n_odie Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Hi Everyone! Many set different goals in RuneScape. They can range from a level 99 skill to making 1000 coins! This week's poll asks how often you follow through with goals you set? For discussion, do you enjoy larger goals that take a while to complete or do you prefer more shorter goals to complete? >>> Vote Now! <> View the Results <<< Still see the old poll?

A big thanks to Killerred005 for the suggestion! =D> ~odie RIP MichaelangelopolousThanks to cowboy14 for the pimp sig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markip2 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I sometimes stick to my goals. Just today, i got 70 prayer, something I've been wanting to do for a while now. But then again, I couldn't even fish 100 monks without getting bored. :mrgreen: So I herd You Liek Markip2's?Barrows Drops: V helm x1, Dh Helm x1Dragon Drops: 0 Finally finished RFD on 8/30/08!First one to complete Lumbridge Achievement Diary In World 99 FTW!

boatracer22 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I said most of the time but it depends on how big the goal is and how much i want it and how bad i need it Like my current goal it to get bandos and I am goign to get it along with a decent range lvl and i burned out getting 70 prayer becuse it is just so boring. I should say that it is taking longer than most people. Yeah I can't spell get over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reztral Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I will usually take small breaks while training a skill, but overall I follow through with my goals. When I was going for 99 fishing, I would stop every now and then and hang out with friends or do a quest or two. --8727th person to achieve 99 Fishing on 8/19/2008----6012th person to achieve 99 Thieving on 10/12/2008--R.I.P.

3hitm4g3u Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 If it's combat related definately. Otherwise I get distracted by combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bini Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Yep. If I don't want to finish a goal I go to the next but eventually I will have to finish the previous goal or I just take a long break from RS. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowsEatFood Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I sometimes finish my goals, not all the time though. If a skill makes me really bored, then I don't complete that goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smackapotato Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Yup, pretty much always do. Or move on to something else till I get back to it. EDIT - Signature far exceeds our sig limits but since it's so colourful you can keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rkid Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I try, but I'm slow... I also think halfway through, "Why am I killing myself doing this when this is a game?" and run over to Castle Wars for some rehabilitation. So my answer: Sometimes.

Great_one Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 All the time because something unfinished drives me crazy. and your just crazy yourself, all you do is complete massive goals lol and for me i hardly ever finish my goals...short atention snap ftw. seriously 3 weeks ago i stoped in middle of a slayer task to go wish a friend goodbye b/c he was quiting and i still have yet to finish it... and i was planning on getting 8 more levels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 well i've been at 99 defence for almost 2 years now but im slowly getting there. WILL be my first 99 skill and major goal.... once i get it. Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cehshero Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 i would have to say most of the time my gaols are usely mild and a few lvls higher then i all ready is because i get bored of the skill really fast and it usely for a quest or when i get some thing i want use it and i never go strat for a 99 stat i just take my time use it when i need it and ill get their like magic and wc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I rarely follow through with my goals. I need smaller, baby steps to keep my attention when it comes to Runescape. Too much and it gets far too daunting/boring. EDIT: ! It seems I'm in the minority. Where are all my fellow procrastinators :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandorf61 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I almost always follow up on my goals. For instance a few weeks ago I really wanted to go to GWD and now I've almost got all the required stats. (70 range, defence, attack, hitpoints, 55 slayer, 61 magic) Right now I am finishing the 70 defence mini goal I set within my bigger goal. Overall goals actually help me get things done and thats why I accomplish all of them. Pyramid Plunder Guide Tip.it Forum Rules Adventurer's LogThanks to Cowboy14 for the awesome sig!

Ouchy Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Ha, I am the same as Dan ;) I'll get halfway through it, then go back to something else, then get distracted :-# My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity.

arimu Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I don't set high goals for myself. Always a few levels from this skill, then a few levels of that skill, then a quest... But sometimes, i got bored even for those few levels and then i see myself switching to another skill again :wall: . I use up too much of my time switching skills i guess...

michel555555 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 lets c there was that attempt at 99 fletch nope 99 fm nope 99 cook nope 83 hunter nope then the 92 fm for adze made easier by the attempt for 99, so clsoe but i never want to see a log again -.- on the plus side got 85 slay and currently going for 90 slay and 99 hp. think i might actually finally finish one :thumbsup: [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiJay Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I always finish my goals. It may take awhile but sooner or later I'll get it. Next is 99 magic. \ [404] Signature not found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
