I asbolutely loved by rune long sword. That was back in the day of RSC where you bought them from the shop for, what is it 32k? I worked so hard and long to get that!

The stupid thing was when I have started to play and when a saw one goblin mail and was thinking that was ''rune with red''(zamorak)chain body.

My first rune pickaxe... I was a BIG miner on F2P... Now I've had a bout 7 or 8 rune picks from Treasure Trals, and I never use 'em... :|

[rickmundo]

when i was still pretty new to the game i met a friend who wanted to go with me to the wildy but then he died and droped his mith (short)sword, i picked it up and asked if he wanted it back but then he told me i could have it :)

 

then i was over exited with joy!

 

but a few days later he quit :(

 

i now still have his sword as a memory

~ Proud to have spend countless hours killing goblins with a steel mace on a laggy computer to get their 3gp to buy an Addy Battle Axe. After that, I was one of the richer people in rs, and people said "wow nice axe man."

[Capone_Sabre]

In the days of early rsc, before even rune was released I spent many hours fishing lobsters on karamja and sailing to port sarim to cook and sell them. Doing this time after time I finally managed to buy the coveted addy plate for the 40k it was back then. :

I once started playing. I was walking in Lumbridge with no armor equiped. I remember it well, it was at the house south of the smithing thing. I was right in front of the south door, when someone traded me, and gave me full bronze. I was happy because it looked like real warrior armor. The only problem was, there were no legs, but skirt :oops: . I didn't realy mind, but when I look at people with skirts now, I think: "That looks very bad -.- ". Now I got something different than bronze, it's full Dragon :D . The only problem is that there are too much people that insult me because I'm a muslim, and also because I'm rich. 2 or 3 days ago it was realy crazy :shock: evreyone was saying bad things to me, and 1 person even broke about 5 or 6 rules :shock: .

Long ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth... actually last year, I was walking along south of draynor when I found a pile of junk apparently dropped by one of the black knights victims. In that pile of junk I found a Mithril Longsword. It was a sign from above obviously. :pray: And so from that day on I used nothing but longswords. When I became a member I picked flax and sold bow strings until I could buy a Dragon longsword. Woe was I when I found out I needed to do Lost City to use it, however I persevered. Many were the days I pwned with that thing. Many were the questions of why I used only longswords.

 

 

 

Then one day my closest friend, who I had known since F2p and had done Shield of Arrav with, gave me a Dragon Mace for my birthday. That was one of the few times I ever took free stuff from anyone and only then because I respected him. A few weeks later he talked of quitting RS to play another game. I was sad beyond words. I tried to talk him out of it but he would not be swayed. When he offered to give me his whip and barrows armor as well as his considerable fortune I refused, telling him that one day he would play again and would want it.

 

 

 

Months passed. One day I saw him log on and was overjoyed. But all he had to say was how great his new game was and how inferior Runescape was in comparison. He tried to convince me to play it but I refused. He continued to insult this fine game that I had come to enjoy so much and I grew impatient with him. We parted that day on less than friendly terms.

 

 

 

These days, if you see me, I'll almost always have in my right hand a Dragon mace. I use it to remember the friend I once had and hope one day he will return so that I might apologize to him for my harsh words. Many will the days be that I pwn with this thing. Many will the questions be of why I use only a Dragon Mace.

 

 

 

 

 

^ That story is 100% true. My item I treasured most as a newb was any type of longsword especially mithril. The one I treasure now is my beloved Dragon Mace along with my prayer armor.

 

 

 

wow touching

 

 

 

When i was a noob i almost quit as soon as i got to lumbdrige. I walked out of the castle and by the fishing spot on the river there was two men fighting and yelling at each other over race and that only white men should play and the other was like its a free country and a game. so yea that was just a bad first impression of the game.

 

 

 

When i was a noob i was in varrok and thought that you could only buy things from the shop( i didnt know how to trade of follow =/ ) and i saw that a steel scimmy was 628 gp (i forget the correct ammount) and i couldnt buy it from that moment on i wanted one soo bad. I saved up all my gold untill i have 500 gp then i sold alot of my stuff for like 5 gp each to a shop. Then somehow i made it to al karid and found the scimmy shop and baught one i was soooooo happy!

 

 

 

Also when i was a noob I started killing chickens (with my newly baught steel scimmy) untill i was lvl 20 i got like 7k feathers and sold them all for 5 gp each. i got 35k i was astonished i was like wowowowowowo! then i spent it all on my little bro and friend who had just started playing. but i felt like a god when i got my steel scimmy!

[Mr_Adam]

my best friend gave me a gold necklace when i first started so i wouldn't look like such a noob. Backthen my quote was "fight to the death - then a bit more!" cuz i died a lot....

 

 

 

 

 

I ended up losing most of the stuff i'd have worked for, and when i hoped to find an iron scim or such -

 

 

 

I have a gold necklace in my inv.

 

 

 

It got so annoying i think i sold it =;

report them like crazy dude, thats one of the worse crime i can think of!!! (no sarcasm)

 

 

 

my most valeud item in my nooby days was probaly my silverlight because i pwned a lvl 27 demon with it =), now lvl 86 with full verac, stil pwning demons with my sword =-)

[dwarf_lord30]

my full bronze

 

i thought it was so cool that i bragged to my freind about it

 

he had a combo of steel and mith :oops:

 

 

 

at least bronze is the rarest armour in the game

 

its so easy to get better stuff, people just ditch it first chance they get, so there are probably only about 1000 full sets in the game

[Angelsbane]

My rune simmy. It was the first item I bought from another player after finding that it wasn't in any shops. I can't remember what i did with it though. :-k

[Iv_Green_vI]

My full addy, oh I remember when I first bought it :) I was so happy.

[TheLlama79]

Well, it's not really a single item, but

 

 

 

My friend walked me through rune mysteries..

 

 

 

I mined nothing but Rune essence from level 1 to level 35.

 

 

 

Then did Doric's Quest.

 

 

 

Then mined more essence.

 

 

 

I loved rune essence more than life itself.

 

 

 

Of course...that was back when you could sell them 30 each...before the Great Essence Split.......way to crash the market guys....jeez. Oh well. :wall:

[Pikemaster25]

Full Mithril :)

[ivotjuh]

My chisel!! I still have it, and i've cut over 2k gems with it :D I love my chisel and if i every lose it i'll quit rs :boohoo:

If you lose it, Ill give you a free one!!

 

lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mine is Bronze Sq Shield (I think someone said this already)

 

 

 

I was bare naked in Lumbridge. Well not really. With my wooden shield in one hand and a bronze sword in the other, I was killing goblins in my newb days. Then one of them dropped a bronze sq shield. I was like "OMG bronze sq shield!!!!!!!!"

 

 

 

Oh and by the way, A lot of you are putting stuff in there that aren't really "Newb items". Like rune items or addy items. I think what the author of this thread meant by "Items you treasured as a newb" is items that are close to worthless, or, if the average player saw it on the ground, he wouldn't pick it up. Such as bronze or iron.

 

 

 

Ok, heres what a newb item is.

 

Go to Varrock world 1 or 2, west bank.

 

Stand right next to a bank booth.

 

Have your friend drop an item.

 

Count how many seconds between the time the item appears on the ground to you, and when it is picked up by someone.

 

If the time is less than 5 seconds, chances are its not a newb item!

Whats 3rd Age then; the extremely common 300mil armour? :-k :roll:

probably the dumbest and most uneducated estimate i've ever heard.

[frangellica]

Well, this is true, when i got my tinderbox from tutorial island, i thought you couldnt get another one anywhere else, i didnt see any in shops or people selling them ( I wonder why) and so i was soo scared to loose my tindy, when i got a tinderbox drop from goblins i was soo excited! I was like YES! I dont need to worry bout losing my other one, and i must be the only other person with 2 tindies! :D lol

 

:oops:

 

 

 

And i still have my very first one :D (i like to think so anyway)

[LBMarshall]

mine is proberly a certificate i found on the floor. I kept it for no reason. Then one day i started the shield of arrav quest. And i found out i didnt need to do the quest cos i got the final item. :D

 

 

 

I guess it was lucky me

[mr_emflum]

The first item i really ever wanted / started to save up my money for was the rune pick. I bought it at the pick store in the fally mines and i thought it was the best thing that ever happened. It was alos the first rune item i had ever owned. Mining use to be my favorite skill... now on the other hand i hate it :P

[Demonic_Bunny]

My Adament Platebody..

 

 

 

Found 6k arrows in Port Sarim one day and Nearly had a heart attack.

 

This was way back in RSC when Bronze arrows were the only arrows avaliable in f2p (Excluding Bolts)

No, actually when you try and turn it in before you finish the quest, the king says, "The certificate doesn't even have your name on it!"

[bloody_scife]

A few pices of coal I found on the ground. I sold them for about 100 each and I was thinking "Wow! I got 300gp! My friends will be so proud! I guess I can provide for myself now!"

 

 

 

And also my steel pickaxe . I had it for 2 years. I mined a lot back in the day, as it was the best way to make money to me.

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

No..I did that, and the King took my certificate...
