February 11, 200917 yr Runescape is obliviously a game that demands a lot of time. But how much time exactly? I recently asked Jagex about my total in game playing time (TIGPT) and I found out: 79 days 13hrs 29m for my lvl 121 main 1663 total lvl and started in '05. Its kinda shocking to see the a little under 3 months of my life has been spent on this game. But what can you expected from a game like Runescape? How I found out my TIGPT: I previously asked if this was possible to find out and got a lot of negative answers saying that they didn't give it out and stuff like that. viewtopic.php?f=12&t=782473 Soo I emailed Jagex pretending I was a concerned parented and they messaged my TIGPT to my account. Post yours!! [/bads]You get 750000gp from alching a Bandos Godsword. I know from experience.
February 11, 200917 yr Author no i dont That was the method I used. I thought it would be more likey to give the info to a parent. I just thought it would be interesting for people to see how long they have played. You dont have to do it if you dont want to........ [/bads]You get 750000gp from alching a Bandos Godsword. I know from experience.
February 11, 200917 yr well I'm too lazy to do that assuming an average skill is 50k xp/hour though I'd have played about 3600 hours or 150 days OH GOD :ohnoes:
February 11, 200917 yr I really don't even think I want to know...because it'd be too high. Plus I'm not goin to lie and say I'm a parent just to find out something I have no intention of knowing 3,200 to 99 FishingAchieved August 25, 2007
February 11, 200917 yr A clever way to get that information. I might try it. I assume mine is around 50 days or something. I'll post back later if I get my total time. :P 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 :( .
February 11, 200917 yr If they start getting tons of random emails from concerned "parents" it's probably going to cause some raised eyebrows, wouldn't you say? These guys aren't as stupid as we may love to think. I'm pretty sure at least some Jagex staff roam around these forums and see what we all say about stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if someone from over there sees this, or gets redirected to it from somebody. :wall: Are you winning The Game?
February 11, 200917 yr How exactly did you get that info? Did you just ask a mod to get it for you? I thought they had some arbitrary policy against it. Anyway, that's quite a while. No bother - consider that the time would have been spent doing some kind of distraction, and as long as you enjoyed it, no parent can say anything.

Read before you post...he email jagex saying he was a concerned parent so he could see how long his "son" has played for. I'm guessing but I've probably played more than you OP, but I'm too lazy to find out 3,200 to 99 FishingAchieved August 25, 2007
February 11, 200917 yr ITT: People try this and Jagex gets flooded with playing-time requests The only reason I posted a 'negative' response was because I asked about a year ago, and the J-mod gave me a clear, concise "no".
February 11, 200917 yr Yeah, just wait 'til Jagex realizes, "Hey, how come we're getting a flood of concerned parents who want to know their child's TIGPT?" /sarcasm, but I sure would like to know. Hopefully it'll become an accessible Account Management feature in the future. :? ^ Blog.

They're allowed to give that kind of data out to parents, but not to the players themselves? How silly.

February 11, 200917 yr I'm a legal adult, I wonder if I can query the information for myself. I mean, I shouldn't need my mother to do it for me? :oops: "Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better.

February 11, 200917 yr I would be far to scared to ask, as I'm sure ive clocked well over 200 hours playing this game =(. O.O
February 11, 200917 yr This would be an interesting bit of information to have. It would be nice if Jagex would include it in the control panel or something. Alot of other games do that like Warcraft and FFXI. I know my brother is nearing 300 DAYS! of play time on FFxi. isn't that scary?
February 11, 200917 yr Where did you send that question to Jagex? what did you use you contact them? Probably [email protected].
February 11, 200917 yr I have around 50 days if i had an average of 30xp/hr. But that's training skills. In reality i would have over four times that, lol.
February 11, 200917 yr Soo I emailed Jagex pretending I was a concerned parented and they messaged my TIGPT to my account. This is why customer service contacts were removed in the first place, because of people who abused them. Just sayin' :-w
February 11, 200917 yr Don't even wanne know-.-, I'm curious though as to why jagex wont release that info, and even more curious as to why they will give it to parents. What can I say? I'm a rebel, like Ché Guevara. What the hell is Ash doing while Team Rocket says their rhyme?
February 11, 200917 yr over 200m total xp @ 50k p hr, say : 4000 hrs or 166 days. Ye sure. Try about 300 days Lol. I know it's too much so i dont wanna know tbh :|
February 11, 200917 yr Interesting way to get information for sure. I personally would like to know how long I have played. I wonder why Jagex won't release the information. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
February 11, 200917 yr I'm a legal adult, I wonder if I can query the information for myself. I mean, I shouldn't need my mother to do it for me? :oops: That doesn't mean anything, Since you could had been playing before being a legal adult, and maybe they wouldn't believe you, it wouldn't be as effective as pretending be the one father paying his son's membership :thumbsup: Veteran Cape Owner (10 year)
February 11, 200917 yr Why they won't release it? How about the massive amount of quitting people who realise how much time they've spent on a game?
February 11, 200917 yr Apparently they won't reveal your ingame time anymore. Dear _____, Thank you for your email regarding your sons account. Im sorry to say that we are currently unable to provide you with information, regarding an accounts in-game time. Aw. :wall: One-Clicking the Summer Garden[AOW]
