24 skills in runescape
Some skills, such as woodcutting and fishing, enable the player to collect raw materials that can be processed into usable items for other skills, such as fletching and cooking respectively. The items created can be used by the player or sold to other players in game for a profit. Other skills allow players to kill certain NPCs, build their own houses, move around the map with greater ease, steal from various NPCs, market stalls and chests located in-game, cook their own food, create their own potions, craft runestones and weapons, grow their own plants, hunt NPC animals, and summon familiars to assist in combat and training skills.

We have now banned 68 accounts PERMANENTLY, with another 48 receiving temporary bans. There are a further 117 accounts which have been temporarily banned while undergoing further investigation. These will be dealt with very shortly.

Crafting Guild
You must be wearing a brown apron (bought from Thessalia's clothes store in Varrock) to enter the Crafting Guild building. The mining area of the Crafting Guild contains six clay rocks (level 1 mining required), six silver rocks (level 20 mining), and seven gold rocks (level 40 mining).
This floor is also home to a pottery oven, and four pottery wheels, located in the northern area of the guild. There is a hammer and chisel spawn on a table by the entrance, a jug and amulet mould spawn on a table by the pottery oven, and another jug spawn on the eastern side. There are nine cows (level-2) just outside the guild surrounded by a fence, and anyone can enter this cattle pen. There are also three master crafters here and a sink located in the southern part of the guild.
The top floor contains two spinning wheels in the north-eastern part of the room. There is also a tanner on this floor that can tan cow hides into soft leather (1 gp per hide), hard leather (3 gp per hide), and all dragon hides (20 gp per hide).
There are also five respawns on this level. A holy mould, a necklace mould, a tiara mould, a ring mould, and shears (moulds: on a table in the north-western part of the room; shears: on a barrel by the table).
