Well done on completing Gertrude's cat! Remember to take good care of your cat! You'll thank me later when you are doing Ratcatchers and Evil Dave part of RFD. Cheers!

Haha, I was surprised to find out you had 99 farming in old school, how did you train it if not via vinesweeper? > )

I did herbs and fruit trees. I got it before G.E. and getting the seeds was not easy, but on the other hand you could pay less for them and ask the sellers to come to you (unless they were selling in bulk, which was a very good thing as well). It was mostly papayas and calquats, and herbs were torstols/dwarf weed. I studied the farming mechanics and it was very interesting to learn how farming works (for example, now that we changed back to normal time from daylight saving time, it has an effect on crops! And Gnome Stronghold patch allowed you to grow a tree in half time if you logged out and in at specific times!).


I was in top 100 of farming hiscores at one point. But they added G.E. and kept making new bosses, which of course had to drop something, and usually they put seeds in the drop tables. This all devalued 99 farming a lot. But I think you already know my stance on updates on Old School.

Cheerio, not letting it get overgrown yet! > )

And yeah, I figured it'd be those training methods. Fruit trees are so cheap that it's not a problem, but herbs idk if I can ever bring myself to do those for some reason.

Nice! I haven't really talked about OSRS much before this for a long time, so either I've forgotten what your take on it is or there's also a chance you never told me! > )

Decided to do the remaining cat quests (well there's still Evil Dave RfD but that can wait) today because I wanted to complete Varrock medium tasks for easier GE access, which pretty much forced me to sell my cat to Ardougne citizen to get a new kitten from Gertrude.

1000 total milestone is fast approaching! > )

All skills are now level 25 or higher, so the 1-24 category has been removed! > )

Also while doing favor for Tai Bwo Wannai to start My Arm's quest, I happened to find the 1m gp gout tuber. Cheerio for the RNG, saves me lots of money to complete Karamja tasks later!

How sad! :(

How could you! You greedy monster too lazy to walk to use the lazy G.E.!

You're welcome! 8) Mosquito proboscis used to be good as well but seems like not anymore. Also I used to buy raw karambwans from Tai Bwo Wannai store and sell way overpriced to questers who burned their karambwan during the quest and didn't have the fishing level to get more 8)

Very good progress with the quests, and looks like you will not be the noober of us for much longer! Cheers!

Don't worry, I picked the same color cat as the one I sold, so technically we can pretend as if nothing happened, right? > ) (Although it turned into a hellcat later on.)

Yeah, I still saw some players hopping worlds buying karambwans to sell further. Got to see it plenty when those voodoo-something victims kept popping out of jungles and forced me to chop far away from the prayer statue.
