First, Yes I am here because you asked for replys.
Second, I am here because I like some of the mini games but not all, I refuse to kill anyone, mini game or not but--resent that I can't get the items from some of those games without killing someone. I won't even get my Ardy hard diary cape cause of the Castle Wars part. I know they don't lose anything in most of the games, I know it's ok with them or they wouldn't be in the game; I have lost too many people important to me and I don't like death--so I avoid killing, try to avoid dying.
Third, I found Runescape at the age of 50 after my first husband's death. This game helped me through my grief, through the bad times. RS has grown, become and is wonderful, I remember when withdrawing coin from the bank was 1 at a time, and I cheered when they got the 10 option. I wish the kids on the game would quit telling older people to get a life. With my bad knees, bad heart and a need to be near people-RS is wonderful for me and others. My reponse (cause I couldn't think of something even better) is: Where is your life, why aren't you outside using the youth you have?
Fourth, I like to play the game like life, not skilling too much, not too much combat (I can get my mind around combat with n.p.c.s,) just doing each day what I feel like and only occasionally working hard at a skill (usually in the last 10-15% before a level.)
Fifth, I have competed in Herd (clan) competiton in a private adult clan and seen how obsessive I can get competing with others, esp ones I know. I don't advise long competitions like the Herd has had (48hrs) as it can ruin people's health to not sleep for that long and just sit and click. I would advise longer ones even less. I know RS doesn't have them but clans do.
I have probably talked enough here, Best wishes and I do like most of the polls, but didn't like the player suggested one where there were no decent answers, I couldn't answer any of them, none of the answers were even funny ones.
