I play this mmorpg called runescape for at least 18 hours strait, the only time when I get off is when I'm about ready to pass out.I do this everyday, nothing else. So I take a shower for 2 mins, get out back on pc, then I eat, finish in 5 mins, then get back on. Everytime I'm off the pc, I treat the real world as this mmorpg. So I feel as if I walk in this game. I don't know anybody in the real world, only people in the game. So I have no friends at all and I don't talk at all in the real world. If something happens in the game, like if a friend leaves the game I feel like commiting suicide. I've played this game for 12 years strait. Is this normal?

    You should get a life. Runescape is not that fun and I NEVER played it before. You played it for 12 years? Are you over 18?? If you don't talk in real life and just play a stupid game then you're gonna be a lonely stupid moron in real life. If you get married(If that ever happens) and your wife sees that you play RUNESCAPE for a living, your gonna be single for the rest of your life. So you should get out more and get a life. Go to Rehab. If you don't listen to people's advice, have fun living your dumb life.

    Ween yourself off it. Video games, especially MMORPGs can be addictive, but not in the same way as drugs.

    Here's a little trick: NEVER think that you need to go on, just to stay ahead in the game. That's were most of the extra addictiveness compared to other video games than MMORPGs comes from.

    I love runescape. It's awsome. I also log in for a few days in a row, two or three times a year. So I'm pretty sure I'm not addicted. I just play for fun, along with about 100000 other games...

    Don't be a gold farmer. When you do that your game is work. Work, including volunteering, is more satisfying in real life, even if you don't care about the money much.

    You have a serious video game addiction sir. I played Maplestory for 4 years 15~20 hrs a day 10 hrs during school. I know what it like. What you need to do is get a job. Even if part time only 20 hrs a week. If you sell your rs account on eBay you will not be as addicted as you are now at the begging

    It's not healthy especially since you have to mooching on your parents for housing,internet access, and food being that you can't play this much and hold down a job. It's a life but not a proud one. Get a job first and try to balance game time and work time without gamer withdraws. If you can't do it throw out your disks and uninstall the game. You'll be surprised how much more creativity you'll gain at finding productive things to do.

      Rune scape is an online game,which you play directly from the website, it will always be there when he has internet. You have a serious video game addiction sir.

    How long have you been like this? I have heard great things of runescape, never played it,though. This really isn't good. You need to find some other form of outlet. You cod go to college and learn how make video games. You'll met people and might even create a better game. You won't know until you try. "Passing out" that's not good either. How many times a day do you drink? You need to keep hydrated. How many hours do you get of sleep? The advised amount is 8hrs. You could make yourself very sick.

    I don't play, but you should just bot, and not play. Good things tend to happen then.

    I think that it may be a little to much time on runescape but honestly I don't see a problem with it i also play for continuous amounts of time but not everyday, it is a very addicting game and i don't blame you for playing that long just maybe cut a hour or two out on weekdays, and then on weekends make up for it :D

    Lol.
    I used to play Runescape, never to the extremes.
    However, isn't it only just coming into its 9th year? I remember playing when i was at school, back before it had a face lift.

    Well Runescape has only been around for 9 years, therefore it's impossible that you've been playing it for 12 years.

    Despite whether Runescape is crap or not, that's seriously unhealthy. Make some changes as soon as possible.

    your a smart person but your skill you have with computers are not put to good use playing. there are ways out there to make your skills to good work. and i dont think it health for your body to play so much. i was a adicted to a game once and now i work as a computer game programer allways think about new things.
