Making friend with a motive

Featured Replies

Many low lvl just love to make friend with higher lvl and mods.

 

 

 

Is this form of friendship covered with a 'motive' behind it ?

I constantly get low levels coming up to me, talking for a good 2 or 3 minutes and saying "friends list plz?" or something to that effect. 99% of the time I say no and they walk of. So, the short answer to your question is YES... or perhaps they just want to brag to their friends... "I have a 126 friend!! haha."

im friends with a mod, but its not because hes a mod, its because hes really nice and doesnt swear or anything, he's also funny and we have alot in common. but new people who come up to me (90 combat) mostly just want Fr33 st0of

I'm sure there's some motive behind it. I was in a bank for awhile, then took out my blue phat and wore it, and after the initial swarm of people asking questions subsided, I had two people wanting to be my friends.

 

 

 

Each situation has different motives, but I'm sure in a lot of cases there is a motive. In that case they just assumed from having the hats I have that I'm an experienced player, so they probably would want to ask me a lot of questions.

 

 

 

In the case of a player mod they might want him/her as a friend because they seem to stand out with the crown as being 'above' regular players to them, and want to talk more with them. Just my guesses.

i think its quiet simple, they just want free stuff, but there the rare cases were they just want a friend and nothing more

yup. it has a motive. around 9 times a day i get pm'd from people who have been to my house and decided to add me to their freinds list for the SOLE purpoise of demanding i go to my house on demand so they can use my portals >_

another reason is so they can brag about having a high level on their list either to a friend in real life who also plays, a friend on rs, or to some random person who doesn't really care-they use it in an argument, as if it makes them better "i got a lvl 120 on my friends!!!"

Sig by me....

I don't mind, but if they ask me for item more then once... there off my list.

People do that so they can get free stuff. A lvl 39 did that to me the other day trading a lvl 125. He was like " You know him??!! Can I be your friend?!" Nope :notalk:

They want some phr33, of course. :uhh:

to this i would also like to add those who are rich. when i wear my p-hat whilst ranging, or the like, i get heaps of lower levels saying, "friends ronaldo" and things like that, i mean, its so obvious that all they want is fr33 st00fs as you say

Maybe some people aren't like this but I like being friends with everybody who's nice. I would ask people who are high levels simply as they stand out and catch ones eye.

i think they juz wanna ask for free stuffz..

 

had many "friends" who did this.. oh well.. i juz added them to my ignore list.. hehe

I have it the other way.

 

I am level 3, and people with full drag beg to me.

 

It's quite hilarious, really.

Wha.. What..? Where am I?

I never add someone if they just randomly come up to me and ask to be friends, only people who I've been talking to in the area awhile :P

I make friends with lots of lvl 100+ friends while standing in Edgeville. It starts with hanging out, then dancing.

 

 

 

But I do it just to make friends. I have the right personality to make friends online, heck, I think I have too many friends.

If a low level player want to be your friend, and yourself are a high leveled player, the low leveled player just want the high leveled players stuff in 95% of the cases.

Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak

i've been asked a lot of times, mostly by lower levels, to be friends with them and it's ok, no harm with being a friend to someone right? then we talk, i help him/her with quests, tell where to train and the prices of stuff so i thought "well i'll be..wow not a noob. there's still a newbie in rs." then after a few days he/she'll ask for money becos she needs to buy a black g. it's just so disappointing. in some instances, it gets a lil creepy when they start telling you that you're their idol :ohnoes:
