Calling @Shuruia to declare witch on those people who likes white theme on discord.
My eyes can't handle this kind and it's really bright.

How about 72 hours?

Come back as a writer if you ever decide to do so - if you didn't notice, we have a newsletter out and currently looking for writers through Media Team.
Once you join GFL, you truly can't escape. (unless you intentionally get banned)

I'm not worried.
What make you think about it? What if AI decides to go rogue and attempt to end humanity after learning dark history?
-
As the title says.... Do you think we should always rely on AI and technology as we grow and evolve as human?
With the technology getting more advanced, and people working on AI and improving them by having them generate and paint what we look like IRL (the result came out creepy via Twitter).
I do think at some point AI will outsmart us, possibly in near future.

Should you continue using the image, then I would use larger font or make the image larger. I would definitely do it if you're posting it elsewhere- you want it to be easy for people to look at it; otherwise: They wont. Treat it like a resume.
2For this, I can say that this will be improved in June's newsletter. Everything at its beginning isn't always perfect. At least, we're finally making this a thing.

I should post more often.

If you don’t mind, I can link you several ASL dictionary sites and amazon link to buy the book jut to learn. Might be difficult, but it’ll be worth it.
The book shouldn’t be expensive to buy.

I can verify this.

May 03 2018Bryophyta: The Moss Giant Boss
This week sees the release of Bryophyta, the new Moss Giant boss available to both members and free-to-play. Alongside that are your usual round of bug fixes whilst we continue development on the Chambers of Xeric: Challenge Mode, which will be ready for release very soon.
Bryophyta
Deep in the confines of the Varrock Sewers, a giant Moss Giant lurks... Get your hands on a Mossy key and take on Bryophyta, the newly discovered Moss Giant boss!
Bryophyta is an ancient and mystical giant Moss Giant who resides within the Varrock sewers, located to the east of Vannaka and near the Deadly red spiders. She is a mid-level boss and in order to enter her lair, players must first obtain a Mossy key from a Moss Giant. A Mossy key can be obtained from any Moss Giant, though if you have one as your current Slayer task you'll have an increased chance of receiving one. Each key can only be used once.
Upon entering her lair, you find yourself in an instanced room where the fight will begin. Make sure you come prepared however, as Bryophyta won't go down easily! Unlike other Moss Giants, she has a number of unique attacks and abilities you'll have to watch out for, such as a rather nasty poison effect!
As with Obor's instance, death within the instance will cause you to lose your items. Hardcore Ironmen beware, she will take your status too.
For those of you looking to face against Bryophyta head on, we'd recommend combat stats of 45 and above. Free-to-play players should also come equipped with an Antipoison potion, which can now be obtained from the Apothecary via the "Potions" option when right-clicking him for a cost of 1 Cadava berry, 1 Limpwurt root and 5 coins. Alternatively, you can bypass this by purchasing them directly from another player or via the Grand Exchange!
As always, with any challenge there should be a worthy reward! Bryophyta has an improved Moss Giant drop table in addition to having a chance of dropping Bryophyta's essence. Players can combine Bryophyta's essence with a Battlestaff to create the 1-handed members only Bryophyta's staff. Both Bryophyta's essence and Bryophyta's staff are tradeable.
Bryophyta's staff requires 30 Attack and 30 Magic to equip, and has similar stats to that of an Ancient staff, although it is slightly slower. Bryophyta's staff can be charged with up to 1000 Nature runes, which causes it to become untradeable and acts like the player is holding 1000 Nature runes whilst it is equipped. In addition to this, the staff also has a 1/15 chance of not spending a Nature rune when any spell that uses one is cast whilst it is equipped.
To make the staff tradeable, it requires uncharging. This process will destroy any of the Nature runes that were stored inside it.
PvP World Rota Changes
The current active rota is Period A. For the next two weeks, until Thursday 17th of May. More information can be found on the dedicated PvP World Rota page, which will be updated every two weeks.
- The Standard PvP world will be W24, in the USA.
- The High Risk PvP world will remain on W37, in the USA, as the German server will be subject to maintenance next week. We'll switch this with the next week's update to W43, as per the normal PvP World Rota.
- The F2P PvP world will be W117, in the USA.
-
The Bounty Hunter world will be W18, in the UK.
In Other News- Over-hitting a player’s remaining health in PvP will no longer interfere with the correct player receiving the loot.
- Desktop users will no longer be able to view the mobile controls guide.
- Birdhouses no longer ask how many seeds you wish to insert; they simply assume you wish to insert as many as possible.
- The Raw bird meat from Birdhouses is now placed on the ground rather than in your inventory when you harvest the houses.
- A typo has been fixed in the Tale of the Righteous quest.
- Players can now store penance hats without first needing to store the other equipment.
-
Trying to trigger a "Shove" special attack against a large NPC, or a player who's recently been Shoved with the Dragon spear, Zamorakian spear and Zamorakian hasta, should no longer stall your standard attacks with those weapons.

I'll start by saying that this film did amazingly well with the cliffhangers. To answer your questions:
29 minutes ago, Duc2000 said:- Why didn't Strange EVER use the time stone to reverse anything? He could have let Thanos kill Tony then reverse time, or done a thousand other things with it?
Because Thanos already have had reality stone, meaning Strange tried to put him into Mirror Dimension during the fight scene (It was amazing, and the most Naruto fight I've seen in real action), and instead it backfired, making it possible for Thanos to start a black hole.
31 minutes ago, Duc2000 said:- Why was it Red Skull who showed up and not someone else? Surely more than just him have tried to get the stones and been unworthy or whatever it was that sent him there?
In Captain America: The First Avenger, it is very likely that Red Skull physically handles the Tesseract, which opens a wormhole into space, sucking him into it, thus entering him into that planet.
33 minutes ago, Duc2000 said:- Why was the soul stone THERE? It was just in this random spot and never explained how it got there. Had it been there since it was created?
Most likely. I kinda thought that it was in Wakanda, given that in Black Panther, Wakandans had their ancient traditions.
34 minutes ago, Duc2000 said:- What was the point?
This film? It was about Thanos. There's a second film preparing to be a sequel to Infinity War. I'll have to say though, this is the perfect way to end the film with just supervillian winning, while heroes attempt to struggle.
Although, I've noticed that Doctor Strange told Tony that this is an endgame, which he said those stuff in Age of Ultron to Nick Fury while they were in Hawkeye's safehouse, and his nightmare is coming true. It could be that Tony is planning to get revenge and undo what Thanos did, with the remaining Avengers. (hence why those characters vanished with dust. They will come back). I've also noticed that on Avengers 4 onset, there's a tiny chance that there'll be some time machine or a flashback back to 2012 film.
Tony started it all (2008, Iron Man), and there's a chance that he's going to end it all(2019 Avengers 4) as Infinity Stone storyline conclusion.

Gah, you and your clickbait titles.

that would be cool just hope its true

If I recall correctly, there is a company that is going to save Toy-R-US by buying them, in attempt to revive and keep it alive.

I honestly do not like this idea. Just like how others have said, this would make GFL look bad with pay-to-win and other stuff. If one user gets banned, it's their own fault.

I'll say that this is rather interesting.

The Moss Giant Boss: Bryophyta

The Moss Giant Boss: Bryophyta
The purpose of this blog is to detail as much as possible prior to the poll going live in-game later this week to allow for player feedback. We're purposefully not revealing any details regarding the mechanics of the fight as to not ruin the surprise if it passes the polls!
Deep in the confines of the Edgeville dungeon, a giant Moss Giant lurks... Get your hands on a Mossy key and take on Bryophyta, the newly discovered Moss Giant boss!
Back in October 2016 we released Obor, a giant Hill Giant boss that was brought to life via a community suggestion. Since then, we've been inundated with requests to expand upon the idea and introduce more variations of the giants as bosses aimed towards mid-level players.
After seeing such a large demand for more of these bosses, the avid and extremely passionate Old School RuneScape player Mod Kira, who normally works within our IT department, took it upon himself to learn the ways of development during his TAPP time. Today we'd like to introduce to you his creation, the brand-new members only Moss Giant boss, Bryophyta.
The above image is of Bryophyta's in-game model.
Bryophyta is an ancient and mystical giant Moss Giant who resides within the Varrock sewers, located to the east of Vannaka and near the Deadly red spiders. She is a mid-level boss and in order to enter her lair, players must first obtain a Mossy key from a Moss Giant. A Mossy key can only be obtained from a Moss Giant if you have one as your current Slayer task, and each key can only be used once.
Upon entering the lair, you find yourself in an instanced room where the fight will begin. Make sure you come prepared however, as Bryophyta won't go down easily! Unlike other Moss Giants, she has a number of unique attacks and abilities you'll have to watch out for.
As with Obors instance, death within the instance will cause you to lose your items. Hardcore Ironmen beware, she may take your status too.
The Rewards
As always, with any challenge there should be a worthy reward! Bryophyta will have an improved Moss Giant drop table in addition to having a chance of dropping Bryophyta's essence. Players can combine Bryophyta's essence with a Battlestaff to create a brand-new 1-handed members only staff, Bryophyta's staff. Both Bryophyta's essence and Bryophyta's staff are tradeable.
Bryophyta's staff has similar stats to that of an Ancient staff, with the added effect of it being charged with up to 1000 Nature runes. Once charged, the staff becomes untradeable and acts like the player is holding 1000 Nature runes whilst it is equipped. In addition to this, the staff also has a 1/15 chance of not spending a Nature rune when any spell that uses one is cast whilst it is equipped.
The name "Bryophyta's staff" is not finalised. We welcome any community suggestions regarding a unique name for the staff.
To make the staff tradeable, it requires uncharging. This process will destroy any of the Nature runes that were stored inside it.
Poll Question #1
Should we add a new mid-level boss, Bryophyta the giant Moss Giant to Old School RuneScape? In order to enter her lair, players must obtain a Mossy key from a Moss Giant. A Mossy key can only be obtained from a Moss Giant if you have one as your current Slayer task. Each key can only be used once. Bryophyta would offer an improved Moss Giant drop table.Poll Question #2
If Bryophyta is added to the game, should she have a chance of dropping Bryophyta's essence? Bryophyta's essence can be combined with a Battlestaff to create a brand-new 1-handed members only staff, Bryophyta's staff. Both Bryophyta's essence and Bryophyta's staff are tradeable. The staff has similar stats to that of an Ancient staff, with the added effect of it being charged with up to 1000 Nature runes. Once charged, the staff becomes untradeable and acts like the player is holding 1000 Nature runes whilst it is equipped. To make the staff tradeable, it requires uncharging. This process will destroy any of the Nature runes that were stored inside it.Poll Question #3
If Bryophyta's staff is added to the game, should it also have a 1/15 chance of not spending a Nature rune when any spell that uses one is cast whilst it is equipped?
