ewan Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Who are they really? What are they like, in real life? I've always wanted to know this. There's a popular idea that we're all a bunch of nerds, which makes me laugh, alot. I am certainly not and just wondering what most people are like?

NickCini Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Your normal 20 year old, computer freak here :anxious: Bit of a strange post.. to be frank. I disagree, IMO it's quite a good post. He is correct about the stereotypical RS player being (in my experience) either a nerd or quite gothy. I suppose you could say that i'm smart but not nerdy. I strongly dislike school infact.

It is just an unusual post I don't think its bad at all rather a good one. I don't play RS a lot of my time is spent working, going-out and drinking, I enjoy computers in every aspect and playing games RuneScape just got me hooked. - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danqazmlp Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 From what ive found(being in clans etc and getting to know people) rs players are much different from other players from MMORPG's. There are much more popular, sporty kids playing than in other games. There are many more, if i do say so myself good looking women who play rs too. I believe this is because rs is one of the few games not 100% about combat, and has a community. Mix that with music and msn at the same time and its a totally different player type than most other games. Want to be my friend?

Umega Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I guess I'm a typical geek. :| At pretty much at home all the time playing computer games, playing RS most of that time. I'm hardly social either and I only go to work every 4 hours a day. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range_This11 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I'm one of the most popular kids in my high school and I've played RuneScape for 3 years. I'm a senior, captain of the hockey team, #1 Doubles team for tennis, and center snare for my drumline. I know TONS of kids that play RuneScape that are normal everyday kids and then some that are the "nerd" type, but I don't like to label it as such, because I spend a lot of time on computers, and I'm not a nerd at all. I have a bunch of friends that are into RuneScape hardcore, but we just don't talk about it at school 8-) "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."

Dragon_lord Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Let's see...I have friends and a girlfriend, and I'm always going to parties, so I guess I'm not a nerd. And if you knew what I looked like you would totally agree. 8-) Then I joined a RS clan, and I thought that they were all going to be nerd freaks. Well, we're a pretty tight clan, so we've seen personal photos of each other, and I have to admit not a single one of them even hints of being a nerd irl. Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator? No Tip.Iters were harmed in the making of this post.

I was bored, please no kill me :XD: LMAO...I've said things to my best friend IRL (who also plays runescape) about RS in person...and like halfway through the conversation we'll just say "God....we're so freakin lame.." and laugh about it. But that is exactly how it goes. Rule #1:Never talk about fight club.

mrmyk Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I'm 15 and at a school which is rated as one of the highest in the country with most people in it within the top 10% of the country. I play sports for those school most weekends and do things such as CCF and D OF E.

underu2000 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 High school junior, been playing RS for a while now. I was quite the loser back when I first started, since I just moved here. Strangely my social life grew exponentially the longer I had my runescape account. I don't play much anymore, but I vow not to quit, ever. :notalk: I also vow never to talk about it to any of my friends. :anxious: Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either.

Platinum_Myr Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Lol, I've been playing forever. I used to be super super nerdy about it... then I got a girlfriend :P I talk about rs with friends who play, but I don't talk about it with people who just don't care. I'm a computer geek though :o Lol, I know to much, and all my friends know that, so they all ask me questions.

xSxqPowerx Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Well... I'm 16. Live in Canada. I do well in school, especially in math and whatnot, don't really like English and other more subjective.. subjects. Lol. Although I hate school in general. I play a lot of sports like volleyball, hockey, soccer, I go skiing a lot, and biking. I get to miss school for a volleyball tournament tomorrow :D I like to consider myself a nerd that plays a lot of sports and other un-nerdy activities.
