LMAO, I'm a total casual player, I absolutely love finding out how seriously some people take this game, it's so surreal, try explaining this stuff to your grandparents.
i'm a casual too, have been playing since 2015 and still have no 99's and it's absolutely crazy how people take this game so seriously, it's genuinely some people's whole lives
@@lytheus69 The moment I played this game for the first time in 2003-4 not knowing what to do where to go, as I made progress as to understanding how the game operates I was hooked. I think I've made over 60 accounts. I quit around I think 2010-11 it was because of the updated graphics and the 10x hits that was the final straw for my likings. Now that OSRS is around I just hop on every now and again. I can understand how some people take this game seriously, but I could totally understand it if you couldn't see the point in playing this game. It'll forever have a place in my mind that's for sure. The community felt different back then though.
@@omarbashar9161 Damn right. At least for me and my friends, it was about dicking around and not the grind. we'd play castle wars or clan wars for hours straight. Grinding for skills for us back in the day was few and far between except for maybe a new quest requirement. Nostalgia is a bitch cuz we'll never get that feeling back.

It just blows my mind those people actually think they become recognizable to most people in the game... like does anyone ever remembers what hosts they've used? I can't tell you the name of a single one and got 99 prayer long before wildy altar and even then just used whoever had the shortest name
@@Dannnzzy it says go to friends house but you didn't have to actually have them added, just looked whose name was shorter out of those being spammed and wrote that one, it's what i did anyway
I give them all the noted and cleaned marrentills I've got from herb boxes/misc-etc whenever I train prayer. Not rich but I figure it helps at least a little bit.
In the meanwhile i play without using PoH besides mine and sometimes (really really rarely) on friends house (i think i went to someone else including friends PoH like 5 times) still no have Energy pool XD because i just grind AFK skills and grind AFK SKILL it self XD on the bank doing nothing at all .. refusing to do quests like a pleb but yeah
I remember I wanted to house host a year ago and found out the process was regulated by a bunch of turbo nerds in a Discord and they required you have your house "inspected" and that you can only host when they say so. I'm still irritated about it, I love the house host update and I'm glad those guys got fucked.
That was never the case though. That is if you wanted to be in their CC. I never had that done. I did just fine and still do hosting from time to time. I looked into that CC and saw their crazy shit and immediately noped right out of there. I made my house nice for ME to use and so should you. Don't go crazy and put the alter 15 spots from the portal, but make it how you want it and host. I host for my friends and CC I am in and if others come, cool, if not, I will gladly enjoy talking to the steady 10-20 people that chat and train and have fun using my house because I just like to help people.
Lmao why follow their "rules" just do whatever you want. It's a game. Lol imagine being bullied into not doing something on an MMO game because of other players making "rules" about house hosting
The way these hosts organise this shit you'd think they're trying to run a brothel in a lucrative but competitive real life business environment. But nope just a 19 year old online computer game.
Osrs is just a reflection of the real life. When I played I was impressed by the amount of creative scams human could make. Luring in pvp, merching clans which dump early and leave followers with excess stock, some staking, begging scam/dicing, risking fighting pvp with ahk's auto eats and combos.. Even people viewbotting phishing on twitch. Other games have dodgy strategies like boosting, ddos etc but not on the same scale as osrs.
Most PMods are not bad. They play the game just like everyone else and go unnoticed if they don't say anything in game. Many of them do mute bots without saying anything.
I agree ive seen a jmod sit there watching gambling bots mining bots and wine of zammy bots and doing nothing. These guys seem to be doing some dodgy stuff and i fesr more and more jagex j mods and employees are getting in on rwt which is completely fucked
My friend was a big host for a while and I used to have fake convos with him to get more donations all the time lol can 100% confirm a fair bit of this video
lmao no one does anyway, they arent making 5 an hour this kid who said that is full of shit they prob made 2 or 3 bucks max and even then are we supposed to be impressed? thats chicken shit money
It cant be tax free if they want extra money from the goverment... else they have to put it up as work to gain an extra incole from the goverment wich will give a minumum of $300/monthly
If you're averaging 5m an hour if you're online 24/7 that's 3.6b in a month. 1m = around .50 USD. That's 1800 a month for sitting on your ass doing nothing. If you're smart you won't claim it as income on your taxes and then you can apply for social benefits like food stamps or assisted housing. If you go a step farther and qualify for disability that's around another 500 a month. All in all if you do everything perfectly you can expect about 2800 bucks a month or 33,600 a year. Considering you're doing practically 0 work I'd say that's a pretty good deal.
I've hosted a lot in W330 and I can confirm this entire video. I've had my alt accounts (That I used to advertise my house) mass reported by bots to get it autobanned. I also know for a fact there's certain hosts who account share to be on 24/7 pretty much. House hosting is a major gold income for people who are recognized and there constantly. I remember at times making 1-2m in 3-4 hours then suddenly a rich boy comes and donates like 20m. It's pretty much how it worked most days.
This is why I tend to use smaller hosts. I was a small, few hours a week, host myself in Yanille which was the much more chill place to host in. In Yanille there's a decent amount of people looking for hosts but only one on at a time usually, sometimes none. In fact in Yanille when one host needs to get off they let others know before hand so they can take over.
I remember hosting in actual old school rs world 30 and that was mostly about having fun fights in the basement while people used my altar and lecterns upstairs. I never made any money from it and actuality did legitimately pay noobs to advertise the party. Idk different times I guess. For sure a different mentality about the game.
Michel de Nostredame there’s a market for time and efficiency based playing all because of bonds. However that’s what brought people back to the game. If there were no bonds the game wouldn’t have regrown, however the people willing to p2p would be more willing to goof off than try to make as much gp as possible to the point where 2 bonds is a minute fraction of your monthly income. Now that 2 bonds is 10m you basically need maxed cb stats to keep up. Sad times indeed
OSRS is basically "solved" at this point, there are very few actual challenges to older players and nothing is captivating anymore, so it's all about profit and efficiency rather than fun.
@@gr8b8m85 honestly dude that's just mindset. Rs is so big theres always something fun to do. Believe me when I say you will enjoy it more if you slack off and just do fun stuff rather than efficiency driven stuff. I spent two days at castle wars basement recently, freezing, spearing, and luring noobs to one shot them with falling rocks. Honestly when you're maxed you should just fuck around with some friends rather than flip until you have infinite cash. Much more rewarding imo.
@@TheIcecreamtaco It wasn't bonds that did that. I don't even use bonds and I still feel myself playing "efficiently" and not "xp wasting"... Sadly the players and culture have just changed with age.
@@elonmusk2387 why do every rs player say nigga like yo youre probably white as fuck. Are u the type of white wigger nerd who wears socks and nike sandals to precalc and live in a 750k house but claim u had a hard upbringing?
Imagine meeting someone irl and they ask what you do, and you're like "I have 99 construction in a 20 year old game for kids, and I let people use the house I created, and they donate in game coins to me for it. I have wars with other people that do the same thing."
I think every mill is worth like 90cents? So if that is the case, if they make somewhere around 200m to 1 Bill a week that's a lot of income playing RS on the side if they sold their income to Gold farm sites. I'd do it if I didn't care about RS.
@@xMetalchurchx lol what an evil sack of garbage you are. GTFO with pretending these very few, cherry picked hosts represent the majority when you KNOW they dont. Putrid human garbage like you spewing lies.
I've been playing this game for 10+ years and have never even thought about donating to a host. Pretty crazy how many people donate to them. I never knew :o
I saw OGRockstar at 0:35. I liked him because he actually would talk to me and we even had inside jokes. He had that one fish weapon that we would always call "Feeesh". He also would cheer me on when I was doing Barrows and stuff. He even added me as a friend. I miss him honestly. He hasn't hosted in awhile.
As a host in w330 Yanillie I made over 700m+ hosting my altar with just 75 construction best 25m investment I made. Glad I did it and started hosting to help players and in return they helped me. In one night I remember two players big ballers from the duel arena getting their 99 prayer they both traded me 100m then 150m. This was like a year ago. Man I was so happy!! Then lost it all due to staking and pking. But I would get 40ms for like 7 hours of just standing helping other players. Sometimes it’ll be 5 hours dry no one tipping but then I’ll push it for another 5 and get them big baller players to tip out bc I was open for so long. Good times.
Newish POH Host here. I was hosting the last few days and even reached top of the birdhouse ad for many hours. I kicked one player for a very minor attitude problem and he retaliated by sending over a dozen clanmates in my house to harass me, as well as protesting me outside after being kicked claiming I scam players for donations. There were atleast 4 dedicated protest spammers. This went on for over two hours before they ran out of steam. This decimated my attendance and prompted dozens of players to question me about the claimed scamming. This kind of reputation stab felt like a concentrated effort of cyberbullying due to my sudden popularity and Max house. Beware there are some toxic legions out there that will do anything to destroy the competition.
I used to host in rs3, it was suuuuper cliquey in the host community, and there was this 1 dude that would rent out his advert bots by the hour and he would literally ddos you for advertising for yourself or if you hired someone else to advert. There were a number of catfish hosts that pretended to be girls to get more donos as well, but the core group of us actually did genuinely like each other and get along, and we'd all support each other by donating leftover advert time, hanging out in each others' houses when we weren't hosting, or sending guests to our friends' houses when we had to stop hosting. It had its shitty parts but it also had some really fun and wholesome stuff too. It's just a matter of perspective.
This post and now video are specific to the hosts in Rimmington. As a part of the Yanille hosting community I just want to set the record straight. First off we are all friends, secondly i have never made more than 500k an hour and my biggest donation was 2m. Yes hosts do it for tips, of course we look for tips, but its not this dark in Yanille. We coordinate with each other and try to ensure there is only one person hosting at a time. What I'm getting at is there isn't this much toxicity in the entire hosting community. Yanille is not nearly this toxic, aside from the occasional foot fetish guy.
What would you guys do if some random started hosting without talking to you guys? Obviously you said y'all are different and not shady, so you'd ask him nicely to talk to you guys to schedule a time he can host in yanille. He says no and starts hosting 24/7, what would you guys do?
@@markcurry3083 not sure that situation hasnt come up as far as i know of. Usually we ask them to join the clan so we arent fighting over who is hosting, ive yet to see them not join.
Man I used to Host House Parties all the time back in 2009 with 83 Construction and it was Fantastic. An actual Dungeon and Kitchen along with the Guilded Altar brought skillers, Pkers and people who just want to Hang out. To see house parties today just has no soul into it....all the rooms are the exact same upon entering. There's nobody in dungeons anymore and you cant even tell if the conversations are genuine or if you're talking to the Hosts alt account to Tithe more money off of you. ...what a world
@@ColonelloRS now that I'm thinking about this, one time when I was in Drew G's house and brought up chaos altar being half as expensive, the host immediately commented on how much safer it was to train in his house. Also other low level accounts started agreeing with him which was strange...now it's all making sense...
@@NWLegacyChannel wot? Wildy altar is the best method, if you don't take noted you rately get pked before you finish your inventory. Then you suicide or ask to be killed so u respawn and grab another inventory faster than teleing out. You can get 99 prayer for 30m lol!
Imagine being this much of a psychopath, lying and manipulating, starting rumors and 'spying' on people, just to get a few pixels of a bow or a scythe on your browser game character.
From someone who has hosted a bunch also. It really is hit or miss when it comes to donations. Hes really over exaggerating a bit. A lot of hosts are toxic. But there are some there genuinely just to help and chill and hopefully make a little bit of money. Its unfair to label all hosts the way he is. Ive spent many nights and days barely getting any tips whatsoever. Not to mention the host is taking time out of their day to help lots of people save a ton of time and literal mils saved training prayer. With all that money saved, i think its only fair the people using that altar leave a donation to the person sacrafising their time and xp to make cheaper prayer training possible.
“This guy put 600 or more hours into hosting” Was that a typo in the script? 600 isn’t a lot really when you think about how many hours people amass in osrs
"There are plenty of hosts out there who are reasonable normal people, who wont try to talk you into donating to them." Honestly I dont think you articulated well enough. The shady tactics are shit. However, you delivered a message that seems very anti-donation overall. Tips are pretty much the only incentive to host. No tips=no hosts=hope you have your own maxed house. I'm not siding with name-brand hosts, but tipping your host SOMETHING should be encouraged.
@omgwtf696969 the majority of players who host maxed houses have spent plenty of time experiencing everything else. They've done the grind....hence the maxed house. And sorry but if you are at the point in the game where you are worried about offering d bones at somebodies gilded, you can throw 2k at a tip jar without it affecting you
@omgwtf696969 plenty of people help in other ways. Answering noob question, giving items or gp to low levels. And you are right that they could go pvm or whatever else for wealth....and if hosting becomes not worth it because nobody is tipping, they will. And then, no hosts. Better hurry up and drop that 250 mil to max your own poh. Your point is basically that "people need an incentive to spend large amounts of their time in a way that is beneficial to you". Welcome to the world. Perhaps this doesn't apply to you, maybe your a saint. I could use some help around the property, can I expect you to come over and dedicate hours of your day every day helping me for no benefit to you simply because I need the help? Can I come over to your house and use all of your shit because I'm not to the point in life where mine is as nice as yours? I wont give you anything for it, and you need to stand there lighting a candle every 2 minutes lol. The point is, a few k is NOTHING and can be made in about a minute. Just throw it to show appreciation
Thanks for your content, this is very instructive and I enjoy your bot videos as well, they shed a lot of light into the situation the game is in atm, and they're great technical info. One thing that I find interesting is that, to the eyes of the average player who isn't caught up with the reality of just how crazy money farming, real world trading, hacking, and all of these messed up things are in the game's community, a lot of these updates are just dressed up as convenient as opposed to a solution to an ongoing problem. I think that, one way or another it does keep a small portion of the community oblivious to these problems.
"OSRS HOST ARE BREAKING LAW" .. is a little much to take in fer the title, an its not 100%true here wit whats going on,, but I think you covered alotta good topics on the W330 hosting && you're ryt about everything, jus the title of ur vid a lil ovrkill. Lol. Love ur Vids keep em comin!
I’ve only ever done gilded for a total of 2 or 3 hours. I had no idea back then but I remember this update happening and thinking “oh that’s great now they don’t need to spam so much to advertise that’s great” and the most I’ve ever interacted with a host was to ask if I could use their alter to pray the gay away (lol), I’m glad I never donated and thinking back I see so many of these tactics having happened. Glad it’s kind of over. Thanks for the vid, thumbs up
I don’t see the big issue. I really can careless tbh. I’m only there to get my prayer up and dip. Majority of the stuff you pointed out were basic sales tactics. If I’m having my house open for guest, I would try to maximize on the amount of gp I get. This is too drama over a video game lmao
I did hosting 6 hours per day for 3 days, i made barely a mil in total. This was a few years ago before all the cool things were added to constructions
Ive been part of the hosting group since november 2018 and before jagex changed hosting, they also had a whole discord dedicated to sharing this information. Its still up and in use too, also the advert bots that were used can still be used via discord commands to advert who ever is live at the time
@@BBB-pz7er because of what's detailed in the post. He says a lot of them have fucked up dietary and mental health, relying on microwave pizzas to eat every day and they probably have shit hygiene and sleep/fitness habits as well. It's 33k/yr to sit on your ass staring at a screen for 16 hours a day and become a RuneScape slave while competitors try to blackmail, dox, or otherwise cut your throat while you desperately beg for a few dollars. A beggar probably makes more per day than they do. A Costco worker definitely does, and they get benefits and a stable future if they want it, access to cheap fresh produce and other consumable items, clothes, etc. on top of a host of activities to keep them in shape and a group of co-workers to socialize with. It sounds like shit. I feel bad for anybody who makes this their career.
Omg! Thank you!!! I'm an OSRS host on 330 'Kill Canada' is my IGN and I've experienced this allot ! Thank you so much, please know everyoneone we aren't all like this! Best part of my day is getting to meet everyone, so many different and unique people!
Wow, I spent alot of time in hosted houses back in the day.. didnt even realize at all how dark hosting can be..just started playing again a few months ago and was recently thinking about hosting so thanks for the heads up lol..great video man keep up the awesome work!
Glad I saw this video. The most I've ever donated to hosts was probably about 30k. I will never donate again after hearing this. I've noticed some shady stuff too like a host logging out and another host said they wouldn't be back for a while so just use their house. I thought nothing of it at the time but this provides me with a brand new perspective. It's pathetic how this level of toxicity permeates every facet of OSRS whether it is pvp, pvm, or skilling.
I have so much I want to say on this topic through personal experience, but honestly not sure I should. All i can say is thanks for this video. It brought a lot to light that is very important the community knows. Tbh it brings closure.
How can I get in touch with you Colonello? I've been deeply rooted in this community for years, from both sides: host and accounts that advertise. I'd love to offer some more information, especially about the runescape 3 side, and even challenge some of the points in this video.
As a noob thank you for the heads up! I've been using theBound, and I have no idea if they are reputable or not. How does one find out who the bad hosts are?
Hey, I'm the host who wrote the original Reddit post this video is based on. As a person who's just popping in to use the altar and quickly get out, you might not be able to tell tbh. There are things to look for though. From what I saw many of the worst "toxic" hosts had serious drug addictions IRL and/or were incredibly emotionally unintelligent and reactive. If they got mad very easily or would open up to talking about drugs like meth/heroin in private. There's a chance, I guess, that they're one of these hosts. Idk how 2:2 it is though. But it was a definite pattern (with 3 people I'm thinking of) Also anyone who's beyond cheerful 24/7 and never seems to have any emotionally upbeat down-time. Or considers themselves to be an angelic humanitarian to the OSRS community. Short of never-removing the tip jar and rejecting all trades. MAJOR red flags. The toxic hosts all put themselves on a pedestal. They also always had people in their house bitching about some drama they probably caused. Although they'd tried very hard to censor this or pull players into other rooms to talk to them away from the other guests. Those are the main things that come to mind. To truly spot them with ease, you have to be another host or regularly be around them and their house for weeks on end and watch the chat very carefully. Any repetition that takes place, even jokes, is 100% an effort to garner good-will and more donations. It's typically recycled every 1-2 weeks (usually in different time zones), because you know it's not the same people inside your house.
I commented on the original thread and pretty much understood exactly what Orca went through. I had all the same stuff happen and I pulled out when I made a profit from building my house. It's a shame, really, cause there were some really chill people in W330. Orca was one of them, but it was rather obvious when "new hosts" came by and instantly all the other hosts would be barraged by drama and bs, or I'd get rather inane comments about my PoH. I think what pissed hosts off was me telling people how much I was actually making, cause at the time there wasn't many hosts. I told people that I made quite a few mill and even had an old notepad document of people who donated to me. I think I made about 100-150m from just standing around. Was pretty wild, lol. Hopefully this update improved it. I haven't been back since 99 prayer. I might go back at some point for fun, though.
Easy solution. Disable the autotyping function outside of house portals. Force people to use the board. Also have someone look into any Pmod mutes that happen in or around house portals. If they're muting people for nothing, permanent ban. Period, no exceptions. I haven't used someones house for prayer in a long time, but even when I did, I never donated. The people that are donating are perpetuating this kind of behavior, even if its only 5k. There are better alternatives to gilded altars anyway. The chaos altar cuts the cost roughly in half compared to a gilded altar, and ensouled heads are cheaper than that.
I used to host and can confirm that the only money was when you did more than 12 hours, some times hosted for 30 hours. I would have to have a friend keep the burners lit while I went to the toilet or even made food. One day, a host came along and started an argument in my house and decided to hold drop parties in his own, placing his spammer right underneath my own and when I spoke about it in the 07 alter FC, they banned me for "creating drama". I never hosted again as it was too toxic. It was great money at the time but there are easier ways now.
appreciate the content! I'm not a player of rs, but I love this content. A suggestion that would benefit viewers like me would be introducing what the concept of "hosting" is before diving into the video, and instead of referencing "the latest patch", explain the changes from the patch. Thanks!
This whole time I thought hosting was purely just for being friendly. To make it competitive to any degree is utterly bizarre and ridiculous to me. Pathetic too.
P mods can only temp mute, and only under circumstances where the user has spoken recently. If an abusive mute is appealed, p mods are demoted, and sometimes even banned.
JohnoR is still pretty hyped up trying to get a few different house hosts banned. He seems to be the last toxic host left honestly. I’ve personally never seen someone as toxic as that dude.
Yeah I was in a house just the other day and host was obv talking to an alt saying stuff like I'll double any donation and stuff along those lines. And trying to talk some pure into giving ranger set and saying to ask the host that they trust them with a large amount of gold etc

I remember I wanted to house host a year ago and found out the process was regulated by a bunch of turbo nerds in a Discord and they required you have your house "inspected" and that you can only host when they say so. I'm still irritated about it, I love the house host update and I'm glad those guys got fucked.
That was never the case though. That is if you wanted to be in their CC. I never had that done. I did just fine and still do hosting from time to time. I looked into that CC and saw their crazy shit and immediately noped right out of there. I made my house nice for ME to use and so should you. Don't go crazy and put the alter 15 spots from the portal, but make it how you want it and host. I host for my friends and CC I am in and if others come, cool, if not, I will gladly enjoy talking to the steady 10-20 people that chat and train and have fun using my house because I just like to help people.
Lmao why follow their "rules" just do whatever you want. It's a game. Lol imagine being bullied into not doing something on an MMO game because of other players making "rules" about house hosting
@@bamfzez1242 yeah he should of told them to buzz off
The way these hosts organise this shit you'd think they're trying to run a brothel in a lucrative but competitive real life business environment. But nope just a 19 year old online computer game.
Osrs is just a reflection of the real life. When I played I was impressed by the amount of creative scams human could make. Luring in pvp, merching clans which dump early and leave followers with excess stock, some staking, begging scam/dicing, risking fighting pvp with ahk's auto eats and combos.. Even people viewbotting phishing on twitch.
Other games have dodgy strategies like boosting, ddos etc but not on the same scale as osrs.
PMods should be removed, they either do nothing and chat in w1 ge while there's hundred of bots around them or they abuse their powers
And most of them are like 14 years of age.
Most PMods are not bad. They play the game just like everyone else and go unnoticed if they don't say anything in game. Many of them do mute bots without saying anything.
I agree ive seen a jmod sit there watching gambling bots mining bots and wine of zammy bots and doing nothing. These guys seem to be doing some dodgy stuff and i fesr more and more jagex j mods and employees are getting in on rwt which is completely fucked
gee wizz Lmao what, everyone is grown and old as hell in RS.
Pmods can't ban bots.
My friend was a big host for a while and I used to have fake convos with him to get more donations all the time lol can 100% confirm a fair bit of this video
Ever felt pathetic?
@@ElliotNess-jg8gt oh yeah, not because of that though
Simple, just don’t donate to them lol
But... don't you want to make girls on the internet happy?
Just put a gram on the visa to show the boys you are cool
lmao no one does anyway, they arent making 5 an hour this kid who said that is full of shit they prob made 2 or 3 bucks max and even then are we supposed to be impressed? thats chicken shit money
A lot of hosts are involved with RWT. A level 3 can go and dump 150m "donation"
Bro you and I both have come to the same conclusion lmao. As far as breaking the law... 🤷♂️
Imagine spending your time in game to make minimum wage, and calling it "quite a lot" lmfao
Shark Bait it probably beats work
It cant be tax free if they want extra money from the goverment... else they have to put it up as work to gain an extra incole from the goverment wich will give a minumum of $300/monthly
looks like someone here has some experience
Imagine spending alot of your time on a game and earning nothing.
If you're averaging 5m an hour if you're online 24/7 that's 3.6b in a month. 1m = around .50 USD. That's 1800 a month for sitting on your ass doing nothing. If you're smart you won't claim it as income on your taxes and then you can apply for social benefits like food stamps or assisted housing. If you go a step farther and qualify for disability that's around another 500 a month.
All in all if you do everything perfectly you can expect about 2800 bucks a month or 33,600 a year. Considering you're doing practically 0 work I'd say that's a pretty good deal.

@@GoldberryVideos Drew G alt confirmed boys, you heard it from the vid. hes trying to convince us to donate..

Lol is all good glad you came through
I've hosted a lot in W330 and I can confirm this entire video. I've had my alt accounts (That I used to advertise my house) mass reported by bots to get it autobanned.
I also know for a fact there's certain hosts who account share to be on 24/7 pretty much. House hosting is a major gold income for people who are recognized and there constantly.
I remember at times making 1-2m in 3-4 hours then suddenly a rich boy comes and donates like 20m. It's pretty much how it worked most days.
Sounds like being an ebeggar lmao
This is why I tend to use smaller hosts. I was a small, few hours a week, host myself in Yanille which was the much more chill place to host in. In Yanille there's a decent amount of people looking for hosts but only one on at a time usually, sometimes none.
In fact in Yanille when one host needs to get off they let others know before hand so they can take over.
Cuz u have bone noter in Rimington right now . not efficient to train at yanille nowdays
I remember hosting in actual old school rs world 30 and that was mostly about having fun fights in the basement while people used my altar and lecterns upstairs. I never made any money from it and actuality did legitimately pay noobs to advertise the party.
Idk different times I guess. For sure a different mentality about the game.
The game's audience has grown up and what's used to be fun is now time and efficiency based :/
Michel de Nostredame there’s a market for time and efficiency based playing all because of bonds. However that’s what brought people back to the game. If there were no bonds the game wouldn’t have regrown, however the people willing to p2p would be more willing to goof off than try to make as much gp as possible to the point where 2 bonds is a minute fraction of your monthly income. Now that 2 bonds is 10m you basically need maxed cb stats to keep up. Sad times indeed
OSRS is basically "solved" at this point, there are very few actual challenges to older players and nothing is captivating anymore, so it's all about profit and efficiency rather than fun.
@@gr8b8m85 honestly dude that's just mindset. Rs is so big theres always something fun to do. Believe me when I say you will enjoy it more if you slack off and just do fun stuff rather than efficiency driven stuff.
I spent two days at castle wars basement recently, freezing, spearing, and luring noobs to one shot them with falling rocks. Honestly when you're maxed you should just fuck around with some friends rather than flip until you have infinite cash. Much more rewarding imo.
@@TheIcecreamtaco It wasn't bonds that did that. I don't even use bonds and I still feel myself playing "efficiently" and not "xp wasting"...
Sadly the players and culture have just changed with age.
Now the biggest method I’ve seen is spamming Zs in front of your account name so its at the top of the board
this sounds like how middle-low viewercount twitch streamers treat each other

Imagine meeting someone irl and they ask what you do, and you're like "I have 99 construction in a 20 year old game for kids, and I let people use the house I created, and they donate in game coins to me for it. I have wars with other people that do the same thing."
I think every mill is worth like 90cents? So if that is the case, if they make somewhere around 200m to 1 Bill a week that's a lot of income playing RS on the side if they sold their income to Gold farm sites. I'd do it if I didn't care about RS.

I've been playing this game for 10+ years and have never even thought about donating to a host. Pretty crazy how many people donate to them. I never knew :o
I kinda just visit a new house host each time personally for variety even if some could be less efficient than others
I saw OGRockstar at 0:35. I liked him because he actually would talk to me and we even had inside jokes. He had that one fish weapon that we would always call "Feeesh". He also would cheer me on when I was doing Barrows and stuff. He even added me as a friend. I miss him honestly. He hasn't hosted in awhile.
a pmod saying pmods have too much power?
As a host in w330 Yanillie I made over 700m+ hosting my altar with just 75 construction best 25m investment I made. Glad I did it and started hosting to help players and in return they helped me. In one night I remember two players big ballers from the duel arena getting their 99 prayer they both traded me 100m then 150m. This was like a year ago. Man I was so happy!! Then lost it all due to staking and pking. But I would get 40ms for like 7 hours of just standing helping other players. Sometimes it’ll be 5 hours dry no one tipping but then I’ll push it for another 5 and get them big baller players to tip out bc I was open for so long. Good times.
That’s crazy..I never even thought of this being a thing..holy shit
Yeah it is something indeed
Newish POH Host here. I was hosting the last few days and even reached top of the birdhouse ad for many hours. I kicked one player for a very minor attitude problem and he retaliated by sending over a dozen clanmates in my house to harass me, as well as protesting me outside after being kicked claiming I scam players for donations. There were atleast 4 dedicated protest spammers. This went on for over two hours before they ran out of steam.
This decimated my attendance and prompted dozens of players to question me about the claimed scamming. This kind of reputation stab felt like a concentrated effort of cyberbullying due to my sudden popularity and Max house.
Beware there are some toxic legions out there that will do anything to destroy the competition.
Your crazy underrated dude really top notch stuff you cover always keeps me interested! Keep it up man!
I used to host in rs3, it was suuuuper cliquey in the host community, and there was this 1 dude that would rent out his advert bots by the hour and he would literally ddos you for advertising for yourself or if you hired someone else to advert. There were a number of catfish hosts that pretended to be girls to get more donos as well, but the core group of us actually did genuinely like each other and get along, and we'd all support each other by donating leftover advert time, hanging out in each others' houses when we weren't hosting, or sending guests to our friends' houses when we had to stop hosting. It had its shitty parts but it also had some really fun and wholesome stuff too. It's just a matter of perspective.
This post and now video are specific to the hosts in Rimmington. As a part of the Yanille hosting community I just want to set the record straight. First off we are all friends, secondly i have never made more than 500k an hour and my biggest donation was 2m. Yes hosts do it for tips, of course we look for tips, but its not this dark in Yanille. We coordinate with each other and try to ensure there is only one person hosting at a time. What I'm getting at is there isn't this much toxicity in the entire hosting community. Yanille is not nearly this toxic, aside from the occasional foot fetish guy.
What would you guys do if some random started hosting without talking to you guys? Obviously you said y'all are different and not shady, so you'd ask him nicely to talk to you guys to schedule a time he can host in yanille. He says no and starts hosting 24/7, what would you guys do?
@@markcurry3083 not sure that situation hasnt come up as far as i know of. Usually we ask them to join the clan so we arent fighting over who is hosting, ive yet to see them not join.
Man I used to Host House Parties all the time back in 2009 with 83 Construction and it was Fantastic. An actual Dungeon and Kitchen along with the Guilded Altar brought skillers, Pkers and people who just want to Hang out. To see house parties today just has no soul into it....all the rooms are the exact same upon entering. There's nobody in dungeons anymore and you cant even tell if the conversations are genuine or if you're talking to the Hosts alt account to Tithe more money off of you. ...what a world
Oh boy had hosting ever got so advanced I remember making like 10m/hr by having a basic house with just an altar.
Imagine still training prayer at a gilded altar in 2019...
True, wildy altar or bust :)
@@ColonelloRS now that I'm thinking about this, one time when I was in Drew G's house and brought up chaos altar being half as expensive, the host immediately commented on how much safer it was to train in his house. Also other low level accounts started agreeing with him which was strange...now it's all making sense...
Lmao wildy altar sucks. Noobs go there who want to get pk'd, or maxed mains with Bulwakr
@@NWLegacyChannel wot? Wildy altar is the best method, if you don't take noted you rately get pked before you finish your inventory. Then you suicide or ask to be killed so u respawn and grab another inventory faster than teleing out. You can get 99 prayer for 30m lol!
Imagine feeling superior because you have a cool house in an online video game...
Imagine being this much of a psychopath, lying and manipulating, starting rumors and 'spying' on people, just to get a few pixels of a bow or a scythe on your browser game character.
RWT is a thing
From someone who has hosted a bunch also. It really is hit or miss when it comes to donations. Hes really over exaggerating a bit. A lot of hosts are toxic. But there are some there genuinely just to help and chill and hopefully make a little bit of money. Its unfair to label all hosts the way he is. Ive spent many nights and days barely getting any tips whatsoever. Not to mention the host is taking time out of their day to help lots of people save a ton of time and literal mils saved training prayer. With all that money saved, i think its only fair the people using that altar leave a donation to the person sacrafising their time and xp to make cheaper prayer training possible.
“This guy put 600 or more hours into hosting”
Was that a typo in the script? 600 isn’t a lot really when you think about how many hours people amass in osrs
Man, never knew this stuff existed. That's pretty pathetic
I’ll still never understand why people take ANY GAME, this serious.... play the game like it’s meant to be played, or don’t play at all. Holy shit.
That Red 6.7 Guy $$$
Sounds like the mega corporations in our normal every day life :p
Osrs is getting too meta.
wow this is crazy because what you discussed in this video happened back in like 2011 but now its weird to see how it was a back door kinda thing
"There are plenty of hosts out there who are reasonable normal people, who wont try to talk you into donating to them."
Honestly I dont think you articulated well enough. The shady tactics are shit. However, you delivered a message that seems very anti-donation overall. Tips are pretty much the only incentive to host. No tips=no hosts=hope you have your own maxed house. I'm not siding with name-brand hosts, but tipping your host SOMETHING should be encouraged.
@omgwtf696969 the majority of players who host maxed houses have spent plenty of time experiencing everything else. They've done the grind....hence the maxed house. And sorry but if you are at the point in the game where you are worried about offering d bones at somebodies gilded, you can throw 2k at a tip jar without it affecting you
@omgwtf696969 and the community is so toxic, new players are made or broken long before this point. Tipping doesn't affect that whatsoever
@omgwtf696969 plenty of people help in other ways. Answering noob question, giving items or gp to low levels. And you are right that they could go pvm or whatever else for wealth....and if hosting becomes not worth it because nobody is tipping, they will. And then, no hosts. Better hurry up and drop that 250 mil to max your own poh. Your point is basically that "people need an incentive to spend large amounts of their time in a way that is beneficial to you". Welcome to the world. Perhaps this doesn't apply to you, maybe your a saint. I could use some help around the property, can I expect you to come over and dedicate hours of your day every day helping me for no benefit to you simply because I need the help? Can I come over to your house and use all of your shit because I'm not to the point in life where mine is as nice as yours? I wont give you anything for it, and you need to stand there lighting a candle every 2 minutes lol. The point is, a few k is NOTHING and can be made in about a minute. Just throw it to show appreciation
Can you please explain why I had to sit through 4 ads in this video?????
Haven't even watched the video yet but already sounds interesting, Keep it up Buddy!
Thanks for your content, this is very instructive and I enjoy your bot videos as well, they shed a lot of light into the situation the game is in atm, and they're great technical info.
One thing that I find interesting is that, to the eyes of the average player who isn't caught up with the reality of just how crazy money farming, real world trading, hacking, and all of these messed up things are in the game's community, a lot of these updates are just dressed up as convenient as opposed to a solution to an ongoing problem. I think that, one way or another it does keep a small portion of the community oblivious to these problems.
"OSRS HOST ARE BREAKING LAW" .. is a little much to take in fer the title, an its not 100%true here wit whats going on,, but I think you covered alotta good topics on the W330 hosting && you're ryt about everything, jus the title of ur vid a lil ovrkill. Lol. Love ur Vids keep em comin!
Biggest Goat #OSRS doxing people, ddosing, etc is illegal
I’ve only ever done gilded for a total of 2 or 3 hours. I had no idea back then but I remember this update happening and thinking “oh that’s great now they don’t need to spam so much to advertise that’s great” and the most I’ve ever interacted with a host was to ask if I could use their alter to pray the gay away (lol), I’m glad I never donated and thinking back I see so many of these tactics having happened. Glad it’s kind of over. Thanks for the vid, thumbs up
I don’t see the big issue. I really can careless tbh. I’m only there to get my prayer up and dip. Majority of the stuff you pointed out were basic sales tactics. If I’m having my house open for guest, I would try to maximize on the amount of gp I get. This is too drama over a video game lmao
Some of it sure, but getting your information is going too far
I did hosting 6 hours per day for 3 days, i made barely a mil in total. This was a few years ago before all the cool things were added to constructions
I mute chat & hide other players with RuneLite while using a random host lol
facts, entity hider is mint for doing bones
Ive been part of the hosting group since november 2018 and before jagex changed hosting, they also had a whole discord dedicated to sharing this information. Its still up and in use too, also the advert bots that were used can still be used via discord commands to advert who ever is live at the time
Yeah and hosting and virtually never ever been as toxic as he's trying to portray rofl

@@BBB-pz7er because of what's detailed in the post. He says a lot of them have fucked up dietary and mental health, relying on microwave pizzas to eat every day and they probably have shit hygiene and sleep/fitness habits as well.

A beggar probably makes more per day than they do. A Costco worker definitely does, and they get benefits and a stable future if they want it, access to cheap fresh produce and other consumable items, clothes, etc. on top of a host of activities to keep them in shape and a group of co-workers to socialize with.

Glad I saw this video. The most I've ever donated to hosts was probably about 30k. I will never donate again after hearing this. I've noticed some shady stuff too like a host logging out and another host said they wouldn't be back for a while so just use their house. I thought nothing of it at the time but this provides me with a brand new perspective. It's pathetic how this level of toxicity permeates every facet of OSRS whether it is pvp, pvm, or skilling.

I have so much I want to say on this topic through personal experience, but honestly not sure I should. All i can say is thanks for this video. It brought a lot to light that is very important the community knows. Tbh it brings closure.
How can I get in touch with you Colonello? I've been deeply rooted in this community for years, from both sides: host and accounts that advertise. I'd love to offer some more information, especially about the runescape 3 side, and even challenge some of the points in this video.
As a noob thank you for the heads up! I've been using theBound, and I have no idea if they are reputable or not. How does one find out who the bad hosts are?
Hey, I'm the host who wrote the original Reddit post this video is based on.
As a person who's just popping in to use the altar and quickly get out, you might not be able to tell tbh. There are things to look for though. From what I saw many of the worst "toxic" hosts had serious drug addictions IRL and/or were incredibly emotionally unintelligent and reactive. If they got mad very easily or would open up to talking about drugs like meth/heroin in private. There's a chance, I guess, that they're one of these hosts. Idk how 2:2 it is though. But it was a definite pattern (with 3 people I'm thinking of)
Also anyone who's beyond cheerful 24/7 and never seems to have any emotionally upbeat down-time. Or considers themselves to be an angelic humanitarian to the OSRS community. Short of never-removing the tip jar and rejecting all trades. MAJOR red flags.
The toxic hosts all put themselves on a pedestal. They also always had people in their house bitching about some drama they probably caused. Although they'd tried very hard to censor this or pull players into other rooms to talk to them away from the other guests.
Those are the main things that come to mind. To truly spot them with ease, you have to be another host or regularly be around them and their house for weeks on end and watch the chat very carefully. Any repetition that takes place, even jokes, is 100% an effort to garner good-will and more donations. It's typically recycled every 1-2 weeks (usually in different time zones), because you know it's not the same people inside your house.
@@wj7495 appreciate the information!
I commented on the original thread and pretty much understood exactly what Orca went through. I had all the same stuff happen and I pulled out when I made a profit from building my house. It's a shame, really, cause there were some really chill people in W330. Orca was one of them, but it was rather obvious when "new hosts" came by and instantly all the other hosts would be barraged by drama and bs, or I'd get rather inane comments about my PoH. I think what pissed hosts off was me telling people how much I was actually making, cause at the time there wasn't many hosts. I told people that I made quite a few mill and even had an old notepad document of people who donated to me. I think I made about 100-150m from just standing around. Was pretty wild, lol. Hopefully this update improved it. I haven't been back since 99 prayer. I might go back at some point for fun, though.
Easy solution. Disable the autotyping function outside of house portals. Force people to use the board. Also have someone look into any Pmod mutes that happen in or around house portals. If they're muting people for nothing, permanent ban. Period, no exceptions. I haven't used someones house for prayer in a long time, but even when I did, I never donated. The people that are donating are perpetuating this kind of behavior, even if its only 5k. There are better alternatives to gilded altars anyway. The chaos altar cuts the cost roughly in half compared to a gilded altar, and ensouled heads are cheaper than that.
World 30 used to be my home world. Miss just chilling at lummy castle with the homies
I, too, miss the old lumby chill days.
I used to host and can confirm that the only money was when you did more than 12 hours, some times hosted for 30 hours. I would have to have a friend keep the burners lit while I went to the toilet or even made food. One day, a host came along and started an argument in my house and decided to hold drop parties in his own, placing his spammer right underneath my own and when I spoke about it in the 07 alter FC, they banned me for "creating drama". I never hosted again as it was too toxic. It was great money at the time but there are easier ways now.
appreciate the content! I'm not a player of rs, but I love this content. A suggestion that would benefit viewers like me would be introducing what the concept of "hosting" is before diving into the video, and instead of referencing "the latest patch", explain the changes from the patch. Thanks!
This whole time I thought hosting was purely just for being friendly. To make it competitive to any degree is utterly bizarre and ridiculous to me. Pathetic too.
P mods can only temp mute, and only under circumstances where the user has spoken recently. If an abusive mute is appealed, p mods are demoted, and sometimes even banned.
I got an ad for Runescape while waiting for a video on RUNESCAPE
It's been 3 years since this video. How are house hosts now?
JohnoR is still pretty hyped up trying to get a few different house hosts banned. He seems to be the last toxic host left honestly. I’ve personally never seen someone as toxic as that dude.
Yeah I was in a house just the other day and host was obv talking to an alt saying stuff like I'll double any donation and stuff along those lines. And trying to talk some pure into giving ranger set and saying to ask the host that they trust them with a large amount of gold etc
