samurai_lassie Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I am officially taking a break from RuneScape some of you may have already known... I achieved 99 Mining the hardest skill in the whole game i made enough money for a santa hat souly from mining and making bow strings. I had done what i had originally set out to do i had done what was considered "amazing" for some people but with the wide range of features in the game i was drawn to get more... more money more levels more items more quests and it will never stop until i have realised i have wasted many a year doing it can never stop it really cant there will always be new things to do in Runescape you can have maxed 200 M exp in all skills and still have nothing in real life. The definition of fun is not clicking something to get "experience" for hours on end i see people who probably couldnt stand waiting for a bus for 10 minutes, But can stare at a computer screen for hours people are getting paid thosands to do that even. I am not saying the whole game is flat out skilling but as devoted said :"the fun is in the journey not the reward" wisest thing i have ever heard from some one is Rune scape and i follow that. I see people who are drawing back from friends and work to finish a quest or go the last mile to get a level - and most of the time they say it is boring :lol: . I could be back playing again in 1 month i could not come back until over 2 years but it does not really matter by doing this at the height of my goals and addiction on Runescape (i am wanting to play as much as any one here) it is showing that no matter what is happening in a game it will not draw me from the real world. My Bank Picture: Facts - The toy horsey has been in my bank ever since i saved the money from mining tin and copper to buy it i remember selling everything but my bronze pick axe to buy it, all the way to 70 mining i had it in my inventory - I mined all the ores in my bank an estimate of what ive mined and stored is 25,000 iron/25,000 coal/6,000 addy ore/ 10,000 mithril/1,000 runite ore. -All logs i cut. - I have not spent any gp on skills but recently farming/runecrafting - I have never had more then one expensive costume. - After dieing with my pouchs twice i have spent 6 hours getting them back even ask erad he had to put up with my moaning about having such bad luck ... - In the old days i belive i had made over 40,000 bow strings out of my own flax picked in seers. -All the people that i knew when i first started the game who i mined along side have all quited including my real life friends. -I have never been a member more then 2 months i think more coming.. (lost screen shot for 65) My Final Statistics: <------click on my runescape name link Goals abandoned : - 99 farming - a purple party hat - a whole row of my bank with skill capes Bia, Bia Thanks for reading and any plees considering how i should not quit will fall on empty ears i must thank all my friends i have met while playing. I will now leave you with a quiet funny picture. - i will upload pictures of all my great times in runescape later - 563rd to 99 mining on 15/08/0799 Farming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samurai_lassie Posted October 7, 2007 Author Share Posted October 7, 2007 Don't quit! I always loved you for getting 99 mining! Kind of funny that you say that and have never posted on my old blog :lol: :D :wink: ur not quitting. i wont let u nub :P Not a chance im as good as already quit my account has 1 day of membership then i am in the F2P dumps and then there is no going back. No! Don't go! :cry: i must, i must... If i am online i will be clearing up runescape reporting all yew/willow/mining bots - Thanks every one and by the way to the people who think that 99 mining is not the hardest skill in the game Unbuyable, 30-42k exp/h, continuous clicking mining iron/granite requires constant clicking Click iron rock Click iron rock Click iron rock drop iron ore drop iron ore drop iron ore *rocks respawn instantly - repeat* it would take 600 hours or so doing that for 99 and your telling me its not the hardest skill. But regardless of what the hardest skill is in the game this is not the place to discuss or argue over it i am just warning you i do not want spam over this thread and i will report people who do. 563rd to 99 mining on 15/08/0799 Farming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
