Yeah that's what I expected. But if there using a full inv of brews, that would not only cost a lot but would also take a lot of effort. Depending on how much damage per ep% it could actually cost money to use brews, that's my point.

Feel free to poke a hole in my theory because I haven't thoroughly thought this through, but wouldn't making ep earned by damaged did/taken fix this? Think about it, make the damage you do on a pvp world to another player will increase your ep by a ratio related to your hp in some way. That way 26k have to spend money on food to gain ep, something that could cost a lot of money(although i'm sure they'll find a very cheap food to use), something that will require a good amount of baking, and a good amount of activity (versus the ability to afk with the current system.) Also pjers who arent in combat very long, will gain very little ep, hurting them as well. Killing someone would affect ep% the same way, so people 1 iteming in lumbridge wouldn't gain ep quickly, or maybe even at all.

Pantim it's obvious you have no experience with pking at low levels, let alone obby maulers. With 5 attack on one of my obby maulers I would estimate that i still hit people with 40 def about 1/2 the time. Thats a 35 level difference, 5 attack vs 20 defense would still hit a very consistent amount. Balanced players will always lose to pures, its simple fact, mains have tried and tried but they will never be a player with pking oriented stats. The only people who believe this are mains who have tried pking a couple times semi successfully. (Don't assume I said that all mains suck at pking, because ultimately its about 60% skill, but saying that balanced stats are better than pvp oriented stats is just ignorance.) The high weapon stats of the obby maul help make up for the lack of attack a lot, not to mention will the help of a berserker necklace. Obby maulers can be dominant at any level if used correctly. Btw, the argument you had for consistent damage means nothing. All pking relies on the ko to kill people, its not a death match. If it were a no running death match with both players safing, sure someone with defense would probably win. But those defense levels take away from their attack and strength levels, not allowing them to hit as high as needed for a successful ko. If you cant ko someone your not going to kill them, a balanced player will always lose to a pure, not to mention a pure with the koing power of the obby maul.

This just made stealing free membership a lot easier. Not that I do... :shock:

This is absolutely ridiculous. I clicked a penguin a couple times on my pure when i saw it in varrock, it was the first time i ever clicked a penguin, i didn't even know what they were so i clicked it. I got a perm ban, and its still says appeal pending or whatever. I mean I didn't even cash in the points! Jagex needs to get their [cabbage] in order!

You've obviously never argued with an idiot then. All they understand is more idiocy. Trying to reason with them will result in wasting your time, while a quick and easy FU gets the job done in a way they can understand. :thumbup:

Didn't people used to find out where stuff like this is by taking all the clue stuff and finding the coordinates at the location, then putting the coordinates in the tip.it locator? Seems like it would work but never actually tried myself.

When I saw this thread I knew it would be filled with ignorant skillers ranting about pkers like always here at tip.it... -.- First of all "honor" pking is there to make the pking more enjoyable. When people safe it cuts down the death factor subtantially, the best part of killing someone is the KO. You people are thinking PvM minded, the goal is not to survive, eating anytime your hp isnt at full, the goal is to kill your opponent. You people see safing as something that should be widespread. But lets look at the scenario: Both players are safing non stop, by the time they both run out of food they run, with have no opportunity to KO the whole fight(unless there dming). So the reason they started fighting, to the kill the other person, became obsolete. If your whole pking career consisted of this, there would be absolutely no fun in it, unless you enjoy wasting supplies. Second, The pvp worlds are so low because there's over 15 of them. When pking was around there was 3 or 4 at most that were used. If you add up all the people on the worlds right now, it's way more than were on when the old wildy was around. Finally, how would you guys know what kind of pkers are on these pvp worlds? I guarantee 95% of the people on this thread haven't spent more than 2 hours on pvp servers. The first week in no way will demonstrate the status qoe of the community. Pjers, telers, etc. will always be present when it comes to pking, it was like long before the pvp worlds, hell they were present back in rsc days. There are still honor pkers out there, and all the non honor techniques are still frowned upon in the community. Don't comment about things you know nothing about (I know that's not everyone on this thread).

Ok, it's obvious tip.it is a very anti-pking forum, so i'll show you why you shouldn't safe. People pk or pvp for the fun and loot of it right? When someone is eating as a point that makes it impossible for the other person to ko, you don't have any fun or get any loot. The killing part is what everyone loves, so whats the point of fighting with no killing? It's just a waste of money. You people act like your fighting a monster 3 times your level with the primary purpose being to survive. Pking isn't about survival, its about killing other players. (Unless your tanking for whatever reason)

Making money off of other people's work ftl. I worked for 95 fishing. I think I can get some free fish for a bit. I don't get that logic, still making money/ breaking even with rune cost from other peoples' work, just because you worked for 95 fish what gives you the right? I don't see a rule against it. And who wouldn't want profit from doing a skill? I do help in the mini game sometimes. But if I can't free load sometimes what gives the other 70k+ people the right to? [/hide] if 70 thousand+ people jump off a bridge are you going to? :shock: It's just because you said profit from mage... Could have been avoided if you didn't say that :? That stupid old saying has no logic to it. The consequences of jumping off a bridge is death, the consequences of free loading on a video game is nothing, I'm pretty sure that has more of an impact on your decision than other peoples decisions. :roll:

^another victim of the crap hole Jagex calls a report system.

Welcome to the club. Jagex may claim to that someone will look at every report, but if thats true that someone must be a monkey that only knows how to hit the "Ban" button. I got reported for making a joke about someone giving away their stuff, because they just said they were quiting. I even said "lol jk" right after, which was in the evidence. I got a 2 week mute and when I tried to appeal it got denied in less than 2 minutes. :? Most people don't believe how bad the report system has become until something ridiculous like this happens to them. (Including myself)

I was reported and auto denied for something just as stupid. There customer service is absolute trash, they dont even notice an obvious joke... (I even said jk in my evidence)

i'm pretty sure the tip.it calc doesn't add the 20% for zerker necklace. #-o

This is the stupidest idea I've ever heard.... :wall:
