Support!

Also i have information on different commands that close/ mess with the gameplay of the browser your using, that isnt in your guides yet.

pressing ctrl+w exits out of whatever u have open so ya same thing as ctrl+f4


this only works on some computers, so its less likely to be used and be succesful:

ctrl+alt+ any arrow key. what it does is changes the screen/flips it, for example,

ctrl+alt+down arrow key turns the screen upside down, ctrl+alt+left/right arrow key flips it left if u did left arrow key, right for right arrow key if this happens (put this in your guide) press ctrl+alt+up arrow key, this sets the screen at normal, so its not upside down and things.
your welcome! :)

I was watching a few videos about honest Hot/cold x2 guy and thought I'd give it a shot! I saw a level 138 with full bandos and asked to see that he could double the 50 mil had I won, he showed me 600 mil and I imagine he had made a lot of money hosting. Needless to say, my flowers showed up, I had won yet he had logged off. I didn't really mind because I begin my phase 1 training for the army on Monday so I will have very little time to play anyway. But if I wasn't joining the army. Through this transaction (I am fully aware my stupidity was nearly entirely the reason I lost this money) it would have changed my view on how to get money. I almost certainly would have either scammed to get my money back or botted. It's a dangerous game which I imagine is causing a lot of people to quit or scam others.

recently ive seen one type of scam where a pair of players will use the free for all (dangerous) portal in gamers grotto to kill you for your items suddenly..

scammer1 asks you if you want a high amount of gold and will show you the high amount of gold to prove they have it.
scammer2 pretends to be a random passer who recognises the scammer and tells the victim that they can easily trick the scammer with telegrabbing the money from the safety of the barrier
scammer2 will delete and put you on ignore and seemingly log out but will actually go to a different world where this scam will take place
scammer1 will take you to the free for all dangerous portal in the world with scammer2 where they will drop the gold in a place where you need to enter the barrier to telegrab the gold..
scammer2 will barrage you upon sight and d claw special you to swiftly kill the unsuspecting victim before they have time to react leaving them with nothing.

the key parts of this scam are: scammer1 needs to have the high amount of gold to prove they have it, scammer2 will need to convince the victim and then go to a different world unnoticed, scammer1 needs to put the gold in the specific spot that will require victim to enter the area, scammer2 needs to be a high level to deal a lot of damage very quickly.

the scammers who tried this on me made one mistake.. the 2nd scammer failed to be unnoticed in the relog to the other world so i knew they were working together.

always remember: if it seems too good to be true it probably is.
