Not a fact but something i noticed.

 

 

 

Phats are light-weigh and paper-thin, easy to take off someone's head.

 

 

 

Ca Ching!! :twisted:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And also this, which I'm sure is known by many, if not all:

 

 

 

Karajama Rum+ Banana=Big surprise!!!!! :-#

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

test it out & see if you live to tell

 

 

 

i'm sorry this might sound noobish, but what DOES happen when you stuff the banana in the neck of the bottle, nothing elsee happens

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you stuff the banana in the bottle

[12pure34]

And ofcourse when logging out.. Teleblock disapears.

[Itz_Itzal]

Whenever you log into Runescape you appear to be facing south on other player's screens but you on your screen you are facing the direction you last logged out on. Also whenever you see a player log in they should be facing south. \

[Pikemaster25]

When you catch monkfish in Swan Song they are called Fresh Monkfish :P

[Abyssalwhip]

There is nothing new you can catch in hunter with an even hunter level ( multi trap advancments dont count)

Here's a quote from the Tip.It Times!

 

 

 

Lots of useless (I mean useless!) facts!

 

 

 

Such facts as the quest relating to the actual Cold War, anagrams, and junk!

 

 

 

This week's Tip.It Times has been released. Feel free to discuss the article or post any comments. If you have any criticism, please make sure it's constructive! :D

Working my way through Jagex's latest quest, Cold War, the other evening, I found myself giggling like a fool at the various jokes and social commentary embedded in it. The quest itself was fairly straightforward; what made it so much...

no mater wut hour it is, u wont ever c the sun in runescape, not even during sunset... i really doubt there is a sun in runescape...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If u click a prayer u cant use it will light up 4 2 seconds n then it will tell u u need higher lvl.

 

 

 

When u eat sumthing seems like u r eating ur hand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fly fishin rods n normal fishin rods both look the same while fishing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when u r harpoon fishin, it says u get sumthin(tuna,swordie, etc.) but ur harpoon never has a fish on it. Same with lobby cage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when u turn the run mode on, if u move 1 or 2 squares u dont run.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

idk if its bcuz i play in low detail, but players dont seem to have mouth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when u r in varrock's west bank's basement u cant get sum of the stuff even if using telekinetic grab.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a lvl 100 player eats more than 1k fish, pies, pizzas or w.e he/she eats but where does all that food goes 2?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even if theres enough space, u cant walk between sum trees.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After talking with a npc they seem 2 follow u 4 a moment

 

 

 

Same with the moon.

 

 

 

Yes, but you usually aren't stupid enough to click it on purpose right? :roll:

 

 

 

When you harpoon fish or catch lobsters, you 'shake' the item a little?

 

 

 

When you talk to an NPC, then stop and walk away, they turn and follow you with their eyes unless someone else talks to them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My own useless fact:

 

 

 

In Rimmington, the general store shopkeeper and assistant are almost always standing next to each other facing south.

 

 

 

Is this because that is their default position and noone ever talks to them or pushes them around because people are standing in the way?

[mememe513]

If you trade someone when you're woodcutting, you appear to swing the ax at that player's head :P

 

 

 

And when you're fishing with a fishing rod, and trade someone, you stick the pole right through their stomach :lol:

 

 

 

Also, try eating an onion, you get a message in the text box that's funny.

[bmboy]

Just thought I'd clear up the whole banana rum thing, it's used in the tai bwo wannai trio quest. The guy asks for a bottle of karamja rum, but if you make it by wedging the banana in the bottle, he tells you it's "useless" and makes you re-do it by slicing the banana and putting the slices in the bottle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just figured since this was coming up again, and the first time I said this was lost around a dozen pages back, I'd re-post it.

The wise old man's actual name is Bob the Jagex Cat!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actually it's Dionysus.

 

 

 

Dionysus?

 

 

 

Isn't that the Greek god of wine?

 

 

 

Yes it is...

 

 

 

Also, he lives near the WINE MERCHANT, who is in Draynor Square

Dionysus is also whom the Greeks' built the theaters as a temple for him. I wonder if runescape will ever have a theater (besides the mime theater that is) because of this little fact.............. :-k :pray:

The reason RS doesn't have DVDs, TVs, computers etc. in it is because we adventurers are too busy to be wasting our times on that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh and before you reply to this I wanna have you know RuneScape is a fantasy game, NOT a Old Age, it has very little to do with the events that happend before the year 1,500. Think about it, there are two scientist I'm aware of in the game, frankenstein, and the scientist that changed Enerest into chicken.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Back on topic:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No matter what your thieving level is you can't steal from a bank. This is probably because there are no secret aggents in RS like the FBI.

JaGEX loves references.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The wine salesman in Draynor, Fortunato, comes entirely from Edgar Allan Poe's short-story The Cask of Amontillado. In the story, Fortunato is a wine enthusiast whose former friend lures him into a crypt by promising to let him sample some Amontillado, an especially fine and rare wine. Fortunato is tricked and left in the crypt to die of his allergy to nitre (mold).

Actually, his name is Dionysius, which means he 'belongs to Dionysus'. Perhaps he is a decendant?
