Runescape helped my math and typing skills after years of trading before the grand exchange.
Smelting ore got me interested in how different metals are made and and how various metal products are formed. A family friend offered me my first ( part time ) job after i asked them questions on how the mill operated and i began working at a steel mill as part of the maintenance crew for a year, watching people make real steel while i swept up limestone dust and pet coke (not the drink)

Runescape will forever have a place in me because I have had very good memories and enjoyment of this MMO.

RuneScape has probably been most important game I've ever played since I started eleven years ago. I would not be the same person without it. It's taught me many life skills such as planning tasks out, saving money to buy better things, economics, dealing with people and even little bits of educational things like how bronze is made of copper and tin, and that coal is used to turn iron into steel long before I ever took any chemistry and earth science classes in middle and high school. More recently with the Sixth Age storylines, I've learned a good bit about philosophy.

RuneScape has also taught me a fair bit about human psychology just by watching to see how people react to updates. (No, I don't mean that in an insulting way.) On the greater scale, the game has shed more light for me on the life cycle of video games and how all business decisions have consequences. Indie Game Developer, Worldbuilder

I'd like to thank Jagex for making me win a 400m Polypore stake when the other guy smuggled a Shield. Kappa
In all seriousness though Runescape has granted me loads of friends, because back then I wasn't as social as I was online. There are still some friends from 2006 who still play with me and it warms my heart.
