Wkw Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 .it is for an Italian webhost. Maybe tip - it is quite catchy? Runescape player since 2005 Ego Sum Deus Quo Malum Caligo et Barathum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromagus Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 The Italian host is simply because the site owner (Silverion) is Italian. Tip.It is not exclusively a Runescape fansite. In the early days, as early as 2001, Tip.It also had subsections for Asheron's Call and Dark Age of Camelot. For a long time Runescape was the only game the site supported, but now we also have a section for Lord of the Rings Online. Rune Tips just has a better ring to it than Runescape Tips :P My Tip.It Times Articles (10 and counting) || The Varrock Library Author Index projectDo you dare to dream? - Part 19 added. || The Hospital (WIP) - New story!Necromagus looks like a viking ... with glasses.

n_odie Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 If you yell in blue, then what do you do on red? Chuck Norris dies. I have always found the sites name to be interesting.

Wkw Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I think it is ironic that since the owner lives in Italy, and the domain ends in .it.. that it sounds like tip.it..

pkinyou Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Ive always wondered why it was .it , that's crazy [garden tool] wouldve never thought it was italian lol I remember back in the day when you went to tip.it and you had to click on runescape or diablo i think, or sumthing else lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I'm intrigued by this "Lord of the rings online" section you say we have. Before i recall there was an index page with asheron thingy or runescape to click on but these days tip.it directs you straight to runescape, so I wonder how this other section is found? But yeah the site is called rune tips officialy. But tip.it is the address as it hosted on a Italian server and tip.it has a better ring to it and encompasses all aspects of the site, menaing all sections old and new they produce. I mean with any luck we'll be seeing a mechscape section emerging in a few months Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Never knew about the Italian part. :o I thought it was just a custom URL that could be said to make people look cool. "Where can I mine Rune Essence?" "Tip it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wot Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I remeber when I had only played runescape for a few days, a friend told me about tip.it. I didnt believe it for a secound, and guessed that the domain name of tip.it would of been taken long ago due to how awsome it sounds. I felt like a right [cabbage] when I typed out the url to find this site. 2,274th person to 99 mining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
