When I logged on, I was on my way to Taverly when I noticed a guy trying to finish the quest "Witch's House". He was in the shed battling the monster. He was nearly dead, so I told him to get out of there, which he wisely did. He was new to member's, so he wasn't a very high level. (Witch's House was the first member's quest I ever did). I told him to stay there and I ran to Falador, grabbed some monkfish and cheese for re-entry and ran back. The guy was pretty happy . He ran back to the shed and finished off the quest. He then added me and told me that he might ask me to help him every now and then. No problem.
Which reminds me: I've played this game for a long time, so if you guys have any questions, feel free to PM me in game (Private is ALWAYS on).
After that, I went to the Grand Exchange and picked up some supplies for slaying Black Dragons. I range them, so I bought some Adamant Bolts. Now the problem that had previously plagueing me was that I ran out of inventory space before I was ready to leave. And I'm not leaving any of those Dragon Bones behind! So I decided to try out the Spirit Terrorbird for the first time. I went to the Black Dragons in Taverly for the millionth time, and began the slaying. My Ranged level is only 64, so I have to use Ranged potions to help me out.
So anyways, I filled up my inventory and used the BOB (not the rapper obviously). It was pretty cool! I think I might use that thing more often from now on!
So I had forgotten a teleport, and had to run all the way back to Falador Quite the distance. I banked, ran all the way back to the dragons, and began slaying again. But there was a new person there. He showed me that Broad Bolts are better to use. I was skeptical at first, but he traded me one, and he was right. They had the same stats, and Broad Bolts were cheaper! Thanks to him, I'll save like 90k every time I buy 1k of bolts!
Besides this stuff, not much happened today
Good night everyone!

When I logged on today, I was at Black Dragons. I started killing them, when my friend whom I've mentioned before, Assai, invited me to go to his new POH. I was a little reluctant, I'll admit it. I had just started owning up those dragons, and I didn't really want to leave. But he persuaded me enough, and I eventually went. He had a mansion compared to my house. We went into his dungeon where he, his friend and I started to fight each other.
Here's where the weirdness begins. Assai is level 98 I think, and his friend (can't remember his name), was level 118. They jumped on me and I thought I was dead. So Assai does a Korasi Special and hits around 150. Not that bad. But then his friend uses an Armadyl Godsword Special on me. He hit 480. Now I was a little scared. But then some weird stuff happened. I was attacking Assai, and I just kept hitting him, never missing... And both of them kept missing me. I killed Assai, and now it was only his friend left.
I hit a 40, he would miss, I would hit a 100, he would miss. It went on like this, me hitting him often and him hitting me occasionally. Eventually, he outlasted me. But he only had 46 Lifepoints left.
We did that for a while, and then I left. I went back to Black Dragons, hopped worlds due to the random mean people that seem to inhabit those parts, until I found a decent world. I killed the dragons for some time, and got a few rare drops. Notable ones include a Tooth Half of Key and a Loop Half of Key.
Also, I gained another Ranged level! 65 now...
Well that's all I really have to report today. I got about 8 Black Dragons to go. Good night everyone.
Oh, by the way, I probably won't play a lot tomorrow as I have to work for 8 hours
Good night!
And PM me if you have any questions or want advice.

Hey guys, sorry I didn't update yesterday. I had a lot of stuff in real life to do, and I didn't get a chance to play. Today is different though. I finished off my Black Dragon task.
I went to Duradel hoping against hope I wouldn't get another dragon assigned. Considering all my other experiences with Duradel, what do you think I got? That's right. MORE DRAGONS. I couldn't believe it. This has got to be some sort of record. I got 57 Iron Dragons...
So Assai PMed me, and wanted to lend to me his Brackish Blade. Got it, and headed to the dragons. Then I noticed I forgot my Super Attack Potions. Oh well. I tried out the Brackish Blade. It was pretty good, even without boosts. I was in the middle of killing them when Assai PMed me asking how I thought the sword was. I said I liked it. Then he said that he wanted me to keep it.
We had quite the argument over this. I didn't want him to give it to me... He had spent 1.5m on it. And he was poor. After discussing it, I eventually said he could give it to me. But I have been planning on buying him a present for some time. I'm not sure what to get though. At first I thought of a Bandos Godsword, but then he got a Korasi and he said he never wanted another weapon. So then I thought of getting him a Dragon Platebody. But then he got Full Void. So what now? He has high magic level, so maybe something to do with Magic.
Well I thought of what to give him. At first I bought a pair of Dragon Boots, but then I remembered that he only had 45 Defence... So then I bought 100 Saradomin Brews. I already had a torstol seed in the bank, so I gave him that too.
I went back to Iron Dragons, (This time with Super Attack Potions). I began killing them, and after a while, I got a really good drop. No, not a Visage or anything, but good nonetheless. I killed a dragon, and noticed something different on its drop pile. It was a pair of Dragon Platelegs! I'm running out of writing room now, so I'll just say I was very excited!

So today I logged on and I was at the Grand Exchange, all ready to go and kill the last of the Iron Dragons. I was about to leave when I saw a player yelling. She was asking people if they knew how to get Polished Buttons. I knew this was required for the quest Animal Magnetism. I decided to help her out. I guided her to the H.A.M. Headquarters, and after some pickpocketing, she finally got one. Then she asked me if I knew how to get Ectotokens. Man, I remember having to do that... That was horrible. Anyways, I agreed to help her with that, and since she didn't have an ectophial, we ran from Lumbridge to the Ectofuntus. She had 20 bones in her inventory, and I had pots and buckets in mine. Together, we did all the steps, and she got her Ectotokens. Her name was Anukis Fairy.
I also got PMed by GummyBonanza. He told me that he liked reading my posts, and that he was sorry about all the dragons. Stupid things... Anyways, I gave him some advice for Hunter, and I went on my way.
I then got a PM from Labas Utak, the player I met destroying the Black Dragons. He told me he had gotten two Draconic Visages on his last few tasks! What a lucky guy...
I just finished my Iron Dragon task. Notable drops include an uncut emerald and a tooth half of a key. Off to Duradel I go for more dragons! Well actually, I didn't get dragons for a task! I got 130 Waterfiends. Apparently I'm not strong enough to kill these, so I cancelled that and got my next task. 165 Black Demons. I went to the Taverly ones, and on my way, I noticed a lot of players using the shortcuts. Well I'm only 52 Agility, so I can't use them.
So after a few kills, I suddenly grew tired of Slayer (I don't stay with one skill for long). I geared up for some Agility. I went to my old nemesis: The Brimhaven Agility Arena. I hate that place so much... I always fail the traps! But I bucked up, and I got 73 tickets before I logged off.

While I was there, there was this guy who kept asking me for food. I gave him four monkfish the first time, then another four monkfish the second time. When he asked for the third time, I didn't even answer. He had cleaned my inventory!
I ran back to the Karamja Volcano bank, but as I was about to enter the cave, I noticed a player training on the bats. He was level 73 I think. Remember those Dragon Boots I was planning to give to Assai before I remembered he only had 45 Defence? Well I had decided that I was going to give them to a random player that had low levels. This player seemed to fit the criteria. I banked, got food and got the Dragon Boots. I exited the cave and asked him what his Defence level was. He answered he had 59. Rats! Oh well. This was the player I was going to give the Dragon Boots to. I told him I had a present for him, and he responded with a suspicious "Ok....?". He finished off killing his bat then came and traded with me. As soon as I gave him the Dragon Boots, he quickly responded with a "Thx! Your awesome". I told him it was no problem.
I love to help people... Feels so good! You guys should try it too. It really makes the game such a better place.
Good night guys.

I didn't get much of a chance to play today. However, I did manage to finish accumulating 100 Agility Arena Tickets and then swapped those for 28k experience. That got me all the way to level 54!

For the mean time, good night.

I logged on and my clan was playing a game of "Hide and Seek". The object of this was a player would hide somewhere, and give us a few hints. The first one to find the player gets the reward. I happen to win the first game. The player was hiding in the gold rocks in Brimhaven.
Well after that, I decided that I was going to train Agility a bit more. Due to everyone telling me how great the Wilderness Course is, I gave it a go. Wow. It was so much better than Brimhaven! You get 500xp per lap. I was there for a few hours, and I went from 54-58! Then a fellow clanmate trained with me. His name was Omgoshranged. I ran out of food after that, and so I ran to the teleport lever and teleported to Ardougne.
Meanwhile, another clanmate was PKing in the Wilderness. His name is Fohx, (Might have heard of him for Fishing), and he is crazy at PKing. So I switched to his world, and went to Edgeville. I ran in a bit, and decided that I wanted a weapon.
I ran back to the bank and grabbed a single Dragon Dagger. I ran back to the Wilderness, and that's when the fun started. I began picking up people's leftovers. You know, drops on the ground from loots. I slowly began accumulating items. I picked up a ton of Sharks and Rocktail, and I also started to pick up some Leather Armour. I equipped this, and also drank some Super Attack and Super Strength Potions I found. I also picked up some Rune Arrows, Dragon Darts and Dragon Arrows. Some people attacked me, probably because of the extreme welfare stuff I was wearing .
Anyways, I admitted defeat. A random guy came out of nowhere and did an Armadyl Godsword Special on me. He hit around 200. I was a little confused as I couldn't find the assailant on my screen. Eventually I found him. I clicked to do a special, which unfortunately, I missed. I killed me... And I spawned in Lumbridge.
I kept my Dragon Dagger and two Dragon Arrows. Ever heard of someone dying and then spawning with more than they had in the first place?

Anyways, today the Agility continued. I went back to the Wilderness Course, and was halfway through the first lap when I noticed a level 101 player with a Dragon Dagger P++. I was a little scared; I had no weapons, no armour. I said a friendly hello, and he didn't respond. I was a little nervous, so I logged off. The next world I logged onto, this level 26 Player was there. I said hello, and he replied with a friendly "Hi!". We did a few laps together, when all of a sudden...
A level 119 player logged onto our world, right next to me. He was weilding a Korasi, and he meant business. He did a Korasi Special Attack, and hit about a 200. I went through one of the obstacles, hoping that it would save me. He simply ran around it though, and hit me with a 100. I went through another obstacle, and immediately entered the animation of hopping over stones over a boiling pool of lava. The PKer ran to the other side, waiting for me. I had my cursor ready on "Exit to Lobby" though. The instant my character's feet hit the ground, I logged off. Pretty close.
I was a little scared when I switched worlds though. I have Private on all the time, and I was afraid that he would add me, see what world I was on, and then come after me. But that didn't happen. Instead, I continued to train, and achieved level 60 Agility! I ran back to the lever... and ran into a giant clan! No one payed any attention to me, except for one player with a Dragon Dagger P++. He chased me, but soon gave up.
I think that it is now time to do the quest "One Small Favour". I need to finish the quest "Swan Song", and this is the only requirement I don't have. I'm part way through the quest, and something has happened. I'm actually enjoying myself! Usually I hate quests, but this one is actually kind of fun! Well I'm done for today; I'll finish the quest tomorrow.
Good night!

So today, I finished "One Small Favour". And oddly enough, I think it's the only quest I actually enjoyed. I liked how it made checkpoints just the right distance away so that I thought to myself "Oh, it's not worth teleporting.". When I think about it, I ran all the way from Port Sarim to the Feldip Hills and back! It took a while, but I enjoyed myself. That doesn't mean that I would do it again of course... One of the rewards you get from the quest is two experience lamps that give 10k xp each. I used both of them on Farming, my least favourite skill. I went from level 32 all the way to level 40!
So as I was sitting on the Shilo Village bank wondering what to do, a player asked me if I was maxed assist. I of course said no (I almost never get to assist Fletching). The player's name was Red Crayons. Neat name, huh? Anyways, I got 25k xp from that. That should help me gain some ranks! For now, I think I might take Agile Ghost's advice and do some Fishing.
I went to the Grand Exchange, bought a Fly Fishing Rod and 5k feathers, and went back to Shilo Village. So far, I achieved level 65 Fishing. Hopefully I'll get to 70 so I can start some Monkfish!
Assai PMed me and said he was PKing. I certainly wanted in on that! Well just to watch I'm not much of a PKer. We ran around trying to find him a fight. Around ten minutes later, Assai was randomly attacked by a guy and died in under five seconds. Luckily, he wasn't skulled.
After that, I was quite bored. I didn't know what to do! I thought about maybe trying out Barrows for the first time. I asked Assai if he would teach me how, and I got all the equipment. Then I found out I had to finish the quest "In Search of the Myreque". I just started it, and got to the part where I need to give this guy a bunch of steel weapons. But I forgot to bring two steel swords! So I had to teleport all the way to Varrock, and then run all the way again...

So I finished the quest, and started doing Barrows for the first time with Assai. The barrows brothers were harder to kill than I thought! I killed the first few, and then entered the main crypt. In there, I killed Ahrim and Guthan. And then I ran around trying to find the chest. Only I couldn't find it! I searched for a long time, and eventually my food ran out, and I gave up. I'll come back some other time to reclaim my treasure.
So then I decided to do some Hunter. I got my box traps all ready to go, and headed off to the Feldip Hills. Unfortunately, there were some people there. So I switched worlds, and there were people there too. And the next world, and the one after that. This was getting a little frustrating. Finally, I came into a world where there was only one persoon there. I said "Hello!" and he didn't respond. I traded and requested assistance from him. No response. Great. A bot. Oh well. I began training Hunter. Eventually, I got level 69! I said this out loud, and the player who I thought was a bot said "Gratz!". Hm. Guess he wasn't a bot after all. Good thing I didn't report him!
So after that, I was a little tired of Hunter. I was eyeing the quest "Clock Tower". I have my quests organized by difficulty, and "Clock Tower" was the only quest written in red in the initial set of quests that you see when you click the Quests tab. So I decided to finish it. It wasn't even that hard. It took me maybe 15 minutes to complete, maybe less.
And what do I get as a reward? 500gp! Oh well. It was the one Quest Point that I really wanted. Because now I have 160 Quest Points!
Good night guys!
