Okay, so I've been inactive from RS for..literally..years. I want to get back into it but I don't even know where to start. Here are my stats right now (I know, I know. They're sad)

Does anyone have any pointers on where I should start? Preferably an area that's a bit new to the game that I can do at my level.

What skills/activities did you generally enjoy before you left? We could use that to help you build from there.

Also, have to say Farming just because :)

Try some hunter, once you get to Swamp lizards it actually becomes fun, I thought.

Well I dunno if you've found out yet, but you quit when they removed free trade and such to deal with the botting/rwit problem. Compare it to today after this amount of time with free trade back, you wouldn't even know there was a problem in 2007. That's the first thing you should probably know (and the current hot topic).

You should start by putting Runescape completely out of your mind. Oh wait...you want to get back INTO it. Can't help ya there. I would just say don't. Unless you REALLY want to.

^ What Warren said, too.

Farming and Questing are my suggestions, quest's are a good incentive to level up skills.
Maybe try working for a "milestone quest" like recipe for disaster?

You might spend some time doing the Shattered Heart diversion and distraction. That'll get you trying out a variety of skills and maybe one of them will grab your interest.

do slayer and collect seeds, herbs, charms, etc etc etc. use them to train other skills. kill many birds with 1 boring task, and you get some new items for slaying too.

also do the Fremenick Trials quest line. you'll open up your own kingdom and have your prince charming in... well just a prince.
