rareghoul1 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I have the things in my house because they are the most efficient (marble wardrobes to hold all my stuff, ect..), or because I like them. I want a skeletal throne, cuz i like the way it looks. I build my house how I like it. I have dragon armor because it is good, yes, but I like it, I am not as rich as everyone seems to insist I am because I have it. Once again, I have it 'cuz I like it. I'm going for 99 fm because I want the orange skill cape. I don't care if you like the cape, if you are impressed by it, or if you have more 99's. I like it. dude, you like just about anything that's orange. anyway, i don't really have the money to show, i have nothing out of the ordinary, so i always wear my armor. you never know when a random might pop up. i like more practicallity, but if i had a phat or santa, i would wear, because it shows off my success and helms don't provide much protection. i would not wear elegant even if i had, it provides no protection in the areas where u get the most. as for houses, i don't waste my money on con, i use it on buying supplies/armor/bones.

Quinton595 Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 cool.. it seems that most of u have a good head on ur shoulders... \ BUt trust me... there are peopel out there who play just to show off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardovilian Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 No, no and no. In fact, when I am skilling I invariably wear nothing (my character not me), unless it requires a lot of running around e.g. farming, in which case i will wear a spotted cape and boots of lightness. Why is 'common sense' so named, when there is so little of it about?Welcome to puberty, we've been expecting you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slurpn711 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I also do what I think is fun (thats why my rc and herblore levels are so low). But I do like to show off my naval. Just because it took a lot of work, and it looks so flippin sweet. Hangin loose. Marrentil can die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greedom1 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 =D> Spot on. I totally agree. Play this (or any other game) for yourself. The new capes have completely made your point a major issue in RS. Is the leveling about your own enjoyment (99's have never been private since friends lists and hiscores), or a mixture between conspicuous achievement and personal gratification... It depends on the player always. To me, the more mature and well-balanced player will level for themselves first and others a distant second. RSN: Greedom1 | QP 248+ | Combat 116 | Total 1920+ | Skills 95 craft, 99 farm, 88 herb, 91 mage, 85 slayer Values? What do they mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshinjapan Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Runescape is actually just a competitive game to show off in. If it wasn't a competitive game, noone would have any 99s, there wouldn't be hi-scores, and 99% of the players wouldn't be here because there would be no point in raising your skills :thumbsup: .

speedy1135 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I think that the most expensive and best looking stuff is also the best. For example: Full dragon, barrows or 3rd age, this is the best, but also the best looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azzazeal Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Honestly no. I do want I want in runescape. I would wear my favorite armour but that dragon Chainbody is a luttle out of reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbfgraphx14 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I wasted 11M on 72 Con and stuff in my poh (now im f2p how great) but mainly it was to please myself with it and not others.

piman1053 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Ya, I do, or at least I have in the past, but now I am successfully adopting the philosophy that runescape is a waste of time and now I only play it to waste time. The first one, no, I hate spending cash on skills and houses are generally overrated. All I really need in a house is the few basic rooms, a coustume room, a quest hall for a glory, a workshop to repair (friends') barrows' armor, an alter for my mad dash to max prayer (which is a skill I LOOOOOVE ) and a canafis portal. I am not guilty on the second count. Chucking away 20 mil for a set of full dragon that isn't as good as Torag's (from a defensive standpoint) dosen't sit well with me, especially because I haven't trained combat seriously in months. The third thing I have done, to an extent. I unfortunately joined the trend of people maxing skills as opposed to training here and there. However, I cannot deny that I hated firemaking past 90, but There's little point in just getting to 90 when you (and the rest of the game) is focused on those little sins of vanity: skillcapes. Overall, I'd have to say I did, although I make a point not to train skills that I don't like and to train skills that I do like. I don't like combat, so I don't kill. Earlier this week, farming was the only skill I could tolerate, so I did nothing but farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddeeh Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I, in my oppinion, think that if you do stuff for other people and don't realise that the game isnt about pleasing other people, but that it's about pleasing youself, then you dont belong on ruescape. :notalk: Out of all the scammers, hackers, autoers, gold farmers, arrogant pures and theother 10 minllion "groups" in RS, you chose these people as the people you believe shouldn't play? :uhh: Looking at the big picture, technically everything in the world is a waste of time, because nothing anyone is done as efficiently as is humanly possible.

blakdragon39 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I wear the best looking expensive stuff I can :P I like to look rich, even though I'm not :( Lol My house has only what I need in it :P I'm trying to get the con lvls for a gilded alter, for my own personal use. I however, play this game for fun. I've never seriously considered going for a 99 skill, because I know it would be extremely not fun, and kind of pointless. If I get bored of something, even if I'm going for a goal? I normally will quit :P Only serious goal I ever went for and acheived would be 85 mining :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryptogram Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I'm really a pragmatic person on runescape. My house is adorned with useful things like armour repair stand, lecturn, marble altar and the most used teleportals. The only armour I keep is the best armour you can get, same with weps. I have a couple of rune sets for pking and wildy excursions. When I'm running about the place, I wear boots of lightness and spotty cape, ring of duelling and a glory for teles. I like my char to wear a hat so I have the Lunar Villager hat. No bling, just practical. Don't follow me. You might not make it.All your accounts are belong to us now.If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GfxFortress Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I don't think I have done anything, directly as a way to impress people. Obviously people like going for that 99 Skill to wear the cape to show off? If you had a party set, wouldn't you get it out for 5 minutes each day and swap them in a rainbow like effect? Showing off is part of Runescape, working hard for that level then gloating that you have it. :thumbsup: That's why you should go for 99 Runecrafting and then be like " Oh yeah oh yeah! " \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirror Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 My house isn't top notch, my wardrobe is far from rich, and I don't train something unless I want to. Some people get pleasure from showing off, but I play how I play which might not be the same for others. A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.
