I use low detail because it runs much faster than high detail on my computer. I honestly don't care if I see more detail in the game - I just care about being able to play without getting logged off.

in 2001 I got 4 fps on my bad computer. with the "f1" function I could max out at 7-8 fps, f1 function being the low detail version at the time.

 

 

 

after that I always used f1 function and low detail function :P my computer can run it in high detail tho but no ty!! :P

I use low detail because it doesn't show the roofs of the bank and other buildings. Without the roof on you can select the use-quickly option of the bank booth before you enter the building, which saves clicks during repeated trips.

This is exactly why I play in low detail as well. As far as I am concerned low detail is better than high detail.

I always play in high detail. I don't really care about the graphics, but I have gotten so used to it, that I find it empty when I put it on low detail :P

stupid music i dont like

 

 

 

and stupid details i dont watch anyway :( :( i play for the game not the graphix

I prefer low detail for two reasons -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While theiving, I cannot see around buildings as well when the rooftops are visible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I get distracted by all the debris on the ground when I am in high detail.

I don't really know

 

 

 

probably habit

Computers will never be above humans because we made them.

That's what monkeys used to say about us.

My comp is old and laggy, it just runs more smoothly for me.

I play low detail because I can't name one GOOD reason to play high detail.

 

 

 

I have a mac so the music and sound effects don't play, so I realy couldn't care less.

Once an opinion is formed the truth is irelivant.

Less lag on low detail. That's pretty much why. And me being a pker, no need to have that high detail + the lag :notalk: .

Training my pure!

I play in high detail always, unless lag or something is making me nervous enough (If I'm doing something dangerous) to switch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Almost always I'm in high detail.

The harsh life of an fletching magician

I always went under low detail until I got members. But now that I paid $60 for a year's worth of membership (using my own money), I don't want to miss a single detail. I want to squeeze out every last penny out of my money's worth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On an unrelated note, it is my firm belief that $50 of those $60 were spent on the privilege of being able to make fun of F2P players. (You have to go all the way to Karamja to fish your lobbies - ahahahahaha!!!!!!!111one~). *Ahem*, sorry, I'll try to refrain.
