How many RuneScape originals from 2001 are still here?

Featured Replies

After reading the Dwarf Invasion post, and seeing that gunar and stompfest (among a few other) where posting there... I just had to make this post.

 

Kind of curious as to how many of the original players are actually still around tip.it and/or RuneScape itself. Most pop in for a bit, then disappear for a while.

    Oct 2001. The only reason I even remember the month is soon after I started there was free food everywhere (pumpkins) I ate so many of them....

  • No, it doesn't.   Feb 2001 - sup.

Well you started in the later days of RS Classic, so I will say you're a classic player. Not an original though...

Just was mainly curious. I have seen gunar, stompfest, Fook-A-Ji, WeatherMatt, and a few various people have either replied, and/or atleast appeared in Tip.It's userlist in the last Day or two. As such, the idea for this post was born...

 

I seem to remember something about the name Fudgy99 and a rune kite shield I believe. Didn't you die with one back when very few had them?

Hia there fomr a 2001'er

I use a different User Name for Forums and such, for obvious reasons. I began playing in April 2001. Came over to Runescape from a game called Archmage when it began falling apart....Archmage was one of the best text-based games on the internet at that time. Anywho, I seldom use forums, and am looking forward to getting a Classic Cape when they came out (if Jagex keeps to their word).

 

BTW, I can still be found playing RSC on a regular basis on my "true" account.

 

Howdy.

Highly possible.

I'm in the logs of MrAndrew on the IRC logs that used to be on the Gower Archive if they're still around anywhere....

Yes I know you used to come on IRC, I remember that. Just for some reason, I want to say you lost either a rune kite or square. Go figure.

 

The Gower Archive I believe went offline, its maintainer Ren ("Me" on RS) was running one of the MechScape fan sites last I had heard. I do have some of my old chat logs though, however I believe many are gone. I will have to check though.

oct '01. play when i can, break when i cant. always on for holiday events though, just because

I registered in '07, so I don't even come close to qualifying.

 

However, in real life I know the players Adric Tg (account #786) and Waldo (#1476). They don't play anymore, though I've been trying to convince them to give it another shot with the return of the wildy. I've never had much interest in PKing, but that's what Waldo was mainly interested in.

Ill come out of the wood work I guess. Late Jan 2001 before.... everything came out lol

 

Kind of weird to look back and know you have been playing an rpg, for over half your life.

 

Yeah, ill go cry in a corner.

Original 2001'er reporting here too. This account I started in the fall of 2001, the original (long abandoned) one in February.

I started playing around Feb or Mar 2001, i still remember there are no bank at one point......

Grrr hate those time,

By the time dragon slayer quest came out, i own the dragon..lolz...

Ya miss those old time, i always played around alchemon, sandytrain, krest, Jb, bluerose13x, posion ivy, pugxsi, kagi. All those old timer.

I started playing in january 2005 just before slayer came out (I have got a rubber chicken on essiw), a half year later classic became closed for new accounts (I couldn't play it because it didn't let me on my mac).

late '01 or early '02 for me. I don't really remember that well. I should have continued to play on my first account. Would probably be maxed or close :unsure: by now.

My current RS account is from 2004, that's when I started playing for real. But I played RS for about 2 weeks together with some friends in the summer of 2001 (forget which month, probably July).

 

I count myself as an '05'er since I didn't really play RS thoroughly in 2001 and I started this account in December '04 and played seriously after Easter 2005.

[insert birds flying in a circle here]

Yes, that sig was annoying.
