By next month big change will happen. I feel that new players are totally confused when they first enter this server and don't wanna do anything. So I'm gonna go straight to the point. Next month(March), the starter package will be changed and combat training is no longer required EXCLUDING PRAYER. The reason why im doing this is because like I said, people are confused at start or don't even want to bother training. This will increase pking activity as well. The second was to do spawning but it wouldn't be fair to the others.
What we might have to do to get players

Well our best bet without a doubt is the last option that I don't want to resort to, which is pay for advertisements. Now I don't know if you are aware of costs on purchased advertisement; it's heavily expensive. Some adverts range from $100 to $1000 depending on which website. Now of course I'm not going to pay for that kind of fund which is really ridiculous. Why? Because it doesn't give you a …

Are we progressing?

Well I wanna start out with some statistics first. We have(at the time i posted this topic) 307 accounts total including people with multiple accounts. I can do a stats check for this later. Out of those 307 accounts, we have 256 inactive accounts. That is an 83% inactive player base leaving about 51 active accounts. We are in fact declining in votes as well assuming our player count average …

Are you ready?

Hello boys and girls! I want to let you guys know there is a stronger chance(80%) sure that the server will be coming back. Why you may ask? Well the support from your fellow players did not give up for the past year. They kept begging and begging for the server to come back. I was surprised and felt ambiguous.
Anyway, for those who weren't aware of what was going on in the past 2 months, I …

Thats good Sol, but I would suggest that you make prayer a bit easier. And no spawning is good, but PvP items shouldn't be so rare. The drops from the chest should be more consistent and if PvP armor/weapons (Statius,Vesta) remain too expensive, most people wouldn't try PKing with it.

I agree that there will need some change and this could be a good start.

I like the idea very much. But maybe you could add an option for players that want to train combat and players that don't want to train combat?
Regarding the item spawning is good if you don't add it. But like "Slushee" said pk item should be a little bit easier to get.
Off-topic:
I'll be offline for a short time at VPK. My internet provider has problems with internet and they don't know when it get fixed. When the problems don't get fixed i will be offline because the internet is commonly interupting my connection.

Sol, i must be honest. I played VPK back when it was a 317 (i think) and I found it amazing, I havent tried the 525 tbh but im going to today. However, Idc about the CB Training, but i think spawning should stay OUT, because there are still several ppl that are too lazy to spawn, or several ppl that will spawn useless items/sell the item codes etc. Spawning for players would be unbalanced, imo. Ofc the decision is still up to you, since u are the owner. But i have one other idea. Donate $50 and get the ability to spawn? eh, idk. anyway. Good luck, imma test it asap 
. also-- If you would like any code snippets, i could prolly help ya out. ofc ive never coded a 525, but i could figure it out im sure.

PS--Not askin for anything, just offering help.
PPS--If you do need some help coding, well, not need, but WANT, considering, i dont plan on makin a 525, unless for self code-testing, all i would need to know is what base source u were using, or client, but im better server sided tbh. anyway, still. offering to help if you want it

Donating for the spawn command would be the most retarded idea ever made....

I am trying to understand what you guys mean by spawning, but i still don't understand.
My ideia is like this. This is a pvp server, and the main objective, idk, but should be having ppl pking always. If i can't have gear, i will not risk my only gear i gave to pk.
That's why i am always saying the drop rating should change... i understand that if everyone could easy get everything will have no value to the items, but like, easy to get some items, like pk items. And i am not saying to in 10 monster give 5 things, what i am saying is to be fast to get something... Ppl will get tired if they need 4 5 6 or even 7h to get 1 item.
And the other items drop is paying the things we use.
I want to pk, but we need more ppl online

U should learn a little bit about sol dude.. his code is precious to him. and if u got on the 525 u could see he doesnt need help..
But a little more on topic.. i like the idea and also i would have to agree that prayer could get a bit easier because it was a hard task to just get the 75 for my ss.. the only complaint i would have is this is going to make it so easy to farm pk points im not sure what the underlying formula to keep pk farming from happening is but that is just something i would be concerned with sol.. im sure u got it figured out but thats my 2 cents worth =)

You should make prayer harder if your making all other combat skills easier to train

Not gonna lie don't like the idea at all. I think it is just stupid but its whatever, you want to increase pking then I guess this might help a bit
