Codguy Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I support you all the way! I think you have a chance, but you gotta stop takin' the runes in my opinion, 'cause they aren't helpin' that much. But if you get into the bigger stuff then you can do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kido14 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 hmm... I might want to get in on this lol. The "red paper clip" guy lived only a couple minutes from where I lived. So it's cool to see the idea move on to Runescape. PS- Kido, being negative can also be translated into being a jerk. Just thought I'd use a simpler term because apparently "being negative" is too difficult. Woah, did you know him? That's awesome =D. PS- Jimmy, I know what being negative is, I just don't know what being "negitive" is, if you looked more closely at what I wrote.

Cdub Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I wanted to try this, but I wimped out. You're a braver man than I to even attempt this. :oops: Good luck to ya', I hope to see more updates! i love noobs like you :3> +1. I'm assuming this isn't your only account, considering you know what a Red Phat is in the first place, so aren't you smart enough to do something else? Even chopping normal logs and sellin them 10ea is faster than this. I don't think I've seen you make ONE positive post. Ever. Seriously, why even post that? You spam, and then flame to make it look like a legible post? It's funny that you are insulting his intelligence, whereas kicking your post off with "+1" does not bode well for yours. I was going to make a rant about people like you, but the majority of the community already knows exactly what type of idiots exist within it.

Fencal Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Great idea, easter egg...cheaper isnt that? Oh and this isnt my main. Why the hell are you doing this? Beacuse i like to have fun, and this is a big thing to achive, by merchenting form a single egg, to a now-easter-egg, i find it fun, watching the puny trade im make, like 40 airs for 800 gp (my latest trade, im up loading it now. I understand (or i think) why people are being negetive, probley because they think its a waste of time/impossible or something.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyre negative because youre seemingly ripping off someone elses idea. (Except in a bit of a cheaper way). You may as well say "merchanting for a easter egg", because thats really all youre doing. Youll also end up giving up, but thats a whole nother issue. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong in those 2 first lines, i saw the egg challange before the red paper clip, i started because of that topic, the guy started, telling us about the egg challange, i just did the same, not inspired from red paper clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas42 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Everybody steals ideas from somewhere else, even if it's only small parts of it. I reckon that red paper clip guy can't take full credit for what he did as im sure he got inspiration from seeing something else. I had a look on that guys site and on one of the pages it said 'Copy Cats Are Cool Cats' As for flaming him for doing this, so what, RS is a game and its a fun challenge. Lighten up and just wish him good luck. 99 Range - 88 Defence - 91 Hitpoints99 Combat - 1650+ Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomdavies90 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Read this.... http://living.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=1013152006 ok, done that? right well now you will see a few things.... 1)it took him a year to get to the house, if this takes you a year (and it will probably take a long time probably not a year) then eggs may be into the 20mils by then and you will continue doing this and get nowhere... 2)he did it in 14 trades you have done 47 to get about 40k 3)the main reason he got the items is because irch generous people gave them too him, lemme tell you there are lots of rich, but not many generous people in this game 4)the media was one of the main reasons he got all his trades with them spreading messages of his idea 5)it was an original idea people on the game just see you doing this and think wow, this isn't old news and dont trade you 6)one way you may be thinking you might get money if someone quit and felt generous on the forums....i highly doubt it most likely they would go, hmm i might give to one of them and then think, oh wait there are about 7 people doing it im not going to give to 1 it would be unfair 7)when u finally get onto good items and a lvl 90 sees a lvl 3 trading them when they're selling d legs and you want to swap they are gonne think 1 thing....scammer! so at the end of the day you're wasting your own time......even if you do eventually get an easter then what....you will have nothing else on your lvl 3 account what will you do theres only 1 thing i can think of and thats drop trading which is against the rules........ and another thing if you think that posting this on rate this instead of blogscape is going to increase advertisement then you're wrong...nobody will trade you much for the pure fact, that, it's old news. if someone well known and liked on the forums had come along before or just after the man started his paperclip then he would've got his egg really quickly because it would be really excting to see how generous people can get, but all youre showing is that grovelling with people can get you hardly anywhere and to be honest none of your trades are particularly good i mean youre making like 200gp a go keep that up and you hould have an egg in oh i dunno.............8 million years.
