Hi there!

Welcome
Welcome to our wiki ;-). Always nice to have some high leveled people out here. I hope you'll enjoy it. -- 10:13, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

RE: High alch and low alch prices
Thanks for the tip! I will use that in the future. Also, thanks for congratulating me. :P

If you have any questions or tips for me, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page.

Poison (status)
I'm not sure if we have a page for this, and since you seem to not only be a high level but also interested in this wiki:

I tested a bit on NPC poisons, and this is my notes:
 * Poison damages 5 times for a set amount, then said damage decreases by 1 and repeat
 * I have a suspicion this can be reset by NPCs, since when I was testing on poison scorpions, I got hit "3" 6 times via poison.
 * Poison hits once every ~20 seconds; it's based on server
 * As a side-effect, it can be stalled by waiting ~18 seconds after hit by poison, then log out and relog after the 20th second passed.
 * Curiously, heal over time isn't server based, and the "1 minute heal" timer resets at log, so you can't use the heal over time to recover poison at all if you stall.
 * The most poisonous NPC I've encountered so far are the Tribesman on Brimhaven. They poison 8 or 9 iirc.

I haven't tested on Weapon poison against other players due to lack of players, so not sure if it applies as well.

Oh, and on a related note, Poison already exists as an item, so not sure if the status page should use that name with the item moved to Poison (item) or call the status Poison (status).

 * Making Poison a disambig page seems fine.

Wikia logo
That seems fine. I'll merge it. Thanks! :) --Jlun2 (talk) 07:58, October 17, 2014 (UTC)
 * Er....I saved it and uploaded it onto Title and deleted your upload since I realized I got no clue how to merge. >.>--Jlun2 (talk) 08:02, October 17, 2014 (UTC)

Item Store Prices
Hello there!

I am new to Wikias and I just started fixing some of the things I noticed out there, pretty much according to what I was doing in the game at the moment. You changed some of the potion, anti dragon breat shield, etc. store prices that I had market with "Not sold" recently.

Are we supposed to just put the General Store price to items Store price that are not sold in any stores? I thought that Store price is what the item costs in stores. Sure, you can sell almost any tradeable item to General Store but that isn't very helpful for the person looking to buy that item. I would personally much rather see "NOT SOLD" there, knowing I had to get that item as a player trade, monster drop, or some other way.

Also, is Sale price like the street value of the item?

Hey! About Rare drop table...
Isn't there a rare drop table just like in RS2?

I don't see why not... I am adding some drop tables to monsters and there could be more proper way to add:

- half keys

- uncut sapphires, emeralds, rubies, diamonds

- left dragon square half

We don't know the formula but the chance to roll from rare drop table is most likely based on combat level. Exception are Shadow Warriors which have higher chance for rare drop table than their combat level suggests.

As far as I know these are the only items on the rare drop table in Classic. Rune Spear might also be one. But dragon med and cut dragonstones are monster specific boss drops. What do you think? Either we make rare drop table article or add those 6-7 drops to every monster that has a chance to drop even one of them.

Considering drinks
Hey Stormy, I am considering adding drink navigations. Is it worth it to make it separate from food nav? Almost all drinks heal. I am also thinking whether we should add category:Drinks or not. Some of the drinks have already been categorised as foods, I guess it would be a subcategory of Foods if anything. Tbh, I'd prefer just adding Drinks section to current food nav. It would be rather large navigational template but very useful for users.

Adminship
Hi Stormy! I was wondering if you wanted to be an administrator here. You and Mith are obviously the two people driving the project, and you'd probably both be better off with admin rights so you don't have to wait for absentee sysops to show up (myself included).

Overhead actions
Is there a page for the overhead icons that appear when you do an action? I'm not sure how many actions result in an icon, but I know woodcutting and fishing does.--Jlun2 (talk) 21:00, November 26, 2014 (UTC)

Please review
Please review this discussion and the edit histories of the two involved, and make a decission on whether the newly appointed administrator is qualified to handle himself in the best interest and purpose of this community encyclopedia. Please also reconsider the ability of his cohort to revert any such decision made therein. Additionally, please do not blindly provide people with such abilities. With an increased number of editors, which is in no small part due to Jagex re-opening Classic for the next two months, I propose that now is the time to make use of the Maple Grove to hold public discussions concerning the user rights of editors. I acknowledge that discussions on this wiki take time, and I support it. When abuse of person and of content is at hand, such decisions should not be made on a whim. After all, such abilities should be granted to those people who have long proven themselves to handle them in accordance with established regulation and overall benefit of the wiki, granted when such a need to share such abilities is necessary, and granted to someone who will not abandon the wiki or greatly reduce its use within a few months time. Lastly, I'm writing on your talk page directly in hopes that you will be notified of such message and read it before those involved remove it. 162.72.117.100 (talk) 06:16, January 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * I haven't appointed any administrators. As far as I was aware I didn't have that ability. There was probably a reason I kept the PNG of the fountain around after creating an animated gif but I can't really remember it right now. Maybe something to do with preserving 32-bit colour. I don't really mind one way or the other. I agree with 5-x's position on the manual section. All layout and content was copied directly from the archived website. I might have used a script to convert the tables from HTML to wiki markup. They're not supposed to be edited, so I don't see any point in making the markup cleaner (especially if it increases the size of the page). This is a wiki, so nerd rage seems like a natural result of any work being done, but I think it's a better idea to spend time correcting and adding new content instead of bickering over the layout and markup of pages.

Question on desert heat
Does that even exist in RSC? I know waterskins exist here, but for some reason just standing in the desert (with nothing on) around Shanty Pass does not seem to do any damage (or give any message that there's a heat effect). Is it broken, or is the effect different back then? --Jlun2 (talk) 14:06, August 5, 2016 (UTC)
 * Hmm maybe not. I know that people mine in the desert camp without any sort of heat resistant supplies (other than maybe slave robes?). The members content was never as popular as it is in RS2, so there wasn't as much thought put into these things...  S (talk) 14:09, August 5, 2016 (UTC)

Forum Question for Stormy <3
Hi Stormy!

xkoax here, just wondering if there's any word on the forum?

feel free to add me on Skype (username is yeskoa)

I hope you're doing well!

Thanks, Koa. 14.202.88.37 (talk) 07:58, October 3, 2016 (UTC)
 * You can ask Sander, Heff, or jpm for more information or ask around for my email address. But the short answer is I don't know what happened and you shouldn't trust people trying to spread stuff around.  S (talk) 08:14, October 3, 2016 (UTC)

Sorry stormy - don't have their contacts :(
sorry stormy, i don't have HEFF, jpm or sander on skype.

The forum was my sole source of communication with the community, and i'm really missing it all :(

though i did remember your contributions to the rsc wiki and thankfully can reach out through this!

had to suspend my memberships til I can work out what's happening, and whether there is hope for the future.

if you can email me any info, that'd be greatly appreciated - happy to donate BTC $100 if it helps with getting forum server up and running etc.

Cheers, Koa.
