Hey everyone, we have a double feature in the times this week. Check it out, and then make sure to come over to the discussion on the forums.

On Monday evening, a new poll was added asking how often you visit the forums. Vote in it, and if you were one of the people that didn't vote 'Constantly', join in the discussion on the forum to explain your reasons.

It is very obvious that the rumor of all rares becoming untradeable at the beginning of the year isn't going to come true. However, anyone who watches the market prices of rares will agree that their prices are dropping dramatically, and the death of rares appear possible. Come to this week's hot topic, "Rares are dying......"

Finally, the minis page(games and quests) has been updated to add links to the Jade Vine 'minigame' and the Wizard Burial miniquest.

Before I announce the Times, I want to let everyone know that The Editor is on vacation, and sends their regards from some place very warm. This being said, we're going to have a month of nothing but panel writing and letters to the Editor. Hope you enjoy them.

This week, Armadyllo discusses the different views people have on an update and the general possibility of what each of us consider a 'good' update. After you read Jagex, I want a GOOD update!, remember to come over to the discussion topic with everyone else.

Along with the dozens of general updates on our guides, we have two new pages to help you out. If you're having trouble navigating the Scabaras Temple Dungeon during the new quest, our map will be sure to help you out. Also, we finally have a Tears of Guthix guide sitting with the other minigame pages.

Happy scaping!

Wow, 2008 already. Amazing! There have been so many changes in Runescape, it's been hard to keep up with everything. From the smallest graphical update, the the largest community impacting update, what was your favorite? Check out this week's hot topic "http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=725689

On Monday, a new poll was added asking about your Runescape resolutions. Have you made one? After you vote, head over to the discussion topic to talk about the results.

Finally, we have two "layout" updates that were released earlier. First, all of our skill calculators have a drop down box; allowing you to switch between typing in the level you wish to get and the experience you want. Skill calculators can be found on their menu page. Next, we have removed the "Gen sells" and the "Specialty store sells" sections of the item database, simply because the data would not be accurate most of the time.
