Al_Bhed Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Anyone that has retired from runescape or basically quit for a long time because of some reason post here! I retired after I was scammed by putting all my stuff into someone's account when I got it, then the person just simply typed in his recovery answers and changed the password. After that I simply gave up the was the last straw. In the past I've been ripped off or item scammed by someone quickly taking back the rune items, and (almost got me with this one) putting items in notes and switching rune long sword with addy long sword. Anyways I tried starting from scratch except for the skills I had on my character but my computer is so bogged down thanks to me downloading Jagex. :wall: So if anyone has a something they'd like to post about what happend post here. FOr me I converted over to ARENAscape.net and KingdomofLoathing.com to transfer the habit.

Brandon_N Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I retired and moved on to other games. However Jagex updated it so nicely I felt the need to start playing again. I've been playing since '03. - Brandon Have an empty feeling you can't get rid of?Visit Here Saddest Song Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R2Keen2 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I'd pretty much left the game back before the graphics update though i returned on occasion to try out different skills such as agility or do some random crafting. I left because after playing Ragnarok the combat system was rather boring and then moving on to EQ runescape just paled in comparison, since then i've played World of Warcraft and tried a host of other games. As of now my consistant gaming is once a week i play Savage Worlds (tabletop game) with a local group. - Wanderer Forever- Retired Tip.it Crew and Board Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aznmidget448 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I've taken many long breaks from runescape (possibly taking another one right now. I'm not sure yet). I've taken these breaks because I got hacked one time and sometimes I just don't find runescape as amusing as it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XwitchKingXx Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Well, I "thought" I was quitting RS, so I dropped all my stuff on members, and well. I forgot his info so even though he doesn't have anything, I can't get on him anyway.. but I would've liked to get on him for his (decent) stats.

Al_Bhed Posted December 2, 2006 Author Share Posted December 2, 2006 Yes.. some random dude gives you his pass? They play smart. I wouldn't have put my stuff on it you know. Actually I did know the guy, he graduated from highschool went to college, wanted to give up the habbit passed it down, and it was passed down to like 3 people so it had nothing on it, I eventually got it changed the pass and put all my stuff into since he had a decent combat lvl of 89. Then the next day couldn't get into because the original owner decided to take it back. The one thing that was never changed was his recovery questions.

Was it something so little that it was practically stupid?

93element Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I quit mainly from Nov '05 (just logging on to get event items) and started playing again. I was shocked with the new interface and most of my b list gone :uhh: . This is also my first post on tipit since.... who knows when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb_bart Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I take a lot of breaks because I lose interest or want to stand up a lot. I quit 9 months after I lost all my 'pretty hats' too. You know, the kind people buy on eBay. Banned from Runescape on a day I didn't play, for a real world trade I never did.

Dazzuh Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I've taken many breaks from RS, some really long.. I started in February 2002, i took about a year long break at one point. I've taken many over breaks of 1-4 months. :? It's only really now i'm getting in a way serious about RS and levelling, doing fun stuff etc. Currently not active on RuneScape.
