What things confused you when you were a newb?

[SirHartlar]

Protection prayers and pk skulls were very confusing. :XD:

[12markkram34]

When I was a newb I tried making a sappire ring once I got the required crafting lvl. I made a gold ring with the only bar I had and tried using the sapphire on it (LOL). It didn't work of course and so I stood next to the furnace for 5 mins wondering why and looking like a newb.

A high leveled friend(level 28 i think, well, for me it was a high level) showed me Goblin Village, because I still trained at level 2 Goblins when I was level 15.

 

But when he left, I didn't know how to get back to good old Lumbridge. :(

 

I found it after some wandering though.

 

 

 

 

 

I once saw someone with a Halloween mask in Goblin Village. Only, I didn't know it was a mask.

 

So I asked how he became a monster like that. He said he did something wrong in a quest and got mutated...I actually believed that.

 

 

 

Later, at the end of the Demon Slayer quest, you've say that spell correct, right? I thought if you chose the wrong spell, you got mutated like that. I was pretty happy when I (accidently(I clicked the option at the bottom because I thought it said ''Click here to continue'' ))chose the right spell.

The map and the wilderness system. :?

[BloodArgon]

I thought your hitpoints was leveled when you got hit by a monster.

[VjuliusT]

I thought a "air/water/fire/earth staff" was the most powerful weapons in the game #-o

[Dizzle229]

i once thought that 1k meant 1 gp. i then put up 100 gp for full rune...

[Olbritishchap]

how people afforded rune plates. 80k!!?! how was i supposed to make that much!?

[Bo4345]

The skull curse thingy when you attack a player in the wild confused me when I was a nub

[Death_Hippy]

For one it took me 10 minutes to figure out how to open a door...2 minutes to realize I used to mouse not the arrow keys to move....and 4 days to figure out what "noob" meant.Before this game I never played a online game so it was new to me.

[Zangath]

Rofl alot of good stories especially the1.3k gold hacker one :D

 

 

 

I remember back in 01 the only way i could make money was the goblin house. I waited for the iron dagger spawn and collected 28 of them and then went to the sword shop in varrock and sold 1, waited for the store to restock and bring it down, and sold another. Took me FOREVER to get 1k and buy full iron but when I did i was like yea... im the greatest and i would laugh at the noobs wearing nothing :D

[SupportMage]

Those two bridges in Lumbridge. Not sure why.

[Thatguy555]

I didn't know what "nats" were.

[pokexpert]

In my newb days i picked the wrong food from the sandwhich lady which of course got me lost. Then since i was lost tried to change worlds and that didn't work so i made another account which is the one i currently use :D . Then the home tele came out in 2 days #-o .

[hephaestos8]

i went to fally, and tried to get my haircut, when i found out it cost 2k i quit, 2 weeks later i started playing again

[baalboy5]

Unlike most people, I wiki'd runescape befor I played.... of course making cash was always confusing In til a nice ( can't remember-god bless you nice dude-) gave me 50k

[Vincent]

i thought ppl with a skull over their head were at low hit points and were close to dying and needed food.

 

 

 

i thought the tutors on tutorial island would be jagex employees and i was nervous about starting.

 

 

 

i thought people chose roles in the game and would play those out like chefs and smiths etc. not do it all.

 

 

 

couldnt figure out how to make a fire until i saw a tinderbox over someone's head and finally figured it out.

 

 

 

I didnt know you could use arrow keys until rs2! i found spots in the game to center north and then set it to stop moving.

 

 

 

i couldnt find the place to fish either for a while, then started behind the altar south of falador, west of port sarim.

 

 

 

my interests in smithing and mining led me to tipit.

 

 

 

i remember in my first days wandering and finding a gold rock and i couldnt believe i could mine it and that there wasnt 50 people around trying to mine it. it was my discovery! i would be rich. \

[andy_matthews]

Heh. My major confusion had me trapped on tutorial island. I couldn't find where the music button. I was looking on the map, examining every item while searchign for it. It took me hours to find it. I felt like an idiot after I found it...

[wild_goat_14]

PK Skulls confused the heck outta me.

[dkw0101]

figuring out that I had to cross the bridge to get to varrock.cows.

[fasterthanU1]

the thing that most confused me hmmmm you know the realy large cow and chickin pen north of port sariam well lol i couldnt find my way out for a week also i hade no [cabbage] clue what nats were or what lobies were

[Yohbilleh]

I remember me and my friend always used to train on men in lumby in that room with the spinning wheel. We used to bury bones aswell. One time, there was a high level ther (lvl. 30 lol) so I got to burying my bones and then i see a "You will not leave this place mortal" I thought it was the high level killing me. My friend didnt go in that place for a month becuase he thought he would die.

[Roberthree]

I thought "pk" was "Perfect Kill" and as long as I lost some hp during the fight I wouldn't get skulled.

 

 

 

I used to think defense and hp were trained by getting hit, so I would go fight stuff without armor alot.

[Th3_Crusader]

Wondered why you couldn't drink water :-k

[Yes_Its_Ross]

RSC was confusing as hell. I mean... I couldn't even get through the first door in tutorial island for Pete's sake!
