i don't think you're elite enough to judge if runescape is getting better or worse.

i think the opinions of maxed total players would be more relevant as they have played almost every aspect of the game.

Dumbest statement I've read all week.

Being a maxed total player doesn't mean you know everything about RuneScape and you have good opinions about the game.

Ok wise guy, does being f2p with low stats mean you know anything about runescape?

I think you've only played about 1% of the content in runescape to even make a statement about "glory days".

Seeing as your RS status is, "never played", I don't think you can really put the rest of us down. You can know a lot about Runescape from being low leveled. I've learned a lot about Runescape from listening to the Update.

Then I don't think you can rip people about their knowledge about runescape. Seeing how you have played little to none of the game I don't see how you can talk at all about the old days of runescape. I have played from 2004 about the time that runescape 2 came out. I know about the old days. I have over 100 days of playing time. (Not that my stats show it. I spent lot of time just hanging around tlaking with friends)

Let me tell you. Standing in a bank yelling "B lobs 300 ea" Over and over again was annoying but I would do anything to have it back. It remind me of my inosent times. Much better than my mind today. Let me tell you. Those horrid graphics and packed banks where the most fun times I have had playing runescape.

I've been playing RuneScape since 2005.

My apologies if I don't spend 6 hours every day grinding just so I have a few numbers on the hiscores /sarcasm

Neither post count nor level is equal to intelligence. Just because someone has been somewhere for a long time doesn't automatically make them smarter, nor does it allow them to be a better judge of what is "good" or not.

i completely agree with this statement. i think most veteran players would be ecstatic over a chance to play the good days of RS

Like I said, if you're low level clearly you haven't experienced enough.

Have you done these:

-Duo a dchain from kq and sell it for 22m, split it into two with your partner

-Barraged a full game of castlewars in ahrims and max mage

-Pk in mage bank in 2006-2007 with max mage and barrows armor

-or maybe you're a skiller, trained a bank-sitting skill to 99 before make-x

I doubt you have done any of that, but if you've done all, or at least 3 of that, I would say you do in fact have enough experience in the game to actually make a judgement.

That's simply nostalgia. Get with the times, and move on.

I never did lobbies, but I remember standing the Varrock general store, waiting desperately for a talisman to be for sale and then buying it before someone else did.

Isn't RSC still available for those who started in that version of the game before RS2 came out?

Runescape is changing, not declining. I liked the old Classic days best, cause that was back when I was a careless noob kid who just enjoyed everything. I've been quitting on several occasions over time because I thought the game had lost what made it so special to me. I still play, however, to test my own abilities to train skills fast and push myself to the limit without risking my health (which most real life activities would do on the level I play RuneScape).
Each person must just take the game for what it is and use it for entertainment or other purposes as much as possible.

so what you are saying is...unless somebody is low level, but maybe they still have played for 4,5, or even 6 years their opinions DO NOT MATTER BECAUSE OF THEIR LEVEL? oh, and THEY ARE ALSO NOT ALLOWED TO MAKE MAKE A JUDGEMENT???? Level means absolutely nothing. someone can be level 20, but have years of game time experience, by simply being in the game, witnessing updates, etc. although you yourself have not a **** bit of room to talk

I'd have to agree, experience points mean nothing in comparison to actually seeing the updates take place and see their effect on the world. Look colonelkfc, you're just kind of being a troll right now and I don't want to see Regnenth or any other people getting muted because you were trolling them into anger.

Let me regurgitate:

I don't think you need 2000 total in 2006 to do any of those, and it takes a duo of level 90s in veracs to kq anyway.

Also I'm not trolling if I'm giving an indifferent opinion.
