That is exactly what I think.... seriously, if everybody is different, that would make different normal, making EVERYBODY normal! Now, I can be, for a fact, different... I have been home-schooled all my life (Freshman in HS now) My middle name is greene (odd much) I play runescape, football, and get straight A's, Play rock guitar and classical piano..... I am a fairly contrasted person... You agree that everybody is normal for wanting to be different, then you use common examples to show that it is a "fact" that you're different?

What makes them any worse than multi-itemers? It only comes down to their choice on how they play the game and it isn't breaching the rules in any way.

What do you mean? Honestly from what I've seen everyone has been pretty helpful on that forum. Care to give a few examples though?

I think you have the definitions mixed up. Definition 1: of or pertaining to an average; estimated by average; forming an average: The average rainfall there is 180 inches Definition 2: typical; common; ordinary: The average secretary couldn't handle such a workload. His grades were nothing special, only average. [Hence the term "Average Joe".] In the context I was using, I meant average as in common - not as in mean. Good way to put it.

Maybe there is no such thing as real! :ohnoes:

Ehh, you don't have to have a long title to be different. "Nonconformist" works just fine for me. Non-conformity is a myth. If your not conforming to one, your conforming to another. Okay, you got me there. I conform to my own belief system which deviates away from normalcy. In other words, I'm that kid that gets looked at funny. Oh and about everyone being unique... yes, that's a given. No one can say they are "exactly like everyone else" but compared to the average human being, there is a lot of room for leeway when it comes to nonconformity. It's possible.

Ehh, you don't have to have a long title to be different. "Nonconformist" works just fine for me.

I love it whenever people argue about something as subjective as musical preference.

I think it's just a phenomenon some players experience when they are weird with money. It's the same for me and Prayer. Every time I have a few mil sitting around in my bank I think about how high I could get my Prayer with that money so I spend it on Dragon Bones and can't seem to break the habit.

Being different is my reason for living. Life is such a great thing. It's like a giant blank canvas and you can fill it in however you want.

You compared them to all the skills "around".

Yeah, it's against the social norms. Yeah, it's kinda creepy. Yeah, there really is no point to it. But does that make it "wrong"? In fact, what constitutes as "wrong" in the first place? Well, when your actions have a negative effect on others around you, then I think it can be considered wrong. But honestly, dating couples have no impact on the way I play RS so I could care less. It might be annoying but that's how it is in real life too. ;)

1.What do you do on the game? I do set goals for myself and achieve them. It's satisfying watching my character get stronger. 2.What do you find more important, high skills or fun? Well, to me, getting high skills is fun. 3.When was the last time you had fun on runescape? Right now of course. :D All in all, I agree with Inuashakent. We all have different styles of playing and what we consider fun as, but just because you do things the efficient way it doesn't necessarily mean that you're doing them the non-fun way.

Who says that having 99 Strength makes you a pure? What if you have 99 Attack and Defence too? :? Strength doesn't stink any worse than those skills.

Guess you do have a point there. But still, I'm sure a majority of those people with 99 Strength didn't choose that method for their leveling. With skills like Woodcutting and Cooking, there really is no other alternative.

By "suggest" do you mean "to believe" or "to assert"? I have no problem with anyone saying they believe something because it's on a personal level, but when they go as far as asserting it, it makes it sound as if it is a universal fact which I believe should be complemented with evidence.

Well, I do have to say you put it into better terms than I've ever seen someone else say it before. But, I still don't agree with the way they word it - as an assertion. Say Bob and Rob are working on a farm one day, on the opposite side of where the barn is so it is out of their field of view. Bob goes up to Rob and makes the positive assertion, "They painted the barn yellow." Rob argues back and says, "No they did not paint the barn yellow. There is no evidence so therefore they did not." Of course Bob has no evidence that they did paint it yellow, but I don't see how his assertion and lack of evidence is any different than Rob's. For all he knows, they could have painted it yellow. Rob doesn't know whether they did or not, so if you ask me the default position should be indifference - not biased towards either side, until he actually sees the barn for himself.

So... "God doesn't exist" is a justifiable statement because of the fact that there is no evidence for him. But... "God does exist" isn't a justifiable statement even after the fact that there is no evidence against him? Honestly, am I the only one in the world who sees this as a two-way street? :|
