     IRC Nickname: Z3rosk8r Group: Clan Friend Posts: 57 Member No.: 1665 Joined: January 27, 2009 Total Events Attended: 7    | I have a question for you all, I know there will be different points of view on this topic and I am interested in all of your opinions. I do not have any 99's. Neither do a couple of people. Do you feel that if someone doesn't have a 99, that they are not as good as other people? I have considered getting a 99, but some of the 99's take months at a time. The easy ones, such as fletching, cooking, and firemaking, nobody even compliments you for having them. I am curious, do you all think of people as a much higher caliber when they have a 99? Just please explain your views on this topic, and I, and others, would be very interested to hear it. --------------------  | ||||

Not to mention how the community views the cooking cape now a days, unfortunately, it's not as 1337 as it used to be  . -------------------- | ||||

Like... your farming and hunter aren't ranked, so I'll probably bug you about that until you get them ranked.  I've seen plenty of idiots who have high cmb, but low overall. -------------------- | ||||

That's the thing though, it shouldn't matter what the community thinks of it, just what you think because you put your time and effort into getting it. -------------------- | ||||

If you are f2p, multiply x by (1/2). If you don't think 100M is a big deal, multiply x by 2. If f(x) > 1, you either have a life or some other very demanding obsession. If f(x) < 1, the solution represents the probability that you have a life outside RS. --------------------  | ||||

But both of these will take a very long, extended amount of time, and i know i would probably give up. but, I have no clue what i'll do :\. -------------------- | ||||

I don't see why people think 99 cooking is a 'noob' 99 either. It's pretty useful and not everyone has it, although it's very common. -------------------- | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Indivi2you Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 5361 Member No.: 43 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 623 | Ok... well I have 99 fletching, my only 99 skill im lvl 126, with 1939 total lvl. Back then, i thought i needed a 99, so i got fletching as it was easy. It was a hard skill to get it in back then though... So i was proud, but stupid Now i realise, a 99 skill is only important to you, i dont care what other think. I messed up, but dont mind. My next 99 will be mining make yours special. -------------------- The First, The Last, and the Only ~FLO Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion. ~Michael Jordan      | ||||

If you really like a skill, you will go for the 99 or get really tired training it. Go for the sill YOU want or do not it is better if it is something you want. I, myself, am a failed skiller. I started going for skills and got the combat fever so I have eight 99s all combat or combat related. I current have no non combat 99s. -------------------- | ||||
