Well, it seems you just need to think to yourself, whats more important.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Always remeber that rs is just a game, and even if you have fun doing it, you should do it if you have something better to do.

It's just a game, Just take a moment to think about it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rs is good game, But not worth of wasting your life on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My opinion ;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good luck!

Instead of saying, 'I shouldn't play runescape, I shouldn't play runescape', make up a plan. Say 'From 8-8:30 I'll play runescape today, then I'll go make out with my girlfriend' :D or something like that.

Yes, exactly... even if there's something else you "should" do... don't! Do RS! Mwuahahahahhaahahhaha.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Err... uh.... just try to schedule your RS time into time slots, then go do other stuff?

Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender. Makes for a good life.

well you've already taken step one of addiction problems...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you admitted you have a problem...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyways, enough with that crap :D

 

 

 

*** Remember, RS is just a game, it isn't really important now is it?

 

 

 

there's always, i repeat : ALWAYS something better to do then RS, so everytime you want to play rs, call your GF, call one of your friends, go outside, just try to spend your free time, and the other times that you play rs, while you should probably do your chores and homework, do something usefull, think about what you want to do in your life...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know how old you are, but if you are 16-. bring this up to your parents... or just be like me, go outside, and smoke pot... :P

^^Yeah, and im writing a book about it!^^

Bounty Hunter is nothing more than a lame ass excuse not to say there is no PKing.

I HATE JAGEX!

well, night, i was in exacyly the same place around 6 months ago, and ive got over it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well ill tell u how i was then, yr ago i was in high school doing my GCSEs, just got my target of 80m cash, and was at the top of my game, and didnt care about exams, just played rs all the time, i was staying up all night playing, sleeping all day, my gf dumped me coz i stopped going out (i dont blaime her) and my friends stopped calling me, becuase there was no point, i just played played played, stayed up all night, slept all day, my mum thot i was on drugs or somin for beeing so tired, i hardly ever saw my family even tho i live with them, it was BAD!!!

 

 

 

Any way, i was targetin my 100m now. it was getin so bad so i quit for couiple of weeks, to have a breack, friends startin phoning me again and my gf took me back, when i came back online, i found every thing has gone, all cash, drag armour masks and santas, i was GOING MAD!!! few days later i decided it was a good thing that happend, even tho i could have got ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã1k on ebay, but i decided it was for the best and atleast i was getin my life back. i quit for total of 5 months, and now i play only 1 hr a day, and keepin that controlled.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What u have to do mate is have a target , of some sort, say Fletching yews, say to ur self how many can i do an hr? say u can do 500, allright, then do say 1 hr of yews a day, and 1 hr of training, then come off! on weekends if ur not doing any thing u can play for longer, but u should really just go out with friends,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thats my advice, ill see u later, hope my advice helps

Playing RS is a life of its own. It can become a substitute for real life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If real life is in any way hard to confront, some people have a tendency to avoid it and dive into a substitute life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Playing RS is easy, real life can be hard. So once you are in RS, and go back to real life, it is an uphill struggle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My hint: whenever you feel you are sucked back into RS when you dont want it, look around you and notice objects in your surroundings (preferably objects not RS-related). Keep doing that until you snap out of your addiction.

Life on a computer game is perfect (unlike pking sometimes), so you

 

 

 

like to play in a easy life, that gives you no dangerous. But you got a real life, u need to enjoy it too. Go outside, go look for girls.

 

 

 

Go to a beach, drink a beer and play rs about 2 hours a day... =)

Does sitting on the couch my with laptop, playing RS, drinking a beer, and half-watching one of those bikini shows on the G4 channel count? How about if I open my window too? :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seriously though, I agree with the 2 hours per day thing. That's plenty. I have some tasks that I must complete every night before I'm allowed to play (must go for a run, make dinner, clean up, put any laundry in, etc).

When i realised i played rs for too long, the only thing i did was, used my last few days of membership fishing lobbys, at the end of it i had 1k of the devils, and then cooked them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By then my membership had ran out, so i took to nonmembers wildy everyday from then, until i used all my lobbys and spent all the money i made from pkin on more lobbys. after about 1 week all the food and money had gone, and i decided to go fishing in karamaja. i fished 24 lobbys and i was finaly completely bored, so i could at long last happily quit the 'dirty habbit' which was my view of it by then. nowadays i rarely play. simple as...good luck.

Don't quit all at once. Limit your time if you really want to quit your addiction. For example, if you play five hours, try playing four and a half hours a day for a week. Then bring it down a notch to four hours a week. Keep bringing it down in intervals until you think you have balanced out your life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If that doesn't help, then give up membership (if you have it) and just bore yourself to death by dong something very repetative and pointless and figure out that runescape is just a big waste of your time and it won't help you in the future in any way...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If that just happens to not work, you could always give away your account and password to a trustworthy person who you know in rl and tell him/her to change it to something you won't guess and remember it until some day far in the future and give it to you when you're out of your gaming stage. Then you can laugh at all the time you wasted with your silly games :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If that doesn't work either, then, as said before, head to you hardware store, buy a hammer, and... wait... you need that computer...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay, or just block runescape and everything related to runescape from your computer. That way, you will be reminded that runescape isn't the best choice to do whenever you go to play.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or you could give away everything you have. I read a thread about how some guy gave up his account to the kid who showed him rs. He said it was one of his best days. He had a much better social life after that and runescape wasn't life, but was simply a hobby to him after.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, I hope i helped. I myself am also trying to get out of the addiction. The first method is working for me :) Good luck in Real Life... (I should have quit when i got hacked... maybe if you got hacked, you would have a big depression and quite ;))

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember, if you want to quit and make alot of people happy, host a drop party and invite me. I could always use that extra cash :D
