The most addicting and life-ruining game out there. I started playing in 06 or 07 and at first I thought it was stupid. A few months later I saw myself sitting hours on end in front of a screen getting a skill cape. I was able to drop the addiction for a few years, but I always would come back. Runescape takes over and it is all you think about. You don't think about school grades, work, family, nothing. You just care about the game and how to get your next cape. I wish I would have never found out about this game.
Mom- son, I am very sick.

Runescape is a free online multiplayer game, or MMORPG. At first, the graphics weren't impressive, but it was original and had a fair amount of players. Then, they came out with a newer RuneScape. It had better graphics, but still not that good compared to other games, but what it did have was a lot of "dedicated" players. For a while, people compared RuneScape to World of Warcraft, saying RuneScape was just a knockoff. Then, JaGeX released a graphic update and system update, with more content. The "fan base" was larger than ever. The graphics and adjustments took a while to get used to, there were lots of complaints about how everything had abruptly changed, but after about 3 months they stopped. Now, RuneScape is a well-known MMORPG with impressive graphics (for a MMORPG); currently the most popular. They even got into the Guinness Book of World Records.

In my opinion, RuneScape is easy to get attatched to. You should only play if you can easily quit things with no problem. I honestly still get on it mildly and I've been playing RuneScape for about 2 years in total. There's just something very unique about RuneScape.

It is filled with young kids who lie about their age, though. And most people get a little too serious with gameplay, or they just roleplay - which is queer in my perspective, but whatever.
Example of serious RuneScape gamer (also kids who lie about their age to be able to play): "Dude stp klling those dragz!! I need the xp u idiot!!!!! Go kill urself cuz i wnt xp n i ned 56 str so eff off lozer..!"

Example of role-player: "*gives Imagirlonrs23 a ring* wanna get married? Ur the only gf iv evr had = plz?"

1 of the best & most addictive games of all time! Graphics are piss suckage, but it gets u to love it, like the weighted companion cube. Although Freaks, jocks and bullys never play it. they think they're too cool or roxorz to get n00bified.
Jock: Runescape sucks

Incarnate: (takes mage robes 'n' death runes) DIE!!!

A.K.A Poor's man WOW (World of Whitchcraft or is it Warcraft, IDK)
Highly addictive game that eventually devours one's soul. People's lives get destroyed. Very dangerous. Stay away from it kids. And the graphics aren't that good anyways.
Geezz, look @ Peter, he plays Runescape 24/7 and he has been trying to complete Grade 12 for 3 years now. lol.

A game degined by Jagex which is a MMORPG (massvive, multiplayer, role, playing, game) it can boring and kind of lame but when you are a mamber, WOAH IT IS WIKED. in a way Jagex sort of push you in to being a mamber so they get paid. unlike Maplestory, the only thing that benifits nx are the new treasure hunt of mv, cool clothing and stuff, and puchrasing rare items on stock in the trade.
person: runescape stinks it is unfair
member: it sucks if.... you are a non-member. it is highly addicting
person: i rather play maplestory beacuse it has doesn't require being a member to do cool stuff
member: ok i guess be my guess
