game_guy02 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 Heres how I see it, base selling price at Karamja general is 15 gp. If the fishers sold for say, 5 each, runners could sell to the general and STILL make 10 gp per lobby. Twent six multiplied by ten is 260 gp per run profit, and the fishers no longer need to drop/sell. And it wouldnt take THAT long to get the lobbies, as if there are enough fishermen and women, at least a couple would be ready to trade at any given time. But with enough support, lets say maybe 15 people ready at any time. And its beneficial for both. Runners get profit, fishers get SOME profit, and faster exp. How can you lose?

Darkan420 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 well...if they did have a fishing world, wouldn't it also be sensible to have a pure combat world as well...kinda like the wilderness except 1/2 of it is wilderness and 1/2 of it is gdz/dark wizards/rangers. that would probably go a little better than ur fishing world...no offense to any1 who likes to fish...because i kinda like to fish as well :thumbsup: Are you talking about making a completely different runescape world? Cause that's kind of not what this topic is about, lol. We're talking about having an 'official' world to go to if you want to get lobs for cheap and don't mind running back and forth to and from the bank.

bigdrizzle13 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 A guy on another fourm suggested that we start a clan for people that would fish like this. . . . anyone have any other ideas of how this could gain popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast647 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Down point, you wont get a full inventory of lobs in the time the runners return. thats why you get multiple fishers :thumbsup: Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yurpsie Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I don't mind being a fisher. I am willing to give lobbies out for free. Has it started yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TaDaraCampbell Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I believe it would be in best interest to "create" an official fishing world in general. -Karamja would be home to people in interest of lobs/tunas/swordfish. -Barbarian Village would be home to trout/salmon. In this way you would have two areas with different fish you can recieve all on one world. Though, like in world 16 air running, I believe the fishers would have to wear certain coloured clothing to show if they give raw or cooked fish (blue for raw, black for cooked as example). It seems many people could benifit from this. I also believe the fishers should give the fish free, as to bring more people to participate.

But it would be rather hard to see cos karamja is so packed. =[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aoe325 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Fichers could wear something like monk robes, very easy to spot in F2P Quest cape obtained at combat level 83, march 07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkan420 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I whole-heartedly agree with the above statement. Mainly because I wear monk robes to skill anyway, lol. People could just say: "Taking cooked lobs, (price here)" or "taking raw lobs, (price here)" That way both traders are getting what they want because (if this gets popular enough) the runner will get a trade no matter what, and the fishers have a chance to get more money from people that pay more.

bigdrizzle13 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 these are all very good ideas. . .but how can we gain support and should we just make world 126 the world. I say. . . if you are going to fish lobgs DO IT ON WORLD 126 and start telling people about this idea!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeo Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Why do we have to always make things easier than they are .. :| Would you rather make them harder? I wouldn't mind if it was :roll: Rs2 virtually cut exp training time in half already, so upping the difficulty wouldn't bother me a bit. Haha, its called Team Work. Or working together. You dont have to be a part of one, its just there if you need it. Training my pure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdrizzle13 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 So. . . should we make a clan? or something along those lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchainmail Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I think someone needs to test run this and figure out how much can be made per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkan420 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 world 126 is a p2p world and it'd be more effective to do this in a f2p world....not to mention I'm stuck in f2p for the time being. I say we post a topic announcing the official test run date and like 15 or so of us get together and try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdrizzle13 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 i didnt know that 126 was p2p my bad. This was intended for f2p only. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obilisk1110 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 it's a good idea. then you won't have to pay to go to and from karamja... PM me to join 30-40 Pking clan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xvillexvalox Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Why not world 126? If everyone just HYT'd, im sure we could muster a large enough gathering. Pure profit for everyone, albeit a bit compromised, and mad exp. good idea.. but there is no world 126 :wink: Yeah there is. :-w And it IS f2p. when they put world 126 in at first, it was members and then it changed. I love this idea, but what would the price be, 100,50,25,10,5,150 per lob? I'd say for raw 50-150 would be fair, seeing as you can sell for over 200ea easy.

I'd say for raw 50-150 would be fair, seeing as you can sell for over 200ea easy. I feel it would be best for them to be free, since they're only recieving, at the most: 27 lobs. So if they were to take these to the bank it would be very slow already, and to put a price on them as well wouldn't seem fair. If they are to sell them to the General Store, after so many lobsters being sold to the Gen. Store, the prices would keep dropping 'til the "runner" was hardly gaining any profit. Those are some down points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new way would divide the work into banking and fishing. Fishers happy to get paid to fish. Runners happy to only have to follow a route to earn money.

bigdrizzle13 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 i think once we got it started and more and more people start doing, prices would fix themselves. . . we would see what the majority of people want to buy/sell for. Details should be discussed once we get a strong start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Post on official forums and grab a bunch of friends to get it started :D Yeah that's what I was going to say. Forums are the best option though because its a f2p idea and I'd assume you're not a member than you'd have to post on the tip.it forums. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
