usually the game takes a while when first played, but if you play it often it is much quicker.

Too late, i've already done it. I was one of those really frustarting ones that aren't all that fun. The other parts of it were fine though. Someone asked me how to open the door and i explained i couldn't really remember how, as it was trial and error, and kept bugging me. Another idiot kept trying to sell me the oil and to other people, depsite me saying it was no tradable and that we can't pick it up. He still went around saying it was for sale, after failing to sell it to two people :(

Funny this came up, I just started playing again after a few years break.

def-37
prayer-27
mining- 54
smithing-46

I recently became a member to check it out, and I must say it is really cool. The quests are a lot less tedious than the free world quests, and the huge size of the map makes the game feel a lot more complete. Also, people are SO much less nooby, Aragorn's situation, along with many other memberable ones (someone telling me the mith shortsword he was selling was better than my addy battleaxe) wont come up.

Oh, if anyone who is just starting up wants me to make them some steel armor, I could easily do it.

Just a thankyou to all those from IW that have helped me in various ways, Marty and Burnzey partcularly, much appriciated. THere a some really noce people on there, willing to help etc, i try to help when i can, i've even been making free bronze and iron stuff for noobs, just to boost my smithing, unfortunately there are some really childish people too, not enough to ruin it though.

Thanks. Yea, Miniclip.com has been bringing in the world's population of 3rd graders to the game, which really makes it kinda annoying with beggars, scammers, etc.

BTW anyone who is trying to message me, I am now using the file Angry Possum.

it is a good idea to have different account for different things. for instance if ur a warrior, dont get up on skills. either die and regenerate with 3 items or buy ur food. however, if you make a different account, (not including archer and mage and warrior) make him all the sklls you want. etc: smith and miner, makes free armour very quick, or a fisher man with a good cooking lvl. play your cards right.

i just saw one of them people with gold crowns next to their name. he told me alot of things about the game, he said the esiest way to make money is by fishing. nothing else matters besides fishing.

Great, that's one of the skills neglected, i'm lvl 2, still my mining and smithing are my strength, 32 and 26 respectively, whihc isn't bad for my level really, 21. Minig ess a quick money earner, a 5 min trip makes 540 gold @20 each and there is usually someone buying, unlike with other items.

yeah but 20gp.. little low aye? i go for 30 gp and depends on the mining lvl and pik axe. another good way is selling coal, buy some from drugo (40gp at least) and sell it for 180gp.
i seriously need help with mage burnz.. i keep dying and every time i die, i always have 300 mind runes. it sucks..

hehe try saying jazz in the game, they think its a swear word!

Wasn't jazz a slang for porn at one point?

If you need a few runes I've got about 50 my account you can have, not very special but you may want them. Also I sell them @20 cause there is always someone buying at that price. If someone is willing to pay 30 i'll take it, but its not worth waiting for.
