Hope everyone had a great New Year. :)
Achieved 91 Fishing! Rocktails are not as slow as people make out; I have also made around 3m already.
Actually have got quite a few total levels in the last couple of days, as I have said previously I got 67 Combat due to 72 Magic (from the circus) so I thought the next cool number is 69 and therefore I completed The Holy Grail to get 10 Defence levels and reach 69 Combat! :D
Been having a slight break from Fishing, I still need to get 70 Runecrafting to get all non-combat/slayer skills above 70 and I have been training that at ZMI. As well as this I started doing a bit of Dungeoneering with my clan mainly out of bordem! I eventually want to get this around level 80.
Exams are now getting quite close and therefore I will be greatly reducing my playing time to start doing work, also I will be returning to university soon which will reduce it even more.
Not sure what my wealth is at the moment, but I would say it may have reached around 65m had quite a good few herb runs recently and fishing has obviously been making a profit. Although I did buy 15k pure essence.
Anyways, time for bed. (finally sorted out my sleeping pattern :P )
Take care everyone.

Achieved 92 Fishing. Also managed 72 Ranged from circus, 71 Agility and 72 Smithing from strange rock collecting and 63 Slayer from penguins. Also did a bit of Brimhaven agility ticket collecting with a friend yesterday and ended up getting a level; the aura I bought: surefooted is really great for collecting tickets.
Might not be able to play as much from now on; seems I am having some serious computer issues and I have no idea how long this will go on for before I get it fixed. I can still get online; but my computer packs up after a while. Probably a sign for me to get off Runescape and do more revision. :P
Anyways, take care everyone.

The only people who say Rocktails are slow will be the odd person powerfishing for around 70k xp/hour. Most people prefer to make some decent money & be more relaxed when it comes to Fishing, & as they average 45k xp/hour they aren't that slow in Fishing standards.
Of course, since you can get 12m xp/hour on Demonic Thrones, the xp is fairly slow in comparison here.

Yeah that's true Steve, that powerfishing rubbish would make Fishing a whole lot less relaxing; so I will just stick it out at rocktails.
Yep, and it is good to back Smith. :) ____________________
First major update: 93 Fishing!
My computer issues mentioned in my last post have been solved, turned out it was just a build up of dust on my air vent/fan resulting in some overheating and consequently showing the blue screen of death and shutting off my computer.
I have already made up my mind about my future goals - as you all know I plan extremely far ahead which is a bad habit in a way because I never feel like I have achieved anything. Anyways, I have decided after two more 99s I will no longer remain a low Combat skiller and begin to level all my skills up as high as possible.
I reckon I will begin the above in the next 3 months; first I need to spend a month finishing exams and 99 Fishing. Then, hopefully, depending on how much free time I have after my exams I will attempt to get 99 Agility within a month. I will spend another month making money and achieving a few small non-skilling goals which will not involve me levelling Combat.
At this point I should be still 69 Combat, with around 2,000 total level, a decent amount of cash (minimum 200m), 10 level 99 skills and all non-combat skills over 75 (maybe over 80). Anyways, we will see.
Take care for now.

Thank you Tim! :) Yeah, but the progress is probably going to slow down now... :( ********************
I have been neglecting Fishing lately, but managed to get level 94... Still at living rock caverns, and still attempting to get this goal complete as soon as possible.
Have not stopped farming recently, been doing it whenever I can and have just hit the 16m milestone! I think I will just continue to farm whilst I am actively playing Runescape; and see how high I can take my Farming experience.
I achieved 73 Dungeoneering thanks to a friend who offered me a leech in a few dungeons; although I couldn’t sit there and watch I felt I had to do something; so I spent a lot of time gathering resources and helping out as much as I could.
I am pretty close to a few levels like Mining, Crafting, Herblore and Slayer; it is very likely I will get a level in all of these on Wednesday when I do my weeklies (already collected my strange rocks!).
Moneywise I have around 30m at the moment; after losing the rest of my money dicing (I know I know) I sold a lot of unnecessary stuff I had in my bank and bought my fury back; torstol farming and rocktail fishing have got me the rest.
My Runescape daily play time is going to drastically decrease to maybe an hour a day as I have just travelled back to university and have exams coming up. After these I will still not be on as much as I did during Christmas break because I will have studying to get on with.
Hope everyone is doing well. :)

Congrats on 94 Fishing and 16M Farming experience!
Continuing with Farming sounds like a good idea, you'll build up a nice amount of experience after a while. Farming was the only skill I kept training for a short while after 99, it's addictive. :P
Sorry to hear about the money, 30M is better than nothing though! I lost the majority of my money through dicing, so I won't judge. :P Good luck with your exams, hope to see you online every now and then.
