Best year to play RuneScape?

[Poopingman]

2001, joining when the game first began, plus the sense of discovery was tenfold what it is today, since everything hadn't already been done by someone else, good times...

[Huge Noob]

'03. Back in RSC when the community was a lot friendler. Rares were cheaper :P (Traded my drag med for a red phat on RSC once...) just an overall more enjoyable game in some aspects.

[00 Quanta]

2001-2003, the low population of players during the day and night.

Anytime Pre-RS2. PKing was the best :)

[hiddendeath9]

Never played rsc too too much so i wouldn't know about then, but pre-msb nerf or pre-whip pking was always alot of fun.

[youknowwho]

well it was the best when i first started and everything was new and everytime i played i saw something new and i ventured somewhere new so i say late 2004 early 2005

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i have bad stats because i had another main that got perm banned #-o

[rooneyrules0]

2004 is when I joined.. but I wish I was around in 2003 for the scythe and bunny ears.

2001,why?your the only oe wo knows how to pk good =D and your a kinda semi-pro already ^^ and you can still get rares like masks santa etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

begin of runescape ftw!!!

[tomdavies90]

the year phats came out for obvious reasons :wink: and unobvious reasons like it was meant to be a much closer and friendly community

[blue107]

2001-2004, but if I had to choose I'd choose early 2003. 2001 was great for me, the game was new and I have a lot of memories, in 2002 I was number 1 in fishing and I had a lot of fame. In 2003 this forum owned and I had all the friends in the world

[PhaperPlane]

2005 was hawt :o Hats and Scarves, Zombie Heads the rubber chicken and more :D

[troymantis]

early 2005 had me growing, i lost the rubber chicken due to a break, but managed to get all the othe events, all the way to today, people were mature ten, but now...well...crap! :-#

[Mat]

2001, the year i started :-w

[aznmidget448]

2003 was a good year. The autoers weren't a big problem and Santa Hats only cost 200-500k. Boy I miss those days. If you saw a low level woodcutter wearing a Santa hat, that was me ;)

[Overflow_C]

2004.

 

 

 

I was new and every time i'd go on i would learn heaps of stuff.

[dude_of_war4]

2002 when phats came out (dang i wasnt there at the time :evil: )

[Wisp]

2001 -2004 low price of rares, less rule breakers.

[handman003]

Even though I've been around since '04, '06 was definitely my Favorite year. I spent time here on the forums, learned so much more about the game, and bettered myself because of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, it was the year I got members \ :thumbsup: .

2000. Waaayyyy back when there were no noobs..... and no players.... lol JK - Don't flame me lol. 2003 I guess, good times back then.

[Beamo26]

Anytime back in RSC was good :

[Kill_Thomas9]

Update wise, and game content additions?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2005!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

we got barrows, ancients, great new quests, and tons more great things.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I started in 2004, so I would say that was the best year, community wise, that I was around for.

[icedearth06]

Well, any RSC days were good. Less cheaters and not to mention more fun. I found that the graphics in a way I liked more than RS2, maybe because I was used to them. I dont know but all I can say mith and addy looked sweet back then :shock:

[Jock66600]

2001 since it was so simple and it was sooo very few people!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aw the glory days when I spent about an hour til I figured how the wind mill worked.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So darn confusing, now its just tutors galore in 2006.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2001 was the best!

[XwitchKingXx]

2001-2002. simpler times for me.

[zxyiz]

2005, ahh good times. That's when I started, and back then the community was still good, I'm sure it was even better before it, but back then I could walk up to the furnace and ask someone to make me some iron bars, (because I couldn't smith iron lol) and not worry about getting scammed. Also when I first started I could be proud of myself because of my shiny new iron longsword, now I'll only be satisfied with a party hat set, all the barrows sets, 85 slayer, 94 magic, 76 fishing, 80 cooking, full dragon, a santa hat, 91 runecrafting, and a fire cape.
