Combat training
How should I be training combat? I'm trying to get 70 Strength, then 70 Attack, then I'll buy a whip and get 70 Defence. I'm training on Giant Spiders at the moment, and it's not that bad. I like training on aggressive things, and I don't care about drops. My stats are (currently training Strength, though) 67 Strength, 65 Attack, 63 Defence, 65 Hitpoints, 34 Summoning (never trained it other than TOG, I hate it), and 49 Prayer. I wear a Dragon Scimitar, Rune Defender, Helm of Neitiznot, Dragon Plateskirt, Granite Body, Amulet of Glory, Thieving skillcape, Dragon Boots, and Black Gloves (yes, I should really work on RFD). Are Giant Spiders the best option for me, or am I missing out on something good? I hate combat, it takes forever to train. 21:17, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Making New Pages
How do I make a new page on which I would put my house layout?--SamRosenfeld 18:19, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much.--SamRosenfeld 02:15, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Is the picture of your character on your user page big because it was taken in full screen, and if so does that mean I cannot make a picture of my character as big as the picture of your character as I am not a member? Also, is there a guide or a list of code for certain things people like to put in their user pages (such as their skills and userboxes), or would you like to recommend someone who you has an extremely full user page other than yourself? And did you archive your talk page using simple code that does it for you or a complicated method that you do not wish to explain as it would be laborious and I currently do not need to archive my talk page? --SamRosenfeld 03:06, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you so much. I am astounded by how amazing your response was, it must have taken a lot of time to compile. It should certainly take me a lot of time to sift through. Words cannot describe how incredible your response was. Thank you so much. --SamRosenfeld 23:02, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks again, and I should probably let you know that I changed the time and date on the winter wikifest page to the one currently agreed upon on the related thread. SamRosenfeld 11:29, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the Sandbox help. I was actually going to delete my failed attempt, but I didn't have time so it worked out for the best! The WikiFest schedule looks good, although I still don't know if I will be a member yet at that time. SamRosenfeld 00:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

How do I make the image in my sandbox show up as an image instead of a link? SamRosenfeld 01:02, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, it did. Now I can't figure out how to position the picture directly to the left of my stats and then put my userboxes to the left of that. Thank you again for all of your help. SamRosenfeld 00:30, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks again. I'm getting close to having my userpage the way I want it. SamRosenfeld 21:29, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Santa List
Can you clairfy with me how this works. I am willing to donate up to 5x's 6k to 5 different people. People wishing to accept this award signs the table correct? 06:31, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

parser function: #expr

 * Hello. I would like to find a way to cut the decimal places to 3 in parser function #expr. More details can be seen in my sub user page: price check. Thank you very much.

Wikifest p2p team
Hello Amaurice thank you for contributing so much and thinking of the Santa List! Unfortunately i have something else to ask you. There is a small chance i will not make it to clan wars due to personal issues and appointments in real life so i am making you general. You will be the only one capable of organazing the "army". Add me on runescape Homeboy 619. I will try my best to be able to be at clan wars but like i said it might not be possible. I am giving away free tuna and a few lobsters, plus some team 46 capes. If you can not attend please notify me so i can find someone so the fest doesnt turn chaotic. Also my clan chat will be the official one for this fest so spread the word! Less freeloaders will come!!!God Of War 07:46, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh i was not aware of that. No i will not be judging the competition unless no one is willing to do so. There is a bit of an emergency in my family so just incase as long as you are there for the beginning it would be good. I have also never played clan wars but it seems simple enough. I can give you stuff to give if you would like i have 2 full rune helmets that could be given out or a full adamant set. Maybe i could smith a full steel set if the winner was a low level player. I will be on runescape before the fest in world 156. On that world i will teleport to an undisclosed area of varrock and then switch to the f2p server so people can find me and gain a prize. The prize will range from a few runes to tuna/lobster maybe even some rune weapons if the trade limit allows. I will make sure the next fest is earlier and better organized next time. It does seem bad to not be able to have our UK users in the fest. God Of War 19:31, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Congrats
Although my f2p team lost its battle against your p2p team today, i am still honored to say "Congrats" to your victory.

At least my team and i tried our best out of our potentials.

Halp?
Hey Amaurice. I would quite like to set up a user page, but I have no idea of how to use Wiki coding. (Or any coding for that matter). How could I put together a simple user page? Regards. Arsenal 7149 21:35, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment. I've started to do a couple of things. I am first trying to complete my skill level box. I will do this as soon as I have access to the Hiscores. I've added a single userbar, I will look at further ones.

A couple of things I would like to know-
 * How do I align things in certain places? For example, if I wished to have a column of user bars on the right hand side of my page?
 * How do I create skill goal bars, like those present on your page?

Regards. Arsenal 7149 18:55, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

You are immeasurably helpful. Thank you very much. Arsenal 7149

Quick Question- How do I align my userboxes to the left, like I have tried to? Thank you, again. Arsenal 7149

You are incredible- thanks. Arsenal 7149

Some questions
Firstly, I noticed only a few of your skills aren't at 99! Do you think you'll 99 all of them this year? Also, I've been training slayer since today and it would be helpful if you gave me some tips. I might keep slaying until 99 while 99ing one or two other combat skills along the way, or I might just stop at 50. I use Vannaka as a slayer master, should I be using the fairy person with my stats? If I were to get 83 slayer, would killing infernal mages for dragon boots be a good source of making money? I'm dirt poor right now so I can't buy guthans for slayer :(. Finally, how long would 85 slayer take me (an estimate in hours) with Vannaka tasks (I'd switch to a harder master after my stats got a lot better)? 03:04, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

I've never actually summoned before, lol. I got from 1-36 entirely from Tears of Guthix and Wolf Whistle. How do I train? What pouches should I make at 36? Should I train my melee stats controlled after I get 70 defence (completing my goal of 70 in all melee), or train then in a specific order? I'm leaning towards controlled because I think it will save time in the long run as I will not have had to use a weaker weapon (Dragon scimitar vs. whip) to train strength. 21:36, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

System error on #expr

 * Hello again. Would you please see this page for examining the faulty variables? IP have checked all the function codes to be correct but the display doesn't seem to work, probably caused by another source. Also, when I preview the page it seems normal but messed up when viewed as usual. I think it would be a strange behavior of the wikia system. Thank you. -- 08:14, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Woodcutting
Hey amaurice! Was thinking about getting 99 woodcutting from my current 76 woodcutting. Knowing you got 99 woodcutting recently, i thought I'd ask. What trees did you train on? What axe did you do? Clothing (probably lumber jack right?) So yea, I was wondering if you could help me out, basically i was just wondering overall how you did it? lol, oh and how long did it take? OK =D

Do you think it would be possible to get it without lumberjacks and the beavers? or do they extremely help and make it go by alot faster? I will user a dragon axe, but may not use the beavers or lumberjack because a)i only have 4 summoning and i dropped all my gold charms =( what a noob mistake, i know. and b) i havent done all the quests for the minigame but i think thats managable. So yea, do they help alot? lol thanks so much,
