A long time ago (shortly after the release of construction), my account was hacked, I lost literally everything in my bank and was quite upset at the time.
I couldn't find any enjoyment anymore in playing runescape (especially when a month later, the exact same thing happened again) and quit playing.
Now, in a streak of boredom, I made a new account and rs has me hooked once more.
So, I became a member once more
Now the question is: what essential memberquest/items should I do/collect?
E.g.: when I first became a member there was a quest to unlock herblore, but I noticed that one dissapeared already.
Also, this loyalty/solomon thingie: what are the useful things in there?

The quest is still there methinks, it's integrated into the new tutorial somewhat. So i'd say do that.

Really what I would've done is cover my bases by doing all the F2P stuff first, but you can still do that in member's. I'd say start new skills, notably Farming and Agility.

I just liked doing quests a lot. It really gives you benefits to playing like areas and abilities. It helped set a base for members skills, for instance, I didn't do a second of farming, but doing quests got my farming lvl up to 19.

Priest In Peril is a must. so many other quests require that one to be done first.

I did priest in peril during my free trial. I suppose I should go back and pick up my wolfsbane dagger again though

And Nature Spirit, too.

Also, get Farming up. Getting the Magic Secateurs is also really easy.

[DJ Phox]

just start going down the list of quests...

In Solomon's General Store the only useful things would be the bank boosters, but don't worry about that until you really need it. Everything is pretty much for aesthetics in the store, although I still love the idea. I had come up with an idea just like it and had been hoping they'd do it cause I felt that with all the same armours, (especially in f2p) players couldn't really have their own unique look.

Make sure you scan your computer for malicious programmes ASAP would be my suggestion seeing how you got your account hacked in such a short span of time. I use these antivirus programmes: Eset NOD32, Malwarebytes and Spybot Search & Destroy (very sparingly as other programmes usually cover this programme), and then, find a skill you like and do it. I would not suggest training a skill that you absolutely hate just for the money (unless you need it) or because somebody said to. Games are meant to be fun, so try and find a skill(s) that do this for you.

The hack was on my previous account, about 5 years ago. The computer I played on then does not exist anymore

Ah okay. Never hurts to be safe though
