Haha, ily Jebrim <3

[Freakyhair]

I got respect for SUOMI in RS.

 

But seriously guys if you take a look at what it must be doing to their lives, it's pretty scary. I saw a post a few 10s of pages back from paperbag, ended up saying about suicide. Some people were saying 'nice one' and stuff like that. Guys its prety dodgy really. You know that RuneScape like that is a massive form of escapism that eventually screws people over..

 

if anyones got time you should watch this i think its fairly good representation, in anime form :thumbup:

 

 

i cant actually find a good example to be honest.. but guys, how can you not think playing 16hours a day isn't harmful?? you can't work, you can't really cook yourself proper meals, you can't study, go to school, do anything, have friends.. i dunno it just seems crazy to me. i have hiccups of playing 10hrs for 2 days or so, and i feel like crap, i don't get anything done and then i realise it's just a dumb ass game. im probally gunna give my account away tbh. i wanted to boss hunt but apparently you have to grind for 200+hours which is just uber sad in my books. think what you could do.

 

Apparently it takes around 20,000 hours to get 200m in everything, and that's a pretty liberal estimate. It might well be in the 30,000 range. There's a book they told us about at our old school about how it takes 10k hours to master something. the beatles apparently only played together 10k hours, and well.. yeah.. 10,000 hours spent on a stupid video gamew is just heartbreaking for me to see. and i know a lot of these players are depressed, do you think playing more RS will help?? what do you think is going to happpen when these players eventually realise how meaningless 200m in all skills really is. Runescape is their life..

 

I dunno, you can't deny that..

I agree, but the people here are one-minded. "If they think it's fun they should do it 16 hrs."

 

NO.

 

Doing what you Enjoy isnt something you should do for 70% of the day, even. Hell, if I was to drink and party fior 16 straight hours daily..lololol

How is playing runescape any different from playing music, they did because they enjoyed it. I bet they practiced long hours being "unhealthy". Most things that take that long to Master are "pointless" but, people do it as it is there passion, and imo it doesn't matter what that passion is, unless it involves hurting someone else.

 

Anyway, S U O M I, dw about it, 1 supporter is worth 1000 haters, so post it :) And i know myself, and many others would really enjoy it :)

 

And Paperbag, hope your okay now.

Because playing music is real, not a game. It's also considered a job, it earns you keep and money and serves society.

 

Playing RuneScape constatnly does none of that. It's also not pysical. And the Beatles wouldn't have played 16hours per day because it's impossible to have what is considered a normal life putting that much time into something.

 

Unless you guys wanna live with your mums forever. I guess most of you who are saying this are still at school?? well I finished school 2 years ago, have you ever done your own washing? Cooked your own meals, cleaned your house? sureley if you;ve done these things you realise how much time it takes up. And then earning the money to live..

 

Look if you can;t see what's wrong with playing 16hours a day then.. [cabbage] you needs to go to a psychiatrist. Imagine what you're parents think, you're sitting in front of a screen for 16hours a day. What about getting a wife, and a family? How would you suppport that.

 

Same for parents who play on RS - incredibly irresponsible..

 

also yeah, I'd reckon that p[laying 16hours a day is harming 2 people - your parents. At least, or your friends.

 

Say my passion is doing heroin, it's not hurting anyone and i only do it 16hours a day. everyday.

 

Effectively yeah it's the same, it's obviously not. but your rendering yourself useless for 16hours.

 

You can't survive in life by being good at a game. There's a massive difference between real life and computers.

[Jebrim]

Sitting in front of your computer all day in the office vs sitting in front of your computer all day playing a game. One activity you are forced to do and probably do not like. The other activity is doing something that you enjoy. How the [bleep] can you say the former is healthier/better than the latter? Simply because one gives rl gp and the other doesn't?

And stop judging other people.

Err yeah excactly?

 

It also help makes the world turn round, real social interaction aswell. I don't get how you guys can't understand that. Everyone should work.

 

Plus I know that a lot of people don't enjoy grinding, they enjoy the reward.

 

 

Also to post above ^^^

 

I think it's a good thing to do if it makes people play slightly less RS. I personally think they should put a limit of 24 hours a week.

What about the mentally disabled, the physically disabled?

 

Are they going to be expected to work, even if they want to, when they don't have the ability?

 

Also, If you don't enjoy grinding, this is the wrong game for you.

Pluckey, you didn't answer my earlier question about what happened to the sexy ass pokemon that used to be in your sig.

*O I didn't see that post.

 

 

EDIT: Putting that sexy thing back in on Jebrim request.

 

 

 

OT: What agility course is better at 90+?

 

Gnome or Barbarian?

[Emre]

Jeb, you think every job needs you to sit in front of a computer for 8-9 hrs a day? There are better jobs then office jobs, you know.. ;)

[Danqazmlp]

It has been said numerous times that this thread is NOT here to discuss healthy/unhealthy playing habbits or your opinions on the habbits of others. The discussion does not belong here and will be removed.

 

EDIT: Maybe I need to make this more visible? Discussing the personal lives of the players involved in this thread is not to be discussed here.

@ Pluckey

 

I usually update the top 15 on saturdays. Look for it tomorrow late afternoon... depending on your time zone (late evening if you're in Europe).

 

Btw, can someone confirm Allar is just on a holiday? He hasn't gained any XP since monday or tuesday.

Barb. Using Agility potions or scrolls with an Abyssal lurker is also best, as you can completely remove your chance of failing obstacles. You will stop failing the beam at level 92 and the log at level 93, so keep yourself boosted above those amounts in those areas.

He is.

[Thingamajig]

I hope that's the case with Allar. It'd be sad if he quit, especially since he is such a contender.

[Thai_tong]

Well I assumed it takes 1 hour, 90secs a floor, idk if this is too fast, it shouldn't be for 5:1 + doorstand/cosmics.

 

@ 60 prestige you probably get like, 500 xp a floor avg? So maybe 25k, again i'm not experience enough with DG, whether ppl @ 120, would C1 1-29 or 1-39 or even 1-35.

OK just to show the xp/hr fishing in dungs needs to be for it to be better than barb cutting fish with urns

Turns out to be 42k/hr this is if you only fish when you would normally be rushing. If you do C2 small instead of C6 large then fishing has to be 111k/hr in dungeons is the unreasonable?

Also 34k/hr if you do barb + dropping+ urns

Note that this excludes the xp gotten from activities in the dungeon if you weren't fishing

 

proof

[hide]If you fishing while your team slows down your xp rate 5k from 25 to 20 (27.5 to 22 with tokens) then 1 hour of fishing in dungeons getting F fishing xp iis worth

22/27.5+ F/100 hours

 

Barb fishing for 1 hour you get 100k fish, 7.6k agility and strength and 12.7k coooking that is worth

100/100 + 7.6/72+ 7.6/80+ 12.7/700= 1.22 hours skilling

 

If dungeoneering fishing is better then

22/27.5 + F/100 > 1.22

F > 42k

 

 

AND for regular barb dropping

without urns 60k/hrm with urns 72k/hr

 

same as before dung is worth

22/27.5+ F/100 hours

 

fishing is worth

72/72+ 5.5/72+ 5.5/80= 1.145 hours

 

22/27.5+ F/100 > 1.345

F> 34k

I know this has been warned against, but I really don't care.

 

You MAY be 100% right about these people, but that doesn't matter. You or nobody else has the right to tell someone how to lead their lives. Playing 16 hours a day may seem sad to you, but others probably do enjoy it. I really don't see why it's any of your problem to be honest, If i were you, I would just get on with leading your own life instead of telling others what is wrong/right with theirs.

 

I took the bait.../rant.

[ldailey06]

Haters gonna hate

 

Trolls gonna troll

 

jealous noobs like FreakyHair gonna be jealous...

 

Am I the only one who appreciates the irony of a 250 word post about how runescape is a waste of time?

[Gravy]

actually i'm certain he's far from jealous.

[K4ylan]

I hope that's the case with Allar. It'd be sad if he quit, especially since he is such a contender.

 

Sooo many contenders who were thought to be the one's to make it have quit.

[Freakyhair]

I know I'm not meant to discuss this, and this'll be the final thing I write.

 

But I wrote a thing a few pages back about why talking about the real life implications should be a part of the discussion of somebody attaining 200m in all skills but whatever.

 

I'm genuinely not trying to troll, it's just sad to see posts like some peoples who obviously arn't happy with their lives possibly because of the ammount of RuneScape they play. I can't sit back and see people talking about suicide and others egging them on to get zs much exp as is humanly possible.

 

But whatever, maybe I should make a topic for this?

 

And the guy above me is right, I'm far from jealous.

 

But yeah SUOMI is gunna get it first. I swear agility and mining exp are almost 2 of the slowest per hour? Oh and fishing! At some point Allar and the others with almost all buyables and combats are gunna stall and SUOMIs gunna zoom :shades:

[Vex]

Either go and study psychology or drop the subject.

 

All i can say is, game addiction is going to be big business in the years to come.

 

Everyone needs purpose in their life, and if you currently don't have a purpose, MMO's provide that temporarily.
