How have you changed?

[Life of Sin]

How have you changed since joining sythe? How has it affected parts of your life? Do you regret it? Was it the best decision of your life? What?

Thought I'd put in a bit of input from myself.

Personally, I'd say that one major difference I've noticed is my language, and writing skills. I've become far more used to using proper grammar than I was previously, and call me pathetic if you want, but I like that.

Also, I am extremely glad that I joined sythe, and that I made the good choice of PMing Gohan when I first joined to ask how I could become a part of the community, to which he replied with a link to the IRC, which I've become a part of over the past year.

I have met a lot of new and friendly people, and I have also seen a change in my writing styles.

 

Sythe has taught me a lot of stuff.

The most important, respecting people and helping them.

When I first joined, I pretty much only stayed in my little hole in the Other Characters > Levels: 3-59 section selling rare names. Eventually I ventured beyond that area and came to find out that the community was actually very interesting. I eventually began posting around in the other sections (Off Top, Rs General, etc.), and it's just become a habit now to browse around all sections

Doesnt effect my life at all.. just a forum to chat about something I used to play.

Oh wow,

Sythe changed me a lot. When I first came, I was so naive and gullible; I had no idea about scams, people were pretty much taking advantage of me and it was pretty rough.

I stepped away from Sythe after a while, but once I came back, my perception of Market industry has completely changed; I saw 98% of scams and recently, I have gotten even better at my market skills (picking out people, negotiating, etc).

I honestly believe that Sythe also helped me with dealing with people; I was somewhat of an outcast all my life and dealt with everything quite poorly. However, with this forum I really feel even talking to people online (albeit not face-to-face) is still a huge social skill that I'm still learning even till this day.

I am now addicted to Sythe, I don't do anything else but Sythe most of the day, if I'm not Sything, I'm usually with my girlfriend, school, friends, eating, sleeping, it's not regretful, because I'm making decent money that I am saving up for a car, and I think Sythe is going to help me

I'd say, that I'm alot more learned in the various subjects that Sythe has to offer.
I can also safely say that my typing and such has improved over time.

 

[Bubba Fuzz]

Sythe has over all been beneficial for me personally. I've learned a lot about trading online and some business practice.

 

I've changed a lot since I joined. I've made some nice friends, improved my grammatical skills, know more about scams and how to avoid them. There's probably a lot more, but I just can't remember them as of right now.

 

[WeRnIE]

Made new friends, improved my grammar and lots of other things.

 

- I've made tons of good friends.
- Learned about who to trade with and who not to trade with.

Well, I joined Sythe when I was 13 and immature and stupid, to be honest. It wasn't until after I had resigned from the staff and gotten past the major fights with them that I started to actually started presenting ideas in professional ways. I've really just changed as much as a 13 year old to an 18 year old can.

Sythe changed my view of runescape. Now i see gold as real life money, ie if i were to lose 40m id be looking at it is if i had lost $16 but i've also learnt from this how i can make myself a nice small amount of money every week just running afew programs on my pc to help me save up for things to buy irl like i bought a new pc 5 months ago from 80% of the money i made online.

Damn well, I'm not sure exactly how I was in the beginning of Sythe. Back in '08 I think I created a Sythe account to buy a runescape account and got scammed like twice lol. Bad times. I've no doubt matured and become more smart and reasonable. Also, wolf gang.

 

[mimario]

i havent changed a bit, maybe because I almost just joined

 

[Zerkerfist]

Well, the first change I noticed when I joined Sythe was how my RS bank accounts were beginning to grow after I started selling upgrades But over just a mere couple of months, I have really come to love this forum and I browse it daily, often neglecting my RS accounts to hang out on Sythe instead I have met some great people here and been involved in some very stimulating discussions aswell. Not to mention, it is good practice for writing, spelling, and typing, which I can apply to my schoolwork and other aspects of my life.

All in all, Sythe has been a very positive experience for me and I am very glad to have found this online community. I am looking forward to many more positive experiences in the future

 

I wouldn't say Sythe has changed me all that much but I really have began to understand the market and userbase of Sythe. It really would take a long time to type it out but essentially it's a pecking order of trust where skewed views of post count = trust and spammers doing their best to raise post count as quickly as possible.

It maybe made me write properly or at least try it I guess haha but other than that it had no other effects I think.
