Anyone else been playing runescape for a long time? (5+ year


Recommended Posts

I've never really considered myself as such an old player, but I just checked when my recovery questions were last changed and it's the third of February 2002, and I changed them then because a friend knew my password.

 

 

 

God, I am way more old school then I thought I was.

 

 

 

I cannot remember my original characters name though, not for the life of me.

 

I think I started this one about halfway through 2001.

 

 

 

I started playing in march 2002, but it also sais my recovery question date last changed is februari 2002. Actually I only set my recovery questions in 2003.

 

 

 

It's a bug.

Runescape: Lodev (Combat level been fixed at 101 for years now, Total level 1500+, playing since march 2002)

Arenascape: Lode (Level 240+ Warlock)

I started @ June 2002, at that time having a rune long was already very good.

 

 

 

I remember saving up 10 gp by 10gp for my first rune long, oh dear it was 20k-25k at the time, took me ages.

 

 

 

Black armour at that time looked cool too, made you look like a black knight walking around :wink:

 

 

 

I forgot mostly about RSC now, just the few most happy memories such as when I bought my first rune long.

omg i loved classic back in january 2001

 

 

 

i got my first 1k coins from ranging goblins, and it got me to lvl 10 range (sad i still know this) bluerose13x was the best smithing \ miner in the game even before banks could store items, "angry nocc" i think that was his name... well he was the first to 99 str. zongui was the first to maxed combat. sandytrain was one of the best pkers in the game, "robin hood" was one of the first well know cheaters, he would have a catch program for pking. so if u saw him... u were dead... before wildy came out pking happened everywere, i bought my first phat for 5k on xmas when they dropped. and when i started there was only 2 servers, holding 1500 people i think it was... later they got 3 servers and everyone of them was full...

i remember when the christmas crackers were dropped (i started in July of 2001), and i cracked 14 of them with a person named Hitman X i believe. Anyways i got 4 blues, 3 reds, 1 white, 2 green, 2 yellow , and 2 black (which were turned to pink, then purple). Lol, then i sold them 3 weeks later for around 3-5k each..I WAS FRIGGIN' RICH!!! I have pics of them somewhere (my first file from 2001 was killermate...horrible stats).. too bad i only made 70k instead of 1.5 bil lol....live and learn

faithful player since october 2001!!!!!!!!!

honestly i wish i could go back in time 5 years ago when rs was FUN. Not only has the content gone down, the comunity is so freaking huge it's absurd. Plus, level 99 isn't even hard to get anymore. lets be honest here, you can buy basicly any 99 stat and have it within a reasonable time. I play to be the best, but what good is it when there's 1000 other characters just like you. Maybe it's just me, but I like to be better than everyone else. Thats why I bought one of the first whips for 2 yellows and 6 mil. Because I liked the fact I was one of the few people with a whip... at level 90. And thats why im making a pure right now, just so I can be better than everyone else my level.

I started in oct/nov 2001. Found the game on arcadepod at my friends house.

 

 

 

Back then i enjoyed rs loads, i knew alot of the people ingame and there wasn't a day that i would be in fally south bank and i didn't see someone i knew. Now rs as a community that is so huge its very rare you see someone you have met before. I miss the days of rsc, oh well.... lol.

I started around december 2001. I played with a few rl friends there were 5 of us, two of them were pretty good back in the day, nuc134r and moonfruit, anyone remember them? Moonfruit pked a r2h when they were worth about 3 mill which was a lot back then.

Sorry all for the shameless bump but I wanted to say hi to AU Cool and Meili! Thanks for remembering Jenstarr and I, we're still very happily married (3 years now!) and have been firmly into WoW since we managed to get into the US closed beta last year. We started a guild when the EU retail opened up called Ab Aeterno and it's still going strong :-D

 

 

 

Anyways, good to see you all again. Hi to those who remember us! Hope things are going well for you all back in RS. Still a fantastic game in it's own right, and I'm happy to see it still going strong!

 

 

 

Oh so cool that you are still happily married. :3> A true RS love story!

Been around since April 6th 2001 ... for you scholars, that was the day Asgarnia was released.

 

 

 

A friend of mine showed me the game a few weeks beforehand, and I initially thought it looked quite goofy. Kinda forgot about it for a while, then went back to the website on 4/6 and saw the Asgarnia update news, thought "this is neat!" and joined. The rest is history.

 

 

 

Wow, I remember so much about the past. Good magic and evil magic (before the huge mage/prayer update, I believe late April 2001?), where the highest spell was Fear, at I believe level 13. Fear was awesome. For those who don't know, Fear, when cast on a monster, made the monster vanish. No questions asked.

 

 

 

I remember tailoring and thieving (yes, thieving...BK fortress quest gave exp for it back in the day) on the stat list.

 

 

 

There's a lot more as well...Today I saw the picture of Everdred getting 99 woodcutting for the first time in about two years (this was June/July '01) which has me screaming my face off in it. The amount of people PM'ing me over the years asking if I had 99 woodcutting is at least in the thousands. Good times...
