Well...The time has finally come and I guess I gotta do this. I am quitting runescape. I was a player of runescape for around 3 years and have taken some breaks but now is the time to go. The game was fun while it lasted. I have recently noticed the downfall of this game and I personally believe its not gonna last much longer. I cannot stand 90% of the Runescape population they are a bunch of morons and underage kids. This game is just not as fun as it used to be for me and I just don't have the urge to play anymore. Where will I go? I will be playing World Of Warcraft as I enjoy that game much more and the community there is nice and friendly. I plan on sticking around the Neoseeker Runescape forum so all you that hate me...well this basically describes it  Will I be back? I will log onto Runescape every once in a while to see whats going on. If I ever get tired of W.O.W. I will probably come back to Runescape (provided its still around  ) and get back to playing. Well I got 18 days left so I will be on a little bit if anyone wants to do anything. R.I.P. Goturkeyhunt

Well you know what they say, once you hit rock bottom you got no where to go but up. I personally think that now that Jagex has ridden the game of all the scammers and autoers and chinese RS sweat-shops (even though I don't approve of most of the ways they went about it), Jagex will begin to improve the game again instead of tearing it down. They needed to strip it down to re-build it maybe. Anyways, good luck to you turkey boy. S'been fun having you gobblin' around.

I don't know how people play WoW. "Hey lets go kill a monster!" "Yeah Ok!" *Kills hunted monster* "Now what do you wanna do?" "Umm...lets go kill another monster!" "Ok..." *Next monster dies*
And the cycle pretty much repeats itself, besides raids and whatnot, but that's still similar...with RS at least you can do MUCH more non combat related tasks. I could care less about the graphics of a game, it all depends on the playability of it.

Meh, it's the "cool" thing to do nowadays. Play a crappy free MMO(I love Runescape, but acknowledge that it's not the best  ), get "tired" of it, move onto WoW, become pompous asshole(oh wait, Zachman's already there(kidding  )), probably end up buying a 360 and Halo 3. I kid you not. That is the route a lot of pre-teens/teens go nowadays.

You realize Runescape is nothing more than a giant grind? Saying WoW is repetitive when you play RS is really quite amusing.

quoteOkay let me explain how Runescape ruins your life.
So you're strolling down the sidewalk skipping and loving life. You're singing twinkle twinkle little star while you're skipping, and everyone's looking at you like you're a fagg0t. Say you're 12 at the time, which is a little more scary seeing as you're almost a teen and you're doing this.
So you hear from a friend of a cool new game called Runescape! You say hey! It doesn't need to be downloaded!? That's soooo cool!!! You skip inside and you keep singing (You gotta stop doing that) and you go online and go to Runescape. You think "Hmm..this is a cool game!" You continue to get more and more addicted.
We'll fast forward about 5-6 months. You've done everything in the free worlds and you're totally bored. You're now pondering why you play. Everything seems to repetitive but you're entertained anyway! So what's the point in playing? I'll tell you the point skiparoo, you're addicted and now you're obsessed with being the best. You're now playing the game 4, 5, 6 hours a day, it's gotten to be a big part of your life. You're now level 75, you're so proud of yourself, you get to call llots of people noob because you're higher leveled than they are.
You then think to yourself "Hey, there's a members world! I can totally pwn that!" Then you laugh in a high pitched voice and your mom throws a stapler at your head and tells you to stop laughing like a *bleep*. You listen.
You then beg your mom "Please mom! I wanna pwn in the members world!" After a few minutes of contemplating on what the word pwn means, she agrees to pay, but just for a few months in case you don't like it.
You're so excited! You're in a members world..but what's this..you're a level 75 and you're surrounded by level 100 + guys! Oh no, this isn't good. You're not one of the best in the pack anymore. You need to level up, you need to be the best.
At this point you're now spending about 8 hours a day on Runescape. You have it set in your mind that you gotta do all the quests, you gotta level up all your stats, you gotta be number 1! You keep training, you're level 90 now! Dude, you're almost there! You gained 75 pounds in the past 3 months but you're almost there!
Congratz, you've reached level 100! But..your birthday's tomorrow! You quickly think of a list to see what you want for your birthday, but the only thing that's going through your mind right now is..Runescape..Runescape...Runescape. You start to foam at the mouth. You make a mental note to see someone about that. You write down your birthday list "Runescape membership for 2 years" and give it to your mom. She says "...Is this it?" You're like "Yup." She's like..okay, only $120, not too bad. That's the subtle way you thought of to continue your addiction without your parents being too concerned.
You now have 2 more years of Runescape membership, you're happy, the membership was gonna expire tomorrow.
At this point you're level 100, and you've been playing for 3 years now. You're 15, you've missed your freshman prom. You've been faking injuries and sicknesses just to stay home from school to get some extra time on Runescape. You keep trying to complete quests, but by the time you complete one, two more are created. Now you spend even more time on Runescape. You're pulling all nighters, just to catch up with the quests.
Now you're level 105! You're so happy that you've raised 5 combat levels in such a short amount of time. You're close to the top spot. But at this point you're now grossly overweight.
It's your 18th birthday, and once again you ask for Runescape membership, nothing else. You don't have your license, you're still a virgin, you've had minimal contact with the outside world for the last 4 years. You still have over 40 quests to do..but you're level 120!! You're almost the best in the game!!
3 years later, it's your 21st birthday. By this time you've lost contact with all your friends, but you don't care. All that matters is Runescape. You ask for more memberships, and by this time your mom confronts you and knows you're addicted, and stops paying for your memberships. You're MAD. You came so close to getting to the final level, and your mom just cuts off your funds. On your 21st birthday! You resort to drastic measures to getting this money. You think, all I need is $5 a month. But you don't get a job, that requires going outside, and you don't want that. Instead what you do is you steal from your mom's purse. Your mom thinks you're off Runescape now! It'll be perfect! It's only $5 a month out of her purse, I'm sure she won't mind.
So you continue your membership, you're now level 125. You're 24 years old, you've been playing Runescape for 12 years. You've probably spent over 1,000 hours (Definetely more) playing. You have no friends, you're incredibly overweight, you've lost your connection with your parents, you're pale white because you haven't been outside in months, you've flunked school and gotten yourself expelled. But it's okay, as long as you have Runescape.
You're one level away from level 126 (the highest level you can reach in Runescape), and you finally make it! You're cheering, you're celebrating, you're on top of the world. Despite your real life being ruined, you're so happy that you've finally reached this "turning point" in your life. You then look at the stats board, expecting to see your name in first place. It turns out you're 53rd place, and 52 others have been level 126 before you, and have kept training. It turns out it all comes down to experience points.
Your world is turned upside down. This is the most upsetting thing that's happened in your life, and for the first time, you shut down Runescape out of your own will. You sit and re-examine your life. You've seen you've *bleep*ed it up. You just now realize you're fat. You've lost your parents, your friends, your education, and your future. All because of this game, Runescape. Runescape has ruined your life. You go on a homicidal spree and kill yourself.
And that's how Runescape ruins your life.
It's not completely serious, but some of it is true, just me being really bored. This is why i quit! Also i got hacked a day before the fair trade thingy

Thank you Lauzi and Killdozer.

That is some of the most inaccurate bullshit I have ever heard around here, unless that happened to you.
