  1. Its like you develop a different part of you that is determined to only play runescape, just shut that part of you up.
  2. Runescape has more or less been a part of our lives, wether it be small part, or a huge part. For me it has been in my life for over 5 years, but three serious ones. I am a normal teenager, like the majority of players, but I cant say that I am the same normal teenager I was three years ago. There has been tough times and great times, but through it all the only thing that stayed constant was my desire to play. But did it really? Do you really think you want to play? Take a moment and think back to the first time you got members, or the first time you go full rune, can you remember the actual feeling of wanting, desiring, to play? Now tell me, is that the feeling you have right before you log in everyday? This, actually is only a small part of what I am here to discuss. Runescape is in more ways than one, like a drug. Now hear me out, when I think about why people still play when they have no real desire to play, it seems perfectly clear to me. Runescape becomes your life, there is a median but its a useless one, I will discuss later. I want you to think back to your life before Runscape, many of you will say you had a gf, or your grades were better, or you had freinds that you lost touch with. The reason that you lost touch with your friends, is that Runescape can actually take over your life. Now all of you expereinced players or even beginers, know that Runescape is only fun when your putting a lot of time and effort into it, if your not then your getting nowhere and it gets boring quick, like a lot of other video games. But Runescape is not a normal game, runescape simulates what a lot of people desire in real life, friendship, excitement, adventures, thrills, even love. But most of this is not real. These are generic replacements of the real emotions. Like any drug you become addicted to the substance tricks your mind into thinking you need it. Now if you will, remember when I was talking about actually desiring to play? After a while that desire dissapears, but your mind tricks you into thinking that you need it, its a part of your life, it has replaced things in life that may be harder to earn or achieve but, in the end, are more worthwhile and satisfying. When I personally think back to my life three years ago, I was dating, I had closer relationships with my friends that I appreciated very much, but even that was taken over by Runesacpe. I have forgotten what its like to actually have fun, develop relationships, things with actual value. Call me stupid, but there is nothing I desire more than to go back three years and change it all. Runescapes grip on your life is so overwhelming, for example even as I right this my mind is still telling me I want to play. Some of you may say,"Runescape hasn't taken over my life, I only play for an hour or two a day and I have plenty of real friends" well that may be true but sooner or later if you continue playing it builds its grasp on you, no game that you have played for years, YEARS, can not become a part of your life. As far as finding a median goes, well it doesnt exist, you can try playing an hour a day but the game just isnt fun unless you put time into it. What is even worse is for the more experienced players who have put so much time into the game that they cant be asked to raise any hard skills but they still play because they need it, wether they think they do or not. Wether or not you get anything out of this is your choice, but there is one thing that I insist you do, try and think back to before you started playing, think about what life was like than, think about how runescape has become a part of your life, wether it is destructive or an anti-drug, just think, and ask yourself, was it all worth it... P.S. thanks for reading it all if you did, and please DISCUSS. I would also like you to post your RSN and how long you have been playing somewhere in your post 8-) Sincerly, Mexican5.0 (5 YEARS)

  6. Just wondering but, did you string all 180k before the update? Hehe i hate when that happens.
  7. Recently I was having a conversation with a friend of mine and we were talking about goals, well i told him i was going for all 90 stats, and he said i should go for 99 str. After telling him how much exp i needed to get to 99 he simply said, "Oh well your probably too lazy then i suppose?" Bad idea.
  8. Good luck on your goal. P.S. I hate your title with a passion, using incorrect grammar isn't cool, it just makes you look like an idiot.
