I have not yet watched the video because my PC is running super slow because I am converting some videos from my phone to .AVIs at the moment. However my comments are focused towards the view of so many of you posting here about your fellow gamers. I'm actually a little shocked. What I have seen from the vast majority of you is nothing but how you believe gamers (all except for you of course, because you're that one exception) are complete idiots. You follow that up with some poorly worded, grammatically incorrect, and extremely cliche insult. Studies have shown gamers to actually be more intelligent on average and to have problem solving skills. Most gamers I talk to are actually pretty intelligent people. I have to think the problem is most likely that most of you observe young kids in games and how many of them act immature. Then take that observation and stereotype all gamers with it. I believe the issue is more age related, since obviously younger kids have more free time to play games. Heck, when I was 13 I would play runescape for hours on end. However now that I work 10-12 hours a day and can be called in at any time on weekends, I don't get to play nearly as much. More than anything, stop assuming everyone around you are idiots. If there is one thing I have learned. It's that if you think everyone around you is dumb except for you, then in all truth, you're probably the dumb one.

When I first saw this thread, a lot of things came to mind (I've played for a long time). But then I realized, I really don't regret anything. I don't regret trading my yellow p hat for a rune full helmet, then pking and losing it. I don't regret all the long breaks I've taken. I don't regret spending hours upon hours as a low level mage pker back in RSC (anyone remember that). Even though I could have a maxed out account right now and be massively rich had I not done these things, I'm fine with it all. Because I learned lessons, even a few life lessons. And in the end Runescape is probably more enjoyable because of it. I would probably have quit if I had dumped my whole life into Runescape and maxed out by now. It would have just been too much too quickly. As it stands now, I still have tons of things to still achieve and that is what is most fun to me.

Read the info on the official website. It is explained quite clearly.
