i think its addictive because it starts off easy to level, and then gets harder. you want to just get to the next level, which takes longer and longer

Nothing.Runescape is boring 
I think the reason for me at least for why it was so addictive and hard to let go of was because:
1. Fun
2. Enjoyable to get friends and talk to them (not friends like irl friends, I mean just people you have added and say Hi to).
3. Striving to get 2k total and be the best. (2k total was always my goal, I made it to 1992)
4. Getting all stats 70+
5. Getting good drops and becoming rich.
So yea, owning everyone and getting rich kept me in!
/I made it to: 121/131 - All stats 70+ - 350m+ - 1992 total. Then sold my account for good!

I think that the game is addicting because of the constant grind to achieve you goals. When you want money you will work for the money for days or weeks until you purchase the item you want and as soon as you do you go for another one. The leveling system is also unique as that you can make your character whatever you want instead of picking a distinct class such as in most MMO's this gives you a wide variety to experiment and use.
I honestly don't know. Over the years, I've quit RS like 6 times. But I always find myself drawn back to it a few months later. Maybe it's due to the fact that many friends of mine play it or the skills or just the feeling you feel when you've accomplished something.
I'm trying to figure it out.

Same here, I've tried to quit many times, but I always find myself playing RS again.
It's weird.. Most games you play will get boring after a few weeks.. But RS always hangs in there.

Honestly, I really don't know. The game isn't even all that great, I often get completely fed up with it ..but yet I still play it.
