StGerolf Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 finally the editor! Some of the previous articles were also good, but from the editor we know it will be good. I do like the achieving the goals, but my goals aren't difficult yet. Getting one lvl higher is not yet so difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes_Its_Ross Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Runescape should be enjoyed, it should not be a chore, and neither should a regular old school day in your life. BS! Hehe, nice article. I usually feel the same way about Runescape, and thats why I train all of my skills up, not just one. 50+ all skills by the way. \ ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yanksrule Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 apologies to the intro that was formerly here. I'm sorry for who-ever i insulted i was wrong for putting that. i didn't mean to direct it at the editor i meant the article not the person him/herself. the reason why we have goals is so we can experienced more whether it be a skill or in an item. i for example got to 75 fletching that was one one my goals and i said to myself over and over again while fletching that i would make millions and get really rich when i finally reach this goal. this goal led to many others expanding my horizons based on this one goal. from experiencing my (first) 3rd mill i got to the point where i said to myself well... hey look veracs is only 5.something million i have 3m lets EXPAND my horizons on ways to make money while still doing fletching i made money and more money. i eventually got 83 fletching and i got veracs and i killed the kalphite queen. ( that was another goal of mine. along with goals come challenges. that little (big for people who are going to make fun of me for it) bug gave me hardly any trouble).. and while i complete each goal after another i see that i can give others advice while i do each goal of every day. when i talk to friends of mine and i ask what they're up too they say oooh... im just picking flax in seers; well i can help them by saying well if you go to Lleta (elf place) theres a place where you can pick flax thats right next to the bank. and then i can also tell him, you can spin your flax in lumbridge castle and thats within walking distance to the bank. You look me straight in the eye and tell me you have no goals at all when you play runescape. if you don't then you DO NOT PLAY. reasoning: when you're working on smithing and you go oh hey i got 26 mithrill ore from a random event well lets go mine myself some coal so i can get some smithing exp or even just have the peace of mind of not looking at that mithrill ore day-to-day (or even the bank space). whether or not its a short term goal such as this it doesn't matter. a goal can last about half a second. reasoning: ooh i have weeds in my bank that I'm not going to need at all. lets drop these. so you drop them . thats a GOAL. goals don't need to be of a certain time period they just need to have an end result whether or not its good or not depends on what you do or who is doing the goal. I'm very disappointed in this article i expect better in this article from the editor. *i invite some one to disagree with me and give their opinion based on what i said. if anything i want people to realize the sense of my reasoning.* Wow, watching this thread is better than pro wrestling! =D>This thread is probably better than pro wrestling because the fights here are real (And the boobs).

Kcross73 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 So very true indeed, that's why I've been playing since 2004 and I still don't even have 100 combat, and I think my total level is still pretty low. Good article :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitar_god_2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 thats made me now think maybe i should let my goal of 99 firemaking and the goal of getting a visage drop stop for a while, untill i find the main reason i wanted these. as is said in the artical once i get my 99 firemaking i will have the happy feeling for a short amout of time and once i get my visage the money wont make me happy for that long. well ill take it a day at a time ^_^ Goals: 15m Slayer xp | 85 Herblore | 75+ All Stats | Chaotic Rapier | 125k/200k Tokens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyMcNabb Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 wow i think I've taken dumps that aren't as full of [cabbage] like this. the reason why we have goals is so we can experienced more whether it be a skill or in an item. i for example got to 75 fletching that was one one my goals and i said to myself over and over again while fletching that i would make millions and get really rich when i finally reach this goal. this goal led to many others expanding my horizons based on this one goal. from experiencing my (first) 3rd mill i got to the point where i said to myself well... hey look veracs is only 5.something million i have 3m lets EXPAND my horizons on ways to make money while still doing fletching i made money and more money. i eventually got 83 fletching and i got veracs and i killed the kalphite queen.

I'm very disappointed in this article i expect better in this article from the editor. *i invite some one to disagree with me and give their opinion based on what i said. if anything i want people to realize the sense of my reasoning.* You missed the point of the article, he wasn't saying "Don't have goals..." He was saying, there's no point in having those goals if they are full of monotiny and don't bring you any happiness. Also, even if your argument would have had a valid point it doesn't do you any favours opening your argument with a snide and unintelligent comment.

estarayella Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 so nice to hear from the editor again! nice article with very good points. my goals are to hit 99 theiving ( 78/99) and 99 herblore (57/99... long way to go) BEFORE i hit level 80 combat (currently 79 :-k ) in reply to yanksrule... i think you may have missed some of the artice's point. The editor is not saying that we should not have goals, s/he even goes so far as to say that having goals is a good thing. the point of the article was that we shouldnt get so wrapped up in our goals that we dont enjoy what we are doing anymore. sometimes there are days when i really want to hit you..... this is one of those days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umega Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 If the aspect of 'looking forward to something' is removed from the game, I doubt many people would be playing Runescape right now. Yes, this game should only be played for fun, but most players and the game itself is being driven by the need of fulfillment. As for me, I still sometimes have a sense of fulfillment with my current rares. I'm also still proud that I have 99 thieving. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.
