The best solution to it all; more bank space. New skill and many new quests, how are we going to store all this new cool stuff Jagex????

Organize your bank with the tabs though it helps a bunch. You can find random stuff you don't need or like me realize you don't have random junk and simply need more bank space!
I think tip 13 is a fail, but the tip about making armor into sets actually might help. I have an abundance of all weapons and armor from Pking and Slayer. I simply don't want to sell them all because I honestly would have more money than I'd know what to do with. ( Also I enjoy showing off my collection to friends as I obtain more and more. ;) )

Interesting tips! My main way of organizing my bank and getting rid of useless items is by going through my bank, looking at every item, and asking myself, "Do I really need this for anything?" If not, I drop/sell it. :P

The recent update got me posting and thinking about bank space, so in the end I started thinking about writing a guide like this; good thing I searched first cause yours is excellent. You also had more knowledge than me about older discontinued stuff. If I would've written one people would be flaming me for costing them a cracker or a party hat...
If I may suggest (I hope not to offend):
Post 1 "blatently" should be "blatantly"
Post 2 68 should now be 78 due to new update
Post 4 keyrings: don't remember which but some keys actually do have to come off the ring to use them (unless they've fixed them), but it's still the right place to store them...
Post 5 "you've took" should be "you've taken"
Post 6 "buy orders" should be "sell orders"
Sorry to nitpick, I just know I'd want to be as accurate and correct as possible. Also stylistically it would be best to group suggestions into f2p, p2p and both to avoid the "this tip is aimed at..." preface everytime, but that may be quite a pain now. Perhaps shorten the preface to "members," "non-members" or "all players"
As to substantive suggestions I can't add much:
Try not to convert tradable stuff to untradable when possible since it prevents you from disposing of it later. I still can't bring myself to drop all the curry and orange tree seedlings I made ages ago even though my farming level keeps me from wasting time planting them.
And as others have said, organization is big. I don't make much use of tabs; most of my bank is one long string of groups of stuff in no particular order. I sort mostly by skill: herbs, potions and herb seeds together, jewelry together, weapons and armour divided into styles together etc. Have at least 2 of everything that you can so order is maintained. When you get short on space go through gathering partial charges and combining them. Use the NPCs in the GE to combine potions and jewelry.
Out of room but that's about it anyway.
Thanks again, very nice guide...

Thanks for your feedback. :)
I have made corrections to the areas you mentioned and added your tip to the front page.
"Page 3; Post 7 - Avoid converting tradable items into untradable items, unless you intend to use them. Examples include tree saplings and the Amulet of Nature (pre-nature amulet is tradable)."
Since you pointed the recent update out, I've also added a 15th tip to the main list.
"15. *-**** Registration
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
(All Players)
The censor caught me out here, but you can most likely tell what it says. If you register your *-**** address with Jagex, you will be rewarded with 10 extra bank slots regardless of whether you are a member or not. It's definitely worth doing."
To be honest, I've only used the dusty key and brass key when testing, and they worked fine. I think I used the battered key without taking it off, when Elemental Workshop III came out too. The enchanted key from the Meeting History quest has several uses, so that could be one of them which should be taken off the ring.

Thanks for the honor of contributing....
Hmm, that censor thing was bugging me too. I noticed the gold mod seems to be able to say whatever HE wants.
Let me try a few things...
*-****
*****
* mail
**mail
Anyway... thanks a lot.
Edit: Geez, what is the point of bleeping that anyway, and I saw some regular posters figured out ways to get around it...
BTW, the reverse of the tradable/untradable thing works too.... Once you have one each of the God bird pets, all your red/blue/green eggs can be converted by a summoning creature into tradable eggs, hence getting rid of those slots, if needed.
