I played Runescape for awhile... it was alright at first, but I got sick of all the wavy fonts and other shite on there. This was in World of Warcraft, though. One big improvement with the mining is you don't have to deal with people camping the deposits. And like I said, normally tin will drop coarse stone without a problem, but this morning...
There used to be an image here telling you to vote, but then Photobucket, the image site made to allow you to do third party hosting, no longer allows third party hosting without throwing a shitload of money at them... and I can barely afford to eat. So no you get some text of me bitching about it, yaaay! Also, go vote.
Everyday I'm tumbl'n.

Ahh yes. The way you wrote it I believed it was Runescape.

Dang Car, I hate when WoW does that. I should know, I have played a dawarvan miner for so long myself.
When I'm bored, I like to wander around and cast X-Zone on random things.

If you have Enchanter as your other profession, then yeah, you have the same problem with he essences and the like.

I always preferred being a UO mage. You can make a ton of money just writing up Spell Scrolls on the cheap and selling them, especially when you can start writing Level 4 and up spells.

Wow, sound nice, makes me want to play my UO game that I brought several years ago but never played because of fear of the monthly cost.

Play Shards. It's roughly UO for free. They are run by independant Admins, and many have different rules and game changes from the core game, but if you can find a good one it's sometimes better then the Official Game.

That's where you get the program to play shards.

You can also get Ultima Online: Age of Shadows for free (For Shard use only, it won't run the main game), but I forgot the site that has it. It's technically a demo, but it is the full game, and the Shards don't care if the OSI license has run out or not so play it just fine (Which is how I got into UO).

No prob.

I tried to get others into it back on Buzz with limited success. It actually probably still ranks as my favorite free MMORPG, I just haven't played in forever because the Shard I was on closed down, making me lose my high skill mage which pissed me off...

Here's the free AoS download. 615 megs, and only works with Shards, but it's all you need, really. Click.

Knight:  Hey, if I can get my hands on some Coarse Stone, I can make you some EZ Throw Dynamite.
Me:  Okay, sounds awesome!
*Gives Knight his Coarse Stone*

*The next day*

Me:  Okay, now time to make Jon and Mordain some sweet ass weapons with my blacksmiting skill...
Blacksmithing Skill:  Hey retard, you need Coarse Stone to make those.
Me:  Oh shits, that's right!  I'll check the bank to see if I have any.
Bank:  Nope!  Plenty of Rough Stone, but no Coarse Stone, you dumb fucker!
Me:  Bollocks!  I guess I better go mine.  It shouldn't take long...
Tin Deposit:  Ha-ha!  I am a tin deposit, and I won't give you any Coarse Stone, because I am a bitch!
Me:  Odd, but I'm sure the next one will drop some.  After all, they almost always do!

*Two hours later*

Tin Deposit:  Keep tryin', jackass!
Me:  SON OF BEETCH!

I spent the same amount of time mining the same area and found a grand total of three Tin veins. THREE. However, I did manage to pick up [More Copper Than You Can Shake a Stick At]. And a silver vein, so that was kinda nice...

By the way, Car, you should probably pick up a UI mod called "Gatherer". Since resource nodes spawn randomly, but in preset locations, the mod keeps track of every location that you've found a node in the past. Makes exercises like hunting for silver and tin a HELL of a lot easier, once you've mined an area a couple times. Like now... I have the location of damn near every single copper node in Redridge... <_<

I want Batman Begins.

I do not want to spend $50.

Aw, shit.

Anyways, it's tactical espionage, but instead of playing the hunted, you play the hunter.
