Tip.It Times Presents: An Interview with Gregechidna6

Recommended Posts

The Editor: What skills were available when the game started? In my short time as a player I've seen the addition of slayer, farming and construction. And now hunting has just come out this month. What was the original skill set?

 

 

 

another clue as to who the editor is?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyway i reading that made me really want to play classic. I started an account when i was a noob on rs 2 but prefered the new graphics and skills etc, so i abondoned my account :( i think jagex should implement at least some zones of the wilderness with this 3 stage rule thingy

I played on rs when there were only around 5 servers, like 2 months after the duping is when i started. so i never go any dupes pity.

 

 

 

and he's right old rs had a mich better community with only very few people playing, i wish i cold still play rsc so bad, i'd pay jages to play.

 

 

 

also....

Tis a shame. I agree the community is the essence of the game. There are very few efforts to continue it. I wish the best of like you find one before you quick. I was extremely lucky and have met upon a group of very good nice people. Communities are no longer presented, they have to be made now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My tip would be to find a friend or two you know very well as a friend, talk to them about them, and then they introduce one of their best friends. Choose only the best. Not statwise, person-wise. Then the group spreads on. Occasionaly fun meetings, such as trawler or merely grouping up to chatter (Rogues den is great for this, or fishing if you're in an odd bunch who enjoy it)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice read, Thanks!!

Wow, what a great article.

 

 

 

I've always wondered what RSC was like way at the very beginning, I learned a lot of new things. I think people enjoy plaing what they are used to. People like Gregechidna6 like classic more, because it is what you're used to. However, the 220 thousand people playing RS2 right now like it because it is what they are used to. I think getting 99 in any combat stat is hard now... Anyways, thanks for that article.

I can remember when I first started playing Runescape... There were three servers with a 300 people limit, and usually only a 100 playing at each.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was a very different game back then, it just swallowed you up completely. I remember wandering off to the Lumbridge forest right away and coming upon a strange and haunted house. A quest! I spent a VERY long time in that house...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I really enjoyed the article, it was great!

Excellent, excellent article, very much appreciated, Greg and The Editor. :) Always wondered what it was like back in RSC (only started a couple of years ago). I remember when RSC was available to F2P... I tried it, and sadly got incredibly bored of it after a while since it was very difficult to do just the Tutorial Island section.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just shows how much easier Runescape is.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But once again, great read. Kudos to you. ^^

Thanks a lot for this article. It really made me dream back to the old days :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like other people have said: I could not agree more on your views about the downhill of the Runescape community. I don't know if my memory glorifies the past, but as I remember it, back in the first couple of years in classic, almost everyone went along. Everyone knew each other and "lived in peace and harmony".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I remember the early days when I was in awe of players like Tks, Bluerose13x, and Zonghui. I remember when I bought my first r2h. It was the best weapon at the time and I bought it for 150 k, which was an incredible amount of money at that time. I remember having fun powermining with the "gang" in Dwarven mine. I remember how happy I was the first time I became a member. Jagex had just made it possible to become a member and gain extra benefits, and it was just.. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like Runescape 2 because of all the things you can do, but at the same time I still miss Classic..

nice article :) those days were the best. also (on beta) every few weeks all the stats were wiped as andrew and paul upgraded bits and pieces lol.

 

 

 

Greg killed me a few times (on my original char) but all things change i suppose now it is so different. good luck to all :)

Wow this guy is rich! I mean he could become number one in smithing in just a couple of months. Now thats power,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

p.s. who was bluerose? Anyone know?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wow... who is bluerose. You must truly be in the younger generation of the game. Bluerose13x was one of the first, if not the first, player to reach 99 smithing, and thus was the first to be able to make rune 2h's, plates, and legs. If you had a 2h in the old days, it might as well have had Bluerose written on the hilt. Of course, this made Bluerose very popular, and was the fuel for many a conversation.

It makes me miss the good old days of RSC. I was an adventurer and a pker in the beginning...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I guess I was lucky to see what it was like. I started in February 2001 because my brother was a Sabre. When I came quit and came back in 2004, I decided to stay with RSC when RS2 was made. Now that game and all that's left of Runescape's golden age is dying, slowly but surely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No thanks to Jagex, the people who locked the game to all new players... :wall:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ah well. I guess we'll just have to muddle through the game and hope the community changes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, good article. : /
