I voted yes for free trade and the wildy. I don't regret it. Im frustrated because with this update came a bunch of retired players who now feel the need to post blatantly wrong information in the Help and Advice section of these forums.

 

They bring their 2007 suggestions and when they are corrected about the new methods people have developed in the last three years being better they begin to flame about how there's no way they could be wrong because it was the best way to do things back then.

 

Honestly seems like there is a new one of these people every other day since free trade and the wildy came back.

 

/rant.

Yeah it is rather annoying when people can't take that their info is outdated or when they are shown literally proof they r wrong and still refuse to see it.

From your example it looks like they want to help the community here but they are just as you said, outdated.

 

Sure there are people who can't stand being corrected but I think it just stems from them being used to the older RS not the current one. Just give them time to get used to what RS has become, I'm sure they will come around eventually.

Back in my day, Yews were 350 gp apiece, and finding a D med helm meant you were rich.

 

 

Yeah I'm one of them players, but I don't go around thinking I'm right. It's hard getting back into things, but fun at the same time :)

get under me

Why do I get the feeling that your rant was more or less directed solely at me? Sure, my advice may be 'old', but at least I'm nice about it, unlike certain people who choose to flame and curse whenever someone doesn't post their 'specificly uuuuber methud'. It's called help and advice amigo, not flame and troll.

maybe because your advice is horrible and unhelpful

It clearly says you're from Minnesota :ugeek:

Maybe because from what I've witnessed, your posts are usually full of crap and made up stuff.

Teach me how to 2011prod, teach me teach me how to 2011prod.

Its fair to say foursideking posts VASTLY outdated advice that wasn't even the best ways of doing things back then and that he needs to learn to accept that his advice sucks until he re-learns the games current state and thus doesn't help anyone particularly as it is that bad and outdated.

But its unfair to say it's made up, it was all valid as (usually) alternative methods back a few years ago.

Eh, I just take solace in the fact that quite a lot of my friends who quit have come back to the game. Yes, they're old geezers who don't understand these newfangled 'Korasi Swords', but it's satisfying to teach them.

 

Also, if I see anyone say 'prod' or equivalent in a serious way, I file them under 'idiot' and ignore them.

Nothing teaches quite as well, though, as ending up on the sharpened end of Korasi's sword.

In the event that people decline advice and decide to try whatever method it is that they prefer, experience usually becomes a better teacher.

Fighting giant skeletons in Damis's dungeon is a really good method for training melee. It's also not very crowded.

 

Another good way to train melee is to go to the Bedabin camp and kill bandits in the bar while wearing a Holy Book or Unholy Book.

 

 

 

 

 

If you wanna make some money, chop magic logs or fish sharks. You can also solo the Kalphite Queen, and if you have 91 RC you can double craft nature runes via the Abyss for the best money in the game! If you don't believe my advice about 91 RC being the best money-maker in the game, go check out Tripsis' blog in Blogscape.

you forgot that the majority of tip.it posters have no sarcasm detector. Prepare for flames.

How I got 99 strength tbh.

 

No sarcasm.

 

Great fun in those days. Went from 96-97 without realizing my guthans had broke.

 

That whole idea was a mistake >.> Sure there are a lot better methods out there nowadays. I had this conversation at Soul Wars bank yesterday on why people still alch with the plethora of better options out there. It's simply because it's the traditional thing to do.

If you're a pure, Alching is the best way for training besides superheating if you don't want to gain HP.

what kind of pure doesn't want hp xp? anyway, stunning, bolt enchanting, MTA enchanting, and superheat as you said are all better than alching

i think certain people should be banned from posting in gen discussion

especially if they actively troll or are entirely stupid yet insist they are right

You referring to me?

I hate people that spam the top 30 threads in help and advice just for post count.

Either they just copy what people said before or post blatantly stupid advice.

I now understand why there is a flood limit.

Every pure wants no Hp xp.. Blitz dds rushers, Void rushers, and F2p Pures made in Members with low hp, to name a few.
