Oh, and since I always mined at the place in Rimmington, I would save my energy, the go attack one of the wizards, and run away. I thought I was cool. =\

well for one, i had nothing to be scammed off of.
-thought iron was "the best armor in the game"
-thought "noob" was a compliment
-didnt understand most of the game
-thought too literal hence didnt do well at first
-got mad because the game got to difficult on my first account so i made kiwikid25 who is now fairly good.

other than that taking on "the big monsters" in massive teams of my noobish friends from school.
(we would pile mid level monsters lol)

I recall that there were magical combat levels for not being a noob anymore. I remember first it was 50, then it went to 70. Anyone else remember that?

I remember one time I went to the Community Center, where there were several other RS players there, and I remember selling my Chef's Hat for 100gp. I was laughing my head off because of that, thinking "that that guy was such a noob to buy this for such a high price."

Oh, and I didn't use grammar like I do now. We were all like that. "hey r u da guy who i need 2 talk 2" and that being a question, but no punctuation. *Shudder Shudder*

Oh, and Warren, the reason why you remember those so well, is because those were all 1 week ago+

I thought Genie Lamps raised a level by 1. (Rare candy in Pokemon for reference)

My friend told me to follow him and I found it hard because I didn't know about the follow option. I just kept clicking wherever he was going.

Wearing Adamant armour at Level 70 combat and wondering why people were questioning me.

Attempted to kill someone because they wanted me to. Full Rune, Dragon Longsword.

Pking with my friend with me taking two anti poisons and a full set of lobsters. We were so happy when we pked a Dragon Dagger(p)

Sometimes I'd give anything to have those days back.

Indeed. Feels like all the fun is sucked out now.

No more adventuring new areas, no more high-quality questing... Just training these days. Meh.

Thought Jmods could go to 145cmb
never knew what noob meant
ran screaming maniac whenever I got attacked in wildys
thought that player mods could get you random events
mined and smithed between varrock and lumbridge
thought prayer was a waste of time

I remember when 100K was truly amazing and rare, when macros were rarer then they are now, and when rune came out. That was a LONG time ago.

I can remeber the first time I went into Al Kharid, and I thought I was lost, so I wanted to create another character, then I relised I would have to do the Cook's quest again, xD ...

I remeber back then though, that's just my favourite memory...
