Another nostalgia thread...

What's your earliest Runescape memory?

Mine was when I got my first 30k from killing cows and selling the hides, and also getting my first 100k and thinking I was being scammed because it said 100k instead of 100,000.

Feeling bad when I burned the bread on Tutorial Island.
Thinking it was odd that shrimp were in a freshwater pond.
Later thinking it was mean that we had to kill chickens in the magic tutorial.
Also thought mining/smithing was awesome right away.
Trying to get through the gate to Al Kharid without spending 10 gold: I thought you needed to wear a special cape, so I went out of my way to find a red one, but it didn't work.
Almost dying to a cow and thinking that was pretty odd.
Wondering if you could get goblin armor adjusted so you could wear it.
Leveling mining and smithing: 1) mine a full load of bronze/tin at the mine southeast of Varrock, 2) go to the furnace in Al Kharid and smelt it, 3) go to the forge in Varrock and smith it, 4) sell proceeds, 5) repeat.
Eventually upgraded to iron and felt very proud of myself.
Getting lost in Stormwind for two hours... wait! Wrong game!

LOL always was pissed that I couldn't wear the goblin armor and I asked around if anyone could make it so I could wear it.

Also, fuck Stormwind, Undercity is confusing as hell.

Friend of mine killing chickens and giving me their meat so that I could raise my cooking level to like level 20.

Wearing and carrying all of the stuff that my friend gave me, passing by Draynor and getting killed by the highway man, then freaking out because I died.

Thinking about it, my earliest memories of RuneScape are actually my first. I remember my friend CJ showing me (classic) in summer 2003 and us making my account together... I can remember going through the tutorial island in bits... there was a rat in a cage of sorts, a big ditch with rocks for the mining bit, and there was even a tutor who taught you about the wilderness in a place graphically similar to it

I have vague memories after that... one funny one comes to mind when I was in Lumbridge outside the castle wall. A guy 30 levels or so higher than me trades me and wants a bucket of milk. I happened to have one at the time so I put it up to offer and he puts up like 12k cash... I was probably less than level 10 so I was like OMAGAWDZ MONIES... we're on the second trade screen and he accepts...

Then my mum comes home and she's like "KEANU GTFO DAT COMPUTAR NAOW" so I'm like O SHIT, decline the trade and log out. I was 10 years old at the time so excuse my lack of common sense.

I think that would be definitely in the top 10 of my greatest regrets in RuneScape - not accepting a trade of 12k cash for a bucket of milk.

Being on my brothers acct cutting yews in blue shorts and the prince top. It looked like I had no pants on. People were mean about the outfit. lol

Staying up really late with Joel and RC watching them scam people with black gold and black armor. They would wear one piece black with gold trim and the others black. They would offer to trim it for free but you had to give them the armor and 5 laws to do it. They would take off one black piece and put on the gold trim to show they could do it. I didn't understand at first but then I was like omg lol.

This was probably 3 years before I had an account.

I remember not long after I started playing RS I had killed a goblin and went on to kill another one, nearly dying until a level 44 came and told me to stop atting it and he killed it in one hit and I was like 'wow'

That's like 10 minutes after I got off tut island. >.>

Those highway men were sneaky.

I remember thinking that they were randomly invisible and could come up behind you when you weren't expecting them, but that was just them respawning.

Varrock sewers were so awesome when I first found them.

Fought my way all the way to the end then got swarmed by a ton of spiders and went OMG and ran away.

I guess it was when I followed two guys around Runescape envying them for their Rune Baxes which was 800k back then. I spent 100 days getting 50k.. Lawl?

My very first memory of Runescape was when i started my account. I couldn't figure out how to walk because I didn't read what the people were saying. I always just skip that stuff. I tried all the other buttons like w a s d and the arrow buttons and stuff like that. Took me a while to just click

I remember mining at the Varrock mine. I did not know about randoms at the time and thought that the drunken dwarf was just an obnoxious player so I ignored him. Yep, I got killed by the dwarf and my first free trip to Lumbridge. I had no idea where I was. Thanks Joe for telling me how to get back to Varrock.

Lol, some classics there. Especially from you wayne

My very earliest was the excitement of starting the game, it was amazing. And not being able to speak to the other players

Next memory was finding a rune spawn in lumby and thinking omfg its a rune, this is runescape, these must sell for loads and picking up runes for about 15 minutes

I used to collect the chaos runes at Moss Giants in the wildy for money.
I used to die all the time because the moss giants would kill me.
I bought full black armour and went PKing in Edge wildy. I died and lost it. I was pissed.
I merchanted rune ess, buying it 20gp each and selling 30gp each in world 2. I made 240k after 3 days none stop and thought I was hella rich.
Tried PKing again. Forgot to bank it. Died. Quit.

Came back and tried again.

Became a legend.
