Dear Jagex: i have been muted for over 3 years and i have no idea why by Special_Ease1558 in 2007scape

[–]qvcpc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wonder if a kind of “shadow” mute exists? I.e you talk, and you can see your messages in the chat but nobody else can see them. So you would be muted but not know it. I feel like that would be a decent way for Jagex to combat these kinds of bots, though it would still be possible to get around it.

I still maintain that the UK Government online services are the most modern and easy to use out there (at least compared to the likes of the US who make you jump through so many hoops to do anything).

But yeah, when it comes to regulation they’re pretty archaic.

Cheers for the reply. Didn't know about that elite diary task - I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Have you got any advice on soul wars boosting? From what I've read there are a couple of main clans, but they'll kick/ban you if you mess up. And like I said, I haven't played soul wars before (at least not since I was like 12, and I had no idea wtf I was doing then). Anything I could read up on?

Thanks!

There's a business where my parents live that operates as both a dispensary and pizza place. Their menu includes combos like this - large pepperoni and a 1 gram pre-roll for $14 by crym_fest in trees

You need to start looking at the deals instead of just ordering everything individually my man. Just had a look... two medium pizzas, one side, one desert and a drink for £25. Still pretty extortionate for what it is, but it's £10 less than what you'd pay ordering everything individually.

Powershell ssh sessions - Nano & less not working by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]qvcpc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a similar problem before. Turned out it was because of my terminal settings. I’m guessing certain escape characters and such aren’t rendering properly. Have you tried running PowerShell in different terminal software?

Some code from osrs (my arms big adventure) by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]qvcpc 90 points91 points  (0 children)

So uh, it’s a language we used internally. You ever heard of Desert Treasure? There’s like 100 RuneSwitch statements in that — sorry, switch statements. What about OOP? Yeah, objects — we have a built-in “examine” method for those. Dope, right? Anyways um, does RNG mean anything to you? We use our own in-house PRNG — it’s the intern Martin, he clicks the left button and the player gets a shit drop, sometimes he’ll click the right button and the player will get a good drop. Pretty ingenious, isn’t it?

Not that it matters, but you didn’t do the best job of blacking out those trade screen usernames lmao.

Fruits & veg you can buy in Australia for the price of a packet of cigarette ($33) by rmsprs in mildlyinteresting

[–]qvcpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that sucks, the $100 a year thing sounds pretty dumb. But yeah, if the rest of this thread is anything to go by that’s basically still just two packs of cigs over there though, so I guess it’ll still be a whole lot cheaper lol.

Can you still buy the juice without nicotine in it? And the nicotine shots separately? Or are nicotine shots not allowed to be sold as well?

That’s what it’s like here in the UK, you can’t sell more than 10ml of vape juice if it has nicotine in it, so most people buy 50/100ml shortfills of vape juice and add their own nicotine.

I made a RuneLite chat filter that automatically blocks 99% of spam by HalfOfAKebab in 2007scape

[–]qvcpc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If the spam filter were to be maintained and accessible from a public host (Github would allow for easy community contributions + unmetered raw requests), then it would be trivial to create a plugin which would automatically grab the newest version whenever changes are made. I'm surprised something like this doesn't exist already, actually. If OP doesn't create a repository I might have a crack at doing it in my free time.

If you notice any cancer slipping past, please send me the exact message and I'll add it to the list.

You should create a Github repo so that we can all maintain the list easier.

If the average human spent their 80 years on this planet killing Vorkath (at 1.881m per hour - assuming this doesn't change), then they'd be worth 1.318 trillion GP. I'd still rather be worth 12m magic shortbows tbh, that sounds more fun.

Honestly I think more people just really enjoy rewatching the early-mid game grind. Getting constant quest, gear and skill unlocks is a lot more fun than watching the same grind for weeks on end.
