My Runescape Diary

I just thought I would take the time to write about ignorance on Runescape, its no more than many have experienced but a little bit of thinking and some possible confrontation could have been avoided.

I had a slayer task for Hell Hounds, Hell Hounds are OK for slayer xp but the drops are carp, they mainly drop gold charms so pretty much useless all round, some people kill them for clues but greater demons are better for clues have better charm drops and the odd good normal drop plus their easier to kill.
To get the task over as quickly as possible I decide to take my cannon to Taverly dungeon where I can set it up to kill about 4 or 5 at a time, I went to my usual spot and started cannoning, Hounds were falling all around with the normal gold charm and bones, never needing to pick up either I stayed and ranged the close Hounds and let my cannon do the rest, after a while a player comes along and says "OMFG", then "FFS" followed by "don't you have any consideration for others" I chose to stay quiet because it is not worth arguing, arguing only creates the opportunity for aggression and possibly people saying things that they may regret later, my only sentence had I not remained silent would have been, "I changed world 4 times to find a world with no one here it wont do you any harm to tolerate me until my task is complete or for you to find another world without a cannon".
Why a player comes to a training area and expect others to change the way they train when they arrive is beyond me.

Cash for newbs
I have a newb account that I keep just to get the holiday items, I was playing him the other day to get the Easter event stuff, after I got the emote and the carrot I decided to have a play with it and went to chop some logs, I had spent a few minutes earlier in the year so was 40 wood cutting already.
Chopping away I got to the level for an addy axe and upgraded by selling the logs I had chopped, I went to Draynor Village to chop the willows but was attacked by the mages, I couldn't be bothered to hide at the far end just to chop so I went to the oak trees near Varrock, I used my Addy axe and within a few hours I got high enough to use a rune axe, I sold the Oak logs for max on GE, they sold instantly and sold for more than the willows would have, I then bought a Rune axe and continued to chop, I got to 50 wc and sold all the logs I had, I had 50k, that was 50k on a level 7 combat account not including the money spent on the rune axe, so after 2 to 3 hours I had made 50k on an entry level account.

Many of the begging comments I get after free accounts state they have a level 3 account and only 100gp, after only a few hours of work I had gained 50k, had full steel armour and some other bits and pieces, why do these beggars expect to have a good account when they cant be bothered to train their own (alleged) account for a few minutes.
Money can be made easily just by training a skill and sticking at it, the longer you stick at it the more you will get, choose a skill you like and stick with it and cash will flow.

I will train that account to chop yews when the next holiday event is released or when I'm fed up of not levelling, It did give me an understanding of why skill pures find motivation, It was nice to have a low level account with old holiday items and more cash and higher skill levels than some of the other players, I am not going to train it as a skill pure because I like combat but I will stick at it for now.
