HugeBrain Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Why is it that people have multiple accounts? Why train a lesser account instead of training your main? I can understand pker multi's but that is it. When I see a level 3 with 99 woodcutting I think "noob." When I see a level 90 with 99 woodcutting I think: "Wow! He's got 99 woodcutting!" Why train a new account instead of training your main? I get really confused when people are paying for membership for two or even greater multi's. If you do have a multi or know why anyone would or should get a multi, I would appreciate your enlightenment. It would be greatly appreciated if all submissions would be officially credited to Huge Brain.How much is your account worth to you?

obfuscator Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Some people just get bored of training their main. From a skiller's perspective, training at a very low combat can make the game very interesting.

badphooeybad Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Some people just get bored of training their main. From a skiller's perspective, training at a very low combat can make the game very interesting. Once you get higher leveled, it takes a lot longer to level up obviously. Going back to a lower level and getting those levels faster makes the game alittle more enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterknowitall Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've got the same feeling. You can just spend your time getting 200 mill exp on one account instead of 2 times the same level 99 on 2 accounts in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to a lower level and getting those levels faster makes the game alittle more enjoyable. I understand that but when you come back to your main account which you would eventually do, wouldn't that feel like such a big waste of time? Also growing levels really fast wouldn't improve your mood of growing high levels. If anything it would make it so much worse...

Atom Smash40 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 actually i have a secondary account. i train it opposite of what i do on my main. on my main im kind of a skiller. only my secondary im a range/mage tank. i see secondary accounts as ways to play the game in a different perspective than that of ur main without "ruining" the setup of your main. but secondary accounts that mimic ur main are just pointless. if ur main is mainly full out combat (meaning like 80+ all combat stats and like 70+ prayer), and ur secondary is like the same thing but with lower levels but in the same areas, then thats pointless. ~ 3,072nd to 99 Mining on August 30th, 2009 ~~ 112,084th to 99 Magic on April 16th, 2011 ~~ 131,681st to 99 Crafting on March 29, 2019 ~~ 178,385th to 99 Prayer on April 2, 2019 ~~ 234,921st to 99 Defence on May 9, 2019 ~~ 173,480th to 99 Herblore on June 21, 2019 ~~ 155,160th to 99 Smithing on July 16, 2019 ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario_sunny Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Most people who make brand new accounts like that today are just looking for a different playing style. When you are high level, there are so many things to do daily: check your GE offers, hunt penguins, kill bork, buy battlestaves, check your miscellania kingdom, etc. Every time you go out to fight something too, it takes minutes to find all the best gear to maximize your effency. When you fight bosses, you have to get out all the right gear, maybe buy some supplies from the GE, borrow some potions from a friend, etc. Then you may have some goals too, perhaps a 99. Then you have to work on getting your 99. There is so many things to do sometimes players just get too stressed, or maybe too bored of the same old things. They remember the good old days of being a new player. They remember the great sence of adventure and exploration; selling freshly smithed bronze helmets to the varrock general store, fishing shrimp in Al Kharid, getting their first PK. They remember that there was no pressure, no daily activities, you just did what you wanted. Some players want to relive this and thus create new accounts in order to replicate what they felt when they first started playing runescape. By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( .

darkjab Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I make new accounts just to refresh myself. Sometimes I get extremely bored because some things are extremely expensive for me to buy or take ages to level. A noob account helps to chill me out, it get's me enjoying the game again and helps to refocus me so that I can return to my main with a better mindset. If I just simply quit or had a temporary break I would end up finding it hard to regain the motivation and mentality to continue. I also like the challenge of trying to mine iron with a level 3 rat out to kill me (and various other problems that arise from raising skills at a low combat), and also redoing quests and getting to see them in the new graphics or to even try out things in skills that I missed out before and was simply too high of a level to have the opportunity to truly enjoy it - like making snakeskin armour, just as an example.

D Jay99 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Meh, sometimes I really have the urge to start all over. No idea why, probably because levelling will be so much easier. But then I think of all the quests I've already done, the things I can't do on a new account and the time I've already put into my main and decide not to start a new account. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've started a few new accounts because I like the feeling of getting super fast levels. It's also a much different experience since you know all the best training spots and the best way to do things. A bunch of quick levels on a newb motivates me to get levels on my main. :) Link to Forum Games signature.[hide=TIFer Quotes]This lack of discussion value..disturbs me.English is the only language on this forum.If you use another language, you need to include a traductionbgok5jn dsgtalgOh wow, I hate everything -.-Death kinda scares me.your obsession with phallic objects shows quite clearly in your artworks.Ffs, someone put this in their sig.[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to a lower level and getting those levels faster makes the game alittle more enjoyable. I agree. My secondary account used to be a PKing account only, but when PKing got taken out, I started to raise its skills, and was happy with the feeling when I get a level faster. And now, I can use it in PvP too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammertime Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I have a secondary account with very similar stats to my main. my reason, unlike everyone else, was that my main was banned for over 2 years in total, my secondary was what i played during those times. I will say that i have many accounts from 20-65 cb, most are pures that never got finished, most with 1 defense and ~45 strength. They have never been members.

Fromfirst2Last1987 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 heres the answer: because they play the way you want to play. who are you to say someone should play how you do. who are you to say you should only train your main. they arent hurting you making multis so you should mind your own business and gtfo Dragon Drops: 5 medium helmet, 3 left shield halfObby: Maul 1, Cape 1, Shield 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
