Strange question...

Braaron · **Posted:** October 2nd, 2007, 7:02 pm

If everyone in the world died that has never played runescape, what do you think society would be like?
I know this is a strange question, but im curious.
What role do you think you would play in society if high lvl playes were as they were in real life?

Plz share...

Pardon my frankness, but the world would be full of noobs.

I'd hurl myself off a cliff. God help the world if that happened.

No no no NO!

I wouldn't want that at all. A lot of the RuneScape society are immature 10 year olds, to be honest. Also, I get mad when people say those acronyms in real life. "K : Kay, JK : Jay Kay, JC : Jay Sea, IRL : I AR EL, IDK : I Dee Kay" Uh it just annoys me. :oops:

And I bet I'd hear them a lot more.

If higher levels had more authority than lower levels? Ugh. A lot of the higher levels are just as immature as lower. Wow you're level 123 from pest control, you should be mayor of our city even though your a stupid 8 year old.

:oops:

Everything you just said is exactly what I was going to say.

If you're a higher level, it doesn't give you any type of authority, at all. It just gives you a better chance against monsters.

Like you said, Warren. I'd hate to hear all that too.

This question is going to get a lot of comments.

The world would be scary.... :shock:

And how would you like some 10 year old lvl 126 being incharge of this country, what about the top 10 players??? GULP

I doubt a 10 year old will have the mentality to get 126 combat.

But yeah, I don't think Runescape will be talked about too much unless the people knew that everyone else played.

I pretty much would say that people who earn a lot are much like high levels on RD. Most People seem to think because they rake in 50k a year it makes them a better person than someone on half that. Well I guess it does make them a better person, in the eyes of the taxman.

Humans would never breed, and would die off within 10 years.

You'd be surprised. Kids are getting to the point where they're becoming quite savvy with games and technology. Since Runescape isn't TOO hard to figure out, I don't see why not.

I'm an agreement with that.

Utter. Chaos.

I know freshmen with the maturity level of a 5 year old who talk about Runescape all the time.

Not to mention the number of guys would outnumber the number of girls by probably more than a bit. There'd also be scattered adults here and there while the majority of the world were teenagers.

I like the world as it is.

I'd probably be extremely annoyed with the world, but I know a lot of my friends play/have played RuneScape so at least I've have people to rant with

Chris · **Posted:** October 3rd, 2007, 2:08 pm

There is one thing I know.

I'd be dead.

Just because runescape easy to figure out doesn't make getting a 99 skill any easier. Even fletching takes a lot of patience, which generally, unless they've been playing games for a very long time, 10 year olds do not have. Prayer also takes up a lot of money, how many 10 year olds on runescape have no money problems and the ability to get multiple 99 skills? I wouldn't expect as many as you seem to suggest, though I suppose you'd actually have to experience powertraining to that extent that to understand.
