In-game boyfriends/girlfriends

[Lightshayde]

Well in most cases, I think the fact is the people are trying to find "rich" bf's/gf's for the sake of mooching off of them. But now, im not shure why they would even bother due to the trade limit updates. I, for one, find it DAMN annoying.

 

 

 

And most of the time, they're saying so.

 

'dancing for rich bf plox'

 

Really, how much of a loser can someone be?

[darkace21]

I used to find it amusing to watch people do this, then go "Now you's my bf/gf. Phr33 st00f pl0x."

 

 

 

Funnily enough, some people gave them stuff and said bf/gf went "Thanks noob." and left. Amusing.

[Omali]

Dude, you guys are just jealous. I have a girlfriend and we love eachother very much.

 

 

 

You gloating about your runescape girlfriend you'll never meet is like gloating about that shape you carved into your leg with a pen knife. It's disgusting and pathetic, and nothing to boast about.

[Fairness]

The stupid trade limit stopped nothing. To this day I see "3k plz" and to this day I see "Looking for rich bf/gf".

 

 

 

By the way, is it a breach of #1 to comply with someone's "be my bf" request? I'd like to mess around with them but with my half-deserved 5.4 blackmarks I don't want to do too many stupid things.

[jij29]

bless jagex for the ignore list ;) just add ppl who ask to be bf/gf in your ignore list and you wont be bothered again

[Fairness]

Next one, preferably with an answer?

 

 

 

EDIT: Whoops, that sounds rude. Still, I know about the ignorelist. #-o

If you don't want the risk, make a noob account and level him up enough to be up to standards with someone who would date on Runescape.

 

 

 

What I don't understand is how you could mooch off of someone this way now. Most of this happens in f2p, and the most you can get is 3k every 15 minutes. Hardly the "Let me wear your santa hat, I'll look cute in it" that we once knew.

[hill1193]

I made a female account once to see what would happen in f2p. Let me tell you, it was disgusting what people would say. I reminded about every person who made comments that I was just pixels, and I was really male. Some of the responses were hillarious.

[highlanders]

Years back, I used to get a ton of requests to be someones bf, and I accepted a couple to see howd they react. Most of them just say hi and chitchat a bit, but never talked to me again afterwards, even though they were on my list. One of them was very persistant, she had this romantic and very disney-worldish idea of a bf. She wanted us to take walks, she wanted me to bring her flowers, she wanted me to come see her whenever she wanted even if I was busy, she also wanted gifts but that didn't seem to be her main motivation. Weird times...

[magician_xy]

I think we should count ourselves lucky. Yeah, so there are weirdos who try to get a gf or a bf in game. That's nothing compared to Maplestory, where players can actually MARRY each other in game. Plus, when they do, they get attack bonuses for fighting together, among other things. :shock: :wall:

[KillTyrant]

It is quite annoying. I used to try to be polite to those asking me to be their gf, telling them at first, "no thank you," and when they persisted (as they almost always did), telling them I had a real boyfriend who would not appreciate it or trying to explain that I simply had no interest in an in-game bf and I thought it was a silly idea. I actually think it is a stupid idea, but would say "silly" because it seemed less harsh.

 

 

 

After a few years of this, I no longer even try to be polite. I just either say "nty" (I don't even bother to type it out) or ignore the person entirely. I get about the same results as when I tried to be more polite, but with far less effort and annoyance on my part.

 

 

 

I had thought this would be less of a problem after the new trading restrictions went into effect, but that hasn't been the case.

 

 

 

hah I would usually bring my mod friend over and have them muted hahaha

[heehee111]

im a level 101 girl and got 40 noobs a day telling me im hot and ask me if i want to be their gf. STFU.

[Death_Hippy]

I searched the forums for this and didn't find this topic anywhere so I decided to start one.

 

 

 

Everywhere I go in runescape (Falador, Varrok, mainly Lumbridge) there's always at least one person there asking for a boyfriend or girlfriend. As many times as you tell the person that it's against the rules to ask for one, they either keep on asking or follow you around trying their best to deny that it's against the rules. If stuff like this happens to you and gets you annoyed, post it here.

B-but I started a topic on this a while ago =*( (On a side note, just don't go to Lumby to avoid the Gf/Bf thing. It's ok though if they're actually dating irl =P)

[yondergod22]

yup I agree. you don't see it so much in members worlds though.

 

 

 

rofl while back when I first started and wanted free stuff(no I wan't a beggar noob, thankfully) I made a girl character named hotgirl or something like that and got a boyfriend to get free stuff and then drop traded it to my main. lol that was so funny.

[thered]

i think its cool to have an in game gf

[Mico]

Might i give you a well earned OWNED. In-game girlfreinds and boyfriends are for the very lonely people that don't have either in real life. It's just stupid.One time, This kid came up to me while i was cutting yews (who was 11) and started telling me "I love you so much please will you go out with me" and i said "no you don't go away". But he wouldn't shut up so he found a greatly deserved spot on my ignore list. :shame:

[abbydog95]

its reportable,after u report just add them too ignore and log out for a sec or walk away

[eatrunearrow]

The thing I find funny is that now with the trading update... has anyone else noticed that ingame bf/gf's have pretty much become extinct???? LOL . All it was ... was a bunch of 8 year old boys making their characters girls in order to get free things! ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

 

One time one this super hot "GirL" followed me to around asking to be my gf .... well i walked north and "she" kept following me... and I lead her to her death in the wild LOL..

[boelie]

People can do whatever they want, but basically a Runescape boy or girlfriend (or any other kind other than real life for that matter) is the most [developmentally delayed]ed thing I've ever heard.

[Pawn]

I find it extremly sad. They really think by typing in "need gf/bf" they will get one? Really, these are kid's from miniclips or something under the age of 12. Just report em, easy as that. And cross your fingers they get muted and quit.

 

 

 

REMEMBER what a MMO is:

 

 

 

M-Mostly

 

M-Men

 

O-Online

 

R-Role

 

P-Playing

 

G-Girls

[harper128]

Hmm, lets think of some ways to mess with them then.:) Mostly for the gf one though.

 

 

 

Ask them what their cooking skill is, if it isn't any good, just tell them you won't go out with someone who can't cook for you. If it's decent, ask them what their cleaning skill is. If they actually play along with that, and you're feeling daring, ask them what their foreplay skill is. I probably wouldn't recommend that last one though, might get you into trouble, but could end up being very funny.

 

 

 

Here's one. If you see someone just asking to be anyone's gf (modify for bf).

 

, honey, is that you?

 

Honey, come home, please, the kids miss you.

 

Little Billy's been cryin hisself to sleep since you left.

 

And Sally Jo ain't bin right since... well, since the trouble.

 

I don think yer gonna git inter trouble fer that lil mishap.

 

I jus tol the cops it were an accident.

 

The trailer just ain't bin home without you.

 

 

 

Continue as you wish, probably be best if you have a low level account to do it with, maybe something below level 20.:)

[Mercifull]

Runescape is a role playing game, who are you to say its "sad" that people want an ingame relationship. There is nothing wrong with getting "married" in the game and having a good time with your friends. Some people forget that Rs is a game sometimes.

Yeah, they forget it's a game and get a girlfriend in that game... it's stupid.

[Skinzo04]

Yeah, this happens to me alot. It's pathetic. Atleast it's not as bad as it was before the trade limit came. They're all after the same thing, money.
