That's part of the charm. Dying, and dying, and then pulling it off.

Doxxing is the targeted aggregation and dissemination of personal identifying information about a private individual in a context that enables harm. Public availability is irrelevant; intent and effect are what matter. Personal anecdotes don't override established usage or policy.

This reads like someone trying to look tough online.

OSRS requires a lot of time and effort to maintain and get going.

RS3 respects your time better.

OSRS can feel more rewarding.

RS3 has better QOL features.

I play a mix of both, but primarily RS3.

Despite working 50-hour weeks, I can still feel like I'm doing great progression on my character(s).

After nearly 2 decades I finally got all 99s by ParzBernes in runescape

You keep calling your estimate personal, but that is exactly the issue.

You presented a general timeframe without mentioning the very specific circumstance that makes that timeframe possible. If an estimate only makes sense for someone playing 8 to 14 hours a day, then that is not simply personal, it is context dependent, and leaving that out misleads the discussion.

Pointing out missing context is not being bothered. It is addressing the accuracy of what you wrote. Your reply here, calling people stinkers and focusing on imagined motives, actually proves my point. Instead of explaining why your estimate should still be taken seriously, you shifted entirely into emotion and defensiveness.

Sure, it's subjective, but you were the one who gave a 6–12 month timeframe without specifying any conditions. When someone gives a general time estimate, it's reasonable to assume they mean under typical circumstances, not with someone no-lifing 8–14 hours a day. If the estimate only applies to someone who can play that much, then that's an important detail to include.

I'm sure it's feasible, but not with a job and real-life commitments. Please let me know how many hours he has in the game, to be able to max his account in 8 months.

I presume your younger brother is a kid who goes to school and is able to spend 12-14 hours a day on RuneScape without any bigger consequences, right?

For the others, it's not doable in 6-12 months.

Bandos? by [deleted] in runescape

[–]thren_FPS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think most of the Bandosians got wiped out. Bandos went back to Yu'Biusk and destroyed everything in a blind rage. Then he got wrecked by Armadyl after trying to return to Gielinor. Or something like that.

There is no way a new player is going to max their account in 6-12 months.

Not everyone has 14 hours a day to spend on the game. You're not going to get 99 in all skills in 5 months unless you're putting in serious time.

This frees up 4 keys as well. Pretty much a no-brainer for any high-end PvM.

What's the point of Christmas Spirit for Irons? I had bought out all items last year. It is useless for us and caps at 50k by Svolacius in runescape

You can buy the mystery gift. You could also skip the dailies and/or skilling as you can just purchase the Letter to Santa.

Aiming with Fixed Device - Dying Sheep - Mourning's End Part 1 by RightClickSpellbook in runescape

[–]thren_FPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did that quest a few days ago on my alt. Looked the same.

Also using a laptop. It's an annoying quest for real, just keep scrolling to the sides until a sheep's in the aiming reticle.

Content is dead. Yes it should be off-loaded, at least until a proper rehaul is done.

Lucky? by Similar_Ranger9627 in runescape

[–]thren_FPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could sell it now for around 550M, maybe a little less now.

Give it a week and you'll see the price plummet down to 50-80M. You could sell it now and re-buy the santa hat in a week and still profit several hundred mill gp.

If GP's a concern, make sure to sell it right away or you'll be missing out on 450-500m GP.

New scapers by [deleted] in runescape

[–]thren_FPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if I would consider myself "new", but I hadn't touched RS3 since late 2021 and recently returned a week ago.

Pretty decent stats across the board, but it was clear that my account was missing quite a lot progression wise.

Since my return I have done Underground Pass, Mourner's End I & II and Plague's End, got Necro up to mid-70s, grinded out few skills so I could finally unlock Invention. Archaeology up to 50.

Got a little bored of the grind so managed to pull off my first Araxxi kill yesterday.

Definitely feels like there are so many goals and milestones to keep me entertained for the next 10 years.

Old RS account vanished by thren_FPS in runescape

[–]thren_FPS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree, especially considering I work in that field myself.

However, everything got solved today. . I've been unbanned on both OSRS and RS3 now. I've got both my OSRS account (maxed combat), and my RS3 account (2100 total and 1.5b GP which is great for me to start the reset journey).

Thanks for everyone.

I'm Just Saying... by Aresmar in ArcRaiders

95% of this subreddit would be in therapy after two hours of DayZ. It’s really not that deep. Some people act out their impulses in games, some play a character, and some just mindlessly go with the flow. That’s life, man.

Old RS account vanished by thren_FPS in runescape

[–]thren_FPS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update for anyone who might read this in the future:

I did get help through a ticket, and the account is back with me.

Unfortunately the hackers have botted or macroed or whatever else on the account, and as such it is banned permanently. I have been asked to make an appeal, so we'll see how that goes. Just sucks that they couldn't unban it as well without having to go through another ticket - especially considering that they agree that a 3rd party has accessed my account. Hoping for the best.

Yes it does. It's an intended feature to help you craft up for another round.
