Summoning and SRL/SCAR

I've been thinking about this for a while since I heard about Summoning, and fifty bucks says this wasn't an idea for creating a good skill.

This will KILL SRL/SCAR, assuming it is given to F2P.

Why?

sum·mon (sŭm'ən) Pronunciation Key
tr.v. sum·moned, sum·mon·ing, sum·mons

1. To call together; convene.
2. To request to appear; send for. See Synonyms at call.
3. Law To order to appear in court by the issuance of a summons.
4. To order to take a specified action; bid: summon the captain to surrender.
5. To call forth; evoke: "He summoned up a smile, though it seemed to take all his strength" (Colin Turnbull).


If Jagex set this up the way I think, then this is going to bring to RS "Outside" monsters to different environments, or copies of monsters in the same environment. There will be colors that would never* be seen in certain environments, and Jagex figured out 'IsUpText' a long time ago.

Maybe this is just my paranoia, we'll see, though.

i'm sorry but i think that's the stupidest thing i've heard in quite a while. Almost made me laugh out loud when i saw you posted the meaning of the word summoning. :p

I have feelings too you know, and since this is a community to for hacking a 12 year old game, it's very likely that some members wouldn't get it.
EDIT:Brother got out of hand, if you care, you can ask him about it.
EDIT2: But I will say this though - You are the very definition of a leech, and my brother was right - he showed me the script that you used to get into the Junior Members. It had "anti-ban" and "anti-randoms" copied out of one of JAD's old tutorials, one loop and then set up so that every three times you got a kill you would say something completely retarded, and it was even posted around the time that leeches had to post stuff to download other people's works.

Knowing Jagex, they would never release a new skill to F2pP.

Not necessarily, I was surprised when they gave F2P randoms.
Jagex has already displayed that it would rather mess up the game chasing autoers than do something real.

Yea, the last… how many… 4 that I can remember new skills were not released to f2p. The point of jagex always updating and releasing new quests and skills etc is to encourage people to fork out there money to become members. Jagex would probably make a new f2p quest before they do a skill.
I don't think jagex will ever release any new quests/skills to f2p. Ever.

Also since the Stats screen is already cramped they're probably gonna completely reformat that so we'll have to work on the GetSkill functions agian.

I hope you're right, but they didn't say anything about it being Members Only did they? I would think they would be in a hurry to take three lines saying that.

It won't be released to F2P, no way.

I doubt tht it won't be released i read somewhere its gunna be f2p also
There may be some restrictions …….
Cause when they mentioned abt extra bank space they sed it was for storing items for summoning(i don't remember the exact words)

I guess you mean this part of the Jagex post
We have decided to increase the number of bank spaces that everyone has! Members will now find that they have 32 extra slots to fill with items bought from the Grand Exchange, future Summoning trinkets or any other use that can be found for them.

Free players have not been left out, either. Eight more slots have been made available, so enjoy filling your newly-expanded bank!


If i read that correctly it just states about the summoning skill in the members part, not the F2P part.

It is more than likely going to be for f2p and p2p becuse it raises combat lvl and no mem skills do…
