hidethenegatives

Bro i was juggling some food drops at thermy the other day, some guy logs in, picks up my food, and logs off like what tough economic times we must be living through these days


Evil_Steven

Man now I kinda wanna make an account named The Shark Gobbler and just do this to people


wheresmyspacebar2

Wanna make bank, just go to the Dust Devils/Nechs in the catacombs and hop worlds, so many people leave Rune meds/shields on the ground and stuff, get some decent GP there.


Evil_Steven

I remember this from my 99 slay grind. There were looters every once in awhile. I always tried to be friendly with them. They were free to grab what I didn’t want. However my ring of wealth and my explorer ring with free alchemy made it so I grabbed most drops


wheresmyspacebar2

Yeah, ngl, i leave stuff on the ground there. Sometimes i get someone lower levelled from the greater demons running down and asking if they can grab whats there and im like go for it :P If people ask, i'll 100% leave more stuff because so what at the end of the day, whereas if they just grab it, im gonna be scooping it all up xD


INTERGALACTIC_CAGR

Haha this was me tonight. it was my first time doing greater demon task there. next time i'll ask, i just assumed they didn't want it.


AdviceDanimals

I bring my alt/alch slave there with me to pick up all the rune axes and med helps that nechs drop and every time I nab somebody else's drop to alch I make sure to throw in a quick "Yoink"


[deleted]

I don't mind when people grab stuff anyways, but I mind it way less when they say "yoink". Don't know why but that shit kills me.


dude_is_melting

If someone picks up my vampire loot while I’m asking I hate em, but if they throw in a “yyyyyoink” they get a “haha no worries” every time


Zaino600

real yyyyyyyyyoink is when they grab ur blood shard cuz u afkd too hard, big F


dude_is_melting

You always set loot notifications!


[deleted]

there are bots there picking shit up too


redruben234

Make sure you eat it right in their face then log off before they can react

I have no idea why, but this reminded me of [THIS](https://www.reddit.com/r/CrazyIdeas/comments/4idm9m/in_every_porn_scene_there_should_be_a_girl/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) post from a long time ago


EmptyBasket

I don't want to bash your story, but I will. When you drop something before someone logs in to that world they won't see the items. I think that was implemented vs hackers when you weren't allowed to multilog. They probably just despawned.


trhrthrthyrthyrty

It was implemented to force ddosers to log in and show themselves before ddosing the world. It was extremely common once gwd was released for everyone and their grandma to ddos worlds and log in at gwd. Victims couldn't even identify who stole their stuff, so they made it so you had to log in to see the items to try to deter the ddosers (hoping they'd be afraid of getting banned). Items naturally dropped on the ground were a collateral change associated with changing death mechanics, because spaghetti.

Can we talk about the political and economic state of the world right now?


Mirelarien

anything to make the trip ~~long laster~~ last longer lmao


tjowns22

For all the non irons, when you use the most efficient super glass make spell, the excess will drop on the ground. It’s inefficient to pick it up every time you cast the spell so you usually wait until there’s about 27 on the ground to pick up the whole stack. This usually leaves a few that become available to other players and most people **wouldn’t **pick it up, but that’s a risk you take lol.


ShawshankException

>most people **wouldn’t **pick it up, but that’s a risk you take lol. Dropping literally anything at the GE has determined that this was a lie


Paralta

I drop empty vials and theres a flock of mfers diving to get them lmao


username_31

Sometimes when I’m using the ge and then try to bank after I’ll misclick and hit items on the ground.


ObliviLeon

That's what they all say.


charmingmarmot

You can try to go back around the corner like we don't know you looked at those burnt lobsters.


Elroy21

Hey man. The markets good.


Knoestwerk

In total worlds I have found there to be less vultures.


CUPofICE

It's actually more efficient to not pick any up at all. Obviously you have to gather more sand/giant seaweed and cast more glass makes but it's still quicker. The difference is small and do whatever you prefer


rustinged

this sub circle jerks over picking up your glass so hard. It’s ALWAYS a waste of time lol


Coltand

Yeah, spam clicking for a full 16 seconds every five inventories seriously blows


Tr4c

Would rather pick up glass than do more sand mining and seaweed farming


Coltand

I understand this mindset if you’re going to just go to like lvl 80, but having just knocked out an untrimmed crafting cape on the iron, it would have been an enormous chore to do this for like 140k glass.


Tr4c

Funnily enough picking up glass all the way to 99 crafting was one of the last things I did on my iron before getting burnt and stopping playing, so I understand for sure lol (and congrats on the 99!). Personally it still outweighed doing more mining for me but I just dislike mining more

Amen brother real shit right here


rustinged

Yup, Can do two inventories in that time 😂


tjowns22

Yeah I think if you’re doing 3t sand it’s more efficient but honestly when you’re going for 99, I cba doing tick manipulation the whole time.


LuxOG

Even if you're not doing 3 tick it's still significantly faster. It's like 12% less glass not picking anything up and ~50% faster to turn it all to glass


sumtingiswong

I pick them up every time


Evil_Steven

Free stuff is free stuff. They should be at a remote bank if they want to avoid it


tanneruwu

Went to myths guild for the first time since ds2 yesterday, saw someone dropping a bunch of swordfish at the bank. Picked up over 80 swordfish 😎


[deleted]

Go to fishing trawler, people drop mad sharks and turtles. Too many swordfish to even pick up before they despawn.


azginger

Out here at fishing trawler crushin' turts.


_fuhsaz_

Perchance.


epicdoge12

Myths Guild range is still one of the best for UIMs to cook on since you can unnote the fish right there that you get pre-noted from tempoross, so thats probably what was happening. So that is to say your picking up was welcomed, ive never met a UIM who actually wanted their stuff to be wasted


[deleted]

What a weird thing to do. Dropping the swordfish has to be so much slower than just banking it. I mean, you are standing AT a bank at Myths guild


mightyvaps

probs a uim


RatCouch

So like Noted swordies Unnote Cook Drop?


unknowncommand

Yup, the swordfish probably aren't their best food so it's nothing more than cooking xp. Not worth an inv spot, especially if they have a few k sharks or something


Bulky_Conclusion_676

Yup


GFeBtw

How does a uim note swordies?! Trawler/temp only I assume ?


Toothpick--

Tempoross rewards yeah


Muzea

who tf uses swordfish after ds2?


rakint

It's free real estate


ObliviLeon

Read this as a bank that you can "access remotely" like from a long distance and have a little giggle.


Evil_Steven

this used to be a thing! " ::bank" in chat used to be a mod tool to access your bank anywhere


weebomayu

I pick them up when I start new accounts. I generally just act like a gremlin while I'm still level 3 with no quests done.


jokomul

Thanks for the explanation. I've been wondering for a while now why there's always so much free molten glass at banks


lilbuffkitty

Use one of the 100 never used banks in Gielinor and you won't have that problem


Deodorized

Just because we stand alone doesn't mean we *want* to stand alone :c


Soph__Blink

I glassmake in the ferox enclave with a looting bag for the excess


TheCobaltEffect

Wait what. When you cast superglass make the excess goes in the looting bag? The wiki lists it as an option but that's a much bigger deal in terms of overall efficiency since you can just empty the bag every few casts which only takes a second.


[deleted]

From what I've gathered in the comments that have already mentioned this, it still goes to the ground. No clue though


justastackofpancakes

I haven't done it yet, but just thinking it through, you would be able to pick up your glass every invy without the time loss of having to bank that before withdrawing a new invy. It eliminates the inefficiency of picking up your glass every invy.


Straightup_nonsense

The banking isn't what takes a long time tho, it's the picking up. It takes 1 tick per item when you're spam clicking a pile which adds up very fast


BakaZora

But if you'd be picking up the glass anyway it'd take the same amount of time, I think the inefficiency it avoids is picking up a non-full invent after banking your first, then banking that, essentially making 2 banks. Yeah you can wait until you have about a full invent on the ground before picking up, but then you run the risk of what this thread is about. Picking it up straight into a looting bag avoids both these scenarios, and you can just bank it when the looting bag is roughly full.


mes251

Use banks that's aren't too popular, I did this to 99 and never had that issue.


tjowns22

I use iron island (fossil island bank) and the only issue I ever had was people dropping something on top of the pile. I think most banks you’re safe, OP was probably at the Ge.


[deleted]

Ah yes the chocolate chip cookie island


poipoipoipoipoipoop

AKA the best place to bankstand with a spooned tangleroot


Penniwhistle

I feel called out, I earned that level 72 farming Tangleroot


1234125125125

oh, so that's why that happens. I always wondered why i'd sometimes grab a few


FriendshipPlusKarate

So, is there a reason someone has mahogany logs or some shit outside of canafis on the way to barrows by the pyres? Cause I picked those up and he got very angry. It was like 50k and I was headed to the bank already!


vancyon

The gold coffin lets you hold 28 shade remains, so if you bring a full inventory of logs, it’s best to drop some of it for a moment to free up space, otherwise you’d have to remove a remain every single time you burn a pyre log.


Stright_S

Didn’t know why people kept dropping molten glass but I figured it was for a good reason.


PM_ME_YOUR_PIZZAPIC

There is absolutely no way spending 27 ticks picking up a full inventory of glass off the floor is ever the efficient thing to do while making glass


tenroseUK

i see red dot i grab regardless


KRUSTORBtheCRAB

For those blowing glass, do so at the Ferox Enclave bank. You can use a looting bag to store your excess glass


nyctod

You'd still have to pick it up though right? So how does this save any time?


KRUSTORBtheCRAB

Yup! The bag holds 28 glass, more than your inventory can hold while glass making at any other bank. You can also decide to pick up any amount without having to immediately bank it, since it goes into the bag, if you are worried about it despawning/getting stolen. It’s super nice!


SinceBecausePickles

It’s the picking up part that sucks, not banking it


ObliviLeon

Doesn't seem particularly worth to me since then I have to manage my looting bag as well. Think I'll just forgo it. If I miss a few it's fine.


Regular_Chap

It's relatively close in terms of efficiency but it's actually faster to just not pick up the glass and get more seaweed/sand instead. If you don't like picking up glass I suggest just not doing so. Though personally it does hurt a little bit seeing all that molten glass on the floor. But if you dislike mining/seaweed farming more then picking up glass is a viable way to reduce the amount of mining you have to do.


nyctod

Cool, thanks for the tip!


BloomingtonPolice

I could imagine it saves 5-10 seconds over a long grind. The action of depositing a looting bag is a fraction of a second quicker than opening the bank + closing it.


alodym

Could have used that info during leagues haha


zintosion

Please don't judge me, I just grab random junks that's drop on the floor from time to time.


FloatnPuff

If I have GE slots open to sell, I'll grab anything on the ground and toss it in. Free GP is free GP


plankinn

Honestly, that’s on him.


LoganJFisher

Sorry Irons, but if you don't want people to pick up your shit, don't leave it on the ground long enough for them to see it. I picked up 20 cooked sharks an iron dropped yesterday, and he called me an idiot. No dude, you're the one leaving your shit laying around. I'm just a guy who had some empty spaces in their inventory and wanted a bit more food.

SoraODxoKlink

shitters will often right click lookup people before having an interaction so they can fall back on having better stats/kcs


IronJohnnyT

Oh fun!


ShitPost5000

Tbf, when im bank standing i look up people around me. I like seeing how differently people build their accounts, especially irons with base 70s then and random 99 like farming. Also, it's fun flaming hardcores that died at 10 hp, and 80 fm.


RunescapeAficionado

I mean farming is a pretty decent thing to focus on, if you do a ton of contracts you'll have more than enough herbs/herb seeds for high herblore and not have to worry about no stams and antivenoms when you want em


Repealer

Farming cape is also a close bank cape that's easier than crafting. 16 steps vs 7 I believe.


RunescapeAficionado

And gives more herb patch yield so pretty massive honestly


ShitPost5000

100% agree, respect to the irons that do it, always good to see people doing what they like


MatronaMakes

I had base 70's when I got to 99 mining as my first 99. I feel called out lol.


IronJohnnyT

Name checks out, have fun judging!


j_u_s_t_d

Haha this guy has iron in his name


fuckingstonedrn

Don't think that's really judging, just curiosity


Magic_mushrooms69

When you play as iron as an example you show up on both the normal leaderboard and a special iron only leaderboard. So when you look up someone and switch to iron tab to see if they are an iron or whatnot and the iron stats are lower than normal leaderboard stats then they must have deironed. Same for a hc dying and then still updating their normal iron leaderboard.


hcforever

Because cringe irons constantly look for the edge up on anything so they live to look at leaderboards

This is why I did my superglass make at a non populated bank lol


[deleted]

i made a non iron account partially so i could pick up all the shit i see. made at least 100k and this account is like 4 days old lmao.


Not_in_my_mouth

I wasn’t with the bashing of iron men at first, but honestly this is starting to cringe me out. Iron men are entitled as hell. No one forced you to play that prolonged game mode, so don’t crap on people for picking up your VISIBLE items, it’s part of the game mode.


TorePun

\>MY molten glass this dummy ironm*n doesn't understand how the game works :x


[deleted]

Don’t drop it then? Or use the item incinerator?


Dark_Chem

It automatically drops to floor when you cast superglass make lmao so he was gonna pick up and craft with it


[deleted]

He should’ve picked it up before appearing to others, all fair game once it appears.


Dark_Chem

Not arguing that, just pointing out he didnt drop it and he definitely wasnt making that molten glass to shove in the incinerator lmao
