This. I suck at time management and lack sufficient common sense for survival but hey, I enjoy what I do. I play RS for leisure and I have a social life as well which makes me broke and more inactive than half the council. Yeah, why waste your life trying to be successful, just enjoy it. --------------------  [05:42] <+WG_Keanu> I think I got a semi just looking at the pic [05:42] <%kat> same | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

You wouldn't be able to keep yourself entertained for that long without RS with nothing to do. -------------------- | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

 IRC Nickname: His Lordship Group: Founder Posts: 6029 Member No.: 1 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 129 | Runescape has drawn me away from shiver chunk of the rest of my life, but I do not regret it. Yes, my social life and school grades took a hit, but I was learning many important skills, namely leadership, web design, advertising, html, world cultures, time zone, time management, friendship building skills, and so many other things. I am a better person for being in wg. If it was just runescape then yes, I would regret --------------------  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| IRC Nickname: Fire Lion Sword Group: Emeritus Posts: 1189 Member No.: 103 Joined: January 4, 2008 Total Events Attended: 3 | Not at all. I learned some good lessons from RS: patience, caution, foresight, etc. Although, a lot of those values were there from the beginning, my experiences in RS helped build on them. The years I spent on RS would have probably been "better" had I done other, more productive things... but I know there are some people that will never know the crap we've been through... and, in my opinion, that gives us a certain advantage of our own in life. -------------------- --------- 獅の炎 ----------  ----------- 忍☯者 ----------- | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

But without experiencing WG I probably wouldn't be the same person today, and I f'in like it being me.  --------------------  London RL Meeting attendee - Paris RL meeting attendee Joined WG in October 2005 - Original DG - Ex-Raid Leader Proud Council Member from October 21st 2007 to May 19th 2008 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| IRC Nickname: {Rene} Group: Guest Posts: 838 Member No.: 267 Joined: February 25, 2008 Total Events Attended: 55 | Do I regret finding out about RuneScape? No, not really. As said before it helped mature me as a person and it did help me gain some skills. Maybe I my life could have been better without finding out about RuneScape, but at the same time it might have turned for the worse as well. I'm happy with where my life is at the moment and the direction it's headed. --------------------  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| IRC Nickname: Rodney75 Group: Council Posts: 1683 Member No.: 2109 Joined: October 29, 2009 Total Events Attended: 154 | Everyone who said yes always backs it up with: "So i could do more in real life" "learned guitar" etc etc. Well, I did them things along side playing runescape. Runescape is just there for your spare time when nothing else is happening. All those who wished they had done more, shouldn't have put in the hours they did. I learned guitar, played in multiple teams, got good grades etc etc whilst I had an account - and still managed good levels. And on top of this, I met some very interesting characters and made some good friends over the years. So I don't see the problem, of course I don't regret it. It was a side hobby, and anyway, back in the day I made over £100 selling gold lol  --------------------  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

 IRC Nickname: Tnuac Group: Emeritus Posts: 1806 Member No.: 51 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 58 | Why regret something you've done in the past? You should look back and enjoy the good times. I started RS in 2002, and i've had so many good times from it, both in the game and with the people i've met through it, and that's literally 100's of people. I didn't let it take over my life, had a great time in RL alongside it. Learnt so many skills from being in clans. Its actually going to stick with me for the rest of my life: leadership, diplomacy, decision-making, sorting heated arguments, appreciating the differences deep down between people. Its been an invaluable experience. During uni term times, i never play RS. I party it up with friends, learn to cook, breakdance for cash, and work towards getting a degree. And when i come back, i look forward to playing RS again when i'm not out with mates or family. Its a perfect filler. If you regret doing something, stop. If you can't stop, you clearly don't regret it. -------------------- ~Aetas: carpe diem quam minimum credula postero~ "Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow"  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

 IRC Nickname: Gibble00 Group: Emeritus Posts: 775 Member No.: 100 Joined: January 3, 2008 Total Events Attended: 9 | As someone who quit playing RS you might think that would regret all the time that I put into it, much more than any other video game or hobby of mine; however, even though I didn't really maintain any of my strong online friendships, but I still think that it was worth it. I had a really fun time with WG and the people in it. RS was the only MMORPG I ever played and I think it was fun to be immersed in that kind of experience for a while. I think there are some real-world things you learn from a game like this. I was the leader of DG for a while and there are some sort of people-management skills you get from working with an internet forum like this with people of all sorts. The game itself teaches you some intense time managements skills (especially when balancing with RL stuff); you want to gain a few levels before a war, you work out some experience gains per hour, what you need to do it, etc. etc. I think I'm good with time management, I stay busy, I get a lot of studying done quickly compared to my friends, I go out, and I have thought about how it may relate back to the kind of time management I learned from playing RS. --------------------  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
