A game that I say sucks. A few of my friends are addictified to it, and tried to suck me in. I played a few minutes, got bored and left, never to return. Players were lighting 400 fires just to "level up" on crap things like fire building. That skill would be cooler if it was like, Arson or something. You also cannot go around killing everyone that you see. Only weird little goblin thingies that rape sheep while you bake bread and cook shrimp in the middle of the street. Also many people try to get you to press "alt-f4" for a "special cheat". The sad thing is, people fall for it. And on top of it all, the graphics suck.

jesus where can i start,
1.annoying 12 year olds.
2.nerds who think they are popular because they have 50 people in their clan that only like them cuz of there "mage".
3.people who talk tough behind the computer because they cant say stuff to your face.
4.more addicting then heroine, crack, and cocaine combined.
I used to play this lame ass game, it really touched my social life to where i would want to stay home instead of go make out with girls at the movies or something sweet. I managed to quit and I havent played in about a year and i really dont miss it. Don't even try it out, if you see an ad with runescape on it close the damn page. I even paid to become a member, and my friends never found out i played because if they did i would become a loser. since i quit i gained 53 pounds of muscle and have a really hot girlfriend, and am a sophomore in high school playing varsity basketball, all because i quit and found better things to do in life. Seriously in this game they all call people noobs which makes them sound like a homosexual, you go into this place called varrock where in the center you will find people paying runescape money for someone to be their girlfriend, only to be crushed when there "girlfriend" runs off with the money or turns out to be a boy. I actually saw a case where in the back of some block looking castle (aka lumbridge castle) a dude had payed 3m gp for a girl to become his girlfriend. heres what i saw

boy: i gave you 3m gp so i guess your my gf now
girl: i have to tell you something.
boy: what??
girl: IM A BOY! YOU'VE JUST BEEN PUNK'D
*girl runs off with money*
boy: i spent 3 months fishing to get that money!

i seriously fell off my chair laughing

no! just no. this game killed my life, and drove me away from my family. i was like "it's jus a game, my mates play it will be fun".

then i had this crazy urge to start paying to play. then i couldn't stop. when i quit it was like a drug, calling me. i couldn't stop, i can't stop.

it is so shit, but its worse than cigarettes (uh i quit them easy like) and every time i play im bored shitless, but i think to myself, oh 5 more minuted won't hurt and 8 hours have passed and im still there.

a ridiculously addictive RPG overrun by 11 year olds

1. An MMORPG set in a medieval time frame, with skills to improve, mini-games to play, and is often filled with stupid people calling each other noobs to feel better about themselves.

2. Anything that is really addictive and devours your soul.

A Pay To Play MMORPG that offers a very limited free service to new players. The game is plagued by players who can p00n j00 pl0x. The game is also plagued by Asian goldfarmers who macro in the game and sell the money to give other players an unfair advantage. The company Jagex tried to stop the autoers, but if you go to yew trees today, you will still see level 3s with asian names macroing. Runescape is heavily plagued by scammers as well.

WARNING. This game is severely addicting and will suck you in if you start playing. The game is addicting because once you get extremely good in one skill, you will want to start becoming the best in another skill, and it never ends because the company keeps on adding new skills.

Their forum system is extremely strict and controlled, and your posts will be locked, or usually *hidden* if your comment portrays any truth about the game. For example, I was permanently banned from the game because I posted that the player mods are just stupid ban happy 12 year olds that will ban you simply because they are jealous of your stats. If you have a negative thought about the game, do not post it on the forums because it will be hidden and locked within 20 seconds.

The highly addicted players have around 300,000,000 exp in the game, which at a rate of 50k exp per hour, gives them a grand total of about 6,000 playing hours. This is the equivalent of about a years paycheck of around 40,000-80,0000 dollars for the average person not enrolled in college.

Stay away from Runescape, save your time, your social life, and get a job!

Dear god. I just read 15 pages of "definitions" and I'm utterly shocked. 99/100 people are being haters. Runescape isn't a black hole that will butt rape your soul into oblivion. It's something you play when you are bored.

To the losers who actually have grades drop from it, you are pathetic. I find no addictive quality in it, whatsoever, unless you are some crackhead or just plain lonely.

Not everyone goes around saying: Fr33 st00f pl0x :D

It's something that kills time faster then nearly anything except for Xboxlive (which still freaks me out the time warp in that shit, seriously...) I know quite a few people who play, and I'm in highschool. Not a SINGLE ONE has had a grade drop or lost any friends.

I log on to merchant an item or two, check on my kingdom, and occasionally do a holiday or limited event. Every now and again, like a weekend or vacation where nobody is home, I go on for maybe 2-3 hours to wait for people on Live

Addictive? One time I quit just to see how long I could take it. Wasn't hard at all. Give the game a shot, and if you already are the ignorant assholes you seem to be, your grades won't change for shit. But if your just the normal go with the flow stereotype, go for it. It's a nice way to kill time, not kill friends.
