  1. I'm sick of hearing people say that RuneScape is a drug or talking about it as if it were the spawn of satan.

     

     

     

    It's a computer game.

     

     

     

    I have played for 6 and a half years. Through High School, College, two jobs and my 4 year relationship RuneScape has had no negative effects. It is simply a toy to be picked up and put down at will like any other computer game. I have quit for months at a time when my life was too busy to play without a second thought and then started again when I had the time.

     

     

     

    If you think that RuneScape is addictive, you have serious psychological and social problems. It's just a computer game, you can't blame your failures in life upon it.

    the thing is that not everyone has the same kind of personality as you. Some people are just much more susceptible to addictions like this. Some people can smoke a cigarette every once in a while and never feel the urge to do it anymore than that while others have to smoke constantly. My point is that you can't really judge until you've been in there shoes, I was able to break the hold it had over me but some people need help to do it or at least some intervention.

     

     

     

    First of all, I realise you have made this relevant to yourself but I am going to keep my statements in a general context as I don't want to offend anyone. This is just my personal view on the problem as a whole.

     

     

     

    You just can't compare RuneScape to cigarettes. Yes, some people can smoke one or two from time to time but no-one can smoke constantly and then stop without getting physical and chemical withdrawal symptoms. There are no physical withdrawal symptoms with RuneScape, if you try and quit and come back you do not feel physically better. It's just a state of mind.

     

     

     

    Being chemically addicted to something like cigarettes or drugs is very different from being emotionally addicted to something like RuneScape.

     

     

     

    If you smoked heavily or took drugs and had to stop cold turkey you would have terrible withdrawal symptoms and that is the difference. Anyone should be able to quit RuneScape if it is having an adverse effect on their life. If they can't, they should get help from someone.

     

     

     

    RuneScape can only be compared to other computer games or other enjoyable pass times like watching TV. If people choose to become addicted, it's because of a negative trait in their personality. Not everyone has this trait and I'm getting sick of being told I must naturally have it because I still play this game.

     

     

     

     

     

    Runescape CANT really be compared to other games.. FFX always has an ending.. Mario ALWAYS has an ending, and you can get these within a week or two.. Or 38hrs (or something like that).

     

    Runescape doesnt have an end, unless you're zezima, but thats something different...

     

    Runescape is MUCH better compared to cigarettes.. Do you know the adrenaline that people get from pking? Chemicals......

     

     

     

     

     

    YOU are addicted to runescape.

  2. I wonder if there are some numbers on school shootings in Europe. I wonder how many there are.

     

     

     

    There was that one in Dunblane in the Primary School which i can remember, extremely awful as the children were very young ages 6+

     

     

     

    On Wednesday, 13 March 1996, unemployed former shopkeeper and Scout leader Thomas Hamilton walked into the school armed with two 9 mm Browning HP pistols and two Smith and Wesson .357 revolvers. He was carrying 743 cartridges. The subsequent police investigation revealed that Hamilton had loaded the magazines for his Browning with an alternating combination of fully metal jacketed and hollow point ammunition.

     

     

     

    After gaining entry to the school, Hamilton made his way to the gymnasium and opened fire on a class of five- and six-year-olds, killing or wounding all but one person. Sixteen children and a teacher, Gwen Mayor, died at the scene. Hamilton then left the gymnasium through the emergency exit. In the playground outside he fired a number of shots into a mobile classroom. A teacher in the mobile classroom had previously realised that something was wrong and told the children to hide under the tables. A number of bullet holes were found in the children's chairs. He also fired at a group of children walking in a corridor, injuring one teacher. Hamilton went back into the gym and fired one shot with one of his two revolvers pointing upwards into his mouth, killing himself instantly. A further eleven children and three adults were rushed to the hospital as soon as the emergency services arrived; one of these children was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital.

     

     

     

    this wasnt shooting, but bullying.. 2 boys in england (probably 8 and 10 at the time) took a small boy and shoved batteries up his bumbum (he was 2 or something), then tied him up and put him on railway tracks

     

     

     

    o you recall this incident - it had national news coverage:

     

     

     

    On February 12, 1993 a small boy who was to turn three in March was taken from a shopping mall in Liverpool by two 10 year old boys. Jamie Bulger walked away from his mother for only a second and Jon Venables took his hand and led him out of the mall with his friend Robert Thompson. They took Jamie on a walk for over 2 and a half miles, along the way stopping every now and again to torture the poor little boy who was crying constantly for his mommy. Finally they stopped at a railway track where they brutally kicked him, threw stones at him, rubbed paint in his eyes and pushed batteries up his anus.

     

     

     

    It was actually worse than this. What these two boys did was so horrendous that Jamie's mother was forbidden to identify his body. They then left his beaten small body on the tracks so a train could run him over to hide the mess they had created. These two boys, even being boys understood what they did was wrong, hence trying to make it look like an accident. This week Lady Justice Butler-Sloss has awarded the two boys anonymity for the rest of their lives when they leave custody with new identities. We cannot let this happen. They will also leave early this year only serving just over half of their sentence. One paper even stated that Robert may go on to University. They are getting away with their crime. They need to pay, and we have to do something to make them pay for their horrific crime. They took Jamie's life violently away, and in return they get a new life.

     

     

     

    i could only find it in a chain letter.. but its a real story, it was all over the news when i was a little girrrrl

  3. i remember when the first 1/10 def pures started coming through.

    The post is "VICTORIAS SECRET FASHION SHOW"

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Not...... "MEN ARE TOASTERS WOMEN ARE CROCKPOTS!"

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Thanks for the info! Anything else you would care to state the obvious about? Here's a good one...

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I'M TYPING ON A KEYBOARD.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Oh that was fun! I can see why you did it!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    hey arent you not clever..... because im pretty sure they arent talking about what the post is....... mmk?

  6.  

     

    Well, they are paid for that.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It's a pitiful exchange.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    They are providing a service. Also, to them, it's a job. If I could be paid that much money to model Victoria's Secret, I probably would too! :D Not every woman would choose to - then again, not every woman chooses to become a dentist, or chooses to become a cashier. Certainly there are other forces at play (some people might not have the privilege to easily become a dentist, or a supermodel!), but that is the world we live in currently.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with sex appeal being a commodity. I do not think there is anything inherently wrong with sex, either.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    :D

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    My goal in life is to be a model........ I'm just tooooooo lazy hahaha.

     

     

     

    But seriously........ It's not that bad of an exchange. They get millions (the lowest paid ios probably like 10 grand an hour?) to be there..for what, 3 hours? And it's not tasteless when they walk out there. There was like...... What.. 2 girls in a thong? Oh.. Not to mention those girls were completely covered up.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    ALL fashion shows will have sexiness to them. Know why? Sex sells. You know it, i know it.... So no one cares about it

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT TO EVERYONE......... To be a victorias secret model you can't have a bad reputation...... Aka no glam models, no porn stars..... They don't allow that because the people who actually BUY what's on the runway are willing to spend thousands of dollars and no one wants something if a tramp touched it.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    These women are all top models for ford and other major agencies....

  7. They look nice, nice clothes too but a few of them are really anorectic with silicon implants. I don't consider that 'beauty' but that's just me. All of them are very fit to be models though. (And if I'm not mistaken the second one from left is already a known supermodel)

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    That';s tyra banks........ They are ALLL already well known supermodels. You probably only recognize her because she went all crazy when she retired and now has 2 shows.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    And none of them have silicon.............

  8. nice post. haha

     

     

     

    before i played rs i actually went out and did stuff.. then i played rs ilke a fool.. and greywanderer made fun of me once because i went from level 70- 95 in like 2 weeks at hobs... then after rsc was closed i actually went out and got alife and i started up gymnstics and skating (which i quit earlier from rs) and i got 2 jobs and my liscence and a lover boy and everything within a month....
