meesa Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 :cry: I was selling some runes I had made in world 2 in varrock. As usual, I was wearing my full rune and had all my money with me incase I saw an awesome deal. Lag... Lag... *connection lost attempting to re-establish* My ISP went down for 5 hours or so, so no internet stuff would work. I didnt think much of it. I log on a few hours later, and I'm standing in lumby with my rune plate, hally, and kite. I lost 500k, 450k worth of runes, almost full rune, and a few misc rune items that I was selling from fire giant drops. I have only been playing 2 months or so after taking a year long break. I payed for p2p... but I just dont think with my sad stats I could make that much cash again. To me 1mil is a load of money. I'm giving the contents of my measly bank to my friend next time he comes online. Farewell to all. :( Maybe I'll hang around the forums for a bit...

Lowgravity Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 This stuff happens all the time, I died when I was watching tv and lost atleast 2m of stuff, just pick up and start again, or better yet just quit Runescape for good, it's a terrible game :P . Sorry for your loss, but remember it's only a game. Lowgravity, I want to be just like you. But...I never will be as 1337 as you. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satenza Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Yah, i got scammed for 3million. Not too bad but it annoyed me greatly. Just start again. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tefda Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 y dont u just start again. thats not much of a loss.i was hacked alot. now i have a whip =) To some of us that's a major loss. You can always continue your character. If you were able to gather up items of that worth than you can do it again. I'm sure you'll come back and you'll realize that you can still play. So long as the game is still fun for you than you can play. Just ask the OoC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiddel Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I lost 500k, 450k worth of runes, almost full rune, and a few misc rune items that I was selling from fire giant drops. are you gonna be another one of the weak ones that quits after losing some minor ammount of items and weapons? Or are you going to keep playing so you can look back and say, "eh, it was only about a mil"? go cut some trees and make some natures or something. Dont quit just because you hit a bumb.

B0nec0lecter Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Your best choice is to go with the urge and quit right now. RS is a time-consuming game, and you could be using your time much more wisely. I'm sure RS will draw you back to it again anyway. =B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost20123 Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Carry on, if not for you, then for your friend. I had a good friend of mine quit not so long ago because of family problems. He sold his stuff to buy me a whip as a leaving gift. I would happily trade that whip to see him online again. Runescape can be a lonely place when a friend you know you can trust implicitly leaves. Trust me, he will miss all the chats and stuff :cry: <----- First 99 - 20/02/10, also Vhellcats Birthday!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshwacka Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 It isn't really alot of money. The only reason why I think you think its alot of money is because you're new to p2p. Try some p2p money-makers like nature-crafting or cutting yew trees. 99 Crafting Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To tell you the honest truth that is downright pathetic. I was scammed for 4 million in a bothched santa trade (which was huge for me at the time) and was extremely annoyed. Though I didn't quit I know as p2p there are so many ways to get the money back without needing good stats. You could for instance pick snape grass behind the crafting guild for 500gp per grass. Or you could run nats for a company (lvl 91+ Rc company) and get 40 nats for 25 ess (run through the abbysall>>trust me its quite safer than you think it would be--Here is a good guide on it (couldn't find one on tip.it)http://runehq.com/RHQSpecialReportsView.php?id=00541. I did it and ran 10k nats in a week and got most of my money back. Just because misfourtune strikes you there is no need to quit. There is always ways to get your money back and to get your million back would only take you a few days doing the ways I told you. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
