Pure Hellspawn Posted January 15, 2009 I'm just curious to see if anyone plays Runescape. Right now, I have a level 92 character, but I really only go on him to waste time fighting other players (the rest of the game stinks). If anyone wishes to add me, just tell me your name. If you think the game is lame, please don't criticize me for playing it. I don't want to start a flamewar. 0 Share this post Link to post
Technician Posted January 15, 2009 I remember my friend playing this years ago, and hardcore at that. 0 Share this post Link to post
Pure Hellspawn Posted January 15, 2009 I used to be play a ton as well, but now I'm cutting the hours I play. Still, thought it would be nice to see if any fellow Doomers play the game. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mithral_Demon Posted January 15, 2009 I used to play, stunk after Grand Exchange, left at 99 with a balanced warrior type (80att+def, 90 str), but nothing more, never to be brung cause it's just not good. -Edit Also a memb. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dreadopp Posted January 15, 2009 I was level 103 (or 104, can't remember which), but when I became a F2P player, I went down to 98 or something. I just couldn't find anything to do on the game anymore. I guess I wouldn't mind going back to members for a while since there's a lot more quests, and what-not, to do. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted January 15, 2009 I don't play much at a given time; Usually a month then stop for about six-to a year. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yeah, there have been a few new releases. I'm sure you have heard of the Corporeal Beast? It's a monster that's even deadlier than Jad; having twice the HP of a Baron of Hell (and can hit almost as hard too). Or you could try the first GM Quest, While Guthix Sleeps. With a requirement of 270 QP, you have to slay a level 450+ Balance Elemental, plus two Tormented Demons that drop parts of a Dragon Plate. 0 Share this post Link to post
Creaphis Posted January 15, 2009 My vote is the big one in those results there. However, "play" is inaccurate - the correct vernacular would in fact be "played" in my case. My account was named "Creaphis" which set a trend for nearly all websites I've joined since. 0 Share this post Link to post

Eh... having a discussion over forums is probably as close to "meeting" as having our avatars stand in close proximity.

I'm slightly disciplined. "Creaphis" is actually quite meaningless, aside from the meaning I may be unintentionally giving it. Perhaps it's now gathering connotations that have something to do with being contrary for the sake of being contrary. Due to my highly creaphistic posting, I may actually be a living embodiment of the prototypical Creaphism. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shadow Dweller Posted January 15, 2009 Hell, I don't even remember. I haven't played that game since high school, and even then I don't think I ever made it very far. I don't remember getting past level 20, if I did I'm surprised. 0 Share this post Link to post

Craigs Posted January 15, 2009 I play it occasionally. I've got to say, most of the quests are just so bad it's not even funny. A lot of them consist of just taking one object from one guy and then giving it to another guy. I'm not sure how Jagex could even consider doing something like that fun, and even if it were fun, I'd probably just get a job as a delivery boy since I'd be getting paid to do it. The community really sucks too. Here's an example of an average Runescape conversation: "player 1: [skill] lvl??? player 2: 35 player 1: rofl nob player 2: fu dis not my main ur da nob! ur a hug nob!" Except it wouldn't look like that since Runescape has that shitty censor system that censors every freakin word even if it doesn't even remotely resemble a profane word. 0 Share this post Link to post

Actually they just eased the filter system a little bit. I'll admit that there are lots of noobs, but there also plenty of good people who play it for entertainment as well. The sad thing is that there are probably a lot of little kids (under 13) who play that should in fact only being using quick chat. 0 Share this post Link to post

Creaphis Posted January 15, 2009 Technician said:On topic: Do they charge to play this? There's a free version which is fine to start with. The better version is $5 a month. There are many reasons not to play this, but price isn't one of them. Here's another word: when a group with a stable, unanimous stance on an issue suddenly splits into the majority and a lone dissenter, this is known as "creaphission." 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted January 15, 2009 Technician said:On topic: Do they charge to play this? Think about it like Doom shareware. If you buy a member's subscription, you get an extra 2/3 of world to explore and you can get new weapons. The worst thing about runescape is the language filter, which filtered every possible curseword imaginable, and every possible mispelling of those curse words, which led to conventional small talk having important words censored by accident. 0 Share this post Link to post

The game is pretty fun just playing for free, but I want to get the expansions to see what new items and stuff are available. Especially Alien Invasion. That one looks and sounds pretty cool. I always see drop ships flying around, but when they land, I can't go in them. :( 0 Share this post Link to post
