DarkX99 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I almost always pick up GP drops. I believe that it'll all add up soon enough. I also have some sort of OCD thing about it. I feel like I'm wasting money; if I have space for it, I'm taking it! :lol: 99 WC - 12/20/08! =D99 Defence - 6/19/09! 44,012 to reach it! Aiming for 2000 Total Lvl!

WoodenFruit Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I pick up everything that's worth 1gp and up, pennies make the pounds! I was once laughed at for picking up a mithril sq shield in Cammy bank by a smug level 130+, meh i'm about 500gp richer than I was a second ago :P Infact I have a tab in my bank of things I need to sell. ______________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12slayer12 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Yes. I pick up ALL the coin drops I get even if it is 1gp. They add up (as someone mentioned earlier) to millions of gp. I have now got nearly 4m in my bank, most from the coin drops off monsters in my slayer tasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knitewulf Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I always pick up the coin drops. They do add up after a while. Whenever I see people not picking up coin drops. (I.E. at greater demons were the coin drops are upwards of 200gp) I always just pick those up too. It does add up in the end. 61,358th to 99 range on May 23rd, 2010.100,927th to 99 def on February 13th, 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeroh Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I usually do, but if I'm in SOS, the gp drops are usually pretty small so I don't pick them up. Retired from runescape. I will be on every now and then though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumpy54321 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Normally I don't pick up coins at all, along with most other annoying drops... Seems like a waste of 3 seconds or so :lol: I'd rather use those seconds to attack the next monster I am killing The only time i pick up coins is when I'm near the end of a task and its a 3k coin drop, but I'll still drop it for a better item any day :thumbup: 99s - Attack, Defence, Strength, Hitpoints, Prayer, Magic, Cooking,Slayer,SummoningProud Fire Cape Owner!5500th to summon the amazing Unicorn!

The Observer Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I pick up coins only if it's worth a decent amount; like 100+ gp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggerum Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 No, not really. After i passed around 1 mill cash for the first time i stopped picking up money drops. idk know why tbh -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forestfrolic Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Always. From one gp to a hundred and more. A coin is a coin. It all adds up. No, I'm not poor. To me it's just common sense to collect free money. Nemo vir est qui mundum non reddat meliorem.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Championfurydelta123 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I have a golden rule for that : 500 or above pick up, 499 or less leave on the ground :) By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest. - Confucius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I always pick up the coins that monsters drop. They're always right at the top of my inventory with charms.

ilovecardj Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 No because basically the 2-3 seconds id probly waste picking up coins after each kill (to lazy to grab them between attacks) over the span of say an average of 150 monsters per slayer task adds up to say 3 minutes to even 5 minutes if I grabbed everyone on a 200 monster task. when i slayed i valued my time around like 600-700k an hour. So per minute i valued it at 10k a minute or so. unless im making 30-50k per task picking up these coins, id much prefer killing my next monster sooner for faster exp. Maybe if i finish the task 3-5 minutes sooner, i could spend that time killing extra monsters and get a drop worth more then say 10-20k average coin pick/task. like any decent rune item or something. Time is money. Though I did pick up the 3000 coin piles as they are easily distinguishable from the rest.

llVIU Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 only if it's 200-300+ gp, but most of the time when that's the case,I need room for better items, worth 2k-3k+ gp so I don't really have room to pick them up, or it's not worth it...

Sim Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I pick up all coin drops, except for ones under 10gp. These coins really do add up, and i can get over 10k in coins from a trip at the cockroaches (f2p) without alchs. Although picking up the coins may seem pointless, it will be worth it in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphenox Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I pick up all coin drops, no matter how small, because I'm poor : Even the really small ones do add up to something bigger over time, and they only take up one inventory space, so a few more won't hurt. :thumbsup: WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU READING MY SIGNATURE?!

Troacctid Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 The coin pile takes up an inventory space. And oftentimes that space could have been filled by a gem or herb that would otherwise have been dropped. And oftentimes the gem or herb is worth more. That's my thinking on the matter, anyway.

jimmy_jim Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 I often pick them up. It really depends where I'm training though. (I'm F2P) If I'm training at Lesser Demons/Moss Giants/Cockroach Soldiers I'll pick up coins. If I'm training at Flesh Crawlers, then i won't pick them up.

Jaffy1 Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Yes, almost always, as creatures I kill also drop larger amounts of cash in one go, so I always have a spot for coins. When it's little amounts, under 100 I tend to leave them, but I often just pick up every pile of coins I see. I never bother to pick up 1-5 coin drops or anything like that, unless there's another drop on the same spot.

01sirt Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Yes of course. In the end it doesn't slow you down that much so why not? Unless you are power training then you should always take coins. :thumbsup: Rune Pureeeeeeeeeeeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
