Simply put : The most addictive and time-wasting thing someone can involve themselves in. If you haven't played NEVER START! If you quit, you'll eventaully be sucked back in.
1: Have you played Runescape?
2: I've racked up 140+ days of game play, Made 200+ accounts, played since 2004, and quit numerous times. Each time I quit I drop all my st00f; and before the GE, I would give it all away.

Runescape is a MMORPG created by JaGeX Ltd. The game offers a player many skills to train such as all forms of combat (magic, ranged, and mele) as well as non-combat skills like mining and runecrafting.
The game has a large amount of players in F2p (free to play) and in P2p (pay to play). The free version is almost like a demo, which gives the player a basic understanding of the game as well as hundreds of items to use. The pay to play version has exponentially larger amounts of items, quests, and skills to train. The Pay to play version costs $5.99 a month.
Many people enjoy the game, but also, many people despise it for it's graphics, repetitive gameplay (Point and click style), and large amounts of younger kids starting off accounts in the F2p version.
Also, the game is described as being HIGHLY addictive. As a current runescape player myself, I suggest Taking large amounts of time off of playing runescape to focus on school work and a social life.
If given the opportunity to socialize with friends or train a Runescape Account, choose the friends, RuneScape Accounts will always be there for you, and are not deleted by JaGeX unless the account has had over approx. 500+ days of no use.

Stupid game where 850.000 people =(guys of 12 years old, nerds, fags, guys with no life.) play this game because they have no idea how many things they miss in real life. I hear nerds and fags talking to me about how their daily runescape life was. E.G. "YES, Almost 2 levels further and I can fish sharks." Then the non-players (Including me) react like "Yaaay" in the meaning of "Do we care?" I have a friend who is never changing of subject to talk when we are heading to watch a movie, or renting a game or when I'm sporting and he's phoning me about what I'm doing, I'm inviting him to sport with me and asks him to wear training clothes but when he comes I don't see his training clothes just as nerdy as it always is and he comes with bullshit talks of runescape.
Aland: Hey what's up you coming to watch e.g. "Fuck runescape?"
Christophe: Yeah sure.
When they're heading to the movie.
Christophe: Hey guess what I was training and training I continued some people advised me to stop.
Aland (Thinks): Wow, he did some training exercises.
Christophe: But I didnt stop but when I had low health I quickly ran back to varrock and....
*Breaking conversation*
Aland (Thinks): Haaaah, he was talking about getting muscles in anti-real life AKA runescape.
Christophe: But still I'm wondering why are these giant moss spiders always dropping me mithril axes, that sounds cool.
Aland: You know what I want that they must drop?
Christophe: What?
Aland: A message wrote in big saying: STOP TALKING SHIT BECAUSE I DONT HAVE ANY CLUE WHAT YOU SAY AND STOP PLAYING RUNESCAPE AND PLAY REAL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!
Christophe: Yeah sure.

The biggest fail in all the land. The people that took the time (however little) to make this are complete idiots. This game, by no means, deserves the title of mmorpg; it's a want-to-be game. Jagex found a way to make the most boring fail of a game possible. Physics are non-existant, graphics are about the equivalent of Super Nintendo (at best) and the most action-packed attack has no explosions, just a woom, boom and a little poof of light. Im sorry, but if you think Jagex is actually a good developer, you are almost as noob as they are. The average age of every player is like 7, and they all think they're cool because they can right click on objects over and over and over again for HOURS. If you have so much time, don't waste it with Runefail, play WOW! World of Warcraft is a good game and once you play it you'll never want to hear the name Runescape again. And yes, i have a high lvl main and a high lvl pureist on Runescape, which is currently taking up 6 hours of my life every day.
I hate the fact that my favorite game is Runescape.
I don't even like it anymore, but I just can't stop!... Someone help me!

A MMORPG that has a free population, referred to as "F2P" and a members, called "P2P". Members get a vastly more comprehensive game but have to pay from £2.50 to £3.50 a month depending on method of payment.
RuneScape has developed greatly over the previous years and now has over 5million members, with an average age of 16.
It is notoriously addictive, and the majority of the players are generally embarassed to admit playing it infront of their friends, particularly non-players. Often consumes people entire lives for a period of time and players will find themselves wasting an entire evening or day sat at the computer, leaving only to eat and defecate.
It involves training an avatar's stats, and increasing its wealth.
There are multiple elements of the game:
Skilling involves primarily training non-combat stats, often incredibly rich players that may only be level 3. Usually these skillers have a 'main' which is another account that will have a high combat level or a good experience and knowledge of the game.
PKing is a large factor of Runescape and many players make accounts solely for this purpose, often called 'pures' which will train a specific combat skill to make them more powerful.
C/C appreciated.

It wouldn’t be horrible to say lion share of the reviews on this game are extremely biased and opinionated, forsaking the fact and logic. “This game is very addictive!”, “Graphics don’t matter”.. These are all (wrong) opinions.
Like all MMORPG’s, RuneScape shares the most common characteristic of all of them; Numerical based stats, and the boring, time-consuming, and above all repetive acts of acheiving them. All MMORPG’s are basically an insult to a person’s intelligence; it’s always the same dull thing. No surprises, just buffing up your avatar/character.
Gameplay:
Point, click. The only instances where one would use the keyboard would be chatting — Trust me, there isn’t much worth talking to.
What’s wrong, not in depth enough? The generality holds true for the entire game. God forbid someone tried to simplify the repetive actions in the game with a macro! This forsakes the TRUE users, who perform the mind-numbingly simple actions for hours on end, by hand! Those PERVERTS.
PvP:
Point, click.
Community:
A pedophiles paradise; Not one runescape user has even a follicle of public hair.
On the message boards, one of the rules is not to mention competitive games (Blatant fucking bureaucracy).
Updates:
“With other updates featuring clockwork toys, fairground grabbing claws and rocking chairs, we know you won’t be disappointed!”
Rocking chairs? Holy shit.. I mean, fuck World of Warcraft’, we got chairs that ROCK… That isn’t worth 5 dollars a month, in my book, especially in the year 2006.

A game developed by the British company JaGeX (Java Gaming eXperts) the game became massively popular among young people (under 13 year olds even though the games rules state you must be 13+) the game lost a significant amount of popularity after the loss of "PKing" (player killing) even though it was a small part of the game and you could still kill other players the mind of an eleven year old is i want it my way and if i don't get it ill have a hissy fit.
