Remember When...

[Carl]

I liked your story.

 

 

 

I started playing in October of 06, a "newby" I shall call myself. I much prefared it back then.

 

 

 

I'd rather RWT, Free Trade, autoing were still here trather than us losing out on a great deal of player interaction. I miss the old game, it seems we're all being pushed away from teh game while other, younger, less mature people are being reeled in and ruining it for us all.

 

 

 

Things used to be fun and people helped each other out, now everything costs.

 

 

 

:cry:

[jeffyroth]

Yes, me too. I never thought this would get this much attention..

[Tbfgraphx14]

I rememeber mining in the old lumby swamp, the old interface and the '06 easter event, a little after I started. Unfortunetly I was too nooby so realize what a christmas event was when I started to I never got it :P

[Kazel]

I remember when bot-killing was a sport \, and when you could make a profit by buying something low and selling it high -.-

 

 

 

Sometimes I miss the good ol' days, sometimes I think that this is just fine. Now new players have several gigantic safety nets all over. Roughing it was a great part of the experience.

[mugged99]

ah, i miss the old times. When things like 126 combat or a 99 stat were challenging. And when lvl 100 combat used to be really good.

 

 

 

Now the game is much easier...look at all the money making ways, and trading shortcuts -.-

 

 

 

I dont even know what to do in rs anymore

[sibmaster]

I Remember when runescape was actually decent -.-

[evil_mumm_ra]

yeah, i remember how it was. i remember certs, no random events, no symbols for pmods, i remember the rs2 beta. i still have 0 problem with how it is now. i always feel so awkward in threads that end up like this.

I do not miss certs at all.

[Ouchy]

I can remember the days when you could freely trade, and merchanting was very profitable.

exactly

 

the G/E has ruined everything

I rember when more people would take 30 seconds to nicely answer a question. I rember when my my combat level of 100 would have garned me respect rather being labled as [wagon] and people would ask for help on quests (I enjoyed helping). Still, there are good people who play, you just need to find them.

those good people quit recently like the rest of us -.-

2007? Buddy, you don't remember 1/3 of the good days.

LOL, remember when they brought in certs but you STILL had to spend hours changing your stuff into certs to sell it anyway? Utterly pointless!

Hey sib. Go to hell. This game is better than ever and you're just bitter.

[Superlife77]

I've been playing for four years, and you wanna know how many Combat Levels I got in that time? 70... =P I was never the best Combat-Leveler, but now I'm goin a lot faster.

 

 

 

Back on topic: I remember being on Vacation up in New York in the '06 (or was it '07?) Easter Event, I was pissed off xD. I also remember the old graphics, OH MY GOD! I thought the interface was pretty good back then... NOPE now looking at it, it sucked =P I remember merchanting too =X And when the Duel Arena was Members Only? =P That was the good 'ole days.

Well said.

 

 

 

A direct comparison of RS 7 years ago to what it is today can only lead one to the conclusion that RS has always - and will continue - to make vast improvements. Everytime something new is released that changes gameplay(however slightly), a vocal but relatively small contingent of the gameplaying population hail the end of RuneScape. The remaining million players continue playing, confident in Jagex's ability to keep their eye on the ball.

 

 

 

RuneScape is a work in progress, thus is the nature of the beasts known as MMORPGs. Things are changed, reworked and then changed again. Believe me when I say that RuneScape has been extremely shrewd with their chosen updates and revamps compared to some other games I've played.

 

 

 

They also listen to the gaming populace, as shown with their planned PvP servers and various other incidences in the past.

 

 

 

RS = win.

[JustAGamer]

I was never around during the days of RSC, i joined in the year of the yo-yo. 8-)

 

 

 

I still miss the days when dragon made you a legend. But then, combat was much simpler then. I didn't have to choose between bandos, barrows, or whatever when going off to fight. :P

[wcingisbad]

Remember when demons, dragons and giants were given a nice graphical makeover :roll:

[appleman]

remember when cooked lobby certs were 1.5k each :P

[Mac_The_Rocker]

I remember when you could exploit Varrock sewers and go into the 'dark space' outside the walls (:

RUNESCAPE HAS BEEN RUINED!

 

and no i am not one of these noobs that just goes "omg bring back the wildy", because tbh i dont really miss it. i just prefered the game SO much better like 3 years ago!

[Mylez]

*Sigh*

 

I remember classic, I've played on and off, various players since around 2002. I've seen many changes, however most have been for the better :)

 

 

 

The thing I miss most is the aspiration towards certain items such as Dragon and Rares. The was a time when Dragon armour was rare, D Meds were in excess of 1m, and Rares were highly sought after, not now though, people can't sell them!

 

 

 

I think there are way too many highly powered items in the game, but that's just me ;)

[Nenga]

I was browsing my old screen shots and found some old pics, mostly of tet events.

 

 

 

[hide=pictures] Thats the Steve Irwin memorial event

 

 

 

Thats the tet halloween bash 5

 

 

 

That is the first bad taste party I believe, either that or an Easter party. I am the last magic egg in line before the pink and blue egg.[/hide]

 

 

 

Ahh good times. I have other pictures but i'm to lazy to post them up. (like last year's great tipit pic, picture)

[mmmorgan]

i miss the fact that u cant give items to anyone anymore. when i heard trade limits were comming out i grabbed a stash of my gold and went to f2p. i started shouting free 100k to all. the people who called me a liar didnt get money. but the people who were nice got money and some items. i gave away millions then. i remember giving my gf's lil brothers and cousins practically anything they wanted, being low lvl f2p this was great for them. i remember going to p2p and i told a friend from work about it and later that night she gave me a d long 200k worth of pots and 200k cash to get me started on p2p. however i do remember trying to cut a yew down and not being able to with all the bots. :x

 

 

 

so giving up one of the things i loved the most solved one of the things i hated the most.
