I honestly think you shouldn't worry about planning on how to play runescape after graduation anyway. Planning for runescape is getting overblown. When you get out of college, things just falls into place, although all the new changes will probably distract you from runescape for a while.

Yea as soon as I moved into my new apartment and started my job there were a lot of new things I had to get used to doing and barely had any free time at all. Once I got my new routine down though I was able to pick up having more free time. You don't really need to plan out your "runescape time." You'll just spend your free time in your desired way once you settle down with your new routine. And thx =)

I kinda quit in uni for engring after most of my rs friends quit during my freshmen yr i then started getting more social soph yr and kinda stayed away from rs cuz I was worried I'd start playing it way too much again, even though I don't regret the time I've put into rs, was something to do to kill time really. freshmen yr I was able to keep intact with rs since a friend of mine was keeping me informed about it which was nice. soph yr I had some friends from rotsing who kept me up to date. Funny to say actually, I taught one of my friends rots who only lived 2 miles from me apparently and he felt like celebrating since he was really happy and that was the first time I drank in uni anddddd that's where I completely lost touch with rs until now. Though mostly for me if I play rs or not mostly revolves around if friends are playing rs or not tbh, like I've come back a few times to chill with some friends, and w/e I get time to play I make sure to try to quit with at least 700M cash after all so it's easy just to jump into content (Don't have the T92s now I r a noob now).

Though honestly don't be afraid to quit Runescape if you don't find the time. When I felt like RuneScape could be holding me back the game did not feel quite as fun. Now that I'm playing it when I feel like it (mostly afk skilling so far) it feels a lot fresher.

Ah good point 80years503, and I do plan to just do that in the future. It will be a gradual process though because stopping suddenly just doesn't work and is likely to lead to withdrawals. I also keep up with my clanmates every week.

Yeah, what I did almost a year ago was just gradually fade out of existence. I only talk to around 2 or 3 friends I've made from RS nowadays, and I don't think anyone else remembers me anymore.

I'm having a very fun time with other games and IRL, and working hard to get into graduate school right now. I wish to land into a decent job/internship this summer as well.

Playing RS just felt so extremely routine. When I went after my goals I felt I needed to play RS every single day, for at least a few hours, in order to make some progress. I'm glad I quit RS completely now, to be honest. None of the achievements I got even mean anything to me anymore.

Also hey! I posted here a while back about this too. It's interesting to see how times have changed.

I couldn't/can't. Most of my time is divided between work and taking care of my niece. When I actually have a moment of free time, I tend to divide it between console gaming, catching up on the shows I've missed, or going out to something like a movie.

It sucks to admit it, but I'll probably never be able to play this game in the same way that I used to. One login every few months is about all I have time for nowadays.

Well, don't quit just to quit. I meant more so for me I kinda just stopped playing and didn't really notice I stopped playing. Though yeah for me same, I've never really lost contact with my clan either, but that wasn't really playing for me.
