I would like to say, I was the first person you gave a bond to. My account name is Thockett, yes i was afk i was browsing reddit lol and i looked over and saw and was just so in shock i thought it was some sort of scam i wasnt aware of just cause of my time away from the game. so all i was able to muster up the balls to say was "why". looking back now there were probably much better things to be said. Then like 4 hours later a dude came up to me at the GE and asked if i was given a bond today and i replied yes, so he explained how it was for a youtube video and now im here commenting this. Needless to say, thank you very much for the bond. I have been grinding trying to make money to afford one so its nice i get to save all of that. I can attest for everyone else, i havent used my bond yet because i want to level a few more things before i start it plus i have a busy work week next week. SO again. thank you so so much, that was awesome of you and the community to do that. You have a new sub! keep up the good work!
I don't like to spend money on an MMORPG. If i can get a bond through my own ways without spending any of my cash, i'll do it. That 5 dollars goes a long way, 5x10 and i can get a 2.7kg protein powder tub that'll last me for 2 and a half months.
Hey Dovy, next time go to the security stronghold where a lot of dedicated f2p players are training their combat stats! They would probably appreciate a bond a lot
Haha im the Scita2000 guy who was being a dumbass whilst splashing. My brother showed me this video and i was flippin out man thank you so much ill be sure to use that bond asap. I dont really have proof but i can tell u that i have 56 wc and 34 attack on that acoount.
Man I remember back in the days when I finally managed to convince my parents for a membership after playing the game for like 2 years and I was like 11 and I was SOOOO hyped up and euphoric when I logged in to a members world for the first time! good old times
There is actually a pretty large strictly F2P community, in fact, some of the high rankings in skills like mining, crafting, and smithing for ultimate ironmen are held by 100% F2P accounts.
If u use the bond on someone it doesnt have to be in tradable form, afriend, and they dont pop up in their inventories.. they just instantly give 14 days of membership so u basically converted them for no reason
MythicKoopa says thanks again and I appreciate the shout out about my stats, I've been trying! I literally just started OSRS for the first time and I've been around since the beginning. This bond is going to help me so much to continue playing in this wonderful community and get my own bonds. I'll never forget your kindness and I'll have to pay it forward sometime. Anyways, yeah, good look my dude :)
Wow, this video was really nice. I went and bought 5 sets of iron armor with each scimitar leading up till rune and gave it away to 5 people training and enjoying the game. Since I ran out of things to give and saw someone that was in need of help I gave 100k and some noted lobsters and trout (roughly 250ish of each) because it's all I had left to really help a new player. It's amazing what so little can mean to someone just starting to the game. If only more players did this..
I was googling efficient ways to turn cooking into profit for f2p while afking in falador west bank. I turn back to see how much of a cash stack i have to work with to see a message saying i'm being gifted a bond. I immediately gifted like 100k to the person next to me, and he was almost as confused as i was. I want to succ you, thank you so much for making my week a little bit easier and less no-lifey on OSRS!
I'd seriously love it if he made every one of his video 10 minutes and 2 seconds long, just to flip off all of the moronic non contributing nerds who can't stand the idea of a RUclipsr they watch making money. Great video: better than any drop party.
I remember getting members for the first time. I was lost in the huge amount of things I could do. I ended up cutting magic trees for a month then they were stuck in my bank for months before I go membership again. I miss those times... Having mills in logs and not even realizing their value.
I was also gifted a bond, i saved it for later - got most of my f2p skills to 70, activated the bond and now i am self-sufficient. Thanks random guy. :)
You should complain. If an individual starts making content at precisely the 10minute mark each and every time it tells you 2 things. 1. They don't really care about their content, they're doing this for 1 reason, and 1 reason alone for money. They don't make videos necessarily because they enjoy them, they make them for $$$$$$$$$$. A friend AFKs runescape as much as he physically can because he only cares about playing other games. Hence why he almost dies to really stupid shit. He's lucky, that's about it. 2. Their content isn't important to them so it gradually becomes more shit. I mean seriously could you really consider the videos A friend has made recently as "content" he stands in a bank and talks about meaningless unrelated garbage half the time, but because he has a nice voice people are willing to listen to it. He plays more than almost all of the player base, you'd expect him to be farther progressed already. Gotta drag it out though, more pointless videos = more money.
A friend, I got a bond from you yesterday and thought you were trying to scam me. Once I figured out what it was I felt pretty stupid. Thank you so much! Will likely use it in a few days. And for the record, I've been a subscriber for some time now. - Thromadir
Exactly as you said in the end of the video. They're only getting 14 days out of it, they'll use it wisely. What a great way to spend 140m that's not yours!
i did something similar to this after i got cleaned staking i scraped up around 6m and bought a ton of trimmed rune sets rune scims and r2hs and gifted them to f2p players i would only give these sets out to people training rather then the ge scum thanks for doing this afriend :)
Not sure why you guys are hating on the F2P people who didn't convert right away. Like I know if I was in that position, I'd probably make a solid plan of what I wanted to do in membs before I started wasting the bond.
a Friend u gotta understand that a lot of these players have no had members in a long time (or maybe even never had it). you gave a bond to my little cousin and he is super excited but he's saving it for spring break when he doesn't have school. I'm sure a lot of them are doing the same. Thanks a friend :)
Hey A Friend! I've noticed a change ever since a couple of days ago when i commented about how I miss the old A Friend which had better EQ. Keep it up man, you're awesome this way.
@A Friend I was lucky enough to be in that cow field, at the right moment i started lagging; You traded me a bond and with hesitation i accepted. Spam clicking the accept button. I felt a Dc coming to ruin the only chance to begin my rein of terror at Rock crabs. I indeed disconnected but i was lucky enough to stay connected long enough for you to accept! i didnt get to formerly thank you for you where gone when i came back :( thank you. (more karambwan vids pls)
this is really nice :) i actually got my first membership from a random guy who gave me a bond and 2mil out of nowhere and now i'm enjoying th egame more than ever, really owe that dude. Membership opened a new world for me on rs
i wonder if they were trying to go straight to the world hopper, because you have to log out the slow way after using a bond before it will register as a member account again. im sure they didnt know that and continued to play thinking they werent members yet
Oh damn you didn't included me in the video but I really appreciate the members man! I was TheZingMan, mining at the Miners Guild. Gonna redeem it on Thursday cause I have a long weekend coming up. Cheers!
Some of you just think that these noobs aren't able to "efficiently use" the 14-days of membership Dovy game them. But they'll get something way superior than two weeks of efficiency whoring.. They'll get to create those first time member moments we all had 10+ years ago, when even buying those "cool white boots and clothes" at the desert was a amazing story and experience. Gay as fuck, but true.
I remember when I first became a member after playing for a year. I instantly hopped onto a p2p world, bought rune claws because they had a special attack and tested them in castle wars.
I think most people are just worried about wasting the time. Like if I were to be given a bond I wouldn't use it immediately, i'd make a plan, do a little research on what I can do to get more bonds before that one runs out, maybe train in f2p a little longer for better stats. It's a bit much to take in.
I remember getting members for the first time back in 04 or 05. Instantly jump to members world, run through that white wolf mountain or w/e, and buy mith boots from some guy for like 100k.
A Friend you have to realize a lot of people who get bonds from f2p have to make the most of it so a lot of people train their stats in f2p and then try to make money with those stats in P2P so that can continue being a member I now it might sound weird to you but not everyone will just hop onto a membership with no idea of what they will do so they may continue training in f2p for a bit then transfer over to member and try to continue being a member
My friend was given a bond for free before. He didn't get P2P immediately because he wanted to get decent stats first so he wouldn't waste his P2P time doing F2P training methods which is 100% understandable.

Thockett Things like these make me happy ;_;
Enjoy it :^)
Thockett i cried so badly after reading this...i gotta pussy up :')
he said he has hard work week
I don't like to spend money on an MMORPG. If i can get a bond through my own ways without spending any of my cash, i'll do it.
That 5 dollars goes a long way, 5x10 and i can get a 2.7kg protein powder tub that'll last me for 2 and a half months.

I was going to like but I decided 69 was to good of a number to change
Savage
If Jagex was smart they would give 1 free bond to every non-member who completed Dragon Slayer
Gonna stock up on rune platebodys just in case they see your comment.
i struggled to complete that as f2p lol
Why would that be smart?
@@Jrez solid marketing
@@fanatic124 they would be farmed
That guy thanking you because now he can play with his friend on p2p was the ebst part of this video
6:42 "Has very nice stats" immediately mouses over 69
nice
Star x)
Star Nice
probably because that was his highest stat, nothing to do with it being 69.
WOW huehuehue the s - e - x numba!!! you very naughti boi
Hey Dovy, next time go to the security stronghold where a lot of dedicated f2p players are training their combat stats! They would probably appreciate a bond a lot
You mean bots?
Bots LOL
Giving bonds to noobs is like giving a computer to a tribesman from Africa. They don't know what to do with it. Good video though.
ToyCat they'd eat it
ToyCat OH MY GODDD LMAO
ToyCat Every sixty seconds in Africa, a minute passes. Together we can stop this.
you cant just hop to p2p world from game. you have to go to lobby first. Thats why they still play f2p
ToyCat this is the best comment I've seen in awhile
95 wc? He definitely didn't bot that. Good job giving bonds to noble players
Haha you'd be surprised
"Everyone in runescape scams" Too true.
Haha im the Scita2000 guy who was being a dumbass whilst splashing. My brother showed me this video and i was flippin out man thank you so much ill be sure to use that bond asap. I dont really have proof but i can tell u that i have 56 wc and 34 attack on that acoount.

Shoutout to the guy killing a guard with a pickaxe at 8:00
Man I remember back in the days when I finally managed to convince my parents for a membership after playing the game for like 2 years and I was like 11 and I was SOOOO hyped up and euphoric when I logged in to a members world for the first time! good old times
why didnt you just do that again? instead of giving 150m to a scammer?
"Stabbing with a rune scimmy... that guy deserves a bond"
140M... Smh, Thats worth more than my bank... and i've been fishing for salmons since 2002.
Unstoppable
Garbage way to make money lmfa0
"Thanks friend"
"Little does he know... that I am A Friend"
LOL
loot from 10 hours of pretending to be f2p to get money from a friend
There is actually a pretty large strictly F2P community, in fact, some of the high rankings in skills like mining, crafting, and smithing for ultimate ironmen are held by 100% F2P accounts.
If u use the bond on someone it doesnt have to be in tradable form, afriend, and they dont pop up in their inventories.. they just instantly give 14 days of membership so u basically converted them for no reason
Yeah I was yelling at the screen when he did that.
Tyler Yager too bad xD
Youssef Adel I don't get it can you explain please. Sorry ...
shoaib ghalib i hope you're being sarcastic cuz that was briefly explained
I thought that only works on iron men account?
MythicKoopa says thanks again and I appreciate the shout out about my stats, I've been trying! I literally just started OSRS for the first time and I've been around since the beginning. This bond is going to help me so much to continue playing in this wonderful community and get my own bonds. I'll never forget your kindness and I'll have to pay it forward sometime. Anyways, yeah, good look my dude :)
rip the guy with rune boots... didn't get rune boots cuz they are members object but jagex made boots f2p a few months ago .... rip
bchi Rs wait really?
they are still members only lol check the wiki
Troll.
maybe his members ran out but he still has the gear he was wearing
I find this Hilarious and quite well different from your usual videos. I enjoyed it a lot. Keep up the good work a friend!
if you have 95 fucking WOODCUTTINF in f2p... surely you could afford a bond
Arzy m8 yews are inefficient, willows to 99.
he probably bought the account lol
Arzy If I was A friend I wouldve been like 95 wc? fuck this botter lol
Wow, this video was really nice. I went and bought 5 sets of iron armor with each scimitar leading up till rune and gave it away to 5 people training and enjoying the game.

What a genuinely good and principled man, cheers.
noobs are the cutest creatures
I'd seriously love it if he made every one of his video 10 minutes and 2 seconds long, just to flip off all of the moronic non contributing nerds who can't stand the idea of a RUclipsr they watch making money. Great video: better than any drop party.

How do you spell your name ?
I remember getting members for the first time. I was lost in the huge amount of things I could do. I ended up cutting magic trees for a month then they were stuck in my bank for months before I go membership again. I miss those times... Having mills in logs and not even realizing their value.
Respect, I used to do this back in the day, giving people who couldn't buy members a shot. Much love.

10:02 Hnng. So close! I'm loving how close they are to that 10-minute mark. RUclips money baby! Good video.
10:02 Coincidence?
Well he just flushed about 140 bucks down the toilet, I guess we can get over this matter this time.
He LITERALLY stopped talking at 9:58, four seconds of silence so it would end passing the 10 minute mark.
God Gonx Who gives a shit, this is his job.... do uou get angry at nice waiters because they want maximise their earnings
Dude everyone knows this. Unless you enjoy pointing it out. Yes he wants more money. Don't we all?
why do you care? its his irl job.
"one day...... you will know........" *logs off*
I literally lost my shit when you did that
last time I was this early, A Friend was still a Pmod.
They Call Me LJ you tried
yup
Ope
Yea.. RIP 💀
I was also gifted a bond, i saved it for later - got most of my f2p skills to 70, activated the bond and now i am self-sufficient. Thanks random guy. :)
A Friend running out of ideas lol still finds a way to get the video to 10mins long
genius.
It's almost like this is his income
Are those complaints about free content? sit down and be quiet
I'm getting tired of these damn comments.
You should complain. If an individual starts making content at precisely the 10minute mark each and every time it tells you 2 things.

A friend, may I have a bond? Please dude
Rasmusb rude
What was he supose to say? "Sure! type your rsn"
It was a stupid comment by Andrew lol
Worth a try... He could've hit me up with a RUclips message :p
Hi A Friend? Oh wait, you're not him.
Andrew Saltis just shut up no one likes andrew
Glad you took the time to give it to more deserving people.
0:01 "I just want to make this very quick"
10:02 ...typical a friend.
His evil laugh ..." hohoho, and now we log out, and he'll never know"
Exactly as you said in the end of the video. They're only getting 14 days out of it, they'll use it wisely. What a great way to spend 140m that's not yours!
That guy suicide-botted 95 woodcutting, I'd bet a hundred fucking bonds on that.
I am jealous that all these people got bonds but good on them and good on you for doing this.
Respect to you for actually keeping your word a year later
i did something similar to this after i got cleaned staking i scraped up around 6m and bought a ton of trimmed rune sets rune scims and r2hs and gifted them to f2p players i would only give these sets out to people training rather then the ge scum thanks for doing this afriend :)
This was fkn awesome! So cool too see these happy people :-) Do this again.
Not sure why you guys are hating on the F2P people who didn't convert right away. Like I know if I was in that position, I'd probably make a solid plan of what I wanted to do in membs before I started wasting the bond.
a Friend u gotta understand that a lot of these players have no had members in a long time (or maybe even never had it). you gave a bond to my little cousin and he is super excited but he's saving it for spring break when he doesn't have school. I'm sure a lot of them are doing the same. Thanks a friend :)
Thanks for helping people with their bond problems. You're a graceful person
It's 2021 and You just taught me about the rebuy at same price on the history button lmao. Ty, A Friend. :)
how can people can hate him so much for doing his job and not dying of hunger to make more content holy shit
Hey A Friend! I've noticed a change ever since a couple of days ago when i commented about how I miss the old A Friend which had better EQ. Keep it up man, you're awesome this way.
@A Friend
I was lucky enough to be in that cow field, at the right moment i started lagging; You traded me a bond and with hesitation i accepted. Spam clicking the accept button. I felt a Dc coming to ruin the only chance to begin my rein of terror at Rock crabs.
I indeed disconnected but i was lucky enough to stay connected long enough for you to accept! i didnt get to formerly thank you for you where gone when i came back :(
thank you.
(more karambwan vids pls)
8:20 "Hello my child" - A friend in chat 2017.
this is really nice :) i actually got my first membership from a random guy who gave me a bond and 2mil out of nowhere and now i'm enjoying th egame more than ever, really owe that dude. Membership opened a new world for me on rs
anyone else just really enjoy this guy's videos. if he posted more I would definitely watch.
How do you know what Dovydas' videos are like then, based on your second sentence?
Nice Video a Friend i stopped to play rs 7 years ago :) but still watch you videos
i wonder if they were trying to go straight to the world hopper, because you have to log out the slow way after using a bond before it will register as a member account again. im sure they didnt know that and continued to play thinking they werent members yet
Oh damn you didn't included me in the video but I really appreciate the members man! I was TheZingMan, mining at the Miners Guild. Gonna redeem it on Thursday cause I have a long weekend coming up. Cheers!
I needed you in my childhood. WHERE WERE YOU?
Some of you just think that these noobs aren't able to "efficiently use" the 14-days of membership Dovy game them. But they'll get something way superior than two weeks of efficiency whoring.. They'll get to create those first time member moments we all had 10+ years ago, when even buying those "cool white boots and clothes" at the desert was a amazing story and experience. Gay as fuck, but true.
9:15 "One day you will know..." ..... Dad?
3:04 omg, I am the guy with the bronze shield and chef's hat!! So close to get bond lol :D
Today you, tomorrow me.
Can you please explain why all prices in GE had a zero change today? Most objects are crashing too...
the one day I'm not harassing F2P players I miss bonds from bald Lithuanian Santa Claus
8:14 "Hello My Child" in the chat
10:03 you did it a friend enjoy the shekles
"stabbing with a rune scimitar - that guy deserves a bond"
I remember when I first became a member after playing for a year. I instantly hopped onto a p2p world, bought rune claws because they had a special attack and tested them in castle wars.
Thank you for this content A friend, It's very generous of you to make someones day in F2P
I didn't make the vid? RSN: Puppy Linux, and I was given one yesterday by this guy. I really appreciate it.
I think most people are just worried about wasting the time. Like if I were to be given a bond I wouldn't use it immediately, i'd make a plan, do a little research on what I can do to get more bonds before that one runs out, maybe train in f2p a little longer for better stats. It's a bit much to take in.
I remember getting members for the first time back in 04 or 05. Instantly jump to members world, run through that white wolf mountain or w/e, and buy mith boots from some guy for like 100k.
My neighbors love A Friend so much they threw a brick at my window so they can hear him better
A Friend you have to realize a lot of people who get bonds from f2p have to make the most of it so a lot of people train their stats in f2p and then try to make money with those stats in P2P so that can continue being a member I now it might sound weird to you but not everyone will just hop onto a membership with no idea of what they will do so they may continue training in f2p for a bit then transfer over to member and try to continue being a member
that was awesome when that p2p guy came in and thanked you for letting his buddy play along side
if only some of those noobs were more friendly.
8:72 HE JUST MISSED THE FUCKING AGS
It's fun to watch your videos when you're in a good mood.
As a previous ftp, I would save the bond for when my stats were ready for members. Such as 60 stats or when I could play more.
Seems like he really bonded with some of those noobs.
Man those bonds would be so much easier to buy if only there was some sort of convenient "Buy Bond" button in the interface....
New players probably wanted to get their stats up before they take advantage of membership. Great vid man, keep up the good shit.
8:20 "hello my child"
My friend was given a bond for free before. He didn't get P2P immediately because he wanted to get decent stats first so he wouldn't waste his P2P time doing F2P training methods which is 100% understandable.
