I let most of my friends know. Some think i'm stupid for playing it, but all my friends are
really close so I know they're not gonna stop hanging out with me becuase of it.
I didn't tell my girlfriend for a long time till I found out that her dad played and made her play sometimes too. It was kindof funny. Up until the point where he started asking for free stuff.
Another kind of funny story, but I took summer school last year becuase my parents made me take a class I knew I'd hate, so I failed horribly so I re-took it in summer school. I saw some of the kids I knew from my school but I never talked to them there. Soon we all started talking. There were about 5 of us. They were those kids who are like "Oh yeah, I'm a punk rocker and I do drugs every other day." Those kinds of people. People who I never expected to play Runescape. Somehow we got on that topic (I think it was while we were working on the computers). One of the guys asked if anyones ever heard of Runescape. Litterally all 5 other guys were like "Yeah, I have an account on there." So I admitted too that I had an account. I told them my level (which was about 97 then) and they didn't believe me.

I told them to look me up and they did, they all freaked out...lol. One of the guy was one of the players from early Runescape, so he had a full H'ween set and I told him how much they were worth and he started playing again. Hehe.
