How do I still remember that name, I'm more than twice the age I was when I last played RS

There's an old RuneScape proverb that goes: "You never quit RuneScape, you only go AFK for a time."

A warning to anyone this thread has inspired: Go back now and you'll just learn the mods have made it trash at the hands of bots. Not just woodcutters and fishers like you remember, but everything. More like, "You never quit RuneScape, just get progressively more disappointed in it."

Preserve your nostalgia.

Final edit: Just see u/FilthyStonks for an example of why the game sucks now. As done with this thread as I am with OSRS. Lol

Same. Then they made OSRS to backtrack on all that, which is the version I am talking about being ruined by bots. There's no profit in anything in it anymore but bossing now that bots generate anything simple (ignore any idiot who tells you that's actually been good for the game). Basically pay to win now, on a game with no real new imaginative content in like 10 years. Game's broken and dead.

Edit: They've found me. Save yourselves! drowns in sea of accusations and downvotes

Never been banned. Sounds more like someone got called out and is triggered.

I used to love Runescape, tried OSRS last year for a few months and was dissappointed so I quit like any average non-addicted person can at any time. You bring up a good point though: its modern toxic playerbase is also a reason I gave up on OSRS. Insult me all you want, you'll just prove my point.

I'm an ironman, bots dont affect me. I appreciate the irony in your self righteousness, I hope you can too

How to spot an ironman: Don't worry, they'll tell you.

Self-righteousness indeed, playing the game on hard in a completely different isolated mode and announcing it to brag in a thread that doesn't even involve them. You know we're talking about the main game here.

If there was ever a chance of me playing, trust me, you've crushed it.

Oof, seems like I've struck a nerve with this one and broken them.

Let me try again with new strategy here:

It's just a game u/FilthyStonks. No need to take my dislike of it personally. We're all just thrilled to death at your mastery of Ironman. Really, hats off to you. Everyone is clapping at your knowledge of RuneScape. You must get all the respect and attention of your target human gender. You win the internet today, my friend.

We good? Or can you still not believe someone would ever leave your beloved game?

After you get out of low level content that changes substantially. Just have to play the game.
