ikraz66 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 If this is true, then I think runescape may very well have been one of the MAIN causes of the depression and suicide. Runescape can be very emotionally involving and if it takes over your life, depression may follow. Personally, a part of me wishes that I never found this game. Before I started, my grades were very nice. After I got into it, my grades definitely went down and I was depressed more often than before. I'm not suicidal though, and I cancelled my subscription again today. This update gave me another reason to quit, something I really needed for the sake of my real life (I'll probably be back by next week). If this kid really commited suicide, then runescape could have been one of the main causes, and this update would have been the catelyst. Proud owner of a Quest cape!

ikraz66 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 And to everyone who said he deserved to die, please leave our community right now and don't come back. That's one of the most horrible things I've ever heard. Don't joke about suicide even if he "might" be lying about it. And if that kid really did kill himself, he didnt deserve to die, he deserved serious help. Proud owner of a Quest cape! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9jonathan9 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Never joke about someone killing themselves or say he was better off dead. Every human life is precious and simply because you are under a lot of emotional stress, it doesn't mean you should die. On another note, it's "whether" not "weather" [Admin Edit: Referrals are not permitted on the Tip.it Forums] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC_Kejml Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Those players deserve to die. Something who is so bound to an online game would kill himself eventually. Who are you to judge who should/would die ? EDIT: Wow, now I noticed the posts before mine. Seems I'm not alone in this matter. And for other info regarding runescape being a great thing, please read my previous post. ^ my book :^_^: I don't play anymore, but I'm grateful I played through the best RS times!

Kenshinjapan Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 What's with the people saying that "if he's mind was messed up, it's good he's dead." The way you wrote it says that they are glad he's dead. The way that it is meant to be interprited (If his mind was that fragile, he's as good as dead) means that anything could have pushed him over the edge and it's not jagex, the governments, or anyone besides the parents' fault that he killed himself.

Randox Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Seems beliveable and thats sad but... I am really starting to feel that all this complaining is quite selfish. Thje community as a whole will be better as a result of the updates and all this "it sucks for me" is reallt annoying. Its not grand me me either and I skill/quest for a living in game. I am looking at inflated prices on some of the stuff I buy, btu if it means not competing agains bots and dealing with scamers I am all for it. My empathy for selfish people has run out. People can get used to most anything, if his life was that bad he could have gotten used to the new game im sure. I would feel sorry for him but the RuneScape community has used up all my empathy :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberthree Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 He's right, if your mind is in such a fragile state and no one cares enough to notice and try to help, you are better off dead. Well, I think about suicide every day. I never tell anyone though. So I'd be better off dead? Hmmmm..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gameboypen Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I believe his loss because you have to be a pretty sick individual to make a joke out of something like this. Many people probably escape to rs because of rl problems and everyone should be aware of that and treat others with respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if this is going to sound condescending: Looking at the world today, you don't think sick individuals exist? If the answer is no, enjoy your bubble while it lasts. I am a tree.

Vincent Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 where are the mods on this? shouldnt this be in off topic? i dont think this is appropriate for the forums to be spreading rumors. i sound like a wbm but its true. and life is short as it is. whatever you're going through, you'll get through it. hang in there and there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Vincent Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 you dont have to call him an idiot and there is an off topic forum. and any talking about problems is usually more helpful to a person then keeping it all in and to yourself.

Don't be so damn ignorant, people are free to discuss what they want, and that makes you more of a low life insulting them rather then keeping your mouth shut.

R3c0ilz Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 you dont have to call him an idiot and there is an off topic forum. and any talking is usually more helpful then keeping it all in and to yourself. the age limit on rs is what? 13 or something? so officially there is kids on this forums, and he is talking about his suicidal feelings on a website about a game whos population consist of alot of younger people? if he wants help he should go find it, on a different website where they have special places for comments like that. but sure, let him mentally scar someone by talking about him wantin to kill himself. im 20 and i find a comment like that on here pathetic and disturbing. emo much? .Former Level 3 Skiller Turned Main.

MC_Kejml Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I can't believe someone who is 20 would say something like this .. :-k I'll just kindly encourage you to look at some other threads then calling people idiots. You don't like it either and I doubt you know the suicide guy. ^ my book :^_^: I don't play anymore, but I'm grateful I played through the best RS times!
