Based on my diary from 2006 and my 2006 diary, I'm able to confirm that I walked my first steps in Gielinor - RuneScape's setting - on the 29th of April that year. The younger Lottie wrote about how OSRS Gold 'seemed pretty good with its unique map but then she went on a argument about how she could not locate the final episode from Neon Genesis Evangelion on what I'm guessing was a legal website. I wonder what she would have written if she knew RuneScape would be a regular fixture for her game library.
Reading through old diaries was a journey into my personal RuneScape background; I recorded the achievements of my level, as well as new experiences and discoveries, like my first visit to Varrock. I was aware of my weak combat proficiency, and terrified of being killed by the hands of monsters far more powerful than me, I opted to follow the beaten paths - surely this would keep me safe from the beasts lurking in the unknown regions.
In actual, a decision which backfired when I arrived at the city's southern gates and came across the dark wizards who remain in the vicinity. (Really can you not help but wonder what the pay of those Varrock guards get paid). ...) After I got my fill of Varrock I meticulously planned my departure in hopes of avoiding another murderous surprise, only to suffer an near-death encounter with one of the highwaymen near Port Sarim.
Delving deeper I found Pest Control strategies and how I discovered about RuneScape's legendary glitch, The Falador Massacre. The 5th of June, 2006 And Cursed You had just celebrated becoming the first player to reach Level 99 Construction with a party in his own house owned by his players.
Lag, howeverwas able to get him to expel everyone and then, after leaving, the players who had been inside the combat ring discovered that they could, due to an error that was not known in the construction skill code, attack anyone despite being outside of the dedicated PvP area. Since their victims couldn't retaliate and the ensuing carnage went down into RuneScape history.
There were even notes on my bow string that ran money-making plans that were stapled onto the page. To summarize that, I spent a lot of time running between the flax field, spinning wheel, and the bank of Seers' Village in complete monotony, then continuing until I was able to successfully reprogram my brain to enjoy having enjoyable. The outcome was a summer practicing my Construction skill - worth it.
It's interesting to consider the diverse playstyles I've engaged over the years. from running boss runs to running a roleplaying clan and hours of learning in order to achieve an exact task.
Now I prefer to slow down my game, avoiding anything that can increase my XP base with Buy RuneScape Gold, which allows me to take pleasure in the long haul to level up. I like to read when doing this - it's surprisingly peaceful to listen to the clink of my pickaxe or mattock to be a background sound.
