Okay so I decided to create this guide with the hopes of it becoming a sticky thread for all newbies to the online slots world, to read as we deal with the same topics repeatedly and the same answers/advice are given repeatedly. Not that we do not want to help, but these would prevent you from getting into situations before its too late, or blaming casinos when you were in the wrong.
Signing up or Registration
Registration – Please carefully read the general terms and conditions about every "Right" the casino has and please note that you accepted these terms upon signing up, which means you are saying you are okay with it and agree with what the casino state about what they can and cannot do.

• No Deposit bonuses/Signup bonus – Many players are still NDB (No Deposit Bonus) hunters and register simply for these reasons. Please read the NDB/Signup Bonus terms carefully to make sure your country is eligible to receive the NDB/Signup bonus. We had many players getting upset about this factor and then end up closing their accounts immediately out of anger which leads to SE (Self Exclusion) at times. which I will address later in this thread. However, we do have instances where a casino does not list the eligible countries that can or cannot receive the NDB/Signup bonuses.
• More than one player in 1 house Hold – Many casinos only allow one player per house/IP address to register at a casino. You can ask a casino if you and your partnesibling who stays together can both signup and some casinos would give the "Ok". Just make sure you have this in written confirmation via email or something and not live chat.

Claiming Bonuses
Read the bonus terms carefully before claiming any bonuses and look for the following pointers when reading the bonuses rules:

• Wagering – Many casinos have increased their wagering on bonuses lately which makes bonus wagering very difficult to complete these days. Decide whether the wagering attach to the bonus is high or low for you since you know your game play and strategies. Many factors can influence whether you will be able to meet wagering, which is the x amount of wagering, game providers availability and deposit amount just to name a few. Also note that wagering for "certain countries" are higher than others. For me personally I think wagering between x35 – x50 on the "Bonus" amount "Only" is reasonable and fair.
• Max Bet – 99% of casinos have a max bet rule in place when claiming a bonus. Note what the max bet is for the specific casinos as it can range anything from 1 – 5 euro/$ per Spin. Deposit methods can affect the max bet as well as some casinos limit the max bet rule between 1 – 2 euro per spin for deposits using e-wallets, however that same casinos allow a max bet up to 5 euro per spin for credit card/Alternative deposits. Even though a casino state the max bet rule another tricky rule in the terms that we tend to miss is the coin value. Some casinos state that the max "Coin domination/value" should be $0.20 or $0.50 per spin which means if you want to bet higher you would need to adjust the "Level" portion in the slot if the coin domination/value limit is reached according to the terms. If you breach the Max bet rule and it is stated in their terms, you do not have a case, period. There are some casinos who you can explain your situation if it was a mistake and they do sometimes make exceptions.
• Deposit methods – Many casinos lately have restricted the claiming of bonuses using e-wallet deposit methods such as Neteller, Skrill etc. Note they mention these 2 as they are most popular, but that also means any other form of e-wallets are not eligible to claim bonuses. I have seen a lot of players complain that they did not receive the bonus simply because they did not read the terms before claiming the bonus and the deposit has already been made. Also make sure you deposit using your own card, do not use your parents or any other siblings credit card to make deposits as this would cause a problem during verification which in the end results in to winnings not being paid out.
• Deposit Methods Additional Info – Many deposits are available from Casinos or let's say most casinos have the same deposit methods available, however the country that you reside in has the influence on what deposit methods are available and the same counts for withdrawals. So, for instance if AskGamblers website state deposit by phone which is "Boku" is available at that specific casino it does not mean that it will be available for all players, as that is depending on your country. Deposit by phone is mostly available for the UK players basically as an example.
• Max Cash-Out – Many players claim bonuses and after they complete wager, they tend to withdraw immediately. Some players are left with substantial amounts only to find out they can only get x2 the bonus amount (Casinos like "Viks" casino and "Quasar Gaming" have this rule) or x10 their deposit. I understand this is frustrating and upsetting, but the problem is with the player itself. Stop blaming casinos because you could not do the simplest thing in the world which is just take 5 minutes to read the bonus terms.
• Restricted games – Please check which games are allowed and not allowed to be played with bonus funds. Some casinos have a feature where bonus money is not even visible on the restricted games, but other casinos bonus money will show on restricted games. In many instances these would not lead to confiscation of winnings, it just that it would not count towards wagering. They also have a term where they would say that bets place on all "Other" games other that "Slot machines" will be deemed in violation of the terms and condition and your bonus winnings will be voided – So watch out for this one.
• Double up feature – The only thing to say here is that this will not counts towards wagering.
• Cashable and Non-Cashable bonuses – This one is another tricky one, some people call it a "Sticky bonus". This just means where you receive the bonus you can use it to place bets and for wagering purposes, but the bonus amount can never be withdrawn. I find this term ridiculous and always avoid this type of bonuses.
• Bonus Abuse – This is a very complex/broad subject but mention the basic ones (Thanks for forum members tips which I included on this one), the rest you can do your own research about the rest associated with bonus abuse as we all have different opinions
• Bonus per player, per account, per IP address etc. If you take that same bonus twice or more times, using different accounts under your name, then it's an abuse.
• Claiming free spins offers – Deposit to get free spins and withdrawing deposit after claiming free spins but continue to play free spins is also some form of bonus abuse.
• Accumulating bonus rounds and start playing them when your bonus balance reach zero, and you win those money as real cash.
• Anything you can think of that disadvantages the house (Casino).
• Bonus wagering period – This never really is a problem, but just make sure you complete you bonus wagering with the set time frame the casino provided. This can range anything from 3 – 30 days otherwise winnings will be voided.

There are other bonus terms that I have not mentioned but I think the above ones are the most important as these could affect you in terms of confiscation of your winnings should you breach any of them.
Verification
This is pretty much standard for a casino to ask for some form of Identification, proof of address and proof of deposit when requesting a withdrawal. Depending on the amount win, some casinos might not need documents, however when a substantial amount has been won additional verification or security checks might be done which means a longer withdrawal time frame. Verification or KYC is necessary, however I feel when casinos ask for selfies with your ID next to you etc. in my opinion is just ridiculous. Also, I have noticed some casinos requesting your source of income to see where you get the money to make deposits etc. This seems standard and you would need to do it to get your withdrawal, however all of us have different opinions about this verification procedure.
Withdrawals
Many casinos have different withdrawal time frames and when you accept the general terms and conditions you have to a abide by them, by this I mean stop being impatient and complain that the casinos withdrawal time frames are the worst etc. As you knew this before you started playing provided you have read the terms and condition. You decided to deposit and play so then wait for your money, eventually it will come unless you breached some rule, or the casino is a rogue casino.
Here are some of the tips you should note when it comes to withdrawals at casinos:

• Verification – This is standard procedure and you have to do this if the casino request it.
• Time-frames – This one I feel can be interpreted in many ways but let me give you my version of how I View things. When a casino says e-wallets 0 – 1 or 0 – 24 hours. This means that the casinos use that time-frame to process your withdrawal and after it being processed your money should be instantly available. Credit cards that state 3 – 7 business days and this is where some newbies get this wrong – This simply state the time frame they take to process the payment to your card, it does not mean you will get your money within 3 – 7 days, however this is possible. Prepare yourself for the longest waiting period to avoid becoming impatient and upset – So if a casino says 3 – 7 days expect to get it in 10 days max, however you can get it within 4 days, but sometimes casinos just stretch it to process it on the last day possible with the hopes you would reverse the withdrawal and continue to play. This technique of casinos sometimes works. So, if they process your withdrawal it can take another 3 – 5 days to hit your account based on your location and the banks in your country as they have internal controls with foreign currency. There are however hiccups with payment providers/processors etc. but these are at times out of the casinos control. My best is advice is "Patience".
• Reversing Withdrawals – With the timeframes explanation I just gave above and being impatient, players tend to reverse their withdrawals. They continue playing and end up losing their winnings. Stop blaming casinos as this is your own fault that you Lost the funds. You made the decision to reverse the withdrawal. If you really need to play, make a deposit at another casino or sister website and play there while you patiently wait for you withdrawal. Some casinos have the lock feature, so lock down your withdrawal so you do not reverse the withdrawal or play at other casinos which has quicker withdrawal time frames of 0 – 1 hour instead of days. The key here is "Patience".

Self-Exclusion
Self-Exclusion is a big thing these days and most cases substantial amounts are involved that are being confiscated. There are at times very little that us forum members or even AskGamblers can do when a player self-excluded and played at a sister website or similar, as we know the result and of course the house is kind of right. However, I think it's bad that a casino only realizes the self-exclusion portion on a player profile once it reaches withdrawal stage, because I feel they should have something in place that can detect that you self-excluded upon registration or before you even make your first deposit. People with gambling problems tend to self-exclude but the alternative is to read this guide - https://www.askgamblers.com/forum/topic/2152-sos-i-am-addicted-to-gambling-what-to-do/ . My advice is to keep your casino account open and do not play there anymore, because even if you request a permanent account closure, some casinos tend to self-exclude you without you knowing it and this would cause problems in future since you opened another account at their sister website or something.

I have been using this app for two months. I have invested £1000 into the market and last time I counted my profits I’m £400 in profit from my cryptocurrency investments.
Cryptocurrency is in a massive bull market and there is a lot of opportunities for massive gains to position yourself for a comfortable future. I have personally have an alt coin go up X10 in two weeks!
This app was super easy to start investing into this market for a complete beginner, as it is super easy to buy on the app and they have really good altcoins to invest into.
I’m a long term investor but I’m super happy I’ve have such high short term gains also 😁 especially with what is happening in this current COVID pandemic and potential economic hardship and potential devaluation of the current currency that may follow.
I mean personally, I think digital currency is where the future is heading and to invest in it now before everyone else catches on is a no brainer... hence you are almost guaranteed to make money (but there are always risks involved with investing, so please do your own research).
With this specific app you get $20 bonus extra with your first $200 deposit but you can use other expert exchanges as well depending upon your experience level.
Happy to help anyone through the process... so comment below if you need any extra help or encouragement 😊✨

📰📜Story📜📰:
I've been scatter-brained, ire-filled, soul-searching and lost after a 7-day Degen Marathon that brought a shit load of misfortunes. I used to hate social media, but I've learned how to wield the soc. med. sword like a fucking Degen Jedi. I'm going to promote an honest cause where I seek to be victorious in the end. Just you watch you fucking doubters, haters, blockers, scammers. How much grit and intellect would the average fucking person have to endure what I've gone through in the last fucking 48 hours and still come out alive with a sense of greater purpose?
Had about $400 to $500 in righteously earned bonus dollars earned through impossible grinding degen mission that came pretty close to accomplishing (91%).
I would have had some imaginary >$600 BR by now, but instead the roll-over deadline caused the entire deposit to be forfeited and I manage to salvage some $100.
Due to a bonus rollover scheme, 80U of my balance was stuck in bonuses and if I fail to accomplish the roll-over by the deadline, it all gets forfeited.
With a $500-$600 balance, I could have somewhere at $900-1000 by now after a 20-2 W-L record on European football on Wednesday.
How did I get that record yesterday, by sampling a bunch of solid pre-game picks and live betting using my own fucking brain. I consult with the finest in capping. With $10-$20 bet sizes, That would have put me up maybe $15x16 = +$240 at minimum. $1000 was the imaginary bank roll. As of today, betting with $1 units, after Monday-Wednesday's successful run, while Tuesday was a -$50 blip, I converted $100 to about close to $200 (40U).
🤪🤑Psycho Betting🤑🤪:
I learned the art of psycho betting. Taking some well-advised 10U and 30U psycho bets that put my bankroll up a significant amounts, but a big loss does the opposite. Yesterday I manage to hit 4 grand 30U slams in a row, however many on juiced lines, so each $30 bet one returns about $15-20. Thus my bankroll grew nearly +100 units and sits close to $200 from the initial $100 I manage to salvage after that bonus robbery.
If you want to fucking learn the art of Psycho-Betting to the extremest and be successful at it, fucking put in $100 in Bovada (remember to use money that you can afford to lose) and get that fucking bonus for the purpose of looting the bookies in a successful vengeance scheme. This guy is a fucking Artillery: https://twitter.com/GoTimeCappers.
Fucking hit more than 4x30U grand slams yesterday and some 10-20U cherries on top. I tailed his free picks and other through consultation [Haha fucking reddit/sportsbook will probably ban me for promoting another tout, :)].Of course with my $1.5U size on a crippled bank roll, I cannot grow it to as much as I wanted to using GoTime's techniques. I would have been at another +$400 if I had $6 units. It's a high risk and high reward system, but if you are confident with your picks you go big on it. If you lose it, then you grind back with smaller 10U and 20U bets to try to get back to part to be able to do another 30U bet. The goal is to be like 2-1, 3-0 on 30U grand slams a day. There is some level of sustainability and back up plans to execute in case the 30U bet did not work out. It is very improbable for you to lose 10 in a row on well researched picks that the experts in the community have common agreement on. A lot of the times, the lines shift to reward you less for the pick since big money is already on the pick.

!!!!!DISCLAIMER: DO NOT READ BEYOND HERE IF YOU HATE MATH OR HAVE AN IQ OF < 89!!!!!
Use the chart on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IQ_classification
Here is a Nice Calculation to do:
📚📑💻Stats 301 Question in Degenalytics💻📑📚**:**
Lastly I asked anyone in the past few days to do a Stats 301 question with Degenalytics Context: To fucking determine the probability that an avg Joe with a $100+100 Bonus Bank-roll or $500 + 250B bank roll can actually pull off the $3000/$7500 grind in some number of N months betting with supposedly 2 full months of real sports (N-2) getting Obliterated by COVID-19. I want you to give me an analytical calculation or a simulation of your work and give me all the possible scenarios.
Then give the final verdict of if that number converges to 0.000% or 100.00% that the average Joe would succeed his false-hope mission for a successful rollover.
In other words think of it like this: If the average joe bets his entire bank roll 12 or more times (roll-over is not x10 because of bookie juice), what is the probability that he will still end up in the green? Also assign a tilt probability factor that the Average Joe would go on some emotional tilt spree to end up bust again? And make it even harder by eliminating 2-3 full months of real sports (N-2.5) and having to bet on Bovada's limited shitty ass lines and shitty live odds.
If you fucking want to eliminate the -2.5 months, then allow the average joe the freedom to bet on N months of e-sports [hahah] and see where that goes.
I had a bad experience betting on e-sports for 2 months and only end up -15-20U. I'm not saying that I lost because I suck at e-sports betting or I tailed the wrong people. The Bovada lines are super shitty and limited. Most of the time, on live esports, all you see are dashed out lines as if they fucking know what the rigged result is and prevent people from doing hedge bets or try to bet opposite spreads when they are winning to guarantee an insurance 1-1 with minimal damage incurred to their bank-roll. The live betting experience on e-sports on the Bovada platform is so bad that you are guaranteed to lose in the long run. Fucking hell Bodog/Bovada even offered me a $250 deposit on 100% bonus after the Rudy Gobert day in Mid March. They advertised the joys and wonders of getting rich betting off esports.
I was so tempted to deposit, however I kind of over-slept and missed out on the dead-line so they closed the bonus offer. Pretty good relief that I did not fuck-up my real credit card and bank account by falling for that scam again. It was an accidental Grace of God moment to fucking avoid that E-sports deposit marketing scam.
BONUS Questions:
A: Calculate the number of months needed and number of successful bets required for the conservative degen 1u bettor to grind out the roll-over playing
$2.00 tug of war with the bookie.
B: Calculate the odds that a professional capper who knows how to adjust unit sizes (1u-5u), do parlays once a while, will succeed the roll-over in some
N-2.5 months or add some e-sports to have fun to keep the N factor.
C.1: Calculate the conditional probabilities for the bettor succeeding in the mission if on the first few days of betting:
i) He loses bet 1 for about $20.
ii) Wins bet 1 for about $20 to earn $17.5.
iii) Goes on a 3 game losing streak
iv) 5 game losing streak
v) Positivity case: The guy got lucky and nearly doubled his bank roll on a decent run from day. Up +100U or $200. [I'm sure that out of bad discipline the average Joe would still go -200U in the long run with a pretty high probability.]
C.2: Determine the mathematical scheme on how the Bookies can use your first few losses to eventually put you in a 60+:40- (Greater than 60% locked in bonus, less than 40% of your deposited money). Bonus:Locked funds ratio.
The Jinx-King answer: It converges to zero [hahaha], but I really am interested in know what other scenarios math and stats people have come up. And your mathematical approaches and formulae used to generate possible scenarios and probabilities. But I think it is safe to say that for the average Joe,the answer is 0.00% success rate. Bodog/Bovada knows this exactly and refuses to put a hiatus on the roll-over deadline. Instead they keep it going so that people can try to wager on e-sports and lose their entire bank roll. They are only interested it getting 100% of your locked funds so that they can buy expensive cruises, yachts, beach mansions, resort packages, etc in Aruba or some other tropical place. Where you got millions of desperate Americans, Canadians in struggling economies with lost jobs and zero positive cash-flow. About 10% or so or perhaps even more deposit money into off-shore gambling websites hoping they can roll-over their bank-roll some ridiculous number of times and make a few bucks to put food on the table.
In fact, it makes matters worst being jobless, having zero cash flow and having locked funds in scamming bookies. If you are not good at casino or sports-betting games, you would have:
A: Lose your entire deposit for failing to grind it out properly.
B: Not grind it out on time on whatever dead-line the roll-over was.
C: Even if you did successfully grind that shit out using conservative 1u betting and play $2 tug of war with the bookie, you will end up just wasting your time grinding it out for hours and hours on end. It would have been better for you to fucking find a job at some farm helping out with harvesting crops or work in meat plants so that food does not go to waste. I bet you I can make more money than your $2 tug of war in one a day picking off cans and bottles off the streets in some exercise walking/running/biking + collection routine then selling it to the recycling center for $0.05-0.25 a unit. Trust me at my university, I spot maybe about 50-200 empty/partially driven cans and bottles left on desks, lecture halls, the floor, libraries, work areas, etc. Supposed that I harvested that shit, I would be making $5-$20 a day collecting it all and going to the recycling center once every week.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⚖Conclusions⚖:
The fucking company knows this COVID-19 closure shit and want to use it to their advantage to continue to rob millions of their customers. Last week, I tried to call customer service, chat help, email, etc. and management has spoken to plead my case to delay the roll-over dead-line in a pro-rated time frame so that customers with locked balances can resume betting with their full balance when Game 1 of any Major League Sport actually returns. They give me the same bull-shit over and over saying they decline my request. For what reason?

1. The terms and conditions written in fine print for accepting the bonus conversion challenge. "Rules are Rules."
2. They were aware my deadline of June 22 at 19:23 ET was approaching soon. They knew I was on a mission to salvage my bank roll before they yank out the 60-75U trapped in bonus balances (i.e. Ghost money). By the end of it, I realize I made a foolish mistake. Most of my wins were just from bonus money and I was rewarded $0.00 on righteous wins on expired bonuses.

Therefore Bonus money only earns bonus money which put my entire bank-roll in a 80:20 ratio where the bookies control 80U in ghost money. By the end of the roll-over deadline, they get to yank out 80U of my balance at the deadline and left me with about $100 (20U) bank roll to regrind.

1. They knew I was winning consistently making solid picks.

During my 110 hour marathon over the brutal grind of losing more than 70 hours of work, leisure and recreation; 35 hours of sleep; to a fucking impossible grind of trying to roll over some 60% of $7500 on sports I have little knowledge of capping (i.e. E-sports, Table Tennis, European football) after a few days of studying the game, I was picking up my stride to grind it to 91%. They fucking knew that if I had another day to grind, they would be coughing up +$600-800 of withdrawable balance to my account.

Bio:😎📚🎓👨‍🎓
I am a Fucking PHD Candidate (2-6 months from graduating and not having to pay another round of BS tuition) who does a shitload of mathematics, statistics, simulations, mathematical physics, wrote scientific papers. I've won T.A. Awards, Government/Provincial/Institutional level scholarships, Conference presentations, with even Undergrad honors back in the day. DM me if you need a fucking CV to prove my fucking credentials.
Why am I able to write a lot of shit? Because my fucking brain operates on some max level Intel Xeon chip on overclock mode and I cannot do much to shut it down other than going to sleep. They only way is to write articles that I think might benefit the community.
I have a crazy interest in sports and Degen'ing. I love to fucking put action on sports games, be proud about making the correct calls on the outcome of games before it happens, and then boast to my circle of competitive friends about who's the fucking Boss. As tabboo as society think us degens are, I think this absolute BS. There is a pure enjoyment in watching sports and having action on it. It is nice to get paid beer money to cover a round for your buddies, or earn that rent money over a successful night of betting on shit you actually enjoy watching. Fuck I rather make $300 for one evening of enjoying sports rather than working a 9-5 dull job to try to afford rent/mortgage. If I can fucking pay off all my monthly expenses in 3 fucking successful nights of 3 hr sessions of sports matches, that would be ideal. I would take the lather over a 9-5 rat-race grind.
Overall I am "PRO" in the debate for local single sports betting bookies to be established in Canada. Get these fucking scamming off-shore books like bodog/Bovada who contribute only contribute "Bagel" to the Canadian Economy, but instead make it worst by scamming the masses of hard working or desperate people to leak out some sum of billions of dollars of national GDP. Probably the same applies to all American States, that people should not have to cough up their hard earned $$$$ to off-shore scamming bookies. I shall write an article about this later to justify my arguments later.
Ultimately I my goal is to obliterate or negate the influence of all the cons, scamming bookies, and false touts out there who are just interested in stealing people's $$$. To write out full studies on exposing their schemes in an objective lens.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calling me out: (Think I cannot track these pussy downvotes? I know you cowards 😂😜😎)
If you think I'm full of BS, then send me a personal DM to have a 1v1 argument the same way that Stephen A debates sports with Max Kellerman. You can downvote me or flame me with empty hate talk all you want on public threads. But don't be a fucky pussy by avoiding a debate with me. Trust me, I'm going to win and be the last one to state a real point that you will have no comeback for [haha]. Lastly, if you are open to discuss or debate with me about some issues, do some resarch/exploration, betting strategies, etc., I would love your collaboration in some projects I got going on.
Ultimately, I should help every honest worker strive towards Degen success or if not, just to purely enjoy putting action on sports games. If you are too full of yourself, then you are on your own, I bid thee adieu, and wish you all the best. However you will be absolutely declined to all services and counsel I work to provide to friends for free.

Turns out many people cannot withdraw anything out of Bovada/bodog due to some website glitches. Will try to recover a bankroll to attempt a withdrawal, however I am likely to have the same issues too. They will make some lame excuse to not give me a cheque. Definitely no point of pursuing anything in bovada/bodog if they refuse to give you withdrawables. The goal is to get their website off outta here. As well as get them out of advertisements. They definitely pulled off some "Get the fucking money and run scheme" and you will likely not see your money again. GG

Happy to help anyone through the process... so comment below if you need any extra help or encouragement 😊✨

Note this applies specifically to the current, freemium mobile version, as I notice a lot of posts showing up about he same things over and over. Everyone is welcome to add their thoughts. This also aims to cover some of the differences that have made the strategy guide in the wiki page outdated for this game.

1. If you are just starting out, I recommend uninstalling and installing v2.5.89 instead. It is basically the same game as the current one, but without many of the frustrations that lead people to rage-quit. Everything is unlocked with in-game gold instead of overpriced diamonds and quests and battles give fair amounts of xp and gold that keep the game moving instead having you grind endlessly.

So now that that is out of the way. If you decide that you still want to play this version from the get go here are the actual tips:

1. Possibly the biggest difference between this version and all others is that spells can crit. Spells are defined here as any skill with a static number as opposed to a %. There are some exceptions to this however. Namely DoT spells, such as Druid's Vines. Now while spell crits deal double damage the same as physical crits, they don't trigger any crit items (including weapons); so no mass sd from a Thieve's Knives.
   
2. While the Daily Dungeon says it's level 15, it actually scales up and DOWN to your level. This means the actual dungeon will become shorter or longer, you will encounter different enemies and the rewards will be higher or lower accordingly. For comparison, The lowest level I went into the daily was about level 5 and at that point it's comparable to Nearby Cave in difficulty with the final reward being about 5-9k gold and 5 diamonds. On the other hand, on my highest run the daily had around 10+ floors full of end game enemies and the reward was around 30k+ gold and 20 diamonds.
   
3. While in the topic of the Daily Dungeon. Here is the Diamond farming trick. Start by doing the daily as normal, the trick happens once you kill the boss. Get your rewards as normal, but stop at the screen where you get the diamonds. This is always the last reward and tapping again will take you back to town. Instead force close the game. When you restart you will be outside of the boss' room with all your rewards and you can rinse and repeat as needed. Note this is also a good way of making gold.
   
4. Camping in this version fully restores your stats before you get ambushed. (You get ambushed if everyone in your party fails the camp roll). This is a great way to recover while grinding. Do note, there is no camping in dungeons, so make sure to bring plenty of food/potions.
   
5. Specifically for people just starting out, gold is scarce at early levels so pay attention to what equipment you actually need. For example, weapons without spell damage bonuses do nothing for spells. So you could forego the weapons for your spellcasters in favor of much cheaper shields. As for your fighters, do note beginner trinkets have the same or more damage as weapons for a fraction of the cost (ex. Sword (cheapest 1h weapon with 30 dmg) costs 610g, while Spiked Ring costs 460g). Same story with food, buying 2 of a lower item is more economical than 1 of the next level (ex. carrot 400/400, costs 160, compares to apple 200/200, which costs 70). Of course, the only issue with this is that you have to food between fights, as healing in a pinch will be almost useless.
   
6. Gold and Diamonds are shared between all your save files. This is specifically noteworthy in this version thanks to the whole Daily grinding thing. Basically it means you can have your main save and another living in the daily for when you need gold/diamonds. And the rewards are so bad in this version that you will want a team in the daily asap. You'll want to take your first team into it at around level 3-4. You'll probably want to clear out the dungeon a few times at lvl 4 so you can gear up before leveling up. At that level enemies are lvl 3-6 (you'll get around 3500g and 5 diamond). At Lvl 5 you get a new tier where enemies are 6-9, a fowlbear as a boss at that level is pretty hard (here you'll get around 4200g and 10 diamonds). After a while, I recommend redoing the daily at around lvl 15-20; this is where you start getting some decent gold. The highest tier I found for diamonds was 20 per run, can't remember the level, but I believe it was 20-25, so once you find that you can probably just stick to it.
   
7. On that note, unlocks also persist between saves. I've seen this question asked about the Life and Energy Scarabs a few times. Once unlocked, you get a set of each in every save file. Likewise, classes only need to be unlocked once and then you can use them in any save.
   
8. This is more of a pet peeve of mine. When looking at character builds, don't just copy a build from the get go because people say its good. Try to educate yourself on the mechanics behind it and what it needs to be good. I see this with popular builds like the SD Ninja and Crit Barb. In those examples, both rely on gimmicks that make them better for late game builds and near useless early game.
   
9. Like gold, Diamonds are scarce and you'll have to grind a long time to get any for of decent amount of them, so make sure to spend them wisely. Generally, I would recommend the expansions first as they give extended game play and a higher level cap to skills (+3 per expansion unlocked). Do note that the lowest level expansion is 15, while the other 2 are end game additions. So if you plan to grind diamonds before getting to level 30+ then you can pick up other stuff before the expansions. The unlockable players and classes are ok. I recommend leaving the players until the end unless you really want another player with 2 blue dice as neither of them have particularly good passives. Exchange student just has an exp bonus and book worm helps fill up the bestiary faster, but this version has you grind so much that you really don't need her. The classes are decent and provide different play options, but nothing the originals can't do. Druid is almost an exclusively late game class, Psion has the potential of being the highest damage caster thanks to it's passive receiving all the usual damage bonuses and it has the only skill that adds confusion and Warlock has life transfer. The scarabs are decent items for longer dungeon runs, but otherwise unnecessary if you carry enough food. And finally, the game room, this is probably where you wanna spend your diamonds if not getting expansions or a particular class you might wanna try; beware though, this is a huge diamond sink.
   
10. So you did your daily grind and ended up with a ton of diamonds, welcome to the game room. Before you do anything, try to find out about any bugs. The most notable is that the weapon rack is always active at max level even if you never buy it. Other than that, most things in the game room are fairly straight forward. Some noteworthy items that may not be as obvious are the
    

Go Set (turns adjacent enemy attacks like knives and smoke bomb into full party aoes),
Dice Collection (increases the racial dice bonuses and you can never have enough dice),
Bamboo Yoga Mat (I believe resistance rolls count for traps in dungeons as well as status effects, will need confirmation though),
TV Set (not sure if it got changed for this version, but the bonus to consumable also affected exp bonuses from mushrooms),
Blinds (Lowering enemy resists is probably not as effective, but it might be helpful for higher level enemies and bosses)
Rock-Paper-Scissors Machine (My personal favorite in this version. While fairly gimmicky on its own, if you manage to pick up a Magic Carp then maxing this will give that character +150% dmg (the biggest multiplier you can get without cheating or paying))

1. Here is the 'cheat' section, You can use this at your discretion.

11.1 Infinite buff time. Not really infinite, but they will last for a long time. All you have to do is manually change the time on your phone to whatever time in the future, get the buffs from opening chests (I think there's 12 total). Save/Quit, change your time back to normal and now you should have really long buffs.
11.2 Item Dupe. Just a disclaimer, this trick works by lagging out the game, so it might be difficult to do if you have a newer phone. One way to do that is to fill up your storage with as much junk as you can; the more items you throw in there the slower it becomes. Next fill out your inventory with the following: the item you want to dupe, any consumable in multiples of 10 that's not already in storage (it has to be any item that can be moved in 10's. While the minimum is 10, having more is another way to cause a bit of lag, but be sure the amount is always divisible by 10), random items to fill out the rest of the inventory (not sure if this is actually required, but this is just the way I learned it). Not that you have your items ready, Save and quit. This is to reset item placement in the storage. Once you're back in the game deposit your items in the following order: first the consumable, followed by the dupe target, then the rest in any order. At this point I like to close the storage and reopen it, let it load up then find the items that should be in the order that you stored them. I like to tap the dupe target before selecting the consumable (again, not sure if it's necessary, but it's the ritual I do). Finally, just spam the 'x10' button on the consumable. If done properly, your inventory will have the consumable, x10+ of the dupe target and the dupe target will still be in your storage. You can keep withdrawing the one in the storage infinitely until you reset the game. Note, don't place the duped items back in storage until after you reset the game or you will lose them. Once you're happy with the amount you go simply save and quit, restart and now your items will behave normally (you can place them in storage if you want).
​
Anyway, that's it for now. I might add to this list if I come across something else later.

Deadman Mode (DMM) is a game mode only available on w345, separate from the rest of the game. When you log onto w345, you'll start on a new profile separate from your normal one. It's basically a super high-stakes pk server—but really, only about half of the players actively pk. You earn exp in all stats faster than in the normal game, but risk losing banked items upon PvP death, as well as exp upon skulled death.

The Complete Newcomers' Guide to DMM w345
-–———–– -–——–– -–——–– -–——–– -–———––
​

STARTING OUT:

​

• Tutorial Island — You can skip Tutorial Island by speaking to Skippy in the very beginning, right after designing your character. When leaving the island, you'll be given the option of teleporting to Lumbridge, Varrock, Falador, East Ardougne, or the Gnome Stronghold. Most players choose Varrock.

​

• Your first 12 hours — Immediately upon leaving Tutorial Island, you'll have 12 hours of protection from PvP + increased exp rates. During these 12 hours, you'll earn x10 exp in all skills (as opposed to x5 eventually, after the 12hr period). It's recommended that you obtain some gear asap & start training your combat immediately. Many players choose to train on Lava Dragons in the deep wildy, as they are safespottable & their bones can be offered at the Chaos Temple hut for crazy exp. Some players also do a quick run-through of the Security Stronghold early on, for easy starter gp. You can probably get some starter gear by just asking around the GE, as DMM players are usually more than willing to help out newcomers. Otherwise, make some gear from scratch as quickly as possible, via Mining -> Smithing, or Woodcutting -> Fletching, etc. Think like an ironman.

​

EXP RATES:

​

• x10 and x5 exp — During your first 12 hours of DMM, you'll earn exp at a x10 rate. However, after the 12 hours wear off, your exp rates will gradually decline to x5. After the grace period ends, stats 1-10 will gain exp at x10, 11-20 at x9, 21-30 at x8, and so on. The rate will stop declining at x5 for any stat you've reach 50 in. The 12 hour period will pause when you logout. Do not waste these 12 hours!!!

​

• Dying skulled & rebuilding stats — I'll tell you more about DMM's death mechanics soon, but for now, just know this... if you die while skulled (to a player or monster), you'll lose a big chunk of your account's overall exp (and no, this doesn't affect your normal OSRS profile—nor does anything in DMM). You can set some stats to be protected upon skulled death—but if you do lose exp in any of your stats, you'll earn it back at a x50 rate until you've rebuilt the stats to what they were before.

​

AUTOCOMPLETED QUESTS:

​

• The following quests will be auto-completed for you upon starting DMM — Dragon Slayer, Ernest the Chicken, Goblin Diplomacy, Prince Ali Rescue, The Restless Ghost, Romeo & Juliet, Animal Magnetism, The Grand Tree, Monkey Madness I, Priest in Peril, and Tree Gnome Village.

​

BANKING:

​

• Bank keys — Upon dying in PvP, whether you're skulled or not, the person who PKed you will get something called a bank key, which allows them to raid the 10 most valuable items/stacks of items from your bank. More about this in the next section of the guide.

​

• Deposit box — Players can protect up to 10 items (not stacks of items, like seeds) in a safe deposit box. PKers won't have access to these items via your bank key. This deposit box can be accessed by right-clicking a Financial Wizard at any major bank & selecting 'Deposit-box Financial Wizard'.

​

• Muling — While it's frowned upon by the DMM community, Jagex technically does allow muling. Muling is the act of playing DMM with 2 accounts & storing all of your valuables on the "mule" account. The mule account usually has little/no stats, and is always kept inside safezones. This prevents players from risking their bank when venturing outside of safezones on their main. This has been rumored to be bannable, though there are no known cases of players being banned for it. Mule at your own risk. Most players play legitimately.

​

PVP & DEATH:

​

• Bank keys — You'll notice Deadman Chests in all of the major banks around the game. PKers can use bank keys on these chests to retrieve the 10 most valuable items/stacks of items from their victims' banks. You will always drop a key when you die in PvP (skulled or not); however, you won't drop one when you die unskulled in PvM. Like the normal game, if you die to a monster, you'll keep the 3 most valuable items you had with you & your other items will stay on the ground. Players may only carry 5 bank keys at a time. If a PKer kills another player who happened to be holding other bank keys, the PKer will receive all of those keys as well. If a PKer is already holding 5 keys & kills someone who had keys on them, those other keys will vanish. ALL GRAND EXCHANGE OFFERS COUNT AS BANK RISK!!!

​

• Safezones — Most major cities/banks are safezones. While standing near the boundary of a safezone (inside it), you can still be attacked from outside of it, but you can't retaliate from inside the zone. So keep your distance! Players are often attacked at the GE if they stand within visual distance of the south entrance. Safezones include all of the areas marked green on this map (while Kourend isn't shown, Kourend Castle is also a safezone)—the red zones are multi-combat areas. Players are also safe from PvP within the Barbarian Assault minigame instance itself.

​

• The level-1337 safezone guards — You always lose exp upon dying skulled, but this amount is even greater when you die by entering a safezone while skulled. Never teleport/walk into a safezone while skulled, or level-1337 guards will ice barrage you to death.

​

• Skulling — Upon attacking another player in PvP, you will become skulled. Normally, your skull will last 15 minutes—but if you attack someone 30 levels below yourself, your skull timer will be 30 minutes. Re-engaging in PvP combat (if you are the aggressor—not if someone attacks you) while already skulled, will add 2 minutes to your skull. Depending on how many bank keys are in your inventory, your overhead skull will appear different to everyone. If you die while skulled, you risk losing up to 50% of your exp in unprotected stats. However, if you walk into a safezone while skulled, you will lose up to 50% in your unprotected stats as well as up to 10% of experience in your protected stats. You can determine which stats you protect (2 combats & 3 skills) in the 'Items Kept on Death' window within the Worn Equipment tab. Once you've lost exp in any stats, you'll regain it at x50 until the stat is rebuilt to what it was before. If you die to a monster while skulled, you will always lose any untradeable gear that you're carrying (i.e. fire cape, dragon defender).

​

• PJ timer — If you are under attack in PvP, you will be protected by a PJ timer. If you are simply attacking another player who isn't fighting back, you will not be protected by a PJ timer. If 2 players are engaged in mutual combat, they'll both be protected by the timer. It takes extra time for low-level players to PJ a fight, to prevent players from using alt accounts to interrupt combat by "boxing" their main out of a fight.

​

• Temporary PvP immunity — If you kill a player that is at most 30 combat levels below you (i.e. this wouldn't apply to a level-100 killing a level-69), you will be protected from PvP combat for 60 seconds, unless you re-initiate it yourself.

​

• Combat level range — There is no combat level range in DMM PvP. This means that a level-126 could potentially attack a level-3... so be careful!

​

• Spells/actions that require Accept Aid — Any spells (i.e. Vengeance other, teleother) or other actions that would normally require the target player to have Accept Aid on, may only be performed in a multi-combat zone.

​

• Avoiding PvP combat — ALWAYS be ready to click on a teletab, the moment you see a white dot approaching on your minimap! You can wait to see if they're geared for PKing before you teleport, but your best bet is to always teleport when you see a white dot, if you're not geared up to fight.

​

MISCELLANEOUS:

​

• Mysterious emblems — Tier-5 emblems may obtained from any lv100+ monsters in the game. Tier-1 emblems may be obtained from monsters during wilderness Slayer tasks. Emblems may be exchanged for BH points at the Bounty Hunter Store, just like in the normal game.

​

• Looting bag — Looting bags may be purchased from the BH store, but unlike the normal game, you may store items in them anytime you're outside of a safezone. You don't need to be in the wilderness to use them.

​

• Repairing 'broken' items — Untradeable items with broken forms, such as fire capes & imbued magic capes, will break anytime you die with them below level 20 wilderness (or anywhere outside safezones). Such items disappear completely upon death beyond level 20 wildy. Other untradeables like LunaGhostly/achievement diary equipment will stay in your inventory upon death (though the same level 20 wildy rule applies). All untradeable items that fall into these 2 categories may be repaired/rebought from Perdu (he can be found in Lumbridge, Catherby, Edgeville, and Falador).

​

• Insuring HP level — Players may insure their HP to prevent it from ever falling below a certain level upon skulled death. HP may be insured to 25 for 25k, 50 for 100k, or 75 for 1m. This can be done by speaking to Gelin in the Lumbridge graveyard.

​

• Blood money — When killing other players, in addition to a bank key you'll also recieve blood money (1 per kill). This can be used to purchase a Deadman top/bottom/cape from Nigel in the Lumbridge graveyard, costing 1 blood money per item. Since this gear shares the same bonuses as iron armor, it is mostly cosmetic. It can be reclaimed if lost.

​

• PoH mechanics — Players may enter each other's PoHs & engage in combat, though nothing will be lost upon death inside the PoH. The problem is that once you respawn outside of your house portal, the PKer can come kill you again and actually take your loot. You should always expel strangers from your house immediately.

​

• Logging out, teleporting, PoH portal — Logging out, teleporting while in combat (you may teletab out of PvM combat), or entering a PoH portal all require a 7-second countdown beforehand.

​

• Swapping gp — You'll often see players at the GE advertising that they're "buying dmm", "buying 07", "selling dmm", or "selling 07". These players are advertising that they'd like to swap gp from their 07 account to their DMM account, or vice versa. Usually these players will offer you a standard exchange rate. It may be anywhere from 1:1.5 to 1:3... meaning a 1-to-1.5 ratio or 1-to-3 ratio, respectively. The larger number is always the 07 part of the ratio. For instance, if a player says "buying DMM gp 1:2" this means that they want you to give them DMM gp & they'll pay 2gp in 07 money for each 1gp DMM you give them. Players sometimes use 2 accounts simultaneously to swap (one account trades the other player in DMM, while the other account simultaneously trades the other player's alt in 07scape). Swapping is risky and you always run the risk of being scammed. Anyone spam-advertising a swap cc at the GE is 100% a scammer. Never trust the cc "aSwap"!

​

• Grand Exchange — While DMM does have a GE, its prices are independent of the normal game's GE. On top of this, items don't always buy/sell immediately, so you'll sometimes need to offer quite a bit more than market value for an item to buy immediately... Likewise, you might have to sell items far below their market value for them to sell quickly. Often, you'll need to obtain items from scratch altogether, or purchase them from NPCs around the map. Your GE offers are not safe; they will be included in your bank key if they're of sufficient value!

​

• Dropping items — In DMM, any items you drop are instantly visible to other players.

Guardian Games Suggestions

I've never played the Original Guardian Games, so I don't know how they were. But the current version blows; it is unoriginal, boring, and far too repetitive.
These suggestions are to make Guardian Games an actually unique event, without requiring much effort on the development team. Most of the suggested gamemodes are copypasted from other parts of the game, to make development easier for the team.

Complete reforms:

Scoring Top Three in Gamemode Events will give you Medals.
Gold for 1st,
Silver for 2nd,
Bronze for 3rd,
and Participation for everything else.
Deposit those Medals into the Podium to boost your class count! Get rewards for depositing them.
You can still request a Medal Bounty from Eva, so even bad players can get a Gold eventually.
Transform your medal into the next tier by sacrificing three. The exchange is as follows: Participation>Bronze>Silver>Gold
Participation allows everyone to get involved in the Guardian Games. Afterall, the main theme is that it's an event that is for everyone getting together and having fun, not only the top guardians!
Because those who score Top-Three win Medals, this brings a brief revive to Survival, introducing newer players to Survival and allowing them to appreciate the complexities of Class interactions.
Redeeming Medals rewards you with pieces of Guardian Games armour and limited edition weapons. Eververse receives a glowing variant of the armour. Fans often ask for Glowing Armour. Weapons don't have to be unique weapons, but instead can be retextured guns, the camo and design of Guardian Games are very aesthetic.
Every event is available from the start. But each week there is a different event highlight, providing extra XP, Brightdust and bonus Laurels!
The quest/triumph to receive the new Exotic Gun changes to "Collect X amount of Participations"
This makes better players ease back on their talent, which in turn allows newer players to have a chance at the Top-3.

Event 1: PvP

Events that focus on PvP.
Guardian Party
It's time for some insanity! A fun game-mode that is Mayhem x10, it allows newbie players to have a chance at getting top-scores due to the randomness of the Gamemode.
This gamemode is the same as Mayhem, except Heavy Ammo is far more common, and everyone spawns with more Special Ammo. Why? Because Event Gamemodes should be the best way to grind for your previous quests, like getting the Pinnacle Sniper or Linear Fusion Rifle.
To counter Super Spam, Relic Weapons are now available throughout the maps. Scorch Cannons, Valkyries and Ascendant Swords appear in locations that try to favour players who aren't doing as good.
Lore-wise, this gamemode makes more sense as you will be using your class abilities and supers far more often. Which super is best? What abilities are better than others?
Class Clash
3v3v3 Battles! Hunters vs Warlocks vs Titans. What team will come out on top?
This gamemode functions the same as Elimination, except there are three teams. One starting in the middle, and the two others are other sides of the map. The team starting in the middle has an area vulnerable from both sides; however, they have quick access to the middle. Only a few maps will work for this mode.
If this gamemode is too challenging for developers, an alternative can be a modified Rumble match, where the same classes cannot damage each other. It'll be much messier, and random, but still functions the same as 3v3v3 if the Matchmaking works.
Gambit Games
3v3v3 Gambit! Each team of three classes will battle it out against enemies and each other. No invasion portals.
This mode will be very chaotic. Enemies will rotate between each team's spawn area whoever kills the most enemies and deals the most damage to the Primeval win. Guardian Kills still count as Invasions, to make grinding bounties easier. Afterall, it's a gamemode that won't last forever!
Heavy Ammo also rotates in the middle and spawns three times as often. Controlling the middle is a viable strategy, but you won't be killing any enemies.
Enemy Kills>Primeval Damage>Guardian Kills; determines what team will win. If a team kills more enemies than other teams have damaged the primeval and each other, that team will win.
(If this is too difficult to code, developers can instead use the Reckoning starting map)

Event 2: Destination

Destination Events don't really take the class in account, but they are silly events that everyone can join in regardless of skill level or equipment.
Sparrow Race
3-12 Player Sparrow Races! Load up into a map and race opponents in your sparrow, pass through checkpoints along the track to gain points. Whoever has the most points wins!
This mode sets up a racetrack on Active Maps that feature a loop. Active meaning that there's non-racing players, enemies, public events, etc~ Through the track are randomly placed checkpoints (Such as the ones on Exodus Crash and The Rider, this makes it easier for devs to copy-paste code).
If you leave your sparrow, of if it gets destroyed, you have to start from the beginning; A Harsh Punishment. But this is to allow Slow and Steady a real chance of winning. The fastest, flashiest sparrows aren't automatically the best.
Resource Collectors
3-12 players. Collect as many resources as you can, collect the most, and you win!
Players randomly spawn throughout the map. The goal is to collect the most amount of resources. You get to keep the resources gained.
If collecting resources is too troublesome for this gamemode, it can be replaced with XP gain.
Bounty Boom
3-12 Players. Claim as many bounties as you can within the time limit. Whoever finishes the bounties first wins.
Players spawn randomly in a world with a large amount of bounties to complete. Whoever completes the most amount of bounties first will win!
The Bounties still provide their rewards and experience.
Hardcore Parkour
It's everyone's favourite thing in Destiny! Parkour!
That's literally it. You start in areas in maps that have Parkour courses. First three to finish the course win their respective medals.

Event 3: Party!

The final event! This event is based entirely around fun and games! Relax, have a few laughs!
Bumper Cars
3-6 Sparrows spawn on a platform. Knock your opponents off the disc and avoid the spawning mines!
Developers can either use a large disc suspended above a kill barrier or have Four Discs that appear in Eater of Worlds up against one another. Eventually, the discs will start to fall down into the ground.
Ram your sparrow into the others to knock them off. If the match goes on for too long, mines start to appear.
Move it!
3-16 Players. Guardians spawn in a limited area. Stop moving, and you will die!
This is the same as Bumper Cars, but with no sparrows. Jump and bounce around into others as enemies, obstacles and bosses start to appear as the match progresses.
You cannot damage other guardians in this gamemode, but you can knock others back into dangerous areas!
Shaxx Says
3-16 Players. Shaxx Says Simon Says!
This is Simon Says, but with Shaxx giving the commands. He speeds up his commands as the match moves forwards. "Shaxx says... JUMP!", anyone who doesn't jump in time, or performs a different action, is eliminated.
Occasionally other characters come in to give false commands. Only follow Shaxx when he says "Shaxx Says..."
Dodgeball!
3-12 Players, team-based. It's Dodgeball.
Don't cross the line! There are Three Orbs that you can pick up from the middle. Then play some Dodgeball!
As the match goes on, the throw speed becomes faster and faster. You can fake a throw by right-clicking. Hold down Collect to catch an Orb. Catch it successfully, and the person who threw it is eliminated.
Please share your own suggestions, and if you want to provide criticism, feel free (so long as it's constructive). I believe that the Developers are currently busy working on an explosive finish for this Season, next Season or even working on Destiny 3.

Guardian Games Suggestions

I've never played the Original Guardian Games, so I don't know how they were. But the current version blows; it is unoriginal, boring, and far too repetitive.
These suggestions are to make Guardian Games an actually unique event, without requiring much effort on the development team. Most of the suggested gamemodes are copypasted from other parts of the game, to make development easier for the team.

Complete reforms:

Scoring Top Three in Gamemode Events will give you Medals.
Gold for 1st,
Silver for 2nd,
Bronze for 3rd,
and Participation for everything else.
Deposit those Medals into the Podium to boost your class count! Get rewards for depositing them.
You can still request a Medal Bounty from Eva, so even bad players can get a Gold eventually.
Transform your medal into the next tier by sacrificing three. The exchange is as follows: Participation>Bronze>Silver>Gold
Participation allows everyone to get involved in the Guardian Games. Afterall, the main theme is that it's an event that is for everyone getting together and having fun, not only the top guardians!
Because those who score Top-Three win Medals, this brings a brief revive to Survival, introducing newer players to Survival and allowing them to appreciate the complexities of Class interactions.
Redeeming Medals rewards you with pieces of Guardian Games armour and limited edition weapons. Eververse receives a glowing variant of the armour. Fans often ask for Glowing Armour. Weapons don't have to be unique weapons, but instead can be retextured guns, the camo and design of Guardian Games are very aesthetic.
Every event is available from the start. But each week there is a different event highlight, providing extra XP, Brightdust and bonus Laurels!
The quest/triumph to receive the new Exotic Gun changes to "Collect X amount of Participations"
This makes better players ease back on their talent, which in turn allows newer players to have a chance at the Top-3.

Event 1: PvP

Events that focus on PvP.
Guardian Party
It's time for some insanity! A fun game-mode that is Mayhem x10, it allows newbie players to have a chance at getting top-scores due to the randomness of the Gamemode.
This gamemode is the same as Mayhem, except Heavy Ammo is far more common, and everyone spawns with more Special Ammo. Why? Because Event Gamemodes should be the best way to grind for your previous quests, like getting the Pinnacle Sniper or Linear Fusion Rifle.

• Doesn't make sense to make them level 120 since there are no level 120 combat skills. If in the future combat skills become 120, then M&S will have a reason to be 120.
• Remove ores, bars and smithed gear from drop tables and replace those with drops of equivalent value (we want to preserve the value of PvM drop tables).
  • This means the spring cleaner will not be very useful for mining/smithing anymore [i.e. the primary reason it's used] since it won't have anything dropped to dismantle into ores. (will still have bstaves etc).
  • Want mining and smithing to be the source of its materials not PvM.
  • Metallic dragons needs to be fixed as well. There is also scope for higher tiered dragons but won't be part of this rework.
• Impact on Ironmen is a complicated side question.
  • Every change in RS has a slightly distorted effect on Ironmen.
  • If really need be, we could have mechanics work differently for Ironmen.
  • Wouldn't want to change the design just for Ironmen though.
• None of the base M&S mechanics will require any quest unlocks or another skill to train from 1-99.
• BETA
  • Wanted to do one in December but was not possible.
  • Early next year / ASAP.
  • Want to make it as open as possible (bar any technical limitations).
  • Will likely be the test square shown on stream rather than the full open world.
• Need to take a look at Trah hour voice of seren. Harmonised is useless post-rework.
• XP rates will be balanced to be roughly the same as existing but will be very slightly better.
• Dungeoneering runs on its own code so will largely remain the same.
• Quest requirements will not be changed unless you have to smith/mine certain materials.
• Not looking to add new divine locations. If someone wants to take on the project in the future they can. Obviously runite ore will not be worth as much anymore.

Mining

• Rocks are now all non-competitive and never deplete.
• Click a rock and AFK.
• Every so often your character will take a break:
  • You can click immediately to make your character resume mining (more active but better XP).
  • You can choose not to click again and your character will resume mining (more AFK).
  • Initial break is ~15s but scales very slightly with Agility level (F2P won't receive this benefit but the scaling is really low anyway)
• Mining level affects how quickly you mine as well as how often you take breaks.
  • Your mining level also affects how much XP you get per strike. As does the tier of pickaxe.
  • 1/10 of your strength level is added to your mining level for this purpose.
  • At 99 the strength bonus is ~5% bonus. Decent bonus but in no way necessary.
• Temporary boosts affect all these stats (past 99 too)
  • Higher mining will give you more XP per strike.
  • Overloading for the strength boost (11.6 mining levels worth at 99 'rounds down to 10').
• Get XP with every strike (every 4 ticks) but not ore with every strike.
• There will be a progress bar above your character's head which gives you an ore once it fills. Gain # of points towards progress bar per strike (mining level + tier of pickaxe)
  • At level 99, the progress bar was giving an ore with every strike on coal.
• Every so often a rock will be 'exploding' which will give x10 progress compaared to regular rocks.
  • Will stay until logout if you don't click it.
  • If you do click it, it'll revert to a regular after a small period and new rock will become exploding after ~1min.
  • Will only spawn on the same rock type that you are interacting with (i.e. if there are multiple types of rocks around you and you're mining mithril ore, only a mithril rock will become exploding).
  • Unique to each player.
• Stackable ore is now replaced with an ore bag
  • Stackable ore is too disruptive to the economy.
  • Functions like a coal bag for all ores.
  • Can only have one.
  • Currently spawns one in your inventory when you receive an ore to make it ease of use and not something you'd forget in your bank. Possibly something that can be auto-created when you click it from the toolbelt (as an alternative).
  • Click to fill; will not interrupt mining.
  • Currently has a capacity of 1k (needs rebalancing) with higher tiers taking up more than one space. Copper takes one space.
  • Hugely devalues porters and this needs to be looked into ('how important is it to protect that divination reward?')
• Coal Bag
  • Current idea is to make the coal bag into an ore bag upgrade to increase the capacity.
  • Could have one ore bag upgrade from the DG store, and one rewarded from somewhere else.
• Low tier pickaxes can't be used on high level rocks.
• Runite ore (L50).
• Luminite ore (L40): replacing coal as the secondary for Adamant and Runite bars.
• Coal (L30):
  • Will not be necessary for high level smithing.
  • Still used for steel bars.
  • We want to preserve the value of coal so we will find a use for it.
  • Possibly incorporate coal into the 'heat' mechanic (see below).
• Drakolith ore (L60):
  • Visually inspired by Dragon. The metal which dragon is made out of. Dragonkin forge the more superior dragon armour.
  • Won't need to use the dragon forge to make Drakolith.
  • Will be weaker version of Dragon.
  • The issue with making Dragon smithable is that we'll have to create additional items to replace the value of the more expensive dragon items (new items for the hatchet and pickaxe used for crystal; limbs used for ascensions etc). We would rather not go down this route.
  • Drakolith won't be able to be used to upgrade to crystal pickaxe/hatchet or ascension crossbows.
• Necrite ore (T70)
  • Secondary: Phasmatite ore.
  • May introduce special mechanics but currently we have nothing, it's just basic T70.
• Bane ore (T80)
  • Secondary: Dark animica ore (corrupted crystalised divine energy; 'purple corrupted god energy')
  • Initially we thought, T77 bane ore already exists why not let it tune to everything lorewise and make it a flat T80. Scrapped idea.
  • Now we're thinking that we can make Bane weapons that you can tune towards more things. Something like T60 regularly but T80 against its intended target.
  • Part of the reason for this is that it ties into an existing concept and also 'it gives a purpose to T80, because as it is with the rework, a lot of people already have mining or smithing past 90. So T80 is kind of a vestigial tier. Does it really matter? But if we can make some specialised weapons for some monster, certain slayer assignments or something then T80 will have a really good use.'
• T90 bars - Elder Rune bars
  • T90 bars will be made of 3 ores:
  • 1. Colossite ore - probably needs to renamed to Elder runite ore
  • 2. Living rock ore
  • 3. Light animica ore
  • Rune as the highest smithable was iconic so we renamed the T90 to Elder Runite.
• Upgraded crystal pickaxe
  • Crystal pickaxe preserves the value of the dragon pickaxe.
  • Crystal pickaxe will be better than the T70 Necrite pickaxe (Necrite will also not be augmentable).
  • Higher level pickaxes will use crystal pickaxe as part of its upgrade.
  • T90 pickaxe will be augmentable.
  • T80 will be augmentable 'if there's a case for it.'
• New ores will go wherever we can find spots for them.
  • Some of them already have thematically appropriate locations while some will need changes to their locations to make them more thematically apt.
  • May mean repurposing existing mining spots.
  • May mean creating new mining spots.
  • LRC / lava flow mine. We would like to use iconic mining spots.
• Mining boosts
  • Your mining level scales the XP

Smithing

• Smelting is essentially the same but with a new hopper system
  • Every furnace and anvil will use to a consolidated hopper system
  • Deposit ores and bars into the hopper (can deposit noted as well as straight from the ore bag).
  • 'A unique smithing bank for ores and bars that can only be used for smithing'
  • Can hold a max stack of each ore/bar.
  • Undecided if the unconventional bars like Blurite will be able to go in the hopper.
  • Hopper will show it's content everytime the smithing interface is accessed
  • Smithing will use materials directly from the hopper.
  • When smelting, bars will go into your inventory but can deposited straight back into the hopper.
  • Your hopper storage is the same across all furnaces/anvils.
  • Rune bar: 1 Runite ore + 1 Luminite ore.
  • Elder rune bar (T90): 1 Living rock ore + 1 Light animica ore + 1 Colossite ore
• Much like mining, XP is given per strike (every 2 ticks) of the anvil but items are not produced until a progress bar is complete.
• Creating an item gives (eg Rune) 'unfinished Runite item' which needs to be worked on until the progress bar is complete.
  • Tracks the progress of the item as well its heat.
  • We will discourage players to start and not complete multiple unfinished items because there is no point.
• Two progress bars above your head: (i) Above shows progress towards the item being smithed (when full item is complete) (ii) Below shows how much heat your item has.
• Heat mechanic
  • Your item needs to be hot to be smithed.
  • No progress can be made on an item once it hits 0% heat.
  • Every anvil will have a forge next to it to heat your items up.
  • The higher your heat the more progress/XP per strike you'll make/get.
  • This causes a 'harps'-like effect to training. If you want the best XP you'll be actively making sure your heat is topped up. Or you can AFK and top your heat up less frequently.

Heat	Progress Multiplier
>90	x4
>75	x3
>50	x2
0-50	x1

• +X items
  • Create +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 versions of the base equipment.
  • +X items will have the same wear and smith requirements as their base versions but will have +X tiers (Rune platebody+3 will require 50 defence to wear, 50 smithing to make but will have T53 stats).
  • The tier of the armour affects how many times it can be upgraded: Bronze can't be upgraded at all; Rune can be upgrade to +3; T90 can be upgraded to +5.

Tier	Max+
Bronze	Cannot be upgraded.
Iron	+1
Mithril	+2
Adamant	+2
Rune	+3
Drakolith	+3
Necrite	+4
Bane	+4
Elder Runite	+5

• 'Rune item+1' requires Rune item & 10 Runite bars.
• 'Rune item+2' requires Rune item+1 & 20 Runite bars.
• Better XP rates for +X.
• +X items are tradeable.
  • Decorated equipment
• When you hit the max level of +X you can turn it into an untradeable decorated version (i.e. Rune platebody+3 becomes Rune platebody (decorated).
• Decoration process is very quick + works with noted.
• Decorated versions can be handed into Thurgo/Lady Trah/Doric (any important smithing NPC) for a big chunk of XP.
• Currently unusable once you make it decorated but we might make it have the same stats as the max +X for that tier (because it would suck if you accidentally decorated your valuable +5)
• Since +X are tradeable and decorated are untradeable - this will make an ecosystem within the skill where richer players can choose to buy +3s or +5s from the GE to make it decorated for the chunk of XP.
• Instead of alching your equipment we want the players to sell their +Xs for their profit with the decorated items leaving the game through NPCs.
  • T90 with the current balancing is either T75 or T80 and gets upgraded by 5 tiers using +X mechanics.
• 'We are really uncomfortable with that 90 smithing is creating T75/80 which requires level 90 to wear feels horrible but it's the best solution we have been able to come up with without threatening PvM too much.'
  • Smithing perks need to be looked at.
• Unlikely that we'll add new perks but if we need to we will.
• May need to redesign or tweak existing ones.
• The rework allows for more rewards (previously the only rewards we could ever give were: less ingredients used; faster smithing etc) with rewards like less heat decays slower etc.
  • Alching
• 'We don't expect people to alch.'
• Alch values will go down. A lot less items coming into the game.
• Looking to substitute items in player's banks with new functionless items that can be alched for the same value to preserve their banks.
  • 'Items will be made much slower so post-rework don't expect million of 2hs to alch'
• Which will drastically affect invention; we will take a look at this and see if anything needs to be done.
• Or if an insufficient amount of the ingredients to certain summoning pouches are in circulation (i.e. steel platebodies for steel titans).
• We might look to replace some of the items on the drop tables with new items which disassemble into the same components if need be.
  • The number of bars required to make each item type have been changed. Off-hand variants require the same amount of bars as their mainhands:
• Gauntlet; Boots - 2
• Chainbody; Platebody - 6
• Helm; Full Helm; Platelegs; Plateskirt - 5
• Two-handed sword - 20
• Dagger; Hatchet; Mace; Sword; Pickaxe; Scimitar; Longsword; Warhammer; Battleaxe; Claw; Square shield; Kiteshield -10
• Likely you'll forge the bars together to make a 'weapon bar' etc which.
  • Haven't made the 'Smithing overload' yet.
• 'Really really hard to make it.'
• Level 99 but possibly a weaker version at level 90.
• Untradeable benefit that won't be expensive to use.
• Some kind of self buff that helps you in combat.

Hey guys I'm seeing wildly different ideas of what is considered a good exchange listing (Coss being thrown into bottom of the barrel but then also showing up as #23 most important by real volume for us to be listed on, not caring about CoinAll because Okex is "just wash trading" and then Okex showing up as #3 on the same list) so I figured maybe it'd be a good idea to get on the same page about our goals so we can recognize success and acknowledge shortcomings. Here's my contribution:

• Kin Foundation should no longer be using CoinMarketCap to look at exchange data now that it is widely known to be highly inaccurate.
  
• For exchange volume, they should use this: https://www.bti.live ; click view exchange rankings and you'll get the top exchanges by real to according to Blockchain Transparency Institute. These exchanges should be high priority.
  
• For crypto index use https://messari.io/onchainfx , which uses the 10 exchanges with large significant volume according to Bitwise in their report to the SEC. These exchanges should be the HIGHEST priority.
  
• Notice Kin does not have any volume on the above website, and will not be in the top ranks without volume from the "Real10". If we wanna be the best of the best, these are the rankings to watch.
  
• Exchanges that help gain access to dev tools and resources also welcome.
  
• Smaller less reputable exchanges of all types welcome as long as they are in addition to these:
  

http://imgur.com/gallery/fNjgGd9
http://imgur.com/a/wcZdwZZ

• We really need liquidity. We are all hodlers and accumulators with maximum bags so we are not providing liquidity to others and without new markets there is no one to provide it to us.

What else do you guys want to see to be happy with exchange listings?
Fun bonus storytime: how we took (x)coin from nothing to binance, and how it affected our community:
There was a much smaller, more niche community that I was a part of that at one point had no useful exchanges whatsoever, and we were forced to do all trading on cryptobridge, a fake dex (imo) that would take your currency and give you a placeholder to trade with, and would settle at withdrawal. Deposits took 4 hours, withdrawals 24-72 hours, and the website would go down regularly. There was a 24/7 concern that our coins were being stolen or that the site was exit scamming. I swear there was a dude in a room manually settling these trades y'all, it was gruelling. We would have killed for a better exchange because we really needed it. Something like CoinAll would have been a godsend (different situation obviously). Eventually we got listed on Nanex (nano based dex), and we had it bumping for a bit, but since no one wanted to trade in Nano eventually all volume went back to cryptobridge. We were dominating this shitty little exchange, we were not even doing much volume but we were doing more than BTC and LTC were and making them filthy rich in the process. The Nanex operator actually added a BTC pair for this coin to their nano based dex just so that they could take our volume (he saw us still begging for a better exchange) but like a week later got rekt, because after a year of applying to exchanges, freaking Bittrex got back to us. A cool volunteer lawyer from the community gave them some whimpy memorandum to assure them it wasn't a security and we were listed. This resulted in a 20% pump which immediately retraced into a dump. But we finally had a useful exchange, hallelujah. Slowly, (and I mean slowly) Bittrex started taking over volume from cryptobridge, and overall volume also started improving. Worth noting we were also headed back to ATL. But it became our best exchange, and most volume condensed onto it.
Fun part: Fast forward to a community meet up at a conference event I attended some time later, it is day #3 and since it is a non corporate no CEO no ICO poW coin, I figure there's no way they could possibly announce anything, and also kin moon soon (duh), I decide to sell. Well the next day CZ announces Binance listing, turns out he's a fan of the project, even tweets about it (We had also applied a year earlier, around the same time as Bittrex). I got so rekt. (Which is okay because it was my own decision). Coin pumped about 20%, I think no big deal, I will wait till this dies out and buy back in. Well, two weeks later it moons and goes on the biggest bull run of the year.
It was super sudden, and even more importantly our community about x10 in size and activity overnight, and it wasn't even when we were first listed, it was about a week or two later. All because hundreds of thousands or millions of fresh eyes started to take a look at the project on this platform that they use regularly. If you were to look now, the core community is almost unrecognizable. Many original ones sold and are gone, but there is also a HUGE amount of new people, many of which are now core members themselves, developing websites, creating content, contributing "marketing" (decentralized marketing makes me cringe so let's not talk about it), or even building custom exchanges and software. The amount of positive growth we experienced from this one market was absurd, and like, this coin does not make the best first impression. There is a Game of Thrones reference in the opening paragraph of the whitepaper. It's named after an animal. There is almost no use still. Yet it soared to over 200M market cap based on the dreams and hopes of the utility the coin may someday provide (and the connections it has to existing companies and people). They would love to have the apps and users providing the utility and demand that we do, and to be able to connect the dots we can in terms of links to existing companies and potential partnerships. They still to this day only have a fraction of the crypto use, active accounts, members, excitement, or constructive conversation going on that we do now. It's mostly just memes and people creating conspiracy theories (more than here, if you can believe that). Btw this coin was laughed at and called a scam constantly, I argued its merits but people just saw me as a blind fanboy...go figure. I argue with many of those same people today but about Kin. So yeah, I have very very high hopes for the day this coin is exposed to new major markets, and I hope it proves me right. But this time I'm not selling before Binance!

*Me* Oct 10, 17:55 CST: Hi! My account ********@gmail.com just blocked now. Can you help me? I was trade RES/BTC and exchange close *Service* (Bibox) Oct 10, 18:03 CST: Hello, we are checking your account. Just a moment, please. *Me* Oct 10, 18:04 CST: Ok.

Thank you for your understanding and support. *Me* Oct 13, 01:04 CST: Hi! Where can I read about reasons account locked? This https://bibox.zendesk.com have any article? Before you lock my account and I cannot sell my tokens at high price and unlock where price so down.I want to know the reason for the block now because the price of the asset has not returned. Maybe I will ask for compensation if you do not provide me with a reliable reason for the block. Thanks. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 01:16 CST: Hello, your account has an abnormal transaction, so it is automatically locked by the system. It may be due to your short-term continuous trading (the bid-ask spread is too large). *Me* Oct 13, 02:29 CST: Ok, thanks for the answer. Where I can see in your rules that short-term continuous trading is prohibit in your platform? I'm especially trading with new coins in many exchanges but no one block me for that. And also new coin in exchanges have spread too large. Now I am considering filing a claim for compensation in the amount of 1 BTC from Bibox. I am preparing a letter to my lawyer. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 02:45 CST: Hello, I suggest you try not to use such a transaction. *Me* Oct 13, 02:48 CST: Please, I need sure answer about page in rules Bibox platform which I look it prohibited. Thanks. If no have in rules please text it. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 03:22 CST: Please refer to the website user agreement. *Me* Oct 13, 03:27 CST: Thanks. What address my lawyer can use for send a complaint? Do you want to compensate my losses before it for solve it? *Me* Oct 13, 03:54 CST: My lawyer also asked me to tell you that a screenshot of this letter, a screenshot of my orders, a screenshot of the lock screen that I previously made, will be used by him, and can also be distributed with my story among news sites and telegrams channels about cryptocurrency. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 04:09 CST I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. this is a normal system risk control mechanism, we can not apply for compensation for you. *Me* Oct 13, 04:25 CST Sorry. I'm used not a correct word compensate - not compensate - buyback. I want you buy back of rest of my tokens which now 62.823.8815 RES by price 0.000015. Unfortunately, I had to sell a part of the RES tokens, since I had to pay my bills. System was block me when I was cancell my orders and put all - it was almost 98.000 by 0.000015 so it can costs 1.47 BTC. Now I only can pretend by 0.942 BTC. My lawyer will be use this amount. I want you buy back my 62,823 RES tokens by price 0.000015 BTC. This screenshot http://prntscr.com/pig97e show price at 12:40 MSK time (gmt+3) was max 0.00001548 BTC and I can easy sell my tokens by 0.000015 if you not block me 12:30 MSK time (gmt+3). I give you 3 days for decicion before my lawyer will start his work. Hope you buyback my tokens untill that. Thanks. *Me* Oct 13, 04:39 CST: Also this mechanism of system risk is not normal if not described it with the rules of your platform. And high price up or down with new coins normal too. Block traders for buy/sell operations isn't normal and my situation can considired as advertising of dishonest profit for traders, although you are deprived of the opportunity to sell for this price. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 04:51 CST: Hello, normal trading will not trigger the risk control mechanism. *Me* Oct 13, 05:02 CST: I am absolutelly normal trade with the new coin. You are fooling traders by luring them with huge profits, while blocking accounts not allow to sell. ***************************** Here I am decide to skip a little talk about my problems with XRP withdrawals and my plans to publish screenshot of this letter and article about this conversation in a publics. ***************************** *Me* Oct 13, 05:54 CST: *** Better please inform me you want buyback my RES tokens or not. Thanks *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 08:46 CST: I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. we have the right to freeze and investigate the abnormal trading behavior of this account. We will respond to the commissioner for verification. *Me* Oct 13, 08:51 CST: I'm not understand. U want freeze my account again instead compensation? *Me* Oct 13, 08:56 CST: It's absolutele legal info about ICO price https://cryptodiffer.com/resistance-ico https://cryptorank.io/currencies/resistance/ico 0.11 - 0.23 USD / Now - 0.0248 / So I suggest don't try to make me scare you. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 09:09 CST: Hello, sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Let's say this, in case we are encountering one hack attack. You account will be protected by our alert system. This is the mechanism our alert system works on. It will always give alert when your account is abnormal. Now you are blaming this kind of system. We think it is unreasonable. *Me* Oct 13, 09:19 CST: I just see this coin is a very low then ICO price so bought this at very low price and put price 0.000015 (ico price 0.00003-4 a lot more). Your system need take that info too about coins. It was so easy - In telegram I'm subscribe about new coins in exchanges, if price too low me bought and put price near ICO. It normal trading and I really don't know why RES trade so low in your exchange. Maybe this coins hack, so you need stop trading this coin at all, Bittrex do that for example. But you block only me. Me just read real price, not more. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 09:22 CST: Thank for your proposals. We were not hacked, never. *Me* Oct 13, 10:01 CST: I hope U understand my position about compensation of my losses and I will keep trade on your exchange in the future. I like Bibox, it interface and crazy profitable coins here. My deposit just was 0.1 btc and I already with profit from deposit time. But if you not block me then I can have 1.5 btc now and it can be my profit. Already it can be my absolutely legal money, not yours more. So this is a reason why now I considired me I'm in loss, not a profit. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 10:20 CST: Hello, sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. We know your feeling. As we said, our risk control system is very sensitive, and the security of your account is the first factor we consider, not others. Therefore, we do not bear such potential losses. *Me* Oct 13, 10:28 CST: That losses not potential. That losses happen when I put all my RES token to sell in price 0.000015 and you block me. I text your support hurry up please, price of this coin very high up down movement but support unblock me when price will be very low. It's normal to compensate. Also I din't see any illegal if I put this my story to the news channels if you not want. I will wait compensation 3 days until now. If no have I will be send a sent an article about your system in the news channels. Hope you understand. Thanks *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 10:42 CST: Hello, thanks for waiting. Let me explain carefully why it is a possible benefit. When you submit a sell order with a price of 0.000015, you don't know the price change afterwards. If you say that you have the ability to predict the future, we do not believe it. *Me* Oct 13, 10:50 CST: If you not understant price that moment was 0.00004 already and start extrimaly down to 0.00002. I have time for sell. Also after 10 min have another candle to 0.0000155. Your system block me when I click sell 0.000015 understand now? And article about your system is block people when they try to sell coins an amazing Bibox exchange pumps will be absolutely real. If that happen (compensate better then it happen), I will send links about articles in this conversation. *Me* Oct 13, 10:57 CST: Also all this time after uou keep my account suspended price was more 0.0001 a little and I can sell my 98000 coins to 1btc. But you are block me I guess especially so long. I text already - hurry up, hurry up. *Me* Oct 13, 11:04 CST: Please keep attention on the screenshot http://prntscr.com/pjrf6q *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 11:06 CST: Hi, thank for your patience. We are willing to explain to you with tirelessness. The primary function of our risk control system is to protect the security of user accounts. This means that our risk control system will ensure that the user's assets are not unreasonably threatened. We are sorry for the resulting reduction in potential earnings. *Me* Oct 13, 11:13 CST: Another traders will decide need put money on your exchange after you "control risk about their money" like that or not need and maybe better to keep away from your exchange. Hope you look at screenshot I send before again. And this screenshot is a proof I text to support I can loose money: http://prntscr.com/pjrhgv And you unblock me: http://prntscr.com/pjrhqg *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 11:20 CST: We need time to deal with every case. If you have experienced support services on other platforms, you will know that our response speed is faster. Of course, we will strive to provide faster service. *Me* Oct 13, 11:26 CST: I talk about you block me when I click sell with X15 fom my money! You block me when I try to sell with huge profit. You try to safe me from huge profit? Yes? You not keep security about my finance, your keep security about YOUR finance. U tell you keep my security - not. Also you can block me after me sell and check my account. This was a lot better if that, but you block me when I click sell and hold all. Also I prepared screenshot for you in CST time for can better understood my previous message http://prntscr.com/pjripq *Me* Oct 13, 11:29 CST: I trade about 3 year and have a little different situation on another exchange year ago. They hold my deposit because have error of their system. They pay me compensation. Also it only your problem, not mine, I wait compensation. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 11:35 CST: Sorry, we can not offer any compensation. Because we did nothing wrong. *Me* Oct 13, 11:38 CST: Ok. Do you agree about article in telegram news channels with this conversation? I'm not will text any more, just this situation. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 11:40 CST: Of course you can. Please make sure your article covers all the points. *Me* Oct 13, 11:44 CST: Yes, ok I am prepared for it same screenshot with time for people see. I will send link when it will post. I hope next week. I can more then 30 channels in telegram for post. Hope people see and stay away from your exchange *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 11:57 CST: Hello, thanks for waiting. Ok, hope you cover the introduction of our risk control system in your article. *Me* Oct 13, 12:07 CST: After all this conversation you with me I don't understand how that system decide to block and keep my account safe. I just copy your words about it and tell the fact - it block me when I try to sell with X15 profit. Block for 1 hour 45 minutes until price comeback to very low and your safe your money for I cannot withdraw 1.5 BTC from your exchange. Great for you, your control risk for your tradres not turn to be rich. Also this your answers I consider not so punctual and polite to me. I not see any try to solve the problem from your side. I just want a little respect to me. Before I talk in this telegram channels only good words about your company. Thank you for back shit to me, will never more text good. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 12:23 CST: Hi, thanks for waiting. If the order price of your order deviates from the latest transaction price by 3%-5%, the risk control system will be triggered. *Me* Oct 13, 12:30 CST: Why block all account? Why not restricted to access in some function, as for examply block only withdrawals until trader not text to support? And I will keep to trade RES to your exchange, I will not want to change price of my sell order cos it very low then ico price. And price now more then 10x lowest then ico. If my orders will fill you block me again? Also when have another intersted coin I will trade too. I not want leave exchange, article just tell people about your absolutely stupid system which your not want to change. *Me* Oct 13, 12:34 CST: Sorry to me, pay compensation and change rules of your system - restricted access to some function, but not block trades. It all what I want. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 12:36 CST: We need to add some information: Under normal circumstances, if the order commission price deviates too much, the order will not be submitted. If the order amount is large, as in the case you encounter, the risk control system will lock the account. *Me* Oct 13, 12:48 CST: Same same I told. Now you understand what happened with me. But that terrible if you decide it normal. And after that have some more question to you. Yesterday your system allow to someone sell 1,5 million RES token http://prntscr.com/pjrlm0 Why no one block from this dump? Your words not so match with it. Next question - why you not block someone who bought RES very hight same day when you block me? One more question question - price now 0.00000285 and I put sell orders to 0.00001995 and 0.00001998 with 31411 and 31411 RES. You are not execute my orders again if price will be extrimely up same before? I need this answers for article already. I understand about your attitude to me and other traders in your platform. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 12:55 CST: If the order price of your order deviates from the latest transaction price by 3%-5%, the risk control system will be triggered. Meanwhile, if the order amount is large, the account will be locked. No exceptions. As long as the commission price of the new order does not deviate too much, the price can rise or fall rapidly by submitting multiple orders quickly. *Me* Oct 13, 13:06 CST: So sad you not hear me becuse I think of this system allow price of that coin turn to too low now. Just some idiot start with sell too low when trade of RES started. Actual ico price is 0.00004 btc. Your system also responsible to current situation for many people already without me in telegram text Bibox and Resistance is scammers, include Resistance telegram group. Your system block increase lowest price to normal ico price. It's a fact. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 13:14 CST: If the latest trading price is 0.00000285 and you put sell orders to 0.00001995 and 0.00001998 which deviates from the latest transaction price by more than 5%. You orders will be cancelled or your account will be blocked. *Me* Oct 13, 13:16 CST: It's you put only for my account now? I hope your position about your system same with your management. I hope decision not change the system is not fore some technical worker. I hope you tell about this situation to management. And I just want sorry, compensation or bonus, and promised to change something that system for block accounts. It so small for your exchange, but big for me. Also you not tell how someone can able to sell 1.5 million RES token. *Me* Oct 13, 13:20 CST: Also question how you able to block my sell orders or account if price on another exchange with this token will go up? And for sure I will not change my sell orders, price will go up I think cos too low from ico now. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 13:25 CST: Also you not tell how someone can able to sell 1.5 million RES token. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In a certain period of time, a large number of orders that meet the platform price limit rules can satisfy such a quantity of transactions. Also question how you able to block my sell orders or account if price on another exchange with this token will go up? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your orders trigger our risk control system. That's why your account was blocked at that time. *Me* Oct 13, 13:40 CST: Now I think all the question and postion in our conversation almost full. I hope you understand why I text it, cos before Bibox was the most interested platform for me and I just wanna change something to better. If something will change in your postion hope you text to me. Also I will keep trade here. Nonsence but yes, I just want make you better, but some sorry to me want too. *Service* (Bibox) Oct 13, 13:48 CST: We believe that neither of us has done anything wrong. Because you don't know much about the rules of our platform, you have encountered difficulties in the process of trading. 

The Crypto King Report January 5th: KuCoin Picks (New One!), ICO Picks! BNTY (60%), KCS(140%), DRGN(200%), DBC, TRX, POWR, XVG, XRP, ADX (NEO link), ENJ(Wallet), NEO, PAY, ICX, XVG (UPDATE), STRAT, XEM, ARDR, IGNIS Future’s Price, and CONFERENCES
I appreciate all my loyal followers! For tips and strategy hours before being posted to the message boards follow on Reddit, Instagram: JaketheCryptoKing and Twitter: JbtheCryptoKing. And now on Discord: https://discord.gg/JfkWfUy (join the group to reach me directly and see posts early!). If the title is a foreign language to you read my Cryto-101 post and let’s go from there: https://redd.it/7m48ne . See posts first in the new Subreddit: TheCryptoKingdom. Remember in trading minutes matter, hours are eternities.
Let’s recap some winners from this week. The moonshots are now all officially up between 75% and 300%, let’s hear it for DBC, BNTY, DRGN, and KCS. Not only has the moonshot list had huge gains, we have had other 100%ers in the last 10 days. XRP, BNB, NXT (80% if you were late to the party), ENJ, NEO, ICX, and XEM. Very few coin predictions have been complete misses and even the biggest flops (XVG) solely took 2 extra days to let the negative hype decrease. I think the method I’ve implemented is working in finding undervalued coins and holding through the impending hype. We have had a very successful week make sure you don’t forget to tip the dealeresearcheRedditer who is putting in all this effort to share winners with you!
Today’s Moonshot KuCoin Pick: ELIX (priced at 9000 Satoshis, 1 week expectation 15000-20000 Satoshis).
Referral link for KuCoin: https://www.kucoin.com/#/?r=1cH1M
ELIX is located on KuCoin predominantly, and with a market cap of approximately 25 million this is a true moon potential. If it approaches a very reachable $100million or $200million market cap the value of the ELIX will increase x5 or x10. I am predicting this increase to take place within the next 4 months as ELIX makes its way to larger exchanges. With how much $ is being driven into crypto and the total market cap of all cryptos growing rapidly, I foresee ELIX riding the wave of momentum to being our 5th successful Moonshot pick.
ELIX does not have an enormous team but their team posts weekly updates, is active on social media, has many Q&A sessions and implements consistent expeditious development of their software. Unlike most coins ELIX has 2 full time Devs that have met every deadline to date (how is that for the crypto world? Setting the standard for professionalism!). Elixir’s purpose is ‘crowdfunding on the blockchain’ a blockchain niche that even the lending companies haven’t migrated into. The goal is decentralized crowdfunding, at a much lower cost. They also have a lending service and payment ledger which can be used to track and create loans based on agreed upon interest rates, length, and a detailed description. Mining has not yet been added but their approach is a holding method opposed to an electrical mining platform. With an extremely low market cap, a new niche blockchain sector, a price that hasn’t risen significantly with other alts this past week, and being 4/4 on past KuCoin picks; it is safe to say I have faith in ELIX.
I want to reiterate my position on holding DRGN, BNTY, and KCS, while continuing to accumulate DBC (until it has broken 100% returns). Profits from other exchanges should be rotated into KuCoin to take advantage of the unreasonable returns we’ve been able to attain there this week. The pick is ELIX for today! However, BNTY should continue its rise as it gets added to a new exchange. DRGN is not left to die by Disney and is leading the charge to get on Binance. KCS will win because it is one of the few exchanges still accepting new patrons, AND they give 90% of the trade commission back to KCS holders and as referrals.
I have approximately 30-40% of my portfolio in moonshots (I have a high risk tolerance) and every time 1 coin holding is disproportionately more valuable than the other I reallocate funds from the larger portfolio holding to the smaller holding. In this case DRGN is up huge (KCS is a hold for other reasons, the dividend and rapid site growth). DRGN being up almost 300% means 20-100% of your holding’s in DRGN should be sold and diversified between ELIX, DBC and KCS. There is no room for nostalgia. Make your %, and reallocate. If you are feeling attached to your KuCoin coins, sell ones on Binance and Bittrex and transfer more funds into Kucoin!
Tomorrow’s report will have another KuCoin pick as I was split between 2 for today, however with such a small market cap I wouldn’t be surprised if ELIX broke 1300 Satoshis today!
All below information has been updated on Friday at 6am EST. This will help individuals follow what information has been repeated/edited.
Today we will discuss which are the best choices to buy and hold for January. Personally I am using funds that were in BTC to buy new alts. I’d recommend adding funds, selling BTC, or selling alts you do not have faith in to be prepared for tomorrow’s January picks.
I am not recommending selling ANY of the January holds listed below. If you must to reallocate some proceeds that is your choice but I recommend each below equivalently, except STRAT. I believe besides moonshots, STRAT and NEO will be the top performers overall in January. NEO has conferences and guaranteed publicity the entire month and STRAT has a new ICO platform. I would make sure if you don’t already to have NEO and STRAT as large % holdings in your portfolio, with space for daily moonshots!
Make sure to open an account to trade: https://www.binance.com/?ref=15316928
January is the month of conferences. Between January and February of this year there will be more blockchain conferences and events than in all of 2017 combined. WAVES, ARK, and SONM are all at events in the first 3 weeks of January. In comparison to other coins speaking at the largest January events WAVES, ARK, and SONM’s price has not appreciated this week in correlation to the others. This provides an opportunity to purchase WAVES, ARK, and SONM at an undervalued price point on Binance. As their conferences in mid-January approach I expect their price to trend north rapidly, peaking on the day of, or day after the conference.
STRAT (BUY and HOLD) THIS IS MY MOST BULLISH COIN FOR JANUARY. I wouldn’t be surprised to see 100%-300% returns on a fairly safe crypto investment. STRAT is on the cusp of being able to host ICO’s for other companies. This is extremely valuable technology and they’ve announced it will be ready to go this week. Would anyone like to know the going rate of an ICO? 20-40BTC. Per ICO these small companies and their coin holders are making $250k-$600k at the current BTC prices. This is a very big business. They’ve also announced 2 Flagship ICOs that will be available on their STRATIS network in January. The platform to host ICOs goes live this week, and within 2 weeks we find out which ICOs STRAT is hosting. This should be a very positive 2 weeks for STRAT. As the crypto market continues to expand, the need for new ICO platforms will expand as well. STRAT is looking to have a very positive January.
ICX (BUY and HOLD) ICX has had about a 50% run this week. I am still very bullish on this coin. The Koreans love this little coin so much it is hosting its first blockchain conference in the tallest building in Seoul at the end of January. This will be enormous exposure for a coin which Koreans are already in love with. Their mainnet although once delayed was promised to be released prior to their January conference. Based on big news and Asian trading volume this should continue to trend North. Asians trade more than Americans. Koreans are the highest volume trading country in Asia, and they happen to love ICX. ICX should continue to trend north leading up to their conference in the end of January. This is an accumulate on dips until the January 25th conference.
TNB (BUY) has a BETA version of the Android and IOS wallet being released this month. Being able to take your funds with you is exceptionally important. Having a good looking interface is equally important. TNB looks to accomplish both tasks this month. It is also one of the cheapest coins on Binance, a plus for those looking for cheap coin acquisitions!
TRX (BUY) but did I miss the boat? It is never easy buying into a coin up 100% in a day. However, TRX has a game coming out this month. I do not know if you played Cryptokitties but it crashed the Ether network. TRX is a much faster and less expensive network to process information on. I expect the game this month to be the second that monetizes gaming through cryptocurrency leading to TRX’s short term success. I’d expect another 100-300% returns leading up to the release of a game on their TRX platform.
POWR(BUY), is a semi-finalist in an event coming up on January 9th. This event should provide plenty of exposure for one of the few ICOs supported by a government (Australia). A county that struggles with power grid failure could succeed in implementing the first cryptocurrency related directly to trading power, electricity on the blockchain. I expect a strong 2 weeks from POWR.
ENJ (BUY and HOLD), Did you see yesterday’s gains? I hope you listened on this one! Enjin is coming out with a Minecraft Plugin and Digital Wallet for your phone. The coin is a token designed specifically for gaming, a quickly expanding realm for digital currency. With a Minecraft Plugin and Digital Wallet being completed shortly this coin should continue to appreciate. They are also running a promotion giving away free ENJ on the Minecraft platform to get users involved. What could be a better boost to your coin value than a working Minecraft Plugin and a brand new wallet?
XVG update! Anyone see what ended up happening? The protocol was implemented yesterday and XVG jumped over 30%. Had you held instead of folding your weak hands you would have broken even on the trade and rotated into something new. XVG may continue to trend north given its protocol has been finalized. They gave me enough of a scare, I am going to stick to my other safer options. However, to the haters that tore my board apart 2 days ago, you need cojones to play this game. Cojones would have let you wait 48hrs to watch the Dev team finalize the project or let the negative hysteria die down. Both I said would happen with time.
XRP, was one of my first “Coinbase Picks” and it looks like it is finally coming to fruition. It seems we are on the cusp of general acceptance by banks and credit cards of the Ripple, and Coinbase seems to be eager to add the 2nd largest Coin by market cap. I expect XRP to go from the $3.00 price point to $7-$10 upon immediate listing on CB. Still room for a 100-200% profit this month if you get in prior to being added to CB!
ARDR(BUY) platform successfully launched Jan 1st. All those NXT you’ve been holding for the free IGNIS are used specifically on the ARDR block chain. With a new platform and coins to be used on it this will be a positive week for ARDR with exceptionally high returns correlated with the new platform and IGNIS’s continued appreciation. I believe ARDR and its new network will experience positive publicity and a successful launch of IGNIS. I would continue to buy and hold as the ARDR network gets rolling.
XEM(BUY), They had their pop yesterday! If you were invested I’ve been yelling this one for 2 weeks! Each coin has a specific reason for their being undervalued. Catapult, which is version 2.0 of NEM is to be released very soon. Following Catapult is a 4-week hackathon beginning the first week in January. There is nothing better to build awareness and test out their new Catapult network they’ll be releasing this week, then a worldwide hackathon and a new update to their NEM network. XEM will have a pop this week when Catapult goes live, followed by a 4-week awareness rally driven by a worldwide hackathon.
ADX (BUY), has had an impressive run but taken a recent dip. It remains a favorite of mine for multiple reasons. One of my favorite parts about ADX is they have a profitable platform already for coin holders. This is essential for every coin. Without a platform for a functioning coin, the coin is just unique code using up electricity. ADX advertised space on EasyJet boarding passes successfully last month and now is selling over 1 million more advertising spaces. This is a profitable coin with a strong future already occurring. ADX wins because NEO wins, Asian markets enjoy trading even more than the U.S. currently. This trend should continue as ADX continues its trend north.
NEO (BUY and HOLD), is an important hold in all portfolios as it is hands down the Asian Ether. NEO has one of the biggest January’s of any coin and is up over 60% since I recommended it originally. NEO has meetups in Dublin, Hamburg, Amsterdam, and London the first two weeks of January. Everyone sees the upcoming calendar and realizes the next 2 months will provide more exposure than any 12-month period in crypto history. NEO is the latest addition to the buy and HOLD list. They end the month of January speaking at 2 of the largest blockchain conferences in the world. This will be one of the strongest plays for January 2018.
PAY (BUY and HOLD I believe they have a strong platform and an upcoming rollout which will allow users to deposit crypto and receive cash at ATMs or use it as a Debit Card. This is an important transition as few enjoy the hassle laden process of transferring back to bank accounts.
One of my favorite ICOs of the year finished (Covesting), within 2 days of providing you guys the opportunity to get involved. Storiqa had some negative publicity the past 2 days. However, the team banded together and responded very responsibly. I have faith in both STORIQA and CRYPTERIUM (and have holdings in both).
STORIQA: I found the “Amazon of crypto marketplaces”: STORIQA. It has the most impressive advisors I’ve seen in a long time! This is key for early adoption among the community and when planning the likelihood of being chosen for a high caliber exchange. The price point is at $.005 per coin (price goes up soon), so at a 1 penny price point, ICO investors make 100% returns. 2 pennies mean you make a 300% return. I see Storiqa being priced between 2 and 5 pennies by the time it hits exchanges, based on the platform and advisors. If there is early adoption of their web platform (Amazon for crypto purchases) $1 would not be out of question in 6-12 months. That would be a 200x profit. ICOs are the chance for real moon opportunities prior to the general public being able to trade the coin, or really know about the technology. Get in early while you still have a 20% bonus, the hard cap will be reached soon! If interested in purchasing this ICO please use my link: https://tokensale.storiqa.com/?ref=6663944dff31989391d803ce-
Crypterium – The team is unreal and they are presenting at the Dubai Blockchain Intl’ in January. The ICO is also ending very soon! The bonus period ends in 1 day so I highly recommend getting an ether or 2 involved in this. The Dubai Blockchain Intl’ will greatly increase the number of individuals interested in holding Crypterium, (I make $0 off my posts and extensive research if you do purchase the ICOs please use my referral link): https://tokensale.crypterium.io/?ref=4a5381543424516aa2b4e3a6
