in "what lies below", we say, "what if he fails to acquiese to our request?" which is a reference to pirates of the caribbean. if your vocab is too small to know what it means... it means no.

 

 

 

Yeah I noticed that one to!

 

 

 

(guys mithril is not from lord of the rings -.-)

Go upstairs in the guard tower on Neitiznot and you'll see guards from both islands trading insults. One even came directly from Monty Python "Your mother was a hampster and your father smelled of elderberries!" (the guards say winterberries).

 

 

 

speaking of those islands, anyone notice:

 

 

 

Neitiznot= No, it is not.

 

Jaitizso- Ja (ya), 'tis so.

 

 

 

(apologies for the horrible spelling of islands, you get the idea). probably the name reflects on the conflicts between the brothers aka kings of the islands.

actualy in-game (i dont remember exactly i think it was an NPC in relleka who said that) there was a fight between brother never mind long story any way at the fight 1 said no its not and there other said ye 'tis so or something like that i dont remember exactly...anyway thats not an easter egg because they actualy talk about it ingame :XD: :uhh:

[hide= wall of quotes]

 

Just wondering, isn't Mithril from Lord of The Rings? Frodo had Mithril, as light as a feather but as hard as dragon scales. Mithril is an extremely light armor

 

 

 

The name might come from it, but it was no way similar. Mithril in that movie is dwarven(or elven) armor that is indestructible. Everyone knows that Mithril in runescape is all but indestructible.

 

 

 

Mithril was added to the game in early 2001 and was the best armour at the time. It was not intended to be low level armour like it is now. Andrew could not have envisaged that the game would grow in the way that it has or that they would have to add so many types of improved armour to keep players happy.

 

 

 

I am aware of this, in fact it crossed my mind to make it an although. I still don't believe Jagex ever planned Mithril from Lord of the Rings to be like the Mithril on Runescape. Mithril is supposed to be silver...not blue.

 

 

 

Its not really a lotr reference even.

 

 

 

Runite, Adamantite and Mithril are the 3 major fantasy metals. If you look a bit deeper than popular culture fantasy books etc these 3 feature all over the place.Much like allthe incarnations ofr fairies, griffins and elves across the fantasy genre

Actually adamantine is real, it's kind of like corundum.

 

 

 

Yeah but most people don't know that. Where as they know its a common thing in fantasy hence one of the fantasy metals.

 

 

 

Like theres fantasy dwarves.

 

 

 

But theres real medical dwarves (genetic dwarfism)

 

 

 

Alot of people know about adamantite... it is a type of crystal that when exposed to the right temperatures and pressure can be turned into an extremely strong (but brittle) tempered metal, the only stronger (known) metal is titanium - This is different to the medical condition known as dwarfism.. As adamantite exists in runescape as it does in real life. But I didn't think a stereotype of dwarfs (yes its dwarfs not dwarves) in the real world is that they have a love of metal and are amazing smiths.....

 

 

 

Also obsidian exists in the real world, is a type of jet black and shiny rock which can be obtained in a abundance from the continent of Africa. It's just its not really useful in anyway.

 

 

 

actually mithril is real too, it's a stronger type of silver, much much rarer than gold, as are most minerals.

 

[/hide]

 

 

 

rune and black are the only metal that are made up...

 

 

 

just a note... there are a thing called kryptonite to (superman ftw? :XD: :XD: )

well if you knew a bit about superman you'd know there is a real thing in real life called kryptone or something like that and that the 1 who invented super man didnt have quite a good imagination so he just used that name...check out chemistry :XD:

(guys mithril is not from lord of the rings -.-)

 

 

 

"Mithril is a fictional metal from J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth fantasy writings. It is precious and silvery, stronger than steel but much lighter in weight. The author first wrote of it in The Lord of the Rings, and it was retroactively mentioned in the second, revised edition of The Hobbit, where it is also called "silver-steel".

 

 

 

In The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien writes that mithril was found only in Khazad-dÃÆÃâÃâûm (Moria), where it was mined by the Dwarves. However, in Unfinished Tales he writes that it was also found in NÃÆÃâÃâúmenor.

 

 

 

The name mithril comes from two words in Sindarin ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ã

almost all of the NPC's in Brimhaven are in refference to the oldest known epic poem Beowulf.

"fangs for the memories"

 

which is a reference to the fall put boy song

 

"thanks for the memories"

 

 

 

Fall out do not have a song called "thanks for the memories"

 

 

 

They have "Thnks fr th mmrs" though

 

 

 

dude, when singles come out they take out vowels, it happend with one step closer by linkin park, at least im pretty sure that is what happens, anyway put some vowels in it and look and see what you get...

 

 

 

th+a+nks= thanks

 

f+o+r= for

 

th+e = the

 

m+e+m+o+r+ie+s= memories

 

 

 

oh would you look at that

 

 

 

i think that constitutes for a burn

7.Thnks fr th Mmrs

 

 

 

That songs title is spelt in txt speech.Hence it it is NOT called Thanks For The Memories but Thnks fr th Mmrs

.. That's what it technically is called, but that's not what people call it... and do you hear people saying "thnks fr th mmrs" in the song? You would walk around saying "Oh, I loved the song 'thnks fr th mmrs'"

thnks fr the mmrs is still pronounced thanks for the memories

 

 

 

the whole point of txt speak is removing un-neccssary letters

 

 

 

like u, r, gr8

Don't know if this has been mentioned before:- I think in North Eastern Varrock Chapel there is a preson called Jeremy Clerson, obviously to do with Jeremy Clarkson.

 

Again, i dont know if this has been mentioned before.

just thought id point this out in case no one else has... Mostly harmless may be a reference to the hitchiker's guide to the galaxy:D :mrgreen: , or one of those books.. forget which one...

Actually, if you read it as is, it'd be something like.. "Thinks fer the mers." ... Which really sounds nothing like "Thanks for the memories."

For Christ's sake, don't be so pedantic, you know what he means.

"Thanks for the Memory" was Bob Hope's theme song well before any of us were born (even me!)

Greek... not spartan... and thats what he was saying....

 

 

 

odysseus is the greek warrior who came up with the trojan horse and who struggeld for 10 years to come home because he was cursed by poseidon(god of the see's). he is also one of the best known heroes of the greek historie

Thanks for clearing that up. I knew he fought the trojans, but couldn't remember if he was involved with the famous horse.

but...if im not wrong...LotR did not "create" the word mithril

 

 

 

actually.. JRR Tolkien did create the word "mithril" ... along with many many other words, while alot of his madeup words had a basis in common Old English language.. "mithril" was entirely made up, and derived from one of the languages he made up. It is also the first elvish word to be included in the Oxford English Dictionary.

 

 

 

It is fascinating... to read how Tolkein compiled the languages used in his books, and any scholar who is interested in such stuff should look into this book "The Ring of Words:Tolkien and the Oxford English Dictionary" by Peter Gilliver, Jeremy Marshall and Edmund Weiner.

 

a description of the book..and info on the word "mithril" can be found here http://www.us.oup.com/us/catalog/genera ... 0199210763
