I need help! I'm stuck forever!

[Ninos]

Hi, I'm my name's Ninos and I've come here for a few reasons. I've always been reading posts, but never finally signed up until today. Today I had a problem and because I'm a low level I can't post on the RuneScape forums, so it gave me an excuse to finally register here at Tip.it.

 

Basically, I'm a range pure. My ranged lvl is 72, and my hitpoints lvl is 61. And that's it. Every other skill, including non-combat, is 1. I'm a very strict pure and I want to keep it that way.

The problem is, I was taken by evil bob to a random event. It's on an island. To get off, I have to catch a fish using the fishing skill. However, I'm extremely close to lvl 2 (literally a couple of xp off) and there's no way I'm leveling it. So I'm stuck here forever.

 

All I can think of doing is contacting a Player Moderator, who can then contact A Jagex in-game Admin, who can remove me off the island or something? Does anyone know a Player Moderator? Are there any registered on this board? If not, perhaps could someone that has access to the RuneScape forums quote this post and then re-post it over there for me?

 

I think this random event is something that needs to be looked at and perhaps updated by Jagex since my situation has highlighted a problem.

 

Thanks for your time, and if anyone could help I'd be most grateful.

 

PS. My RuneScape username is "As Bow".

I'm afraid you will have to complete the mini-game.

[skylor12344]

Unless its changed after 24 hours you will teleported off the island and to some random place.

[Bows]

I hate to say it, but you have to complete the random event. Unless of course you do end up getting taken away after 24 hours.

Okay, that's annoying since I planned out getting 73 ranged today but it solves my problem. At least my knowledge on how RuneScape works has been expanded.

 

Thanks to everyone for their replies, and sorry for what now seems to be a nooby question.

I'm fairly certain you don't get any exp for catching the fish on the island?

When you leave it says something like "You feel yourself learn a bit more about Fishing." Which grants you XP.

[noble_aloof]

one of the most hysterical posts i've ever seen. your fishing is still going to be unranked at level two, and at your stats, nobody is going to worship you for being "strictly pure". i can't even contemplate the fact that your actually considering waiting 24 hours.

[aerendil]

YOU do not get fish xp, that was how it used to be, now, you get a box, generally with a lamp option, that you can chose fishing, doing the event shouldn't raise your fihsing level.

Hmmm 2 conflicting posts. IIBowsII seems to be more beleivable as it's the sort of thing no one would be uncertain about or forget.

It doesn't matter to me if it's unranked and no one will ever know, I will know, and it's my account. I'm not looking for worship. I have been polite and you're just a nob.

This actually sounds true. After all events I get a box where I can either choose from a list of items or xp lamp. However the issue is still wether or not the fishing itself will raise my lvl. You seem to be very sure and since someone else has commented the same I'm fairly sure since you're both regular members of the forum.

 

Unless someone can confirm wether I'll get xp or not I'll try it within the next 5 minutes.

Thanks again, I'll post an update on what happens.

[Ninos]

I done it, and I can confirm that neither cooking or fishing xp is gained!

 

At least a semi-nooby question that had a lot of different answers is now confirmed.

 

Thanks again for help.

[Bows]

That's right! I haven't had that random event in some time now, and I forgot that you get the 'Random Event Gift' now. You can go ahead and do the event without worry!

 

Happy 'Scaping! ;)

 

EDIT: Didn't see that you'd already completed it! I'm glad we could help you out. :smile:

[Aiel]

I am not a nob

 

You're in a "Rap Group" called "Educated White Boys". I strongly disagree.

..and made $240 selling t shirts + was invited to the MC battle at vans warped tour that's coming to my city today. that does in-fact make me a doorknob.

stfu knobs cant type forum posts or rap.

 

get out :arrow:

have fun pking without ancients. Epic fail pure tbh.

 

Who says a pures gotta be for pking? I am just trying to train it to lvl 99 while I'm under police bail conditions, not that it's any of your business. Gives me something to do rather than watching TV repeats or playing COD.

 

PS. I haven't played RuneScape in a good 2-3 years, I forgot how fun and addicting it can be lol!

Well, on that note, welcome back! On another note, don't bother listening to people trying to put you down. It's your playing style, play however you want. :thumbup:

[Ninos]

Yeah thanks mate, seems when you're an archer everyone seems to put you down, especially a pure. Thanks again for your help :)

[noble_aloof]

 

 

 

the nob will return.

 

ps- please excuse the spam but my family are door nob experts and i do not take lightly to the family trade being disrespected.

[Bows]

Don't mention it. ;)

Spamming only questions your intelligence. If you have no help to offer, then there is no need for you to be posting in this thread. :thumbup:

[Zaaps1]

Huh. That's funny I could've sworn I did the event the other day and got fishing xp.

 

All for the better I suppose. I hate fishing. Glad you solved your problem :)

All for the greater good lol.

 

On another note has anyone else noticed the problem with training at lesser demons if you're a non-member?

 

Training at lessers is annoying because it's either a case of you're too low a level (and lessers have a high defense) so leveling up takes time, or, when you can kill them fast enough, the exp required per level is considerably higher so it takes just as long leveling as before (if that makes sense).

[Zaaps1]

Lessers are never that great xp, anyway. Flesh Crawlers are better xp, as are Giant Spiders, and if it's loot you're looking for, Minotaurs are good because of all the iron arrows.

[Ninos]

Yeah everyone's told me about flesh crawlers (the ones in the safety place right?) but I've never been there because I didn't get that much information.

 

Are there ranged safespots at flesh crawlers? What about Giant spiders?

 

Sorry to be a noob but I just started again after roughly a 3 year break. Thanks

 

 

EDIT: I read your guide "The Best F2P Combat Guide". Great information and tips, I recommend everyone gives it a read. My question has been answered. Thanks.

[jcrowley1985]

Can you purposely give bob the wrong fish? After enough failures, will be teleported to a random location back in Runescape with your home teleport disabled for like 10 minutes. Not sure if it gives exp for failure, but it's worth a try.

Sorry, but we've already answered his question, as well as helped with his other inquiries, you're a little late. ;)
