A MMORPG by jagex LTD. often associated by people who don't play with 12 year olds and adults who live in their parents basement because they havn't played and don't know. Never given a chance by its WoW obbsesed critics.
Runescape player: wow have you ever played runescape, it is pretty cool.

Get the runescape mug.Anyone noticed how RUNESCAPE supposedly spells RUNE-SCAPE, but if you break it up differently, it spells RUN-ESCAPE? Subliminal messaging? Hmm....
Runescape is a massive multiplayer online computer game (MMO) where high-level players are to be simultaneously admired and pitied. Admired because they can "pwn" and do cool things in the game, but pitied because when you think about how they've spent HUNDRED OF HOURS accumulating a slight charge on a hard drive in Cambridge, it's kind of sad. (This includes me; I had an account with 500+ hours logged.)
I think it probably is possible to play this game in a healthy way, i.e. while still having a normal, healthy life on the side. But only if you're not looking for HAPPINESS in the game. If you play this game because real life is miserable and you need an escape, you have a much higher chance of getting addicted.
That said, if you're determined to get addicted to something to begin with, because you want a sedative, RS is a much better "drug" than cocaine, alcohol, or sex, because it 1) costs less, 2) is less destructive, and 3) wreaks its destruction more slowly, giving you (and the people who care about you) more time to turn things around in RL.
In sum, RS is a dangerous drug. But as drugs go, it's one of the cheaper, less dangerous ones.

Sometimes Runescape can be a way of running from a problem that needs to be faced; sometimes, it can be a form of cowardice.

Get the runescape mug.Highly addictive MMORPG. More addictive then crystal meth, cocaine, and heroin combined.Never play this game. DO NOT listen to anyone who says otherwise they are most likely already infected. If you've already started to play Runescape seek treatment imediatley.
How to know you are addicted.
1. You play Runescape.
2. Your Runescape friends become more importent then your real life ones.
3. You'd rather have 100m in Runscape then a $100 in real life.
4. Your grades drop.
5. Your skin becomes paler.

Get the Runescape mug.The Most ADDICTIVE game ever. Thousands of people play everyday and waste hours of their life. The point is to raise levels and fight other players. The censor takes out every single word that may be consitered rude. Stupid people pay $5 a month for a membership.
"Sorry, I can't go to the mall, I'm playing runescape and I'm fighting the kbd!!! Oh SHIT... NOOOO.... "

Get the runescape mug.These people are known to be total A-Holes.
they beg, whine, tick people off and comment negatively on basically anything that isn't runescape.
Not all runescape players are Runecapers, they average player will usually play, forget and play again, while the Runescaper will play, play, brag, rant, play,play and be a jackass, or whack off.
They are heard talking about runescape 80% of the time. other times they are being jackasses or ranting on another game, that's probably better.
hanging around runescapers are like hanging around cock blockers or twat swatters, commonly turning the very flirty (or normal) conversation into something really gay or embarrassing, provided you are not a runescaper.
