1roddad1 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day, we didn't have any fancy-schmancy whips or slayer or fishing. We had good old-fashioned woodcutting, and lots of it! There we burning logs, far-as the eye can see, with no such things as "noobs", but mere fellows looking to see how much shrimp he could cook and not burn in one go! Now tell me, young whippersnappers, what can YOU recollect from your old days? (Format=Back in my day,----------) There are three sides to any argument: your side, my side and the right side.

Marvel Titan Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 What do i remember.......White party hats being traded for a dragon chain, whips being 30mish and stable at 10m for ages, When guthans was the best gear for slayers. Oh and i laugh at anyone who moans because its hard to make money, try making money back in 03-04.

Kaphias Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 No cook-x. Was introduced about about a week after I started playing. Most memorable for me was the week or so after the camo set was introduced when it was tradeable. I was lucky enough to get a hat, I sold it for ~180k and bought my first rune set.

D. V. Devnull Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day, you could always earn profit for putting time and effort in... Combining items to make stuff always gave the ability to gain lots of gp... :^_^: Back in my day, you could always meet someone's needs and gain gp wherever you went... The trade limits and Grand Exchange have ruined this. <_< Back in my day, the middle mouse button actually worked in RuneScape as a 2nd left button, and it was extremely nice to have. If anyone here wants it back, come support at both this TIF Thread and this RSOF thread in order to get the point across to Jagex about this nifty little feature the RuneScape Applet used to have. :geek: There's more, but I can't think of it right now. :mellow: ~D.

Jehosaphat Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day, I didn't have to see these annoying "back in my day" threads every 2 weeks or so.

Kalafai Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day, we didn't have fancy shmancy updates. We had to play the same old content, and the same old bugs, then when we couldn't stand it anymore, we walked five miles in the sun, downhill, both ways, to buy a "new" game at the smelly ol' flea mart.

Infi Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day we didn't have people bragging about how long they played. Exactly. Here I am wondering why people enjoy telling how long they've played for, when most likely they haven't even been playing that long >_> 99 Hits, Attack, Strength, Defence, Mage, Summoning, Slayer, Ranged, 96/99 Prayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmentail Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Jagex dropped tradable holiday items. About as far back as I go, although I don't care for RSC. The gameplay is stunted beyond belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldenjkered Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my day, I used to mine iron and coal, smelt them into bars, make them into kitesheild, armour and weapons, and then tried to sell them in varrock bank to make money.

Saunamajuri Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Back in my days scammers sold charcoals for millions. Also, dragons looked like cows, and demons like goats. "An Amateur practices until he can get it right. A Professional practices until he can't get it wrong." Quests just keep bringing me back to this game.
