beniscool218 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I just finished reading this on the Official Runescape Forums, and I was shocked. Here's the main post from the forum: Well playing Runesape since i was 9, I'm now 13 and was supposed to start 7th grade next year but i've decided to drop out. My parents are perfectly fine with this and here's my reasoning: I've learned good grammar from Runescape Runescape has taught me to save money, and work hard for it, It has taught me to be courteous and nice as i don't want to be muted and finnaly it taught me that fishing is a great career choise(I'm looking into becoming a fisherman) So all in all, I've decided to drop out of school and play runescape for all day for 5 years untill im 18 and at that time ill become a fisherman. I mean really... I really haven't read anything more ridiculous than this. First of all, he says that Runescape taught him good grammar, but he's not even using it; second of all, how can a game like this teach you that fishing is a great career choice? Runescape fishing relates only to real fishing in that you get fish out of it. So the discussion here is, would you ever even consider this? What are your thoughts on this person's life plan?

Danqazmlp Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Stopping ANYTHING irl for rs imo is a bad idea. playing 5+ hours a day is fine if you have nothing else to do, its when you start playing and stopping other things that it gets bad.

Galcyte Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 It's not a joke, he has 30 pages of replies, most people are slightly encouraging on rs forums, like wow i wouldn't do that, but fishing is cool so have fun. :-s Personally i think education is probably the most important thing you can get, because without it you can't get good jobs really and it helps you become smarter. :-k i donno this kid is gonna have an interesting life if he can ignore school for a computer game brr im cold you know there are children in africa with aids who would kill to be in your position I don't care!

Mazpot Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 In england you have to go to school until you're 16 (apart fro serious circumstances) I have a full time job and i'm going to university in september, giving up on hopes and dreams for runescape is just foolish imo I attempted to launch a fart, only to have it get stuck between my cheeks.

Galcyte Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 wow for believing him your dumber than he is. :wall: from the length (short) and depth of thought (not much) put into your reply, i can tell that you havn't looked at his thread so a) why would you immediately assume both of us are dumb and B) maybe you should look at it, or in general look at / think about things before commenting on them Whether or not he is really dropping out of school, i agree with what jmod posted after locking the thread brr im cold you know there are children in africa with aids who would kill to be in your position I don't care!
