I am going off to college in a month, and I absolutely MUST quit. I intend to take my studies seriously, and I cannot be bothered by video games. So here's the question: HOW???? You must understand what I'm going through before you make suggestions. You must understand how much blood and sweat I've put into my character. I've had it for 7 years now, I think. To put it in perspective, I'm going off to college in a month, but I had my character since I was in elementary school! I've gone through puberty with this character! I've redefined my entire structure of core values and beliefs a dozen times while I was with this character! I've went from being a gangsta, to being the loser kid, to geek, to musician, to the "angel kid", and back again, and forth again -- all while I had this stinking character! I think I've outgrown the game, in a way -- I haven't logged in for 6 months (until today), and the game just doesn't appeal to me anymore. But I haven't outgrown my character. In a way, it sort of became an extension of my physical self, not so much because the game is awesome or addictive, but simply as a consequence of having spent so much time with it. Do you see the problem? I can't just.... QUIT. I may have outgrown the game, but I haven't outgrown the character -- in a way, it sort of became an extension of my physical self, if only as a consequence of me having spent so much of my most formative years with it. I can't... just.... QUIT. I struggle to make a comparison... it's like -- Hey, did any of you write or draw stuff in notebooks or on paper when you were kids? Do you still have some of the stuff you wrote or drew when you were, say, ten years old? Do you look through it every now and then? Isn't it some of the most idiotic stuff you've ever read? But you can't just throw it away, now, can you? Can't just throw it in the fire, can you? No. It's like burning a part of your past -- you burn with it. So you save it. You keep it in piles, and you pray to dear god that your mommy, or your big brother, won't ever look through it, because that would be, oh so embarrassing! But kind of cute, too. Isn't it? Aw, look at that picture you drew of Sparky. Ew, is his tail growing out of his leg? Oh, but it's so adorable! If only that old dog was still around... Read between my figurative comparisons and see what I'm REALLY saying: just quitting, or just changing the password to something I won't remember, or just locking myself out of my account would be a very disappointing finish. It's like burning your notebooks from youth. How do I quit so that I wouldn't feel bad? How do I give my character the "burial" he deserves? How do I surgically remove this physical extension of self in an "honorable" way? How do I finish this "chapter", so to speak, and give it a sense of finality, a sense of closure, so that both me and my mind will agree that it's completely over? JaGeX has stepped out of its way to make this procedure as difficult as it could be. [*:2myo6qgq] No unbalanced trading: I can't just give my wealth away. [*:2myo6qgq] I heard they took precautions against drop trading? So I can't just drop everything I own? [*:2myo6qgq] No more player killing? Since when!? There's only the so-called "Bounty Hunter", but they wouldn't let me take coins or iron bars in there. [*:2myo6qgq] Giving my account away is illegal... Great. Please advise.
