Most 'new accounts' are likely to be alt accounts of current players or ones of old players returning to the game. I'm not too confident we'll ever be seeing any truly 'new' players starting their adventures as we used to. You might get the odd one, but they'll be quite rare.

A lot of factors play into that too - the aged community, the constant grind and repetive nature of the game, little variation in the content and it seems to be more and more focussed on supporting itself as a 'single player' experience. Or at least that's how many who still play tend to lean towards.

Anyone ever had someone go up to you, follow you, request help or chat like you used to years back? Or start a conversation that doesnt devolve into deragotary bs and 'memespeak'? Heck have any of you said or received a hello from someone just while walking about, doing your daily scaping thing?

It happens sure, just nowhere near what it was or could be.

I completely agree with you Praeteriti! A lot of regulars notice me in my home-world 88 and are super friendly. If I'm not wearing my rares most people walk past me, if I'm rocking my rares I notice people will be a lot more talkative or just end up trying to lure me. -_-

I remember when randoms would start following you trying to be obnoxious or asking for free stuff hahaha. I miss those days. I'm grateful for the friends I have met so far in-game and on the forums though. <3 _.•´¯`•._.•´¯`•.* D E L A Y *.•´¯`•._.•´¯`•._

Pasmo, is the OSRS community a lot more open/friendly compared to RS3?

I'm not sure I would say a lot. I would say people are more likely to talk, based on my experience. You're also just more apt to run into people, because not everyone is in one location (priff).
