RuneScape is a MMORPG started in 2001. The current runescape took the place of what now is called "classic" runescape in December 2003. It takes place in the world of Gielinor, a medieval fantasy realm divided into different kingdoms, regions, and cities. Players can travel via a number of methods including on foot, magical spells, and etc. Most people never give runescape a chance, dismissing it due to its graphics and such. Every game has its ups and downs, and runescape has slowly been getting everything up to date, so it is improving. Give it a chance and play it a few months before you toss it aside. I will admit that I've played on and off, never constant.

Now, it has free servers for those who want a free game, but for about 7 or so dollars a month, you get over 3 times the experience as the free servers. There are over 100 quests and many different skills to raise and many activities.

REMEMBER: No buying, selling, or trading in these forums for runescape/gaia
