I will never forget the day I logged onto Runescape and everything was different. After a 6 month break from the game, I logged onto a hideous, alien world. The players would laugh if you asked what an item did, or how much something cost. You would get flamed for selling something for the wrong price. You would get scammed out of 200k by someone and then they wouldn't even have the decency to stay logged in after they did it. This world was scary. This world was evil. This world wasn't Runescape. This world was... different.
I also remember all of the good things, however. Like when I worked so hard to buy my Mithril Plate and Legs, and promptly died with them in the wilderness. And when you would see skillers with santas and masks who weren't getting verbally abused by jealous noobs. And when the most popular names ever were "Noob 1934827" or "Pked You0504". When you would getting attacked by any sort of Malicious NPC in a multi-combat area, and everyone around you would rush to help you instead of laughing and waiting for your drops.
And the last and most precious memory I have still held in my heart, is Runescape when it was really Runescape. Not a majority of the players scamming you, flaming you, and being total dicks in general. Runescape when it was good and pure. What once was Runescape, The Massive Online Adventure Game. In loving memory of Runescape. <3 If you love the real Runescape as much as I do, you'll sign your name here and tell us what is really keeping you going, keeping you playing instead of quitting. Or if you've quit, tell us why. Thank you.
