Ltcolonelarcher... i have to really agree with you... they don't even try the game and yet, they still hate it! so what if someone reaches lvl 70... why does that mean that they have no life? SOMEONE MUST REPLY TO THAT QUESTION.
Why do people criticize something they don't even know what it is?
what if someone plays an hour a week... and they reach lvl 70... they have played for 5 or 6 years? they still have the other hours of the week with friends. I would consider that a life.
And wy do people who say... "OMG get a life!" to every adult that plays runescape?
is a life just working all day.. eating... and going to the bathroom?
I would personanally hate that life! adults have about 3 hours of free time with nothing to do while at home. playing an mmorpg would help pass the time.
And there is a chat blocker too! if someone goes around insulting you... just turn public chat to friends or off and put private chat to friends or off. some thing with accept aid.
the reason i would never play WoW is that it is addicting... my grades would get low... and i would fail school. i play runescape becuase it is not as addicting, but still impressive for a java game.
Runescape has helped me in school ALOT. I can now type a word almost every second thanks to the typing and i get A's in keyboarding class.. i get A's in math because of adding and subracting HUGE profits of money or exp. and i have lots of good friends. i play about 30 minutes a day... sometimes an hour.
Try the members version of it and then see how its like and you might agree with me.
If you did what ltcolonelarcher said on the front of this topic and you still don't like runescape... thats fine with me.
Oh and runescape has no voices so i have gotten much better at grammar and spelling. That means i get A's in language arts and literature.
(TRUE STORY) Guess what? The makers of Runescape are multi-millionaires!! If you look under young rich people in the BBC news... you will see Andrew Gower and Pual Gower... the makers of runescape... also brothers.
IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY TO ME THEN DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL!
No caps.
