      RS is neither dull nor slow. Go fight something!!!!! or smith something, or mine something or.....The list goes on. My OH is rubbish at quests so I do them for him

        Nor mine. That's the trouble when you both have online addictions

          I don't really play it anymore and you're right, Runescape can be dull but it can also be exciting. In the past I've gone into the wilderness with my heart hammering ten to the dozen, on the phone to my brother and both of us ready to run or log out as we looked for dots on the map that signified another player coming to kill us (yes, I'm a chicken!)! Those days are gone but the wilderness still isn't safe and there are specific worlds where you can kill or be killed by other people (I don't go there ). There are some places on the map and quests you can do that are still just as scary despite it being a game!

          There is lots to the game and it takes a while to get into but if you stick at it for a while, once you get into it, it can be very addictive. Unlike wow which can take 20 minutes just travelling from one area to another you can just pop on and have 10 minutes playing (though you may want to play for longer!). If you're the slightest bit competetive you may well find yourself spending "just another 5 minutes" making bows or amulets or fishing or cooking or one of the many skills in the game as you are quite close to your next level . Again unlike wow, you can either play the whole game solo or with others and you can do anything in the game that you want to as skills aren't capped and linked to combat levels. And it's free (though limited if you're not a member) but even membership is a fraction of of the price other online games.

          The runescape forums (the adult ones) are full of players that have gone from rs to wow (me included) and then after wow has fizzled, go back to rs.

          Of course, it's not for everyone

            The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

            Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

                            I have been corrected by Bahehemoth. Apparently he has in fact been playing for 22 months. Still that's quite alot less than 7 years

                              Yeah, yeah! Because I rarely play, every time I do there has been tons of new things added (excuses ) . He probably knows ten times more than I do!
