blackrainbow Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 When you first started playing RS did you read all the rules and the guides to get started or did you just dive in and start playing and learn as you went along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iantiger Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I'm pretty sure I just dived in, and learnt them intuitively. I think most of them are common sense, but there are a couple (real world item trading for instance) that you learn from in the occasional "Banned Players" news updates, or from other players in game, etc. ~Ian Retired Tip It Moderator | Zybez Radio DJ - Listen Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celestrana Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I read all the rules and some of the FAQs on the Official Site prior to playing. Since RuneScape is (was) my first MMOG, I wanted to know what was the difference between it and other competing games. One point that made RS unique was the hardware requirements: you only need enough to run the Java RTE, which is great since playing the newest and coolest game cannot justify the cost of a new computer. Plus, the idea of playing a game for free was appealing too! :thumbsup: Knowledge is Power; a Tip.it guide answers many commonly asked questions.~Celestrana: Making of a Hero ~ (Visit my blog, today!)

Randox Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 i had no idea there were rules until i saw the report abuse button then i had a look at the rules You thought there were no rules? I might have had a brief look, but I figured they would be the normal common sense rules, and I did read them befor to long. I think I read them befor I worked up the corage to really talk to people.

rune2thescape Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I read the rules and quite a lot of the guides actually as I could only read stuff about RuneScape at school, I wasn't allowed to use the internet then #-o . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam007 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Rules are rules, just use common sense. I didn't immediately read them before playing if memory serves right, but obviously eventually got around to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vesuvius27 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 When I made my first account, I started to read the rules, but eventually, gave up because they were so long, and I wanted to play. :) My Blog - Fishing 82/99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tippyc Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 i found this game on miniclip.com, so i just dove in without reading anything. i have still never read all of the rules except for inside the report abuse button and ive been playing for more than a year, but i use the manual and the tip.it items and monsters guides all the time since i discovered them about six months ago. Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Nope, I never read rules for anything. I act mature and not an idiot, and never got punished.

mirage Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I definitly dived right into the game, but i had a friend showing me the ropes so he probably taught me most of the rules. I did eventually get around to reading all of them about a year ago, which is kinda sad since i have been playing for about 5 years :shock: Current goal: Getting enough prayer pots to finish my last four quests.

highlanders Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Not at all. In rsc there was a lot of "rule ads" instead of the current commercial adds, so you just had to look at the ads and you would know them. It's obvious stuff anyway, no need to read them... 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
