Warning: This game sucks.Seriously, if you want to throw your life down the drain, there are better ways. Like heroin. You play it once, think "OK, this game has shit ass graphics, horrible gameplay, the worst lag I have ever seen in my entire life, but there's lots of things to do." So you continue playing it, until you become completely obsessed. So obsessed, some people bring ther labtops to school to play runescape at lunch and spares, stay up until three in the morning playing runescape in their closets and actually pay money to play. If you play Runescape, stop now. There are better things to life.
Defintion: A game developped by Jagex, affectionately refferred to as "Fagex". The game itself is a jumble of terrible graphics, awful gameplay and the most repetetive skill system I have ever seen. All you do is click on things! But it doesn't stop there. Oh no. The community is the worst I've ever seen, and that includes MapleStory. Let me paint you a picture.
Typical Runescape screen messages
dragonslayer67: pAYING 6000 GPS FOR CEX!
Iamcoolknight: THAT WAS MY $#%$IN COAL NOOB!
pwnerguy11: Lol u only lvl 10
Iamcoolknight: I HAVE LEVEL 108 BUT HE BAN! NOOB! MOTHER *&^#IN NOOB!
pwnerguy11: Lol you $%# I pwn you
pwnerguy11:F
Pwnerguy11:U
Pwnerguy11:C
Pwnerguy11 K You noob!
dragonslayer67: plz b my gf. give gps
girliemage78 (who's really a guy)K
dragonslayer67: (gives GP) K now gimme cex plz
(girliemage78 runs away)
As you can see, the scene is disturbing to say the least. Everyone is either spazzy 10 year olds, 50 year old perverts or horny teenagers who can't get it in real life so have Runescape "cex". Even the nicest person will have a ton of people either in game sexually assaulting them or calling them noobs. Not so pleasent.
If that doesn't kill it for you, this will. Tim* was an athletic, fun to be around guy when me and my friends started playing this game. We all quickly moved on to more fun, less addicting MMO's. Not Tim though. Tim became sucked into the game. At first it wasn't too bad. He still had a girlfriend, was on the soccer and basketball team and hung out with us. This began to change. First, he stopped hanging out, going to movies etc. Then he dumped his girlfriend for the sole reason "She took up too much time." He dropped out of school teams for the same reasons. All Tm would talk about is his Runescape character, his smithing level and his "Runescape GF" who we eventually found out was a guy. (I know, gross.) He stopped eating, to the point where he would eat maybe a meal a day up in his room. He stopped washing himself, and the acne that developped was horrendous. He stayed home from school to play. Tim's parents eventually found out what was happening and took away his computer. Tim told us he wanted to kill them. He stole a labtop to fuel his addiction. Tim lost 50 pounds. A good looking guy was now completely hideous. He failed seven subjects on his report card. Eventually, his parents found out about the stolen labtop. They were furious. Tim was kept in his room for two weeks, under supervision to make sure he hadn't smuggled in a labtop. He tried to escape three times. Eventually, we managed to coax him into going cold turkey. Tim was lucky: he only threw away four monthes of his life. He has returned to normal now, and is an Honour roll student and captain of the Soccer team. But there are other people that haven't. Don't start.

Runescape is a MMORPG which was created by Andrew Gower who founded Jagex Limited in 2001. While in development Runescape's previous name was DeviousMUD. When Runescape was released it had 2D graphics, however sometime around 2004 they released Runescape 2, which is the version of Runescape you can play at present day. The graphics were re-vamped into 3D graphics and gameplay value was better as Jagex had started bringing out new skills, The first of the new skills was Runecrafting which was very popular at the time and changed the way people played Runescape forever.
Despite many peoples views about this MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) I personally think that this game is a good game to play as it is fun, enjoyable, it passes time, some players in game are very competetive and finally, it has hundreds of quests to complete and 20+ skills to train. I have played Runescape since march 2003 and I still play. A lot of people seem to mention an addictive quality about Runescape. Personally I think Runescape isn't addictive I just think it is a good game that hooks you and entices you from the beggining moments that you start playing (That's a sign of a good game eh?). Overall Runescape is a GOOD GAME despite what people say (Or why would Runescape have over 100,000 members?) and I think it is worth giving it a try.
People with a low attention span should NOT play Runescape.
People under the age of 13 should NOT play Runescape.
People looking for BF/GF should NOT play Runescape.
People who have bad attitude problems should NOT play Runescape.

Runescape is a good game, there is no denying that. Yes you are entitled to your opinion, but your opinion doesn't mean anything seeing as Runescape has over 200,000 players and has been going for 7 years.
I am fed up of people saying that 'people who play Runescape are all nerds'. You get 'nerds' on MSN, Myspace, Wow, Youtube, HL2, CSS, Gaia, AIM, Xbox Live etc and I bet most of the people saying that use atleast one of the above.

A game with addictive gameplay to some. To others (me) its just plain out boring. I really don't see whats so entertaining about doing the same thing over and over and over again. To some people thats their whole life. Same go's for Counter Strike.
Clint: So Brian, What did you do this weekend?
Brian: Well, Saturday i spent all day playing Runescape. Then i drank a can of bawls so i could stay up all night to play runescape. Then i spent all sunday playing. My girlfriend IMed me but i blocked her because i to busy playing Runescape to talk to her.

A very sad online multiplayer game on the net which will make you and your friends nerdy and loosers. I played this game for about 3 months then i realised it was shit and sad.
My best friend next door to me use to do everything with me like go bike riding, throwing rocks at trains, play soccer, and more other cool things. But not he sits at his computer playing "Runescape" i then got bored of him and started to bag him, teasing him about runescape to encourage him to stop playing the damn game.

Me: Hey you wanna go buy some drinks at the shops?
Friend: Nah, my mum wants me to do some cleaning.
Closes the door.
I walk to his window and see him playing Runescape instead of cleaning.

A highly addictive game, with a massive amount of people hating it and loving it. There is little point to it, yet people seem to not be able to stop playing.
Joe: Have you stopped playing that stupid runescape game yet?
jim: No, I swear, they put nicotine in it!
