This is my second dragon drop now, the first was a shield left half (also from an iron dragon). At this point I'm hoping against hope that my luck will improve a bit and I'll finally get some platelegs. Skirts are great and all, and they may even be a fifth of the price of legs, but I don't like the way skirts look on me. Yes, I did try it on and it is UGLY! I need armor that covers up my ugly virtual manly legs! I figure I'll make a couple more trips before my membership runs out, and if I get the platelegs, great. If not, I'll probably end up just selling the skirt anyway and sticking with good old rune armor for now.
I also got a prayer level (screenshot coming up), and today a clue scroll from a steel dragon which wouldn't leave me alone. Now, you'd think a clue from a steel dragon would have a pretty good reward, right? Here's what I got:
I mean, come on! Maybe it's not super-lousy, but I would expect at least a trimmed skirt or helmet, or even just a couple of firelighters. The value of this reward reward just about covered the teleports and food I used to get it... and I swear, I must have sold ten sets of rune platelegs in the last month from clue scrolls. Anyway, here's my prayer level-up too:
Now, finally, for the grammatical aspect to this post. It drives me up the wall when people say "buy this" or "sell that" constantly in a marketplace. They don't realize that what they're using is actually the imperative tense; in plain English, they're giving commands. I'm pretty sure they don't mean to tell everyone around them to buy obsidian capes or whatever, but that's essentially what they're doing. Laziness has them omitting those three letters at the end that make it a gerund: an adjective describing themselves, meaning that they are buying an obsidian cape instead of telling everyone else to do so.
Just a little while ago, I hopped worlds a few times to find someone willing to help me get into the duel arena for that pathetic clue scroll earlier, and ended up on world 100. I didn't think much of it until I went to grand exchange afterward. Almost everyone was typing out their ings! I saw one person spamming out "buy willows," but everyone else was saying their respective market messages correctly. It freaked me out a bit, but it was incredibly cool too! The theme for the world is "group questing," so it's not even like it's a big trading world. I guess questers are probably just more intelligent in general. :-D
That's it for now, just a few more days of membership left and then I'll be f2p, inactive, and going on a proper vacation. I may make another post or two in the next few days if events warrant it, but mostly I'll be trying to get as much slayer and mining done as I can. I won't be gone too long, and when I get back it'll be right back to members to try and get that fire cape! Then I'll probably try to get a slayer helm. Those sound really really cool...
