This is "tl:dr", but kinda funny too
I found Runescape shortly after I found the joy of highspeed web browsing. I had a older computer at the time, but still wanted to see what this online gaming stuff was like. Then I remembered a game mentioned in a flame war where people were ripping on the guy playing it and comparing it's graphics to SuperMan 64. So, I decided to see how bad it really was considering it sounded like it would run no problem on my machine.
Signed up, was pretty surprised how fast I did and surprised about how many user names were already taken. As soon as I saw the character clothing options I knew they were right. Ten outfits, anime hair. Oh boy. So I caught my first shrimp and made my first fire, which gave me the impression that I was going to be stranded in the middle of nowhere for most of my time playing. And what fun activities to pass the time! After finishing, they booted me to Lumbridge like parents kicking their kid out into the world. I was confused and didn't have a clue what to do. So I wandered around and tried to talk to the first person I saw: A yew cuter, default clothing, lvl3. I asked them what they were doing. No response, screw you too. That was my first time I saw a bot besides the ones on Tutorial Island.
Pretty soon I found stuff to do, found that most things were VERY repetitive and found how much I'd rather be doing other stuff. Now here's the real kicker, I found out about macros FROM JAGAX. LOL. I was reading their rules and thought, "well, they must work if there's rules against them". The first thing I used was an autoclicker. Used it to get my mining up, while standing by to handle randoms; which I thought were the antibotters/banners. Surprisingly I ran it for three days until they banned me. I was upset, but I made a new account, bam, still have that account today. Anyway, I found Sythe's page, and alot of talk on Scar. I tried to run it but it lagged my computer bad, so i gave up. Played Runescape, obeyed their rules for a while. Finally I purchased a gaming rig which handles Vista and the high end games no problem. But, even though I could play state of the art games, I still found myself playing Runescape. I found that I came to like it. :eek: I liked the goal setting, regardless of how repetitive it was. But I was broke, while all my friends had awesome stuff. So, rather than risk my health pulling all nighters making money I tried Scar again, and because of my new machine it ran. YAY!. First script I used was Stoopid's auto miner and then Starblaster's Powerskiller. I was surprised how well it worked, and for how long. Even more surprised by the fact that it was working without any bans. Well, sometime I found I needed SRL and found this site from Sythe's. Here I am now.
