During mass leather crafting I actually used up a couple needles, so went and bought about 100 from store, then didnt use any up since. So idk what Jagex is doing, maybe its a sorta anti macro thing. Macroer thinks needles dont break and boom they're needleless.

Well if people ae saying needles are stackable because they are tiny?

 

Why are cannonballs stackable? Their huge.

 

 

 

Owned.

New ranged weapon anyone? :anxious:

 

 

 

Can't you see it now?

 

 

 

"pmg 1m g01ng t0 0wn j000! *throws needles*"

 

"Oh, oh that tickles! Stop it! *dies laughing*"

 

 

 

NEEDLE-LAUNCHER FTW

 

 

 

:lol:

I think they used to break.. but probably not.. honestly though.. The best way to think it is: It's always been that way, probably will always be that way... Unless your backpack is equipped with an unseen pin cushion?

needles are the next generation currency :

I sent in a query about this. They basically said they weren't originaly going to make them stackable. But decided it would be nicer to peoples inventory space to do so, as they can be lost easily.

 

 

 

Weird, I know. :?

The little questions in life that cannot be answered... or at least I think...

 

 

 

 

 

Why do herbs appear under bones rather on top?

 

Why do you spawn in lumbridge when you die?

 

 

 

So many questions...

God pages can be stacked also. Why would someone need more then one of each page :-s ?

 

Notes are paper and pages are paper too, so they should be too right?

Hey, I know this is a completely random question to be asking, but I was wondering if you could answer one of the many questions I have about this fabulous game.

 

 

 

What I was wondering is this; Why are needles stackable? They don't break, so there's no point in having more then one of them. And it's not about the size of a needle, because then items like shrims would be stackable.

Greetings Dusty668,

 

 

 

Thank you very much for taking the time to get in touch with us, we always enjoy hearing from our players!

 

 

 

You might be right in saying that needles don't break young warrior.

 

 

 

However if you are as bad at sewing like me then you tend to need a whole pack of needles, because mine tend to break upon contact with the fabric. Most of us mods prefer to buy little sewing kits that contain lots of shiny needles, we would never be happy with just once single needle.

 

 

 

The shrimps however come stacked up already. You could try stacking the stacks of shrimps into one giant stack but moving a giant column of shrimps would be very hard and totally insane.

 

 

 

It might be fun to see a giant tower shrimps though but it would be really hard to cook because the bottom shrimps would be burnt while the top part would still be raw. We Jagex mods, are very picky about the way our shrimps are cooked and I prefer mine medium with chocolate cake on the side to mix things up.

 

 

 

I hope this reply cleared things up for you and please don't hesitate to contact us if you have more random questions to do with the game. We will be more than happy to answer them for you. :-)

 

 

 

Kind regards.

 

Mod Ken

I feel special, they actually responded \

Needles are stackable so that you can scam people.

 

:lol: :lol: :lol: , wasn't that in RSC only?

 

 

 

Yeah. I fell for that scam. Goodbye green party hat :(

 

 

 

I was so angry. :evil:

 

 

 

I figured it out a minute later that it was 1 mil, not 10 mil and by that stage he had logged

 

 

 

If only... my runescaping wud be alot different

 

 

 

The purpose of stackable needles... to make me unhappy

Needles are stackable so that you can scam people.

 

 

 

yep thats how i lost my red and blue in rsc :P

maybe needles are stackable to get some silly person to make a topic about why needles are stackable?

why shouldnt they be stackable?? not the biggest things

 

 

 

and i bet some person has a massive collection of them

 

 

 

so what cannon balls are huge yet stackable

yeah it is nonsense.Another point could be made of why is swamp tar stackable...hmm?

 

swamp tAR is stackable so u can just use with pot of flour to make swamp paste for fishing trawler

how did the old rsC needle scam go ?? i dont understand

lets all have a compotition to see who can collect the most needles

To people using the other needle thread use this one :)

Needles being stackable make no sence to me. You can't break them. I'm sure someone has like 1 mil needles...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and don't double post use the edit button.

In case you need to craft... ALOT... :-s

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know, maybe JaGex just wants to make us wonder...

One of the world's most unsolved mysteries... Some member should ask that on the official RuneScape forums to ask that.

i remembered the good ole days in RSC when needles were not so well known to newbies. So there i was telling a newb that a needle could be used to poke cows and kill them. so i gave him the needle, in return, he gave me a bronze sword. I was so happy and laughing away coz i got my bronze sword back which i lost when i died. I was lvl 13 that time.

Just think, if it was the other way around would people talk about "Why do needles take up a whole inventory space?".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Surely it'd be better to allow people to only carry one at a time? Allow people to have multiple needles in banks as place holders, but only allow one to be in an inventory at anytime could work. :)

Why are needles stackable...?

 

 

 

Why not?

 

 

 

Why do you all waste your time wondering why are needles stackable?

 

 

 

Why is there a ladder to the second floor in falador's west bank if theres no way to get there? Why do you always face south when you loggin? Why cant the door at port sarim's jewellery shop stay open? Why Im asking these questions??? :shock: :shock: :shock: -.- :ohnoes: :ohnoes:

They are stackable because the ability to stack them results in people thinking about it and creatings topics like these.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Think about that. :P

Because nothing Jagex does makes much since, they go off instinct and which side the coin lands on :lol:
