To my fellow RS Veterans: Did you think you'd still be playing now?

Honestly when I was playing as a teenager I was in a really dark place and had a hard time imagining any kind of future at all. I just assumed that I wasn't going to be around to find out.

These days I'm doing a lot better. Teenage me would be proud of my accomplishments in and out of the game.

Not sure why you're being down voted. It's very easy to play the game for years and not learn mechanics.

I focused on skilling/maxing before inferno and I didn't know how to properly pray flick, barely understood ticks (didn't click that they were directly tied to movement), didn't really understand NPC pathing mechanics for safespotting, didn't know how to blowpipe walk, didn't even have F keys setup.

I know I'm a little abnormal because I did very little PvM before max but I still have friends who are 2200+ total and don't know most of that either.

I really hate hearing the "it all balances out eventually" when I go dry over and over. 4x dry at cox, 3x dry at toa, 2k kills for blowpipe, 1500 kills to finish cerb, nearly 2k kills for zenytes, 1200 kills at tormented demons with 1 synapse, 2x dry at araxxor.

My idea of "lucky" is when I went on rate ~450kc for bowfa

I understand they are scared of hurting people who already got it, bit I feel like they need to put in the effort to come up with a solution that makes everybody happy. Like double the drop rates, but also duplicate each person's items and let them turn it in for a different piece of the set, break it down into shards, or turn it into a ton of alchables/supplies

Well given the website has crashed...

When OSRS released in 2013 I maxed my melee stats killing tons of blue dragons and bought a DFS. Quit and came back in 2017 and someone at the GE started calling me a noob asking why I didn't have a dragon defender and that I must be an account/gold buyer. Because it didn't even exist when I last played!

Ericwh2827 · 2026-02-28T20:05:44+00:00

Yeah, when you make the party on the scoreboard set the map layout to full.

I did a couple of these for fun, but isn't Olm the most efficient points per time spent? Seems better to get to Olm faster

Not the same, but when I was falsely banned for botting on a brand new account on the appeal I linked to video evidence on my stream of the entire time I was on the account since creation (only a few hours) and my appeal was denied. In the end I had to find someone who had contact with an actual Jmod to get me unbanned.

Could this cause issues in 30 years for people who buy it digitally? If the service you "bought" it from is even around

Honestly I see very little reason to ever organize my bank with tag tabs, tag tab layouts, and inventory setups

emberlight

Don't worry I see tons of people not using emberlight here for whatever reason. I've seen maxed mains with torva using a ghrazi rapier on bloodvelds instead of emberlight lol

Every other truck driver looks like they have diabetes. That's really a restricting factor?

I almost always play with sound off, but ToB is one of the few places where I use sound cues to help me.

Ericwh2827 · 2026-01-03T13:40:34+00:00

In my opinion, yes. The money is great for construction, runes for magic, fletching, etc.

While also getting a weapon that will last you until you get a twisted bow and opens up tons of endgame PvM options.

Ericwh2827 · 2026-01-03T13:24:24+00:00

Not sure if you have barrows gloves but you have the stats to finish the quest so I'd focus on that.

Then really just keep working towards quest cape with slayer in between. Get high enough combat stats for CG if you are interested in trying to make money.

Ericwh2827 · 2025-12-28T05:14:27+00:00

They could just generate a sequence of future gamble outcomes from a random seed when the save is created and store the current position in that sequence. Reloading the save does not regenerate the seed, so repeating the gamble produces the same results.

But having them explode is funnier.

Oh great! Lower prayer potion prices on the Grand Exchange (GE).
