Played it when I was like 9 years old, when it was brand new. Played up like 600 dollars on my dads 56k, then I got killed by some damn scorpion when I was carrying ****loads of coal that I had been clicking on rocks for weeks to get. I started crying, and have never touched it since

Hahahahaha! Oh man, I'm tempted to play it already.
I played it for a year and a half... great times... I was a member long enough to do some beta testing of RS2, but I got bored, I wish I had free membership, then I could explore the world.
I wouldn't touch that vile scum with a six-foot pole.

You click, then click, then click then aqquire one unit of coal, then someone says 'hey noob that was my coal, **** you' then you click, then you click and then you sell the coal and realise what a huge waste of time it all was.

I played it for 2-3 years I think, but I tired. I tried to start again, to make a business on bread making/selling, just because I wanted to do that as a "job", but I dont think anyone cared, they were just running around in their rune armor and picking more of that ore. It just wasnt realistic, mine workers with armor? NO! And people making miles of rows with fire? NO!!! AND PEOPLE SHOUTING "but cole or press 77777777777777 plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"?!? NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to see a MMORPG with no fantasy elements, but with the same concept as Runescape and with more players actually knowing something about something and not wearing the heaviest armor while making dinner. It would be so good, and why not license the fighting system from Mount & Blade?

Ahhh, a Runescape thread, i was just playing that a bit a few days ago. I've only played for maybe a month in total, and can't say i find the game very fun for long. It should be renamed "clickers quest". *click on ore*...*click on ore again*...*once full return and dump at bank*...*repeat*... I played it one night and watched this guy making coal runs for about an hour, then i went to bed and got on 10hours later, and there he was...STILL gathering his damn coal. I like the trade skills, but combat couldn't be lamer (just as involved and intense as mining coal). That and money is a bit easy to make, as after my third day of playing i had discovered a scheme and had made over 1mil gold in 2 days at level 5 with a measly 40 total skills...enough to buy full rune 6 or 7 times over. *yawn* Then i started a pizza production business and had 15 or 16 workers which was rather fun for a while...until you realize that money is worthless and thus, so is running a business with profit in mind.

How did you make 1 mill in 2 days? Did you merchant or something, because Even though I've played for 1 and a half years I cant make 1 mill in 2 days
BTW I think the game is ok it just gets boring in an hour or so. I just play runescape for an hour then play M&B then play rs and do a bit of hw while im at it. That way gaming is fun
EDIT: woops this is old

I want to know how! ANd the pizza buisness sounds cool, I'm surprised you didn't end it when everyone decided to go on vacation or questing.
Well, the trick is pretty simple. After having discovered it i found that there are a few people that do the same thing...so there's a little bit of competition. Basically, i'm a coal and iron merchant. If you go to the bank in Fallador you'll find tons of people selling coal due to its close proximity to the miners guild. Also, there's a popular iron mine just south of there as well. Most people will sell the coal for 100-120gold per unit, especially if you're in a smaller server (economy seems to vary depending on the server population). People tend to sell iron for around 40gold per. So just buy everyone's coal and iron. Now, go to one of those really populated servers with around 2000 people, and you can easily sell that same coal for 180-200per, and get 100g per for the iron. The best part about this strategy, is that after making my million i found that i didn't have to waste hardly any time at all trying to find someone to sell coal. Just go about your business and do whatever, and when you stop at a bank and someone is selling coal or iron(which is quite often), buy it! No time wasted at all, so you can easily make around 50k profit in a day only spending about 5min working on it. Now as far as the pizza business goes, basically what i do is get people to gather the ingredients for me, and i make and sell them. People don't have to be on all the time or all at once or anything, i just place an order, and they deliver the goods in the next couple of days. After the first couple of days after startup, i get constant deliveries and never worry about running out of ingredients (actually, i have far to many now...having 3k grain and 1k anchovies could keep me cooking for a loooong time ). I can easily get people to work cheap, and thus end up paying out around 40-50 gold in ingredients for what i can produce in 15 seconds and turn around and sell for 350+ gold. And since anchovie pizzas are the absolute best non-member food, they're quite valuable and can be sold for even more than that with ease. Then factor in that nobody ever makes them (they tend to focus on lesser, much easier to produce foods like lobsters, because they dont' have employees doing all the gathering for them ) and you'll find the demand can never be satisfied.
