  1. CAPTCHA is circumventable. I'm more inclined to say bring back the old 'aggressive' randoms - river troll, tree ent, drunk dwarf etc. With the item kept on death finally being fixed after all these years (ie you no longer lose a partyhat over your rune armor), I'd say bring them back, why not.
  2. :wall: Yeah... wrong thread. :oops:
  3. Well, at least we know they are doing well financially.
  4. My main problem with RSC is not the difficulty (It actually made skilling feel very accomplished) but the tiny screen size. It was fine back in 2001-2003 when half of us still used those bulky CRT monitors, which which were able switch to 800x600 or 1024x768 to have a sizable view, but these days with 1080p LCD screens, it just doesn't work. It's way too small on my 23'' widescreen monitor. (And don't say you can switch you resolution because anything outside of your LCD's non-native resolution just looks bad)
  5. How skills felt so accomplished and rewarding back then... I really wish this final reopening wasn't the official death of it. Sure there are 500 players on it right now, but in a few months that will most likely dwindle down to the teens again. I personally don't care for the classic cape. It's not like it meant you were around in during RS1 anyway.
  6. I've heard of this type of hacking. Basically there is a group of hackers that only target inactive accounts. Over months they will attempt to gain as much personal information about the account as they can. They may even attempt to hack your email account if they know it (to see if you have emails from Jagex that contain your past transactions - so delete those if you have not and store them somewhere on your computer/usb/external etc). They'll attempt to recover many times though fail, but at some point they will finally have a successful attempt. Now as to why they only do this to inactive accounts? Because of bank pins. An active player will come to the realization their account has been compromised within a day or two after it actually happens. They'll re-recover the account, and cancel the bank pin cancellation request. From that point it's useless for the hacker to keep trying because all it will result in is an account lock, and the account will go back to the rightful owner anyway. They go after players they know are loaded, or suspect to be loaded. They'll take your items, and sell them in the black market. To them a successful hack could be worth thousands, if not over $100,000 (as in the case of Chessy018). I find it extremely stupid that Jagex does not notify you of a recovery attempt via in-game or maybe even via email/text (for inactive players). At least in that case you could completely prevent a successful hacking (and stealing of items) if the hacker actually manages to get on your account.
  7. I think F2P should be given the King Black Dragon (with a revised F2P drop table). But that's about it.
  8. Yes. Up to now they have been a... one hit wonder.
  9. Oh great. Now bot armies will be getting an extra 10% experience on top of everyone else at no additional cost (since they were going to be paid for anyway).
  10. Agility. It's probably my favorite non-buyable skill. Then con - my least favorite buyable.
  11. While true, it's something Jagex has to do unfortunately. Otherwise the new player will be way too overwhelmed. You can't expect the new players to have to spend 5+ years just to catch up to everyone else.
  12. Technically if you RWT you are supposed to report the "income" to the IRS... (not than any RWTers do)
  13. Why do they have to play catchup? What about the players joining today that are potentially almost 10 years behind some players. I think they're all mostly botting.
  14. Some of you need to accept that your time spent on this game is completely meaningless. If Jagex is going to ever going to release RS3 and expect it to be successful, they can't expect new players to have to play catchup against the multi-year vets especially when the game has already been around for this long. If the idea of a new game and new sense of adventure (I'd say I had the most fun on RS when I was a complete noob) don't outweigh the false happiness caused by a dopamine release in your brain every time you get that level, you should spend less time on the game. Though as someone else has mentioned, RS3 will probably be much like RS1 to RS2 if that ever happens. I'd prefer to start from the beginning... you know when skills were actually useful. But that's just me. I've already come to terms with the X time I've spent on this game -> meaningless.
