Tip.It interviews Zezima

This is a really good interview and it makes total sense. Now I have more of a liking to Zezima. I like him now that I understand him.

Stupid rumours. Don't even say them, you'll give people ideas.


I never had an opinion on him before. I knew nothing of him or his situation, and even after reading that interview (managed to read that a 2 days ago, actually thought about posting it... there's also an interview with that N0valyfe person) I still don't have much to think.

From what I can read, he's just a normal player.

As I expected.

If he was a bot or a college dropout who sells his mom's organs on ebay to fund his runescape addiction... I'm sure Jagex would have done something already.

Stupid people spreading stupid rumours for no reason other than jealousy. Always bugged me.

I gained a lot more respect to him for doing that interview. It shot down a lot of rumours about who he is (being a girl, being several people who share the account, etc) but what I liked most was that he was just down to earth. I don't think anyone should put him down for being #1. He doesn't seem arrogant about it at all.

Sorry, but I for one question the authenticity of the interview itself.

IF it was real, the person claiming to be Zezima never denied that there is more than one person playing the same character.

If he is really working on all of those degrees, there is no way someone can have all that time to play RS.

The thing that really stands out to me is this: He claims he was the first player to reach 99 Slayer. That is a lie. IAMWILDMAN was the first one. I tracked that skill from when it came out to see who would be the first one.

I found that part a little strange as well but I think he must have meant to say Smithing, because according to his table he was 20th to reach 99 in Slayer.
Anyway I found it interesting, I was glad I read it. Didn't really change the way I thought about him though. The thing about the private messages was truly sad, I really felt sorry for him while reading that part.

The context of what he says implies that is a rumour. But you have a point, he never said no straight off. Would it really make a difference to you if you're questioning the authenticity of this interview anyway?

He said that he's doing a major, minor, and possibly another minor. From what I'm guessing, he is American. In American universities, typical under-graduates choose a major and minor. So, he is taking a normal courseload and a possible future minor. One big difference in uni is that you can fit your schedule around more easily. He may have a few days off each week or have a relatively comfortable schedule which allows him time to play.

As for 99 Slayer, if there are several other people who tracked their progress perhaps you can prove your point.

Maybe this will stop the constant noob talk that Zezima is infact 12 people? or that he has no life?

From what I heard the first person to reach 99 slayer was Oddball..
I liked whoever came up with the idea of interviewing him..
I have a much greater respect for him now..:P

My favorite thing is that he tells everything staight out. He never stopped working on a skill until it was 99. Especially RC he got it to lvl 41 in the first day and 61 or 62 in the 2nd :shock:

But he is a really straight forward guy. And very well grammerd :lol:
