starmily Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I play mostly for relaxation. I have a stressful job and work far more hours than I'd like....so Runescape is a nice diversion. I also really enjoy chatting with friends (both those I know irl and those I've made while playing). As for goals, they can change from day to day. I'm currently kinda working on 76 fishing (at 72 now), so that I can fish sharks (not for money or xp, but just so I can do it). However, I often end up doing something quite different than I'd planned once I sign on. Yesterday, for example, I did no fishing at all, as a friend asked me to go chop willows with her. I went and we had a good time -- and I didn't regret not fishing one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchphoenix Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I play Runescape just for relaxation and to accomplish something (even if it's just virtual). Currently I'm busy on 99 fletching (98 at the moment) and finish up 1k of toadflax seeds. After that I think I'm going to hunt for some cash and eventually buy some good armour and become F2P again.

ssbmbeliever Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 My goal is this: Get all skills to 99, this will take about 10years at least, but I won't quit until I at least do that, I've never been member though, so I'm at 1 in all of those, anyway look me up on highscores "power ness", to find my nonmem skills, they're all ranked... Really there is nothing else to do, but let me give you this quote I got from the tip it times. It's not the destination, but the getting there that counts. If you do this, you will be happy. Thanks for listening. Signature your in it put backwards this read to enough smart were you if.A quick quote for those who have goals that seem far away.Success is a journey, not a destination.

Pinkbullet3 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Something to waste my time on. I shouldn't even be playing, considering it won't help me in the long run unlike studying my Physics book or something. But who cares, haha. :D ^ Blog.

ssbmbeliever Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 My main goal is to get 99 in every skill before and if I quit. And even if I do quit, I'll keep my account active so I can play again if I ever want to. One thing to remember though(and yes it's in my signature as well.): Signature your in it put backwards this read to enough smart were you if.A quick quote for those who have goals that seem far away.Success is a journey, not a destination.

Erichermit Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I suppose Runescape is a form of escapism for me, I can forget who I am on the outside world and become an adventurer! :D It's also the following; fun, a place to meet new people, a way of passing time and a way to relax :thumbsup: Hit the nail on the head. In Runescape I can be a powerful Adventurer and go do anything I want really. I like being able to explore new areas and kill monsters. And see my skills go up and increase the amount of things I can do. Do you hate Wyverns or Warped Terrorbirds? Think again!

SomeWelshGuy Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Something to do really. Summer can get boring, especially when it rains all summer and you have to find something to do for 24 hours a day for 6 weeks. When school starts again, obviously school is more important, but even then it's still nice to just take a break for an hour from coursework and such. Retired Tip.It Crew Mapper.

Carl Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Friends, simple as. If I were't to have those special people on my list I wouldn't be playing today. I lost interest in skilling/training a long time ago. As most know I just stand in Edge MOST of the time talking. RIP Michaelangelopolous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imaerehw14 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 It used to be an addiction. I would spend hours hacking away at beasts that respawn on a predictable spot or on a tree to gain minimal experience, in hopes that one day I could achieve a level that would reward me in some way. As of today, RuneScape is merely a time filler when all of my other time fillers have been exhausted. This means if I have nothing to do with friends/family/school, I am bored with COD4, I am bored with CS:Zero, I am bored with CS:1.6, and I want to talk to my friends on ventrilo that still play the game, i will hop onto RuneScape and make a few potions. I find it weird that about 4 months ago I was staying up until 4-5 in the morning trying to get that elusive Saradomin hilt drop, or trying to get enough money for 70 herblore, 70 construction, and 70 Runecrafting. Now I spend a maximum of 2 hours on the game a week, and that is a generous statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune_User Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I hardly play, but when I do it's just a time killer. Of course there's the friend benefits as well, but I use other ways to converse with my "RuneScape friends" like IRC and TeamSpeak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
