plateskirts were designed to be worn exclusively by female characters. I'm calling you out on this one--cite your source.

Huta Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Who needs a source? It was designed for female players at their request. Hell, iirc the news post where Jagex announced the d skirt's release said something like "some of our female players have brought to our attention that there is no skirt version of the dragon leg armor released recently with the expansion to the brimhaven dungeon, so we've designed one." Plus you'd have to be blind to not see that the skirt's girly in design. It should be self evident who it was designed for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't call +3 prayer "by far." I'd say just by a regular amount. Dharok's is pretty much equivalent any time you're not praying.
