Personly i think tip.it did a great job on desiding the default forum skin it is mabey not the "coolest", or the most eye catching, but when you start reading pages of posts it definetly helps. Your eyes dont keep trailing of to the skin behind the writing, and it also prvents your eyes from aching and look like well you know ( :shock: ).

Red Toad This is just one i tried, not sure if i did it right, plz tell if it is right, if so il do more.

before the update it was world 78, havent tried sence the update tho.

And WHY would you not want combat exp? This is considering this is NOT a pure, as 90% of pures drop trade. But yeah,cow hides are way faster, heck, you'd get more cash killing men and goblins. Sorry, 2/10 Not at all useful lev 3 skillers dont want combat exp

The only reason i did that, is because my post were long, and if a person dosent want to read it all they can read the, main points which i put in large colorful font. And please back up your post with evidence, i have done so. I am 100% positive that if you conducted a study it would prove that people are easier to convince with large colorfull fonts than average size dull fonts. ----- My evidense to back this up is really quite simple. How many TV advertisments do you see in small fonts in balck and white? Thats right because in the real word you have to back up what you say with evidens, and add campaign managers have done study to find that colorfull adds are more convincing. Oh and how many bilboards do you see on the side of the highway that are lik 2 foot by 3 foot ? None because larg adds are more easily read and more convincing. Thats life these forums and runscape are not. And your talking about large companys working on projects, not the young (more young people play runescape) people trying to help out others. Plus theres a difference between spending time on a project to make money and spending time on a guide to help others free of charge. You example is more closely related to two woodcutting shops competting to finish and order first or cheeper. The fact is that even in the real werld when a person spends there time to help others free of charge they dont get "rejected" as you sed. Please i really dont enjoy having my topic flamed, exspcially when almost nothing you sed aplied at all to my thread. Except a guy with an extensive imagination could relate your examples to what i am trying to say. Theres a big differnece bettween doing a project for money and getting rejected, and helping another human free of charge and being rejected.

i would put in the max money, because that way you get more recources per day hence making more money per day. also i would always keep my aproval rating above 90%, other wise your wasting to much money, 100% is i deal. as for were to put the workers i am not sure.

I dont have knowledge of the internal runnings of these forums and as far as i know you may be right. The fact is that i am not talking about the usefullness of the guide, im talking about the fact that a human spends there valuble time (that could be spent else where) on making guide that gets locked. im just saying i dont think it will hurt to leave those guides up, let them get bummed on to the next pages and forget about them. Atleast then the wrighter dosent feel there time was wasted, esentially it was wasted all the same, but they feel better, hence being happier, hence making the forums a more friendly place. i really hate to post oposing posts, every time some one disagrees with me, but i so firmly believe in this i feel it necisary to explian to others the point i am trying to make.

some post do get locked for good resons, im not talking about that, im talking about guides being locked because the mod dosent find them as helpfull as other guides. and plz dont lie to me, i fail to believe that after spending over 2hrs on a long guide with pics and all, you would not be the slitest bit upset to see that you time was wasted. it is only human to want your time to be well spent, noone wants to have there time wasted. and your 2hrs that you took to make the guide that got locked is in a scens wasted. I bellieve all guides that have had a person devote their time to trying to help other tip.iters, should have a chance, not just get locked after 2 posts.(lets face they could spend there time on better things, hanging out with rl world friends, leveling or what ever it may be). The entire point here is respect those people who devote their time makeing guides they feel will help the tip.it community (lets face it no one spends 2hrs on a guide if they dont honestly think it will help another). People could spend there time on them selves, gaining levs, but they dont they spend it on guides trying to help others, and then the guide gets locked? plz people im asking you to look deeper into this subject than a guide being locked. im asking you to look at how mean it is to lock a persons time, esentialy locking their time. Again, People could spend there time on them selves, gaining levs, but they dont they spend it on guides trying to help others, and then the guide gets locked The point is as humans we dont lock another persons time. They devote their time to help others, time they could spend on them selves, and that time gets locked. i know some of the younger players dont understand the deepness of what i am trying to get across, and i am going in depth and trying to do the best job of explaingin i can.

i see all of your points, and personly think that there is no subsitute for tip.its official quest guides. That was just an example i have seen this happen before, one was a guide (forgot what it was about, not a quest), another example ive seen mods lock guides becaus they (mod) has a simmilar guide. There are more examples, put im not going to look throung pages of post to find them. As sed before "i personly think that there is no subsitute for tip.its official quest guides", but some people want alternitives, the guide i have linked above has a picture we all aree on that, and lets face it some people are visual learners (a picture tells a thousand words). ounse agin that quest guide is just an example, im metioning it more becaus i have a link to it. The point here is just to prevent people who are trying to make helpfull guides from getting there work locked. If the giude is truley deemed unhelpful by the tip.it community, then it wont get many post and will move on down the page and soon on to the next pages. but atleast give them a chance dont lock there hard work after only 3 posts. Now to those of you who post here, i dont want to know if you think the linked guide should have been locked or why it was (its is just an example guide). I want to know how you would feel if you spent your time making a guide that you feel would help opthers, only to find that after 2 or so posts a mod that didnt find it helpfull locked it? plz tell me the truth which i dont think is going to be "id feel glad my hard work got locked"

Ok here it goes. Frankly, i feel bad for all those ppl who work hard and spend there time making guides , or anyother kind of post that in thier mind is for the commoin good. And after a few post it gets locked... I know that personly i have not posted much but my posts are long, and in the past have taken over an hour on one post (never made a guide), so i cant imagine how long it takes to make a guide. I have seen this happen way to many times, and in my mind i think mods might need to be a littel easier on ppl who make posts that the mods dont think will be helpfull. (lets face it most mods have higher levs). ok... here is what finally made me decide to do something about this. In the Archive of Wisdom forum their is the subforum "Player-Made Guides: Skills, Mini Games & Quests", there it is plain as day a forum were we can post player made quest guides. ok heres the link to the guide that i will us as an example. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=686265 alright so heres this person posting what they think will be helpful, a player made guide on horror from the deep quest. and after 3 post what happens, thats right this well thought out guide with pics and all gets locked, and the reason, becaus tip.it alredy has an official guide on that quest. well is it not also true that tip.it has a guide on barrows and fight caves, yet there are still many player made guides on those. so it is clear that some guides get locked just because they are thought to be lees helpfull than others. well tip.it has an official guide on almost everything so if we got rid of all post because there was alredy a guide on that there the archive of wisdom would be pretty empty. if your going to lock quest guide posts anyways, then plz remove it from the description of the supforum, so as to save posters the truble of posting and wrighting a guide doomed to be locked anyways. i am not just talking about quest guides, but other lower lev guides. plz mods dont get mad i am just trying to help ppl, I personly would hate my hard work of making a guide to got to waste. Again, People could spend there time on them selves, gaining levs, but they dont they spend it on guides trying to help others, and then the guide gets locked The point is as humans we dont lock another persons time. They devote their time to help others, time they could spend on them selves, and that time gets locked. so, what do you think?

only 1 pineapple is used per supper compost, but you need a minnimum of 15 to close the bin to start decomposing. you cant use 5 pineapple and 10 weeds and get 5 supper and 10 reg compost , theyll al be regular. so you put in 15 pineapple get out 15 supper compost
