Luring has been going on ever since Runescape Classic. Today we are going to delve into the various runescape lures, as well as old school runescape lures. This is purely for educational purposes and so that you guys can identify the lures and avoid them. Do not fall for this junk! These guys have lured billions upon billions of gp. More than likely most of this ends up on the runescape black market.
"these turds" "scum of the community" "these idiots" maybe the idiots and turds are the dumb clowns that fall for the lures especially with the thought of "I can anti lure/scam them for their shit" play stupid games win stupid prizes, you seem extremely pressed about scammers/lurers, defo has happened to you because you got greedy.. is what it is I guess but if you fall for any scams or lures you defo deserve it
Lmao I am covering the lurers/scams and throwing a few jokes in here and there. You can't have sympathy for some younger kids (or more naive players) that get scammed without having been scammed yourself? Horrible logic my guy. You did make me laugh though by how tilted you got over some fairly mild insults.
If you take that 'if you fall for it you deserve it' logic into the real world I only hope you see why it's wrong. I'll copy your presumption and guess that you are a scammer because you seem so pressed about him condemning scammers and therefore you have no remorse and are probably on the wrong side of the logic I said at the start
I'm pretty sure you would fall for these too at age 10 or so. You seem to have a guilty conscience, maybe you're sour because you've been shunned from the community since you're one of the scammers.
Aloninos admitting he scams people for digital items and is projecting his insecurities
@@odioRS you are immature and sound like a delusional sociopath bro. time to grow up.
Back in the day there were some rocks near Edgeville that you could walk into, but the game would push your character back out. You could time it to drop something in this spot, but you couldn’t pick anything up from it. When I was 9 I was told it would be a money glitch if I dropped my cashstack there and it would double. They ended up telegrabing it and I cried lol
Well you learn the hard way 😂 I bet this won't happen again
Yikes
Hey, I don't usually ever comment on videos but I just wanted to say thank you for the videos you've been making lately. I've enjoyed what I've watched of you lately. Like most people I watched your RSC videos as they came out and was sad to see the game close; but I really wish you the best with this new direction and I hope your channel grows in time.
That means a lot, Thank you so much! Yeah I was bummed when it closed as well, it sucked. Really glad you are enjoying the new direction
I remember there use to be a particular popular lurer on TH-cam when I was younger. He made music montages of things such as his group dark bow spec'ing people after luring them into the wilderness. I thought the videos were cook at the time. But then I actually ended up coming across him by chance in game. Even started up a conversation telling him how I liked his videos... he then proceeding to try and lure me 😅
No way, dude!
Prince of opinion: I'm a big fan of watching you trick people, murder them, and then take their loot!
Lurer guy: Follow me friend! We will galavant carefree to wonderful lands with our fanciful treasures!
Prince of opinion: 👁️👄👁️
I got my bank lured. I don't know what I was thinking. This was back in like 2009 when claws were about 35m, I'm pretty sure I used a credit card to buy some gold. Keep in mind, I was like 10 years old, those claws were everything to me.
Anyway, it happened in clan wars, If you used to play back then, you know clan wars were common. I got tricked into playing a dangerous clan war, and I was told I was going to be protected by about 5 max levels so I wouldn't die. Skip forward, the other team was also in on it and they just rekt me. Worst times of my childhood
:( thats horrible. What a bunch of asshats
OMG! I once had that lending item lure tried on me once, and I decided I was gonna play along and then when my health was getting a little low I flicked the Protect item prayer on, and like 10 seconds later they killed me and of course got nothing, then they rage messaged me that they didn't steal my items and called me all the names under the sun, they even said they were gonna report me for scamming LMAO! I just said, "I'm glad I could waste your time from luring someone who didn't know how to completely counter you." My god that was satisfying, the item if I remember was an SGS.
Jeez, nice save. Funny how mad they get when their little plans dont work. Also crazy they get mad for you wasting their time when they steal people's crap and make them waste time getting it back
@@therunescapehistorian IKR! at some point during the argument I even said "You're stealing people's hundreds of hours of work" or something like that... their response? Which will always stick in my mind... "Well they fall for it so they deserve it" I reply something to the effect of "Then you deserve me wasting your time, enjoy the 4 prayer xp you'll get for burying my bones" some people man...
I remember hearing about these and being terrified of the wildy lol
Haha :) perfectly understandable
Exactly same here
I hate the wildly, the only reason I go in there is for the lava wyrms/ wildy worm occasionally and I swear I'll be in the middle of slaying a wyrm and 4 or so "pkers" come up and kill me with royal d'hide and cheap equipment just to be dicks. Annoying af.
Framed used to be a lurer'er, and I feel like thats not common knowledge.
Haha, yeah I saw some red portal lures of his while I was researching
It’s common knowledge it’s just who really cared yaknow
i never knew that. thats messed up
Never knew that, guess i dont need to feel so bad about not liking his content then haha
He was iSkiml00t before he was Framed and he was definitely one of the biggest lurers at that time. It’s a shame because he seems like a good dude now, it just feels like the RS community as a whole was a lot less ethical back then. Some people were just pure scum though, like Mx799.
Lmao had a lurer trade me 200m and a Phoenix necklace and said tele. Immediately logged out 🤣
This is 200iq
As DJ Khalid once said you smart you very smart ( I think ) 😂
Somebody help me tame this aaaa--niiiii--maaaaaal
This animal I have becooomee!!!
What an epic way to lose a BCP you bought with your mom's credit card!
LOL
What do you guys think of these turds? If you see usernames within the video, please refrain from harassing them. We are better than that.
Did you miss the last video? th-cam.com/video/BsN_XqnZ4ac/w-d-xo.html
As always if you enjoyed be sure to do all of the usual TH-cam stuff. Thanks guys!! Appreciate y'all!
Lures suck. I can respect people coming up with the ideas, some are pretty smart.
But luring unsuspecting players for their money is just sad. However i do think its part of Runescape.
There is something cool about avoiding these traps aswell, just like in real life.
Now if id compare luring to other 'problems' in the game, such as the black market, i think thats a much bigger problem.
The amount of unlegit infernal capes is insane, aswell as the amount of bought gold. Takes away to much from the game experience.
Cool video tho, love these.
I think it's much deeper than that bro... You are a good heart player and I can tell you've been around a while because of updates you recognise from old old old-school runescape, your intent is to make money off your content so you have learnt alot from runescape and life if you are able to build a profitable module independent or have to courage to do that on TH-cam so yee... People are gonna be people runescape is gonna runescape and life will always teach us lessons
@@soulNFS I agree with you on this, and the fact he states this "If you see usernames within the video, please refrain from harassing them. We are better than that." clearly prove it and only supports what you said and I am glad to see there are still genuinely kind hearted people out there in the world.
@@Phat_Tokes I'm no Saint but I'm defiently not a scum bag player either... Just want to be honest
If you ever wanna make a part 2 I have some suggestions:
Trollheim mountain (pre eoc)
Purple portal (pre eoc)
Corp cave (osrs)
Duel arena mouse toys (osrs)
Brass key lure (osrs)
Dungeoneering white portal lure (pre eoc)
Pharaohs scepter lure (osrs)
Bounty hunter lure (osrs)
Much appreciated!
I seriously miss those old RS Classic vids you did but these videos are a great new direction for your channel. They're very well researched and well put together. Keep em coming!!
Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it! Yeah its unfortunate rsc closed
That happened to me in like 2011. Someone dropped a blue phat in lvl1 wildi and I was like 120cmb. Legit got swarmed by 15+ people, couldn’t even telly in time. 😂 rip 200m. Shamefully I resorted to luring other people after that making a ridiculous cash stack but I feel horrible about it now.
All good all good, we all did dumb shit back in the day. I remember shutting the doors on people who would be getting attacked by randoms then loot their stuff haha
Ahh the red port lure. framed & ronan's speciality
Lol!
YES LOL
I remember falling for a lure as a kid where a friendly stranger said to come with him to the wilderness to PK me for his PK montage and that he'd give my stuff back afterwards. Some ten year olds are calculating as all hell, and some are ridiculously naive enough to fall for something so blatant!
They definitely can be! I didnt ever fall for any lures but I have been scammed by the classic noted red d'hide chaps instead of d legs scam back in 2006 or so. They're sneaky!
Same thing to me. I was devastated
They would barrage and pressure you to attack back but auto retaliate wouldn’t work. And if you give in and just attack you will skull
Still waiting on my mithril armor to be trimmed ):
I was never lured but I was scammed once. Hindsight is definitely 20/20. I was so young, didn't know any better. The justification that the people who are being lured "bought their gold anyway" makes no sense, as many if not most of the people doing the luring are real-world trading themselves. It's kind of pathetic to be able to say that you fuck people over on a daily basis as a job. It's a subsistence kind of life that comes from a lack of moral fiber and marketable skills. I feel bad for people that do this sort of thing, whether they be cowards conning the elderly or luring a 10 year old for their BGS. I think if my life was so empty and pointless that pixels outweighed a moral compass, I'd end my toxic little life. Then again, that would involve self-awareness, and the edits with all of the wipes and effort put into them showcase that this is the crowning achievement in the life of a parasite. Thanks for the video, I always like seeing the older game in action, even if it's under sad pretext.
I fell for the red portal lure when I was 12 but their ice barrage splashed on full dragon somehow, I probably would have quit if I died then lol
same lol i was like 9 and i lost full zammy rune. it wasnt that much to me but i stopped playing because runescape players just all seemed like scum at the time.
as a kid i got lured to jungle before. I was like 9 or so. I cried losing all my stuff, begging him to not do it. Yeah it kinda ruins your experience because as a kid its a big deal. You could say i was naive, but I also didn't know much about runescape. English isn't even my native language
You missed the giant mole cave lure. Take the other persons candle, and they die a slow death.
I almost lost my entire bank value when I was a fresh member with 1.5M to my name. I wanted to get an abby whip so badly but the price was 1.9M at the time. I put offers on the forums for 1.5M and someone PMed me saying they would sell. We met north of where GE would be now (no wildy border at the time). A lvl 3 with santa hat was standing behind a tree, of course just inside the wildy. He was obviously stalling, telling me he would buy my air staff for 1M or something. In came a pk'er that barraged me and DDSed. I miraculously escaped with 7 hp. I ran out of wildy and started cursing the lurers when a poison splash *6* hit me. My hp bar was completely red and I panic logged out. I was not sure if I was already dead or not (cause of entirely red hp bar). But I told my older brother about it so he said 'relax, where were you exactly?' and we logged in at the same time same world, I died shortly after the log in and he picked up my stuff and gave it back. Best bro.
i understand getting skull tricked to a certain point, but who the fuck actually drops their elysian in any situation
Lmfao ikr, its like what do u think is going to happen
It's cringe to be so mad at lurers lol. You have to be an idiot to fall for lures. None of these scams work on anyone with a shred of intelligence, which is what makes them perfectly fine. Games that baby the players and hold their hands are extremely boring.
Honestly most lures are so dumb. If you have the money to make to worth luring you should know you are being lured. I have no sympathy for them.
all types of lures are fine in my opinion because it stems from greed on both sides
Thanks for the video! Jojo3000's videos were rigged, so the victims were just his friends. There were a lot of discussions about this at the time. The goal was for him to be remembered, which seems to have worked.
He had the username Lure Me that’s sick tho🤣 OG
True haha
20:15 minute silence for the guy who thought he was in a music video.
I have only ever been lured once. It was around 06 when I first became a member. My first time looking around the members only area of Karamja. Some guy offered to show me around. Can’t remember exact details, but he took me to some poisonous scorpions. At the time I didn’t even know poison damage was a thing in game and i just assumed they were the same kind of scorpions that were in the Falador mine. I ended up getting poisoned, tried running back to a bank, but couldn’t make it. They chased me down until I died and lost 100k which as a low level f2p up to that point was a lot. Wilderness lures seem very obvious that sometimes you can’t feel too sorry for the person that got lured (lurer is still scum though) but lures using NPC’s in seemingly safe areas are much more difficult for new players to catch.
My younger brother got scammed by some kid doing the tablet scam.
"Kk i'll buy your stuff on my main, he's at Camelot, take this tablet"
Poor boy lost his bank.. 55M (full bandos and whip and some other stuff)
I mean he was a noob at the time but loved the game. He loved gear, not cash. He thought he made a great deal being new to the game.
Aww hell, that sucks man. Those people are the scum of the community.
New player probably wouldn’t have an elly or a phat. I think wildy lures are fine, everything else is pure scam
11:45 you a real old school when u said GWAS lmaoooo 100fightmage
you missed brimmy tribesmen lure
haha cant fit em all in one vid, it would be hours long. I'll have to include that if I ever do a part 2.
People are actually so dumb, rather just dropping your items, just say you dropped and then trade.
that doesnt work because the trade screen shows how many inventory slots you have open
@@peekay120 true, but its the dumbest thing i ever heard like drop your items so i can give you loot :D probably if you fall for this you deserved get scammed.
check out "lotsofpkvids"
the pharao scepter one is so weird to me. i was literally given a pharao scepter and... just didnt teleport...? like, it isnt that hard not to left click it. sure, they bank on people not knowing that it teleports you. but still, they are losing millions every time someone does know it
i got lured for zammy monk robes at like age 9 and was devestated lmfao
there was also give aways/drop parties then hopping on foreign worlds then they tele group to wilderness on foreign worlds and that's how many lost their banks in like lvl 50 wilderness
Yup, good info! Thanks
Dang I remember that 😯
Nice video great detail! I lost a whip to the alchemy value based item protection back in the day. Killing greens with my whip and a total noob in rune with a d long attacked me I killed him and found 4 notes dragon battle axes. Fantastic right? Well the whip I lost was probably around 5m at the time
That was a lure in itself lol I used to bring an alt with granite bodies and die to the person then attack that person with a different account
Over the years I have lost a purple phat from a fake sythe middleman, two drygore weps when they had just came out from the clan kingdom lure, and about 90 million gp back in the day from a doubler (had i stopped one trade earlier i would have made 45million). I even had someone become a friend and gain my trust over the span of weeks to steal a santa. Hopefully I have learned my lesson by now haha. =p
Love your voice king, deff earned yourself a sub for this vid
I fell for the red portal lure back in 07 :( I lost my d bow I was very proud of as a 10 year old and I'll never forgive or forget
The whip/mystic tops lure was the first scam I saw where I was like "Oh shit, there's levels to this stuff". Really smart trick to be fair.
i got lured by that clan wars method back in the day, wearing the exact same armor, i was wondering if it was me until i saw the name, i wonder if someone uploaded when they lured me
I remember Elvemage being muted when he was luring too much people in the wilderness, that was 14 years ago
I can give you some answers about the Jojo lures as far as how people fell for them. For example, the guy that thought they dropped 192m cash. You say obviously they didn’t. Keeping in mind the general limited game knowledge of the time - what they would do is show the 192m, drop it, walk under you and quickly alch a rune med, or something similar, drop that in the wild and then run back and pick their 192m back up. They’d also position the coins on specific tiles where telegrab would make you run into the wilderness, such as right behind a tree.
You also said it was absurd that rares didn’t protect over any other items and that determining what was kept by alch value was absurd. It does make sense though. Pre GE there was no other way to determine what was more valuable, so that’s why alch value was used. When you consider that rares we’re intended to be worthless it makes sense that their alch value was set to 1 or 0.
I remember back then the rune armour with gold outlines scam. Ppl were advertising that they would buy it for you if you traded them money. Luckily I was smart enough to not fall for that trick when I was 9! xD
Unpopular opinion: The best thing that can happen to you is to get scammed/lured when you are young BEFORE you get massively rich. That way you are cynical enough that you will never fall for these things AFTER you get massively wealthy. I've been scammed a few times and now I'm cynical enough I always assume everything is a scam first. I don't care how ridiculous it seems. You need 1 gp? Scam.
The most embarrassing one was one I really should've known better. In rs3. Still learning the EOC combat mechanics. I was in wildy, in multi. I was frozen and couldn't run or tele, so I decided to try to fight back to do as much damage as possible. Basically make them work for the kill. Most of my wealth was in 3 items and I wasn't skulled, so I wasn't too worried. Then some random dude just said "Use hurricane". And I didn't know much about the abilities yet, so like an absolute idiot I go ahead and click hurricane.
Instantly skulled on the friend and then spec'ed out. Lost... so much.
I ALWAYS think about that now whenever in the wildy, whether RS3 or OSRS. I want to kill the crazy archaeologist? I KNOW to use blitz spells and not barrage, because wouldn't want to accidentally skull on some random dude who just world hops in.
Remember taxi services? One of them took me to the wild when i was afking as a kid before the ditch was a thing lol.
Dude... I played in 2003 on. Ten year olds did have Santa's and masks (not many with phats).
I remember I had a Santa I bought for like 60k in trade and sold for 90k. I was 10. I wanted a green dhide mask for training 😩
Runescape was built on luring and scamming. Honestly I never have understood why everyone is so uptight about it.
An entire generation learned how to avoid snakes in a web-based simulator.
Antiluring was the best. Have someone with a santa seem like they're falling for it while they have a few pking buddies kill the people waiting to kill the guy with the santa. Just deserts.
6:23 I kinda embarrased to have fallen for this twice as a noob back in the day around 2006-2007 lol... First time I died with all my crap (rune chain, dlong, ect), and then I brought a lightsource but not a tinder box, but I didn't die with alot at least lmao. Both times it was with like a huge line of people for a drop party, it was hillarous looking back at it lol.
I might be among most who never fell for lures, I say the more successful for ones are greedy though, cause I 100% doubt someone could be so foolish, but then again, you don't know who is on the otherside, whether a kid, a random adult or maybe someone with autism.
While I definitely will say it's honestly not worth trusting a random person you don't know, especially if they're being overly "nice"
But I don't commend Lurers and scammers, they choose to earn gp by manipulation and lying and just being completely fake terrible people.
That pinned comment gave me a laugh, really shows what mentality they have, the kind that would probably walk past a someone in need of help.
When I was 12 and made my 1st account, I got scammed for my 1st set of rune, scammed for my 1st whip, and hacked for my 1st 50mil. Then I quit at combat level 136 of 138.
In 4th grade I'd lure noobs to wildy and kill em. Probably just a bunch of 20s and 30s. I'd bring em to falador Park to get a spade then bring em to wildy to get "buried treasure". I also got full Addy offering trimm for free lol. I was an ads please I just skill and quest now. Spare me.
I remember once I got scammed for a dragon battleaxe (not lured..) this was before GE ever came out, I was kind of annoyed but then shrugged it off as it was only like 250k lol but nevertheless, I was chopping magic trees to get that money to get the axe and some kid I guess found it funny to scam 250k, no biggy, but from that day on, I learned to trust no one on RS xD I had a few people approach me as well telling me to follow them and all, and I just said nty and moved on lol
Not gonna lie, years back when I was getting into rs again in general after not playing since 2007, I got lured in the dumbest possible way.
Guy tells me he'll give me a lot of gold if I give him enough stuff. My dumbass fell for it because he was so convincing. IDR how it went but I remember feeling really confident about what he was saying. NEVER AGAIN. Learned my lesson on that one.
However in RS3 this guy lava titan lured me because I had no idea it had a wildy teleport. As I stopped playing before summoning.
Thankfully I was skilled in combat from bossing and what not and got myself to KBD's lair and teleported out but it was a close one.
Dude even tried to pm me again a few months later after changing their name.
Back before the GE was a thing and people stood around Varrock west bank I got scammed for my entire bank's worth in a single simple trade lol.
I believe at the time they just changed the trade screen to include the second confirmation screen or moved the accept/decline to the bottom, so it flew over my head. Someone said you could duplicate any item, even coins/runes, by turning them into notes in the trade screen with a glitch by spam clicking on a specific letter in a word on the first trade screen. They had me put up everything and accept my side then spam click that spot, which coincidentally was the "accept" prompt on screen 2.
Lost my full Addy (g) that day, and probably like 120k more. Not a lot now but for a kid around '05 it was devastating lol.
First time i got lured way back in the day (i was still noobish but achieved full rune weaps/armor already) i was in Karamja and 2 dudes walked up to me promising to show me something funny. i go "OK!" so i followed them till we came up on this one tribal who then stabs me with his poisoned spear. at that point, they set "follow" on me and said "you saw that? he was naked! LOL"
i kept losing HP slowly, i ran towards the village, they were still following me, talking about how that guy was crazy and had poisoned me. i lead them on for a while, and when i was low HP, i took my antidote and ate some food hahaha. they were so disappointed and immediately left me alone with "oh good, you have antidote" before running off to lure someone else.
IDK about you, but the only time I remember getting scammed, it was a really obvious doubling scam.
Thing was... it was a momentary lapse of judgement. Good old brain fog. Ended up trading away my Guthans and even some runes before it finally occurred to me I was getting scammed.
The same kind of lapse of judgement that makes you casually walk around in a pvp world with a dark bow as your only weapon thinking your hot shit... when you have never been good at pvp.
What's sad is that high level players still fall for it, the grind is so long so I'm not surprised they don't know this shit already or look at any media surrounding OSRS but I guess most people that fall for it either buy their accounts, RWT, or fathers stocks and BOND money
The ice plat lure was easily countered with a seercull bow, back then whatever you hit, for example a 40, their magic levels would drop by 40. I counter pked so many lurers who didn't understand this mechanic for the spec attack. They never wised up to it really.
20:13 This legit made me laugh so hard I had to step away. He got trolled so hard I can do nothing but clap like a regarded seal
Lmao, imagine dying that way
@@therunescapehistorian I would be so devastated I think that’s why I’m laughing so hard is I see my own face after realizing I lost my Brando’s top after falling for a RSMV lure
everyone hates to lose the stuff they've worked hard for...
but in the context of a mostly open-ended role playing game if someone wants to play the role of a thug or robber (within the restraints of the game, not including exploits etc.) then I don't see that as a problem.
you might even learn a few lessons that could be handy IRL...
Best anti lure. Know it's happening. Make them think your gonna fall for it. And drag that out for 6 hours and 24 minutes. Then block em.
The reason people get away with it is because either the victims are younger or just really deep in the games addictive cycles. So it’s not so much greed, it’s just like you want to reach the next goal or milestone and of course want to take the short cut because the damn game is a freaking grind fest to say the least… even the creator thought it was insane that anyone would ever max any stat…. He made it a ridiculous incline. People get freaking impatient with the grind…. Especially kids cause you know how back then 1 hour felt like a damn day….
My first clan was full of lurers and I fell for one of these. I lost my dark bow before it crashed hard just before eoc launched. I would have hated losing bandos in osrs.
To answer why the items kept on death was valued based on the items high alch value was because these were most common before the days since the Grand Exchange came to be. There was no set market value in player to player trades that the game could quantify, everything was traded player to player for whatever they agreed. Store / alch value was the only in-game data point.
almost got lured for full bandos way back, the person even got me to the wild ditch, but they offered way too much and dropped the money in the wild behind a rock. which was probably 11k, part of me really wanted to pick it up though.
i was once lured for Black (g)... i was like 10 maybe 12 dont matter but someone took me to Falador park an have me trade back the Candel they gave me to enter giant mole.. unbeknown to me what would happen if i extinguished the candle
Obviously it's mean to lure. But at the end of the day, if you got lured part of the blame is on yourself for being gullible enough in the first place. Even playing this game as a kid I knew better than to go anywhere with my good stuff where I could lose it. I rarely had my good gear on unless I was actively using it at the time anyway.
The people who fall are literally why scams exist. What kind of a clown has an elysian and full bandos and hasnt done fucking fight arena? You actually deserve to lose all your shit and quit the game, like I initially resented scammers until I started seeing vids like these showing who their "victims" are
what are your thoughts on farmer fred and his simple request for wool balls? what does he need them for? why so many? he asks every adventurer for 20 balls each. when you add all those balls of wool up you can see the conspiracy unfold. because where is he storing all these balls of wool he never leaves his home. on one of my stake outs of his home i spied a goblin with him in his bedroom. i fear farmer fred might be in cahoots with the goblins and might be fixing to take over lumbridge!
Honestly... I kinda appreciate being scammed when i was younger, not that I think scamming and luring people is good, but it teaches you the reality of the world and not to trust anyone one but yourself. teaches you to be smart. so yes thank you scammers for scamming my dumb ass when i was younger, even if I hated it back then, I learned from it haha
I once lost full rune in like 06 from following some guy into the wild who said we were going to kill some boss together and share the loot. Obviously he killed me and lost like 200k in rune and items. After that day I never got scammed or lured in rs or any game/real life situation again really.
Let's be honest. Everyone who played runescape back in the day has scammed or tried to scam at some point. Thankfully we've grown up for the most part lol
going to the staking world and tele other to the wild or giving wild tele tabs and killin them for bank lmao..
I got hit with the Ice-Plateau group tele when I first got members and my first 1m. Forgot to bank before I accepted the tele and lost it. rough times.
I actually lost a whip due to picking up 4 dragon battleaxes. Then I started using an alt to pick up those axes/tops/etc... 🙂
W18 edge alching 1 sq before lvl 1 wildy ppl would trade u and run in wildy lol seen so many get lured...this was waaay b4 wildy ditch
so that cape in the red portal lure wasnt a team cape, thats i beleive the level 40 all cape
I don’t know man… yeah luring isn’t cool but if you’re that stupid to bring all your stuff into a dangerous area or drop it all then I feel like you deserve to lose it. It’s not like the people luring are forcing them to do anything
I remember someone tried to lure me with the telegrab walk out 10 steps mechanic but I had a 2nd acct so I logged in moved where the item was on a diff server and then logged in and grabbed it lmfao, aNti lured the tits off those dudes lmfao
around 4:00 you talk about why you're not sure they made the high alch value to what determines what items you keep well they did this cause there was literally no other way to tell the game what items you kept on death since the ge didn't always use to exist and the ge is what caused alot of event items to skyrocket in price jagex just never changed it because well to be honest they didn't think it would matter since items like the santa hat you're not gonna go into the wildy or pvming normally with right? plus at the time it was probably alot harder to code the value of the item based on the ge price since it would be a always changing number as prices go up and down so ya probalby didn't have the tools to program it until years down the road
you're saying in hind sight it doesnt make sense why it was determined by alch value. but that s not true. the systems stems from pre-grand exchange times. meaning, there was no other official value of an item other than its alch value. so it absolutely does make sense it was that way. but it also made sense to change it
It seems the mentality of the lurer is "I tricked you therefore you deserve to lose your stuff." We gotta see ourselves as the good guys in our own stories somehow, I guess. Nothing we do is ever inexcusable lol
lured black knight fortress in 2005-2006
100 fabao, a fucking Brazilian was a pro declining trade and making people go to lvl 50 wild
Ngl, I was the kid looking up luring videos to try to learn how to do it lol luckily for my conscious' sake I sucked at it.
Your channel is an underrated gem and deserves more views.
Truth be told youtube has gone so mainstream now... quality channels that would have blown up before, don't now. Some people say that's down to more quality content, but i just think most people are shallow and love mainstream and soulless content lol.
You didn't need to be a good player to have a mask set back in the day. I traded my dwarf cannon for one and I was not a good player back them.
Skype came out in 2003, team speak and Ventrilo came out in 2002. :)
nothing wrong with luring its litterarly a game that was based on luring dont like it dont play it
Only time I got lured is because I got cocky and thought I could waste their time. It’s not worth it just ignore them. If it’s too good to be true it is
i almost was a vicitim of the red portal once, i saw movement up north and run like hell and did not go back in hehe. did fall for one of the coins on ground once.
Anyone remember the time when they released German words and people would tele other to wild but would be saying can I tele you to cammy lmao.
Made enough money to buy a quarter of hash every week from gnomeball lure, paid my stoned ass for long time
There was one where you would be fighting someone in players house and they kick you on the last spec and their hits, hit you outside of house and loose your stuff
Yep, classic
please dont harrass these guys, the last thing we want in this community is accountability XD
I fell for the dumb wildy ditch lure once. It's like a rite of passage.
noob was used often to offend people. i completely forgot until i watched this video lmao
