Members Only
Picking Up Flax:
1. Absolutely nothing is needed to be able to pick up flax. Go over to Camelot and go down to the Flax area where there's only flax there and start picking them up. Keep going back and forth to the bank.


(Area where you can find flax to pick up.)

2. Make sure your inventory is empty to make it quicker to get 1,000 flax. Once you have collected 1,000 flax, then go to the same bank which is nearby the flax area and sell your flax's for 100 gold coins each. A total of 100k is earned for just picking up some flax.

Spinning Flax into Bow Strings:
You must have a crafting level of 10 in order to spin flax. If you have a crafting level of 10, then you can start off by either purchasing 1k flax from someone or by picking them up. Buying these will make you save more time and at the same time still make profits. The profits are less though. Simply once you have your flax take them to the spinning wheel and spin them. Go back and forth doing this and after a few trips, you will be completed. Sell your bow strings for 180-200 each, ending you up with 180-200k profits. If you had bought the flax, then your profit will be 80-100k for spinning them.

Woodcutting (Maples):
1. Get a woodcutting level of 45 to cut maples.
2. Go down to the Camelot which has maple trees right across from it. These trees are very close to the bank so it won't take long to walk to the bank.
3. Cut 1,000 maple logs and sell them to other members for 80-100 each. Total will be 80k-100k for all of them!

Woodcutting (Magics):
1. To be able to start cutting magics, you will need a level of 75 which is the highest to cut any tree.
2. Take a rune axe and start cutting them. You can get bored off of cutting as it takes longer than yews to cut.
3. Cut 1,000 magic logs and sell them. Each log is worth 1k! That's a lot of money.
4. Once completed sell them at the bank to other members and earn 1,000,000 Gold coins!

Members/Non Members
Woodcutting (Willows):
1. Get a woodcutting level of 30 to cut willows.
2. Go down to Lumbridge and cut 1,000 willow logs. The bank is right next to you so this makes it quick and easy to store them up.
3. Once you have 1,000 willow logs, then go ahead and sell them for 30 coins each and easily get 30k gold!

Woodcutting (Yews):
1. After cutting so many logs and having your woodcutting level become 60, you can now cut Yew logs!
2. Get a rune axe and find somewhere where there is a Yew tree that has a bank right next to it to make the traveling time shorter.
3. Start cutting Yew trees to get some logs. You will need to collect a about 3,500 of them.
4. Once completed, take all these logs to the bank and sell them to the other members. You can sell all these for 1,000,000 gold coins! Yea, that is a lot of zeros.

Steel Bars:
1. Steel bars are used to make things such as armour. You are going to have a minimum of a mining level of 30 to be able to mine iron ores and coal.|
2. Start out by mining 2,000 coal since this is the hardest part. Once done with this, go ahead and start cutting 1,000 iron ores.
3. Take your iron ores and coal to the furnace and smelt them into steel bars. When completed, you should have a total of 1,000 steel bars.
4. Head over to a bank in Falador and sell each steel bar for 500 coins each! You should have a total of 500k when you sell all of them.

Combat:
There are plenty of different ways to make money by combat since there are a ton of things to fight. Try fighting the monsters that drops good items and then resell these items. Also, sell when you have a lot of that items. If you are fighting wizards and you keep getting runes, then keep fighting until you have about 500-1,000 runes of each. This will not only benefit you in getting more money but also in your combat levels also.

Mining Iron Ores:
1. Locate the iron rocks in Varrock and start mining them.
2. Mine as much as 1,000 iron ores. This may take time but it's worth it at the end.
3. When your done, take them to one of the bank in Varrock and sell them for 50 gold coins each bringing you a total of 50,000 gold once sold.

Collecting Seeds:
1. Take an axe and find willow or yew trees. You can pick others but these are more effective when looking for seeds.
2. Now keep cutting trees and you will find out that bird nests usually falls out of the trees.
3. Store all you're logs and seeds in the bank. Once you have a lot of them, then sell them all. Seeds are worth a lot so search before you actually sell them to make full profits.
4. Not only will you make money from the seeds but also in the logs too.
(Seeds are worth around 1k-200k each.)

Making Armour:
1. Create as much bars as you can of any kind. The best possible that you can make would always be the best one to create.
2. Take them to Anvil and smith you're bars into armour. Trying making the armours in sets so that it can be easier to sell to people.
3. The prices will vary depending on what kind of armour you make, but if you do make a lot of sets then you can end up with a good junk of money.

These are a few ways that you can make money on Runescape when you are not a member. If you are a member, then you can read part two of this article for ways to make money on a members world.

Second Article (Real Money)
You see a lot of sites selling Runescape gold on the Internet nowadays. It opens up a lot of opportunities for players too, instead of players grinding and using a lot of time making gold pieces in-game to buy the next best weapon, or armour, they could just buy gold online â€" much quicker, much more efficient.
This also opens up opportunities to players to make some real cash too.

These sites also buy gold pieces of players, so if you find a way of making a lot of gold pieces, then you could sell them to these sites and make some profit. Merchanting is a quick and easy way of making money (check our merchanting guide), but it does require some initial investment.

Runescape gold sites normally buy gold pieces in millions, from around $2.99+ per million. This sounds like rubbish money for a million gold pieces, but it’s actually pretty easy to make a lot of gold once you reach your few hundred thousand gold pieces.

Not only to these Runescape gold sites buy gold pieces, but they also buy characters as well. If you have a character that is of a high level in a lot of skills, then you could probably get a decent price for it on one of these sites. The best thing to do is offer your character for sale, and see which site will offer the most for it. The problem with this is selling your character like this is actually against Runescape’s TOS, so they can ban you for it.

I would recommend you use merchanting in order to make a lot of GP (when I say a lot, I mean in the hundred millions), then sell around half of it to the Runescape gold sites, and then use the other half to make more money again through merchanting.

If you get it right, you can actually make quite a bit out of this method, but mastering merchanting can be a little tricky at times. Sometimes, you can’t find the item you want at the right price, or no one buys your items at the price you set for a long while â€" don’t worry, tweak your sales prices until you get the right amount where you can easily buy and sell items when merchanting.

One tip when making money in Runescape is to be wary when selling your gold to people. Always find a reputable Runescape gold merchant before selling to them.
Have patience and good luck in your money-making adventures!

widdop5 Runescape Auto Talker Jul 14th, 2008 6:26:14 am - Subscribe
If you have seen someone stand and repeat the same words over and over exactly as the first, most likely they are using a Runescape Auto Talker. The Runescape Auto Talker is a macro, also known as a bot, which takes control of your account and makes it do things, in this case type messages. Another example of a bot would be the Runescape auto miner. It takes control of your Runescape account and continuously clicks on the ore rock that you specify. Any sort of macro is illegal in Runescape, Jagex has built their own secret bots to "crawl" Runescape and look for suspicious activity. If the evidence is too great, they will act on it.



I do not in anyway support hacks, cheats, macros, bots, what ever you want to call it. I think that it is wrong, evil, and it makes the people who actually work for what they get feel worthless. You may think your not hurting anything by cheating, but what if everyone cheated and got all their skills level 99 and they maxed out their level? They would then sell the things that they acquired cheating, which would make the Runescape economy drop terribly. Then everything would become practically worthless, and people would own quite a few pairs of dragon armor, and it would not matter because there would be no challenges, then the Runescape population would die, so Jagex wouldn't get any income, and Runescape - runescape-blog.com would be forced to shut down. So think about that.

So now, let's look at what the Runescape Auto Talker does exactly. The Runescape Auto Talker is a program that will type the same message at a rate such as three seconds. So if we were to give it the words "Hey! Check out this article your reading about the Runescape Auto Talker!" and set it for every 10 seconds, anyone in chat range would get that message every 10 seconds. People often use this for advertising their items in the Grand Exchange, or to advertise a website.

Some auto talkers have built in special effects such as glow, scroll, wave, and flash. According to how it has been scripted, they can do anything that you could sitting there typing it yourself. However, if you were to have it at three seconds with the special effects, no doubt your threat level greatly increases - A perfect sentence with the same effects. Very suspicious, don't you think?



If you are seriously still interested in a Runescape Auto Talker, then a simple Google search will find a one. Beware, however, because many of these so-called Runescape Auto Talkers are really just keyloggers. A keylogger is a form of virus that tracks any keys that the person types. This way they can get not only your Runescape account, but also other personal information like your credit card information. They might also contain other viruses. People have designed some viruses to go into the computer's logged files and steal any information. Its almost like a more advanced keylogger, but instead of logging keys that are being typed, it goes in and steals keys that have already been typed.



If you are still going to get a Runescape Auto Talker, I suppose I cannot stop you, but I really do not see a point in it. The same time you spend sitting there with the Runescape Auto Talker on; you could be sitting and typing it. No hack, cheat, glitch, bot, macro, or any other cheating device is worth it. You turn one on to test it, you come back, and your account has been banned. The consequences are always worse than the gains.
