It most certainly is NOT a dating site. :P
Never uses treasure hunter keys. Never buys runecoins or bonds. Never pays extra for 'Premier' status or passes. Never will.

I've learned that my expectations for the average person, which I had thought were low enough to trip over, are actually way too high. But on the flip side, the ones who manage to meet them are even more deserving of respect than I had originally believed.

Like many others have said typing speed.

Something else valuable was navigating some political environments. Not politics like government politics but more like in the work area or big teams. I love clans but with so many people there's always a little bit of drama as well as leadership opportunities. I made a lot of mistakes here and when it was time for the real deal I knew how to drive the right outcome.

to be patient during trades to prevent scams which lead to me avoiding getting the incorrect change at a business so I didn't get ripped off.

When I was younger, I always struggled to read and spell. I even had to take a during the day extra reading class with a few friends because they struggled as well. Runescape and other games helped drastically with me learning how to do both.

I also learned a lot of just general use things. So much so, that I cannot list them all. I know one thing that I remember though is this, my science teacher asked what made bronze metal and it ended up being copper and tin.

Another thing I remember in my 9th grade year in English. My teacher was asking us questions and we had to guess the word. Before I go further, just know that he was a terrible teacher. He thought everyone was dumb and had favorites and refused to help anyone who got behind.

When he asked questions, the first thing he said was "I don't think any of you will know this one." and he went to say the definition of an anvil. And I instantly answered and got it right. So it felt like I was smacking him across the face for the entire class after so many years of him looking down on everyone.
