PK Guy

I thought you're American, Lee? Oh well, regardless, GL with your European clan..

Please give Gretar a chance to tamper with the results before making them public, thank you! (joking, of course.. :p)

Excellent guide, really well explained. Makes me want to NH more Gz on sticky !

From what Graphics has stated you were in the wrong only because you did this at ::easts , read the rules they specifically state "no ragging at easts" (some people would consider this ragging, and those "some" happen to be brids at easts). However, DH bombing has always been allowed at Edge/Varrock. But it's not unfair advantage Graphics, that implies he's doing something others can't, but they could do the same if they wanted to. And it's not farming either since he's neither gaining kills nor PKP if he would kill his own accounts (unless you know he's logging from seperate IPs on each account).

Hope you really have grown up like you say. Not nice to give someone who is known to have done DDOS attacks, access to everyones IPs. Post count is irrelevant so not sure why people are moaning about that, I can see you joined the forum since it began and you said you're lurking so that's cool, good to know you'll be cleaning up the forums. I support that. And about time flaming/bullying was put under control. Good luck to you

- I wish there was a basic editor option instead of just the WYSIWYG one that is currently in use. If you don't know what that means, it's when it automatically formats images/videos and other things such as text (font/size/color) that's pasted into the reply box. I'd prefer the raw format where I can use and see tags such as [ code ][ /code ]. I checked the profile settings but couldn't see anything, seemed very limited in options. TBH not a fan of this forum software but that doesn't matter. - Also a preview post button before submitting it just so you can see the layout properly before submitting. - Remove the "Forum Reports" sub-section because people are reporting in-game issues there, as well as in the main section (Player reports). Instead forum messages can be reported as John demonstrated above, using the "report post" link which is found at the top of the post next to the time it was done. - Don't allow users to delete their own posts, that should be a staff power only. This can be abused by people breaking the rules (offensive language, posting links to viruses, etc.) whilst there's no staff on, and then deleting it later before it can be seen by staff. Editing will still be allowed (only staff would be able to see the original post). - My final idea, which I will suggest anyway despite it most likely never being implemented is forum-server integration. All the big professional servers that I played had this system without security issues. Some even had an adventurers log uploaded on users profiles. I often see newly registered users reporting they can't login to the game after registering on here! How would it benefit this server? You could have the correct IGN automatically showing for each user of the forum, and their profile could auto-update when they log in to the game to say they're on and possibly list a "kill feed" as well as their stats pulled from the highscores (K, D, KDR, streaks).

Accepted. PM Pk Guy next time you see me on. At ::Easts though, I don't want stupid handicapped restrictions telling me which items I can and can not use. (FYI my interpretation of "hybrid" includes the use of a bow!) Just saw this as I was scrolling down the page. Brilliant! It needs more recognition

Alright I wrote out several massive paragraphs for this and then deleted it all after remembering the target audience so here goes, in a nutshell: (edit: alright looks like I done it again, but trust me was a lot more detailed before LOL!!) What I'm suggesting? Make it so there is a new command "::copy playername" which if typed copies over your targets levels, inventory items and equipped items to you (assuming you actually own them if they cannot be spawned). You will get a chatbox confirmation "You have copied playername!" and they in turn will receive a similar message, "Playername just copied your current set-up!" If you don't have an item they are carrying (in your bank or inventory) which isn't free then the command fails and you get the message telling you, "You cannot copy playername, you do not have: item name(s)!" It's very simple and handy for so many situations that I can use it, and saves time if I'm doing something different. You could argue I'm just being lazy but here's why I'm not... Why is this useful? OK there are various scenarios. I will just give a few here: -You keep beating the same guy over & over, and he argues it's because of your superior gear (and wealth). In fairness and to prove you're better, you ask him to choose his best set-up which you then copy and beat him with his own set-up! Or lose... doesn't matter, it's still fun -You do something different that isn't worth making a custom kit for because it's not something you do often. E.g. F2P Pking or Cwars. Go there, meet your mate, ::copy him. Easy. if you decide afterwards you like the kit, since you already have it on, just save it in an available slot or overwrite something. -Someone is level glitching or has a broken item equipped which makes him invisible or something. ::copy him, find out what's causing this bug, report it to staff. Final words Is it difficult to add? No! This can be one of those little 'quality of life' updates that just makes things a little bit more fun. I was messing around on my test server and actually you just start with a basic ::copy command which most servers have anyway (staff command) which copies equipped items, then you merged that with the ::checkinv command (again a common staff command) - except instead of just checking inventory it overwrites yours with theirs. Finally make you're own copy level command (easy). I can give my work to Gretar if he wishes. Obvious warning signs are to avoid dupes, make sure unspawnable items are checked and cleared from users bank before loaded. Make sure it cannot be used whilst in the wilderness (or other PvP zones). And lastly, add a privacy blocker, example a link can be added to the Quest tab which states: "Allow copycats: ON" and you can click it to toggle on/off. This way you can preserve you're secret setups and inventory layouts. Or if you're an undercover Statius user disguised with rune waiting for someone to hit you (non-skuller) you can do that without getting caught. Please post your thoughts, let me know if you support or not. If not, why? Thanks

Yeah lol... I checked on my phone and they do indeed work, must be my overly secure browser/AV that's blocking that website. Not sure why, since I have used mediafire in the past, must be a setting I changed or an extension on Chrome. I'll PM you if I can't figure it out LOL, thanks for the offer mate!

I don't have any problems, was just curious and wanted to check this out. But the links aren't working for me

Yep. I think the wilderness defence restriction should only apply near Edgeville, NOT Varrock. Makes for more variety in team Pking when you can mix up your stats and have different guys on your team who can use diff gear.

Wait: If you haven't already done so, I advise you to please log in-game, type ::poll and cast your votes before reading any replies on this thread. I'd prefer if people gave their own personal opinions before being influenced by others. Don't waste your vote on someone else, you don't need their approval. Great, now we can share our thoughts! [INB4: "naice b1ble.." If you don't like reading, then this thread isn't for you!] Poll Questions for reference: I'm not going through them all, just a couple of major ones which I would find to be 'game-breaking' for myself, and would make Roat Pkz not stand out from the crowd (i.e. similar semi-spawn based Pk servers). OK so the first question regards Barrows pieces, I know some of you have been calling for this, in particular because of Dharoks and it's set effect which is currently the highest hitting thing in game (without combo's). I completely understand this but I would say at least just put maybe the Dh Axe itself, or even the whole Dh set, but no need for the other Barrows to be unspawnable. They will be used a lot more if Dh costs PKP. And if they also get blocked, people will just resort to 3rd Age or full Dragon which is mostly known in RS for being expensive and cosmetic based rather than for practicality. Again with Bandos, I feel like there's no point to put this in Pk shop. Statius only cost 500 PKP for body & legs each and it's never used in "everyday" Pking except for risk fights so the same will happen for Bandos. People will just use Torso and D legs/3rd Age legs causing Bandos to be just useful for low level staking junk. That's how I see it anyway. If I'm taking an unspawnable item for Pk, i usually prefer it to be a weapon that I can protect, like AGS, not armour. I think Void knight gear should be in the Pk store BUT because it is untradeable anyway, it can be like the fire cape.... you just loot it back if you die. Essentially it will have a one-off cost to use, unless you don't manage to get it back, in which case too bad mate, PKP sink LOL! This can either apply to the whole shebang or just the individual helmets (melee, mage, range). People would pay for it. Chaotics have been seriously nerfed to the point that I no longer use them, the CMaul never seems to hit at all for me like it used to. But IDC because chaotic Pking actually became too easy, like shooting fish in a barrel, and some new-kids started to run or pray to avoid it. I enjoy using Tent now, it's currently my fav item for pure Pk (99% of my preferred Pk style). With this in mind I think it's finally time to close this chapter of Roat Pkz and skew off into the OSRS time line, I want a Golden Sara Sword instead! (Doesn't have to be donator only). I think donators should instead get 'soft' benefits that do not give an unfair advantage in Pking, but do provide some service to make it worthwhile donating in the first place, examples could be exclusive cosmetic items (no stats), and bonus points for CW minigame, voting, and increased chance of drops from Champ and Chaos Ele. Also, it's been mentioned before, I think customised yell tags (instead of it just saying donator/super donator) but limited to one tag per month or maybe it costs donator points or something. IDK you figure it out. That's all I want to say for now. I have a lot of stuff to commit for this topic but I don't have the time right now to put it up plus I'm kind of half expecting people to just troll and be, what I like to call, typical "Roaters." That's a new term I have coined, Hi Roater are you still reading this.... wow Gz getting this far... your Reading Level is now...2! Seriously, I want to edit this later with more cool schnizz. Thanks bye

First time I saw this it made me laugh lololol: https://i.gyazo.com/bcae4e6b34c64868e5c6a0f91f1ba761.gif Forgetting to restore your magic level: -2 points Right-click -> Walk here: -5 points Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgzFKv0ggPA

I support, this is an RSPS after all. But I know some people want this to be strictly RS items only (OSRS) so IDK. At least if the water, earth, dragon capes ever stop being donator-only items they could have their stats easily reworked to basically be slightly better than the fire cape and have this requirement of 5k, 10k, kills.

Nicely done, looks pro. Just wanted to point this out: https://i.gyazo.com/a2c0d7e28548e0187e0fd57d85dc62b2.png "just so you can't tell if it's working or not" Well we can tell mate... because you just told us! You could've kept schtum and people would've wasted their time making new accounts and voting over and over, and there would be another Roat Pkz statistic for you ('we have x million acc's!!')

Good idea, can't believe it doesn't already exist

Salaamz bro, thanks for give away thing. All the best Insha'Allah

Niice, GL getting more...

But those guys aren't wrong either. Certain restrictions have been placed at ::oldbrid and ::west and they cannot break those restrictions because it's been set to not allow you to use certain items. So why should they be stopped from doing something that has specifically been allowable to them? Reason why I commented on this thread was because I have been banned for TB'ing at ::west because people like you moan. And then got banned for it!!! Like why is that spell even available then, might aswell remove it? Anyway I complained to Gretar and he agreed I shouldn't have been banned, he asked me to post an appeal, I declined under the principle that I never broke any server rules, so he unbanned me immediately. Some people get so butthurt over a game, I firmly believe that if a function is intentionally available to players then they have every right to use it. If teleblocking was coded to be unavailable (at certain areas) and I bug abuse and do it anyway - under those circumstances a ban is worthy, but otherwise no. End of the day Pking is Pking, just because one person chooses a certain style doesn't mean the enemy fighter has to adopt the same tactic as well. He/She can use their own style.

Why didn't you eat?

Ragging is the "go-to word" for people who can't compete.. Obviously you're hybridding... TB to Dh is literally the definition of hybrid (mixing 2 styles, magic + melee), in a brid zone, I don't see how this is even an issue worthy of complaint. He could just ice barrage you and stop you from melee then run up and spec and move back, but instead he chose to hemorrhage on the forums.

You're mistaken I'm not crying... I'm laughing at your stupidity! I believe it's referred to as "RNG", in which case yes it is normal. Tent CAN hit 46, DDS CAN hit 40-36, there is absolutely nothing unnatural about this scenario. You're posting this vid like it was a glitch or at least something spectacular. It's not. This happens all the time. Where you a tad unlucky? I suppose so, but eventually you'll do the same to someone else, this game is a mixture of skill + luck, but that luck element plays a huge part and is completely beyond our control. If you haven't figured this out yet then you're playing the wrong game mate, and I don't mean Roat Pkz specifically, I mean RS/RSPS as a whole. tl;dr. DW it's just more boring garbage

How can you call them cancer hits? DDS is capable to do that kind of damage, this is nothing new. Same goes for all you kids getting shocked by high AGS hits (even on tank) - Yeh that's what it was made for. Idiots everywhere
