Thanks, Cosmic! All your support guys means a lot to me :)

Yea, Mrs, thread requires a bump or two a day, in order to avoid the journey to the undiscovered lands of 51st page. Anyway, as for the Post 8, trying to update it as regularly as possible :) Moving towards my goals slowly, step by step. Can't wait to finally acquire the access to HLF.

Cheers!

I have always been jealous of those who have an access to the High Level Forums as I suspect that there might be some interesting discussions going on.

A word of advice, if I may:

Don't focus so much on HLF access being the main reward for all your hard work maxing your account.

The HLF seems so mysterious before you gain access, and many people like myself envision the HLF to be an elite club - a place of privilege where the most elite players in RuneScape gather, a place full of intellectually stimulating discussions, of quality threads, conversations, and debates offered up by the top players in the game, and an atmosphere with a heavier presence of J-Mods, where your high-level status opens up new channels of communication between yourself and Jagex for feedback, suggestions, and reveals for future updates.

However, if you anticipate the HLF to be like this you will be hugely disappointed, as I was when I gained access to the HLF last year.

The good news is that since being hired by Jagex, Mod Lee has made it his personal mission to clean up & reform the atmosphere of the High Level Forums with a "strike system" so that it is more welcoming to newcomers and more appealing in general to serious posters.

It is steadily improving which is a good thing, but I would just suggest lowering your expectations a little bit to avoid the disappointment that myself, and many others, have felt after gaining access to the High Level Forums.

With that said, I wanted to say you've got a really great thread here with lots of details, and it looks like you've made great progress already. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it so I wanted to wish you good luck! Keep your eye on the prize and you will reach your goal sooner than you expect!

Keep up the hard work, and I have no doubt that I will be seeing you in the HLF sometime in the near future ;)

Thank you, Jimla, for a very nice post!

Thank you for the tips about HLF as being a priority goal, I am aware that having too high expectations for something might result in a negative outcome, as the over-valuation of the outcome usually leads to disappointment. Unfortunately, happened to have that experience in life in various fields, however, undervaluing something might have an opposite effect, therefore, I am trying to do my best to find an equilibrium point for my expectations :) As for now, I see HLF as a mysterious place to discover and an ability to contribute to HLF community (as in evaluating the current situation as well as considering the possible improvements to the HLF community, as well as, the general community) seems to be a SMART - specific, measurable, achievable and, more or less, time-bound - goal to achieve and it is the one of the forces which "drive" me.

The reason I posted this thread nearly in the end of my journey to there (yes, even though, there's about 100m xp/10 more skills to go (and I am pretty sure that Inventor skill will be released at very end)), is that I did not consider my level ups as a big achievement. "-Oh, 99 <something>, another level up". However, thought that sharing my views and ideas on how to train skills in positive-manner would be a good thing to do, also, felt like having some entry of who am I would be nice as I feel that I owe the great players I have met - to say thanks and to contribute more to the community myself :) . Also, great to see newcomers who contribute to the community as a result of taking a right direction in the first place. As, once, one of my good friends said - I know that it won't be everyone who will benefit from me, but if 5% takes something from me and gives back their knowledge/experience to someone else - that will be a huge reward for me.

Looking forward to meeting you sometime in game :)

Thanks again, really means a lot!
Cheers!

Hey Star SAN! :) Your title has been changed on request, however it was 1 character too long! :(

I've removed the space between the colon and the 'H'. If you wish for it to be changed to something different (30 character limit), just head on back to Forum Help. :)

Thanks!
