Hermi I hear you on that. I just finished the Gertrude's Cat quest and am really trying to move up the fishing levels. I don't like that the bait shop is only on a couple of towns. I seems to be trudging back and forth and i never like that in these kinds of games.

I am storing a set of essentials at the bank, so when I die, I can start again without much fuss.

Well, I finally made it through the tutorial. Now I am in some village that I don't remember the name of, and picking up bones that I see around. Not sure what I am going to do next. ehehe I think I remember something about the bones being good for something, don't remember what or why on that either.

Nightcrawler, I am Wanderingjoy.

Hey Treasure. You could start with the Cook's Assistant quest to get you familiarized to the area. You should be in Lumbridge. Make sure you talk to all the tutors (the question marks on the little map.)

Go see the cook in the castle and he'll tell you what he needs.

I am all over the place in the game. My main goal at this time is to get across those mountains to the west so I can get to the fishing village of Catherby. It is really not easy. White wolves will kill you dead first. You can take the dwarve's passage under the mountains, but that's another quest...and you need to be on the other side to fufill it!

I have become a pretty good ranger, and loved the crossbow when I finally tried it out. I am making my own arrows and crossbow bolts. I got pretty cocky and tried to take on a dark wizard, and unfortunately got killed and there went my crossbow. But I'm back and trying to get enough skill points to get across the mountains. All this for a large fishing net.

My attack level is 15, not sure how you figure out the overall levels.

Nightcrawler I am at 274; I am guessing that when they show other players levels that they round the number to 27 or 28?

I am a smith now and a fletcher, I can make iron daggers. I spent most of yesterday mining, smithing and killing the bears in the southeast of Varrock. Then I killed a lot of muggers over by the mine on the other side, because I needed a lot of hit points to advance to a level 28 ranger. Then when I got to that level, I realized that I still can't use the silver bolts I picked up because my crossbow can't handle it. Turns out there are higher level crossbows that I can either make or visit a dwarf. It's a whole other thing that may take a while to accomplish.

Today my goals are to complete the Ernest the Chicken quest...I've been back in the Draynor Manor a few times and need to get that done. I am up to fishing trout, so will continue trying to get to Catherby. I also need to get some new clothes because my outfit is pretty dorky. Other players keep yelling out "noob!" to me. Some frog gave me a pass to a clothing shop so I'll go there too.

Thanks Nightcrawler! This game is perfect.

Ok, I have tried to add you folks to my friends list. I can't seem to do that. I tried to add you, Nigtcrawler, the other night and again tonight. I also tried to add Nyheat and Hermoine tonight. But nothing shows up on my friends list.

Then there is the thing about getting eggs from a chicken. I tried to milk a cow before I talked to the milkmaid. As soon as I clicked on the cow, I started to attack it. ehehe So, I am a bit hesitant to click on a chicken. I may end up with fricasseed chicken instead of eggs. LOL

If you go across the river from Lumbridge the eggs are dropped on the ground of the chicken coop. Just sort of wait for one to show up. There's going to be a lot of carnage anyway, sort of alarming really. But then you can cook the raw chicken later. The feathers come in handy too for making arrows or fishing if you want to cultivate those skills. Now I can catch salmon which sells well at market and is good for replacing hitpoints.

Still trying to get to Catherby. I know, doing it the hard way when Nightcrawler offered to help with a shortcut. I'll just keep killing things and gaining levels until I can face the wolves.

I just finished the Ernest the Chicken quest. Didn't care for that one and had to try three times to get it done!

I will look into the add-friend list thing tomorrow.

Hi there! Treasure and Nyheat, I've added both of you, actually, so it is working. Be sure you are looking for our Runescape names and not our TVCH names. I'm Lunaflower69. I tend to hang out in the same world as Nightcrawler and a friend of his. They've been great. Nightcrawler's friend even gave me a sapphire necklace and ring. I feel very posh!

I haven't done many quests. I'm easily distracted. I will head off somewhere and then end up doing something else! I've done Gertrude's quest and gotten my cat, and I've done the cook's quest, the Romeo and Juliet quest (what a pain!), and Doric the Dwarf's mining quest.

I've been mining and fletching a lot, trying to up my levels. I want to make iron bolts for my iron crossbow, but you have to have an insane fletching level to do that!

I'm so hooked. Mario and Zelda are losing me fast!

Do I have to be in the same world as you to make your name show up on my list? Or do I have to be a certain level before I can add you?

I don't think so. You should be able to just add me. You're showing up in my list. Nightcrawler and Snowman also added me when I was completely new and not a member and I could see them in my list, too.

Runescape is blocked from work (the nerve!) so I will look for you this evening and see if you are online. If you are, I will message you. When you get a private message, it comes up in the dialogue box as purple to set it apart from the regular dialogues taking place between characters.

Maybe I am doing it wrong. I click on the yellow smiley face to open my list. A box shows up to let me enter a name. I type in your name. I click add. But nothing shows up in my friends list box. your name does disappear from the box on the left.

A word of caution to any parents whose children play - there are a lot of elementary age children playing Runescape and I've had several strike up conversations with me simply because my character and their character were in the same place at the same time. These kids who have talked to me have been wide open and it alarmed me because it made me realize how easily a predator could take advantage of them. You tend to think your children are safer in a game like this than a chatroom, but if I had kids playing this, I would insist on knowing all their friends and not letting them give out any personal information. It kind of freaked me how forthcoming they were with their information.

Scary isn't it? Some of those kids will give up anything without any prompting at all. Caleb had one kid telling him where he went to school.

Darren is the one who plays this with Caleb so I don't know a whole lot about it. Can they chat with anyone if they aren't on their buddy list or just those on the buddy list? Caleb's buddy list is dad and his school friends and the school friends parents know Darren often plays at the same time Caleb's playing.

They also play Guild Wars together (sorta similar game though you have to buy the discs and expansions and all) but the parental controls are pretty nifty on that. We can set it up so he only chats with people on his lists (school friends, Darren, and a few of Darren's real life friends,) with no one, or with anyone. When dad's with him he can chat with his guild and friends, when dad's not, just with those on his buddy list. They've played long enough for the rest of the guild not on Caleb's buddy list to know that if Dad's not online, his chat features are turned off.

Like so much else with kids it's hard. You want them to know of the dangers but don't want to freak them out. Hehe, and it doesn't make it any easier when mom belogns to TVCH and occassionally goes off (and often drags the kidlets along) to meet the ax murderers!

Ya know, when I sign on to this game, I am so busy trying to figure out where to go and what to do, I don't even read the chat that is going on. Someone may have been talking to me and I never knew it. ehehe

Wargod that is so funny about you, your kids and the ax murderers. LOL

Gee, now I have another problem. Hermoine, saw, a little late, that you had found me and tried to talk to me. But I didn't know how to answer you. I clicked on chat but that didn't seem to be the way to answer you in that left box where everyone is talking.

I thought maybe you could add me to your friends that way. If you click on my name, you should get an "Add friend" option.

Then, once I'm in your friend list, you click on my name in the friend list and select message and then it goes just to me.

I'll be online another hour or so, but then I need to go to bed early as I am fighting a bad cold.

Thank you Hermione. When you said "Hi, again" I clicked on your name. That did allow me to put you on my friends list. Then I clicked on your name in my friends list and was able to type a message to you. But then the box that I entered the message in wouldn't go away, so I couldn't see if you got my message and answered or not. The only way to lose that box, whether it is to type a friends name or to type a message, is to leave the game and come back to the game. There must be something wrong with my system. Maybe because I am on dial-up or don't have enough power or something.

Well, I am going to stop for the night on the game anyway. But now at least I have you on my friends list.

Hi Hermi...thanks for letting us know you're out there! It's so addictive this game. I have talked to a few people briefly. In Ernest the Chicken quest, someone helped me get out of the house and now I've helped a few too. I've also had a couple wierdos stalk me which is freaky. One person wanted to help me and got mad when I didn't trade fast enough and left. mostly people juse shout out "hey noob!! stupid noob. Your armor sucks." The only inappropriate chat so far is someone saying "poopy stink butt" but whatever.

I sort of like skulking around alone in the game, but if you need anything, PMs are welcome! I've been hanging around Falador a lot and killing the guards and whatnot. I finally started using those prayer points but they run out fast.

ETA Treasure you will know you are chatting when the text is red, not blue. You have to click around a bit to bring up the red text.

Hermi, let me know when you advance to getting a better crossbow. I've gotten to the level that I can use iron bolts, but the crossbow is not good enough. Turns out I have to get a better one from a dwarf or make it myself.

I think it is so cool that u all are in to the game this much

to wargods ?

yes anyone in the game can talk to u
if u are near any other player all they have to do is type something in hit enter and it will apear above there head for u to see
thats how u talk to other people that are not on your list

and

any player in the game that is clouse to your player can move there mouse over your players head and see your online game name and the lv of your player
and then add it to there friends list and then
talk to u on your friend list but

u have to put there name in your list to talk back in the friends list.

Treasure, nyheat,Hermione69
under your player screen u will see things u can click on like
all game,private,clan,trade,assist
if you click on ALL it will seperate game chat and put friends list chat above that
it makes it much easyer to read your friends list chat.

Treasure
and it might help out your friends list.
I know it helped me out
and I also have dile up (and I hate it)
do u get kicked out of the game from time to time. I do.

u can click on any of them and u will see only what u clicked on

I keep mine on ALL
but thats just me
