Well boys and real girls, this was the final straw for me. Been playing this game since 2005. Probably 500 days of playtime over all of my accounts, thousands of dollars in membership fees, and a lot of good time with friends from all over the world. Although I haven't been playing nearly as much since I maxed last year, I would still catch the itch to play from time to time. I could always fall back to this game for comfort and escape from real life troubles. Its surreal to reminisce on how important to my life this game and community have been.
Last night I canceled my membership and gave away my bank to friends and random noobs I found while doing my final walk around Gielinor. It was a very bittersweet moment as I logged out for the final time at Lumbridge castle. The silver lining is that while RuneScape was a place of solace, it also became a prison at times; enabling bad habits like smoking weed, staying up late, skipping the gym, slacking at work, and neglecting my relationships. Luckily I have still have games like Fallout 1, Diablo 2, Skyrim and PS2 emulators to satiate my love for video games, which don't carry the risk of faggot devs destroying a pure relic from a better time.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot... FUCK TRANNY FREAKS!!!! YWNBAW 41% etc.
