highlanders Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Does it matter? It's just a game, don't take it so seriously. Lately people have been so serious about Runescape, as if it were the real life. People complain about updates. Even more people complain about the people complaining. People whine, insult, make some ridiculous debates over trivial things. Can we all just stop taking ourselves so seriously and take some time to breathe and remember this is just a game, for leisure activity? Can we see the return of witty jokes, enjoyable threads, and just stop it with all this meaningless critizism of Jagex and other forum users?

Makoto_the_Phoenix Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Don't look now; you're being ironic. I agree with you; seriousness needs to be put aside if only to enjoy the game as is.

Saradomin_Mage Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Weren't you smoking Runescape on some other thread in these forums? :P But anyway I agree that way too many people take this game seriously. Like they can't even enjoy playing a leisurely game... They just have to win or be the best at something. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

Death_Hippy Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Ya it's true people get serious about games...though, a lot of them who do just want to be able to ENJOY the game...if the games unenjoyable to them at that moment because a update MIGHT (doesn't happen often) be ruining their gameplay fun, they complain. Not to say I haven't posted a lot of things... (hey, I like to make rants, it's fun to me) but ya...we need to calm down.

Deiophobus Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 ranting and not doing anything about it is the profile of a normal RuneScape player, a normal human being even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alg Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 being told to enjoying the game isn't something the average 'scaper responds well to... from my experience at least. the rants about ranting are agreeable, at least I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchdreams Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Oh my god, I can't stop laughing seeing who wrote this post. The irony is killing, thanks for the laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastonj7 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 That is so ironic. You have 3000 posts on a site about runescape and you complain how people take this game so seriously, sorry to embarrass you but you are one of them. I don't mind people being serious how does it bother you??? If you mentioned it be more clear on your reason. So who wants to talk about the 0.003% weekly raise of the adamant warhammer or maybe a debate about the year saradomin cooked his first anchovie??? I'm just waiting for a response at my computer while i read a runescape wikipedia page about the history of runescape. You are complaining about people complaining about runescape so in some random scientific way are you more serious then the rest of us ???? ^ l l l btw im talking to you all the way up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I like to spend time on RS, I know that I have a life outside of it. I have a job, I have a family, I pay the bills, just about anything that the average adult performs each day. I can list several members of the Tip It Boards here that I despise for their behavior and personality. But I won't, because I know that doing so will lead me to trouble. For anyone who wishes to make a fuss, cry me a river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBeATank Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 It seems kinda prophetic :P I have seen many more threads just disolve into flaming in the past few weeks than I thought was normal. Or maybe I'm just unlucky... So if its not that I'm unlucky, I agree with he who posted this almost 3 years ago, namely that people need to chill out. :thumbsup: Do keep a level head my friend,in times when Danger rears its headAgainst excessive joy defend,O, my comrade doomed to die. ἢ τὰν ἢ ἐπὶ τὰς Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped playing this game 4 years ago, started playing 6 years ago, and at no point have I EVER seen runescape full of people who weren't taking the game seriously.

Anyways for some reason this old topic seems to be quite popular. : Yeah... you should really start reading the date things are posted. You've kinda bumped like.... multiple threads from years ago.... How far back in the pages are you looking for threads anyways? I generally stay on the first page... If it made it to the second or third page and no ones bothered to bump it, the conversations most likely died out. 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving.
