I have realized the server has been down for almost a week now, so I thought I would give you up-to-date information about exactly what I am doing (very sorry for the inconvenience and wait time). I have been making training skills much harder and difficult and I lowered the amounts of money and exp rate of training (non-combat). I may lower than exp rate of combat though, but right now that's undecided. What I have done so far is this: Things I have updated and added:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~- Fixed thieving - Lowered the money it gives and it will now take longer.
- Added working firemaking - I still need to smooth it out though. You light logs and ashes will appear after a short while.
- Woodcutting - Instead of getting money now, you will now receive logs for firemaking and fletching (I have removed the logs from the shop, along with other items.)
- Mining - Removed money completely and made it so you need a pickaxe to mine (Sold at the skills shop, or now known as the 'Supplies Shop'.)
- Crafting - I have added fully working crafting, where you can now but a chisel and uncut gems from the supplies shop, craft them, and sell them back to the store for profit.
- Smithing - All I really did here was raise the money on bars
- Supplies shop - I have deleted many pointless items from this shop that weren't really supplies (lederhosen, camo, etc.)
- Highscores board - I have added a highscores board at skills, which will display the top 20 players on with the highest total level.
- Shops - I have deleted and priced up some items in the shops that I thought were pretty popular (Will be deleting Bandos & Armadyl since it's unneeded and ridiculous in strength.) I will still be making updates to shops.
Things that I will be adding and still need to:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Need to make firemaking make you take a step when you are done lighting a fire.Check the runecrafting skill (exp amount, also need to add more runes to it) ADDING REAL RUNECRAFTING!!!!Smooth out agility (exp amount, change the emotes, possibly add more objects.)- Change farming (Maybe add more things to plant, exp amount.)
Delete many shops as possible to clear up space THIS TOOK FOREVER!!!!Make herblore with mixing potions instead of clicking on a chest....- Move the training area and possibly new nps.
Add level requirements to all skill capes, as some have not been added.
The things in red above do not absolutely have to be done before turning the server back on. The others do, however. Once I have completed one of them, I will cross them off, like this to show you where my progress is. Once again, I'm very sorry for any inconvenience about the server being off. Thank you for understanding. ~Bill NOTE: There was a bug that occurred before I started making these updates. The bug was that when anyone would log on, it would automatically black screen them. This was because of me deleting part of the character file that was unneeded it cause some players to glitch and get black screened. I tried everything I could to fix this, but I just couldn't. The ONLY way I could fix it is by resetting everyone and deleting everyone's character. While that happened I decided that this would be a good time to make updates, such as lowering exp rates, deleting money, etc. as this was a problem before. A player could just give another play max cash and that was a huge problem because money should have value to it. Not just something you give away in huge amounts like that. So because I had to delete all the character files, this actually now makes it fair because all the money and items that previous players had has now been lost which helps me dramatically. When that happened, I decided to make these updates. I am very sorry that I had to delete everyone's character file, but that's what it took. Even if I didn't delete them, you still couldn't play on them. So why waste space on my computer? I hope you guys understand and I'm sorry.EDIT: THE SERVER IS READY TO GO BACK UP!!! Let me go over everything and make sure it is though first.

Wow so many awesome updates! I really like them all. And i really understand you Bill, I think when our accounts got reseted. It's like a new start for trying to be 1st in highscores and make more and more skills higher. All this is awesome. And im not worrying that my account got reseted. Thats cool!!
Big thanks to you Bill.

Your just JEALOUS because we act like idiots in public and people still love us!
The most important thing in life is to LOVE someone. The 2nd is to have someone LOVING you. The 3rd is to have the first 2 happen at the SAME TIME.
