Starter guide
Intro
As my grandfather used to say, there are many ways to skin a cat.
... now that I think about it, maybe that's why he wasn't allowed near animal shelters.
Anyway, starting August. There are many ways in which you can start your account, and this guide is by no means the "Meta" method for starting.
My advice to you is to experiment and do what you find fun. If you are struggling though, this guide will give you a general outline of what's good to do.

Part 0: Prerequisites
Do you have to do these steps? No. Should you? Probably.
FAQ
You should check out the FAQ for insight into some very commonly asked questions. There is a very good chance a question you're about to ask is posted in there.
Voting
Voting is one of the best way to support August, and you get some great rewards for doing it! I suggest you read the Voting page for all the details, or do ::vote in game to be redirected immediately. We thank you for your support!
Part 1: First Steps
You've read the FAQ, you've voted, and now you're looking for something to do.
From here, you have two main paths; Skilling and PvM.
PvM
If you've decided Combat is your preferred route, look no further. To begin your PvM journey, you should look into Prayer and Slayer.
Enemies in August hit VERY hard. Protection prayers are a must for early game PvM. Killing Chickens outsode of the home area is a great way to start.
Collect their bones and use them on the Altar at home until you're 43 prayer.
