When you are playing runescape when the paralyse monster prayer was still around.

Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

You're oldschool if you used knife bug to train your pures :|. OR if you visited black hole.

 

 

 

Well this isn't very "oldschool" but at least you started playing in rsc if you got 60 agility on f2p world 8).

When your version of a random event is a lvl 15 walking by saying @ran@ lol

 

Wasn't the 'random event' of the old days 'Null' :P?

 

Anyways, i reckon you're oldschool if you started in 2002 in before.

 

 

 

It was null with no caps, but there was an actual guy called Null, rune pure if i remember

Noob Skillls - 89 Range - 82 Magic - 78 Strength - 80 Hitpoints - 44 Prayer

When the rs website interface was two rows of boxes, when the world select page was across rather than down. When fally wasn't white-washed. When you had to click every fish to cook it, when it took 10 seconds of conversation to get to karajama, when you could go out and cut a yew tree and only 0-1 real players were the only competition. When there was no moat to divide the wild. When Greaters and Lessers looked like giant lizards, when you had to log in to the forums to access them f2p or p2p. When Classic was available to all. I could think up alot more but I'm tired its late here. -.- Bring me back to those days please.

 

 

 

When a message appeared telling you to move out of a particular spot, when there were no bank booths and the banker could only service one person at a time, when Varrock was the biggest market square for trading instead of Falador, When you maged and ranged, they were green and blue balls, when there was no weapon speed, when you flew on a glider it looked like you were wearing it as a hat and you were screaming 'aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!', when full rune was worshipped, when D meds were seriously rare and a status symbol, when the rune 2h was the favoured pking weapon, when full helms were called larges, when demons and dragons looked like a 2d drawing, when Legends was the only master quest, when you only got xp when you've killed the monster, when you needed to get your things certed by Miles, Giles and Niles if you wanted to sell them in bulk, when sound effects were p2p only but sounded really chat, when there was no music, when there was a period of time when they had sleeping bags and fatigue but got rid of it, when there was good and evil prayer and I think magic as well, when Gearshifter and Choppermad were the top players, when there were no multicombat zones... Um, I'm running out of memories to reminisce, someone help me :oops:

I usually stay out of these topics because they pop up every few weeks, but anyway.

Thought it was kinda cool. My best experience was the day logging in RS from RSC and everywhere was packed. 2nd best experience was the day KQ came out, going in there and looting some loot from the people who died. When I log onto my old comp I'll find the pic of everyone fighting and about 100 of the bugs around.

Computers will never be above humans because we made them.

That's what monkeys used to say about us.

I'd rather die for what I believe in than live for anything else.
