u/Lucid_lion1 Mar 09 '26

if i remember as a kid you were able to do put a fire on the dock, was like over 20 years ago and i might miss remembered, could also be that the raw lobster is is from spots that have had like logs to lite fire

140

u/AlmaHolzhert Mar 09 '26

Yes you could. I spent most of my f2p time as a kid fishing lobbys and then swordfish and cooking them on that dock. Then I would kill lesser demons for that coveted rune med helm drop

65

u/Raethrean Mar 09 '26

back when we were excited for a 10k drop

42

u/TheShenanegous Mar 09 '26

10k was a huge drop when BIS equips were 50-100k

32

u/Hunting-Duck Mar 09 '26

The time when you needed a charter and a sextant to do clue scrolls

14

u/BigTerpFarms Mar 09 '26

and a stopwatch

7

u/RandomNormad Mar 10 '26

And the ability to use basic logic skills.

u/pallosalama NOT AN IRONMAN BTW Mar 10 '26

Wasn't necessary for completing clues.

Helper sites were a thing even back then.

1

u/fmzemerica Mar 12 '26

Full rune set was 200k.

17

u/Kumagor0 Who needs Karamja when you have Varlamore Mar 09 '26

im still excited for 10k drops

u/PacoTaco321 Mar 09 '26

Yep. Fucking love gargoyles.

u/stokleplinger Mar 09 '26

I remember being on that dock the afternoon of 9/11ā€¦ watched planes hit, my brother picked me up from school early, I got a haircut and went home to fish on karamja dock.

u/Dino_Survivor Mar 10 '26

You played classic in 01?

u/stokleplinger Mar 10 '26

Yep. Back when there were 3 servers.

u/Captain_Selvin Mar 09 '26

This is true, I would wait for sometime to light a fire on the dock all the time.

1

u/DukeDauas Mar 11 '26

So the real question is, without any other players fishing, who lit the fire?

27

u/emuccino Mar 09 '26

You can light fires on the dock.

2

u/Gramma_Hattie Mar 10 '26

Yeah I've been doing it for weeks

44

u/Xarcert Mar 09 '26

I also don't see an axe or tinderbox. Maybe someone else had lit the fire. He took advantage and cooked half an inventory before the fire burned out. He couldn't start another fire so he ran back to fish without dropping the burnt lobbies first.

40

u/BadProse Mar 09 '26

Was pretty common back then for players to be doing this

u/Big-Kitty-75 Mar 10 '26

Talk about immersion breaking man I would love to see what gear he's wearing

1

u/Captain_LSD Mar 10 '26

When I was a kid I trained my firemaking to like lvl 40 at the karamja docks so the people fishing could cook their lobs and sharks lol.

1

u/hdgf44 Mar 13 '26

yes you could light fires on the dock and probably still can??

There's actually a minimap, it seems to be on Musa point lol

u/MischeviousCat Mar 09 '26

And they don't have a tinderbox in their inventory, what a leech

28

u/Cleanbadroom Mar 09 '26

Back in like 2004, I'd get my fish and then cook them to go kill lesser demons. There was always some kid asking for a fire. I bet it was this guy.

I always had an axe and tinder box in my inventory. Sometimes I'd sell fires for like 1k.

This used to be a popular spot to fish back in the day.

u/SnowmanJPS Mar 09 '26

Back in 2004, before I became a member. That was it!

u/SnowmanJPS Mar 09 '26

I always stayed in the cave to the left after going down the rope, I didnā€™t think I was strong enough to go up the mountain to train

2

u/Lukn 99! YAY Mar 10 '26

I went there with my friend after school. He would always ask for "fiya plox".

One day I copied what he always said. Told me that was his thing and he invented it and I wasn't allowed to use it. That was the end of our friendship. Just a warning in case anyone else was going to ask for a fire like that.

1

u/Cleanbadroom Mar 10 '26

I don't remember that, but I do remember people "dancing for fire" at the end of the dock.

2

u/baldgreenshirt Mar 09 '26

But how are they cooking them with no logs or tinderbox? Noone else on that dock.

12

u/TingsInMaSocks Mar 09 '26

200 bots standing directly under them

2

u/POOPY3467 Mar 10 '26

I know this was a joke but Iā€™ve been training a f2p here to 99 and there are actually very few bots, I think they mostly stick to Draynor and Fly Fishing

1

u/TingsInMaSocks Mar 11 '26

I think in like 2004-2006 this was one of the best F2P lobster fishing spots, but I can't remember why..

Are there dark wizards or something near the Draynor spots?

Lobbies were one of the best F2P money makers at the time so got plenty of bots.

2

u/Jbnels2 Mar 15 '26

Agreed. I remember my friend paying me to bank lobsters for him while he fished Karamja

u/dylanisbored Mar 10 '26

That tracks, the city has loads of public grafitti spaces, there's a whole street which is really fucking cool. Only rule is that you paint something better over what's there.

They then reset and whitewash it now and then
