aj926 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Yeah, I don't know why, but runescape is losing its appeal more and more as the days go by. Maybe it's because MySpace is a tad more fun (/penguinpeopleunited, if you're interested), maybe it's because the only goal I have is a fire cape, maybe it's because I can't find any good way of making money... I don't know why, but pounding on the kq with my 2 greatest friends seems so old now, so boring. I'm pretty sure its the fact that I've conquered anything that has been set before me to do.... and now I just want to sorta lay back and leave my character be. I'm so scared of quitting, I don't know if I'll come back... Look at my post count, I've invested waaay too much time into these forums to simply quit runescape. And there are fun times, like barrowing with ancients, cw, pc, sometimes kq... But even those things are starting to fade into something that's not fun for me. Please don't post on here saying "plomg quit k?" or "omg u shud fletch". I want honest to goodness discussions and suggestions on how I can improve the "fun factor" of runescape. I really don't want to quit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy_Kak Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Well i was sorta losing interest in runescape like 2 weeks ago, i just started doing different things that i hadn't really done, i did a little bit of farming (that didn't really help), then i tried theiving, i used knights and pyramid plunder and now im 83 theiving =]. Now im collecting herbs from druids under yanille. Just try out all the neglected parts of runescape, maybe youll find something that you like? ps i added you on myspace =] Jimmy Kak currently smithing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
folmer_veeman Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 its kinda fun to pk or farm, you could try raising a skill to 99 or staking. but if you find none of these cool, i suppose you could give all your stuff to me :twisted: lol jk do everything you want, as long as you are happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharane Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 You don't really have to quit the game entirely you know. There are other factors of life which are fun. :P "300 programmers make their futile but glorious last stand against 1000000 angry players in The battle of Misthalin. They fight for honor, glory and new content sacrificing themselves so that their game may live on. This is Madness! This Is JAGEEEX!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk8erfreak Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Just take a break from the game. I have lost interest many times but after quitting for a few months I was able to regain interest with all the updates. There is no point in playing a game if you are just going to be bored while playing it :P . 136 Combat, 2290+ Skill Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj926 Posted October 10, 2006 Author Share Posted October 10, 2006 You don't really have to quit the game entirely you know. There are other factors of life which are fun. :P Believe me, I know. I have so many more friends then I did in MS and early HS. But I live a loooong ways from school. My best friend lives in 2 homes (divorces anti-ftw) and my other friends were complete... erg in middleschool. So until I get a car Can't really do anything about it = ( ps i added you on myspace =] Jimmy Kak ^_^ To sk8r... I'm not completely bored of RS yet.

Fat_Slug Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 i go through fazes where i hate rs, and other games seem more fun. i just cancel ptp, and go play what i fancy. just take a break, and keep your junk. the appeal may come back to you Runescape nick : Fat_SlugOwner of Ears, Scythe and a 10 year veteran cape :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 alot of these threads keep comming up, and they generally relate to lack of high lvl updates. and i am amazed at all the mid-high lvls bored to tears of this great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_kenny69 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 When I get bored of RS (happening alot lately), I look around on the events forum in ROF and find a nice house party to go to, or just play castle wars or fight pits on world 6. If your still bored, don't renew your membership and just play f2p for a while, or go do something else with yourself (real life has better graphics and sound I hear :wink: ).

xXru1n3dXx Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I've been feeling like this for like 2 years. It seems to go away, but comes back again. Lately it hasn't gone away, and I barely play at all now. I just see if anyone is on to pk, if there isn't i'm off again. CS:S at the moment appeals more to me. Maybe I just need a break. Meh, good luck in whatever you do. RS Stats | BF2 Stats | ARSCV | LastFM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candymann16 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 i was feeling like this for a while, so i just looked around the archive of wisdom to find something else to do, found killing metal drags to be ok, then i died loseing about 1.5-2mil worth of stuff, nedded to make the money back and started to KQ basically just look for something different to do, kill chompies, build the shade temple, pick a skill and stick with it, do any quests you have not done yet, set a goal for yourself, just keep your RS life varied and you wont get bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubegenius Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Quit the game...Life becomes so much more interesting after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzalord1 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Quit the game...Life becomes so much more interesting after that. Not nessecarily. I found myself bored to the teeth in the two months after i got account scammed. Then i came back, and made it all back, pretty much did all the updates and such. All i can suggest is to find something else to do for a month or two, and come back for the updates, but wait until your membership runs out if you do have it.

tyrcian Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 you just need to find a new purpose. stay off rs and dont even come on here for two weeks. Then come back and find something new, catch up with the update or something. You'll find something to do dont worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragax100 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 gotta admit, that keeping it varied helps alot, im rarely doing the same thing on one day, also play other games, join a clan, or just spend a few days nto on, they all help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver24-7 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 That's the reason why I quit runescape :P If you really don't find it fun anymore just stop playing it until you feel like it again. There's plenty of other things to do in life so don't worry about leaving something you worked so hard on. Look at my blog to see how many hours I have spent on my accounts :P crazy.... Anyways good luck with whatever you decide to do. Silver I'm Finally 99 mage ^^ (and cooking...) :PSilver24-7 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamgod316 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I took one summer off because I was busy and I kinda got bored of RS. Sometime later I logged in and looked at all the new updates that occured when I was gone and it led me right back into the game. If you leave for a little while, let the new updates pile up and it will seem like a new game when you get back. - Affliction - 100 Combat - 9/15/06Merchant / Skiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pizzalord1 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Personally, i find myself getting bored with RuneScape because i want to get on with animation more, but lack the program at home due to College. #-o It happens to everyone at some point, take a break, wait for a few updates, and find something else to fill your time inbetween.

hellbellz Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Well I'd hate for you to leave if you do :( [eventually sometime you will, but like now would suck] You should try and go... :-k Play WoW!!! Oh.. that wouldn't make Runescape better.. but it sure is a damn good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenpowers Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 when ever I start getting bored I just waste my money on things... Like say buying tons of runes for acients in cws...
