NH XD Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Hello guys, I'm curious as to see the responses of others in respect to the question posed; Has playing RuneScape changed you as a person? If so please put examples of how, and if you see them as negatives or positives towards you as a person. I honestly think playing RuneScape has changed me as a person, Yes OK I may have missed out on a few things in my younger years of childhood ages 10-16, but If I'm honest it's actually helped me with a lot of things such as spelling, typing, maths and in the simplest of forms, merchanting, friendship, leadership, teamwork and as funny as it may sound if I could think of one quote it would be; "Never trust someone that you don't know. Even when you think you can trust someone, they could always go back on their word if their desire for what you have is big enough. Looking for responsible replies, Please refrain from +1's. ~Chris
TJ Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 It made me a nerd. And has ruined many friends and family relationships. But it's okay, because i'm cool on runescape.
Low Bridd Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Def improved typing and spelling as well as common sense and general computer info.
Leah Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Honestly, I say it has had positive and negative impact on me.The negatives would be somewhat of a nerd mentality. I never chose it over my friends but definitely spent my time thinking about it in middle school. I sometimes lacked on homework cause I would be clanning right when I got home until bedtime haha. The main positive would probably be math and economic tips. I learned what flipping was and have used it in real life. (Buy low sell high) Also, learning investing. It's weird but when I go to a store for something I want and I know it'll go on sale I think of investments and waiting it out: price crashes and supply and demand haha. Another positive would be follow through with goals. I've learned that if I really want something I'll need to follow through with it and set short and long term goals. The journey to the goal can be long but worth it. (99's) Nice topic :P Made me think if I was really wasting my time. But I guess its a mixture haha.
Dizzy Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Distracted from social life a little bit, I learned that your voice eventually gets deeper and that the internet is full of assholes, but they don't affect a lot of people. I also learned that it's not worth spending money on a video game
k or as i Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I learned that if this addiction carrys I'm going to be a nerd so I quit

Uaex-Ali Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Biggest impact was teaching me how to type 138 words per minute, grammar and language. Also taught me if you're paying to have fun then you're not really putting your money to waste. #StakeAddict :P

Mikitka Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 I agree with most of these responses, it definitely gave me the ability to type extremely fast! And that is a very valuable skill in these times. Oh and it gave me a huge dick
Luke Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 I learned some discipline, I learned some communication, but mostly I learned a lot about leadership. Was captain of my hockey team while leading FOE and a youth group so RS was the best place to practice some leadership stuff without real-world consequences
Luke Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 just being able to type really quick also yes, super useful for uni lol started a 6 page paper at 130 am was done by 230
