Hello everyone, this is my first attempt at a runescape instructable. My Name is Cloud 1802 with the space, so add me if you want. This instructable will cover:
Basic controls
how to make money
How to gain experience fast
Tactics for fighting and good places to go
FAQ step
Any questions or requests for new steps, comment on the faq step
Also, this is for non members, i don't want to pay, so don't tell me to.

Oh yeah, if you want to, you can be recruited into my clan. We have a base, I'll show you where it is when you join the clan. I'll be there at some time in the GMT day.

Step 1: Basic controls

The basic controls are:

Click on the screen or the map to say where you want to go. Clicking on items in your inventory makes you eat them, wield them, wear them, or use them, maybe with something else, depending on what the item is. eg.
Use cooked meat to eat it.
Click on armour or weapons to wield or wear them.
click on dough and click on an oven to bake bread
click a bar of metal on an anvil to smith it.

Camera controls:

up moves camera in an arc up over your character
down moves the camera down in an arc around your character
left/right move the camera sideways around your character.

Typing in: usually public chat. click on a friend in your list's name to send a private message, or if you are in clan chat, start each sentence with a / to send it to everyone in the clan.
