43 yr old young female. I've been playing RS for approximately 4 years now as a total way to relax and have some fun after work or when I'm home - it's more entertaining than watching tv. I know many other players in their 30's and 40's - we were part of an online community and through word of mouth many in our group began playing. :D

I am so happy to read stuff like this - it reminds me that there are people that want to enjoy their online time and not have to deal with typing that is often impossible to decipher. Aside from making the person who types in mumbles seem rather ignorant, it is downright annoying. On RS I generally put people that type that way on my ignore list just so i'm not distracted - and many times i've wanted to suggest that until they complete grade school level communication their time would be better spent learning something useful (like spelling) rather than playing something. There are many adults and intelligent teens that play RS and it amazes me that so many people are there rather than learning to communicate - since typing in mumbles tends to indicate they've got a whole lot of learning to do.

It sure is nice to see that there is such a variety of people playing. I'm only 43 - and I've been playing RS for several years now - when time permits. My only wish is that some people would take some time to learn such things as spelling and not resort to the dreaded netspeak - not normal acronyms or abbreviations like lol or brb.. but 4 xampl wen wudz r sepld rong n u 1/2 2 figr ot watz sed n ors go by It so drives me crazy! Translation.. For example, when words are spelled wrong and you have to figure out what is said and hours go by.
