    The reason why I play RuneScape is to go back in time being young in my 14s how life was care free.. being excited to play after school with my friends and friends I made online we would literally chat outside the Lumbridge cast. I remember how my sister use to play this also.. after her passing away from cancer... I just can’t let this game go.. the lumbridge area just hits me hella hard because that’s where my sister and I would be fighting cows, goblins.. i just can’t seem to let this game go :( it’s comforting to know part of my childhood is just a simple keyboard log in 😞

    I was an introvert all through junior school and tbh.. a heck of a lot of my childhood was screwed.. RuneScape was what made at least some part of my childhood great. from falling to doubling money scams to fishing lobsters at Karamja to buying my first ever Black scimitar from the swords shop at alkharid to peaking through the Taverly gate wondering how great the members' worlds are... the list goes on and on.. I don't just love RuneScape, I breathe and adore RuneScape. it's my childhood and I'm forever grateful to the Gower brothers for creating this awesome game.

I only got an hour of play time per day, and my mom would time me. I would wake up at 2 or 3 am while my mom was asleep and mine rocks at Varrock. What a good feeling.

It's not the same now, but I just can't quit. I may stop playing for a couple of years at a time, but I can't stop myself from coming back. I've been playing on and off for over 15 years now...

    I started playing again last year after having not touched RuneScape in over a decade. I built an account my pre-teen self never even thought possible, but I got bored with standing at the GE performing the same actions over and over again to skill and turn a profit. I decided that I wanted to try my own spin on the iron man deal: it can only use whatever it can make (outside of items that cannot be created by a player, in that case it must be obtained as a drop or found in the world) and interact with NPCs only as they relate to quests. It's been a breath of fresh air and I've had more fun with that account than I've had with my main in a long time.

    It's hard to argue against the "it's just a break rule" when I took a 4.5 year break and ended it a month ago.

    Runescape is a lot like DnD in that way. The combat, the stats... they matter to some people, but that's not what keeps a game alive this long. It's about the stories that you and your friends create together.

    I've also wondered for a long time what the draw is that keeps you coming back.
    I'm currently a 27 year old adult man with 3 Children. A home purchase in progress and interests in various activities (biking, working out, snowboarding etc.) And I find myself watching youtube videos on a game that I haven't played in something like 8 or 9 years.
    My life was pretty fucking boring as a kid not much to do at all in my home and now as an adult I can see that I'm an extremely goal oriented person who enjoys the grind. I'm constantly striving to improve in so many different areas in my life. Whether it be as a Father as a partner. Financially, Physically. I have an almost obsession with self improvement and the development of "skills."
    Its my belief that runescape was an outlet for that drive in me. That drive and hunger for improvement while I was living in a world that didn't give me much opportunity to fully explore it.
    The question you asked here really is a legitimate question that needs asking. Among many others.

    Played this game for years on OSRS but had to quit when I realized I'm wasting my time grinding on that game. Still addicted to video games and unable to get myself to do productive stuff as consistently as I want to, but I'm not so hardcore invest as I was with runescape.

      I think we all realized this. I started playing this back in middle school. That was 2003-2004. Haven't touched it in a year. As you say, I'm still into video games, but ladies and money take most of my time. No regrets my friend.
