What the gently caress are RuneCoins? Those weren't a thing six years ago.

What they renamed the purchasable currency for their old non-Runescape games site, and is what you use to buy things in the stupid cosmetic bullshit store.

There's more people with 200m XP in agility than people who have 100-199m in it. Think about it.

Once you get past 100m xp in it you're already certifiably insane and aren't going to stop.

If you don't agree that pure 200m coins and huge xp items are way more useful than the "lucky" items, we can't be friends. :colbert:

I know, but I thought they didn't care/were bad at stopping it.

Yeah they figured out how to be good at stopping it. :shrug:

And they really didn't have an incentive to disable the anti-bot stuff only on the members servers or something, because that would be way too complicated.

Can any British goons explain what the heck "British bulldog" is?

British bulldog is pretty much the same as a bald eagle for us americans

Granted he didn't actually put this in game... or maybe he did and we just don't know it yet.

Jagex has actual lawyers to watch out for crap like that, since it'd get them sued to hell and back by Hasbro.

The whole point of the Combat Beta is to try dumb bullshit like this with real players but without loving up the main game.

Awesome, thanks for the tips. As far as levelling poo poo up, my plan was to quest my attack to 40 and then use a rune scimitar in defensive mode to level def/hp while grinding slayer. Once I got my defense and HP to satisfactory levels, I was going to curse spam my magic up to an appropriate level.

Is that a reasonably efficient way to level combat stats or am I doing something stupid here?

There are no efficent ways to do anything in 07scape.

OSRS's skeleton crew manages to pull off amazing quality updates at a pace that RealJagex can't even compare to. How long has 2014scape been promising TT revamps

It's easy when you can let everything look like utter and complete poo poo squeezed into a tiny rear end window, and get all your ideas from improvements previously made.

Hmm. Is there anything slightly more passive that's a decent money/effort ratio?

Player owned ports will get you enough every week or so to cover a bond for two weeks of membership, but only if you've already got a few level 90+ in the right skills and only after a few months of voyages.

you don't have to do anything besides click a few menus a few times a day to start and then by the later stages only once a day
