How often do you play runescape? do you consider yourself addicted? I used to play sometimes 5 hours a day on weekends and i played whenever i could. But recently, i have been trying to play a lot less, and succeeding. If you are addicted, have you tried to stop playing?

I used to play whenever i had a spare skinny minute. I considered myself super addicted. I finally realized that my life was just becoming one big game of runescape. When I was not playing runescape i was thinking about it and wishing it was the next day so i could play some more. I wanted to stop but i couldn't. SO instead of immediately stopping altogether, i slowly weaned myself off of it. I started playing 30 minutes less, then another, and i gradually stopped playing. So last night I got on and the ball was back in motion. I am aware that i need to control how i play now, though.

I had been playing runescape like that a year or two ago, when what is now called "the good old days". I got pretty far, about level 62, when I stopped. I noticed that training became like no-lifing. I started again later, as a test to see how well I could set goals and got to about 3 months ago at 79. I've stopped because training one level can take hours and hours so now I only go on when new updates are out or for holidays. Im now onto another game but I might need to control myself on that one

sadly enough i will say NO also, mainly because to be honest, with only one month of memebership, it really isn't worth it.

i always play runescape when i have the time. even though it is addicting and i am partically addicted to it i will not go on if theere is homework or schoolwork to be done. i try my best to control that urge to play but sometimes my will is not strong enough and i play. for example, every saturday morining i wake up early just to get on runescape without my parents knowing. i hope to break that habit and maybe i will make it my new years resolution. anywayz
happy mylotting and runescaping...peace out -gbeast95

I play it occasionally like when the main games that I play are having a
maintenance.
Its a great game but it is kinda PVE centered and im into PVP type games like CS:S, Warrock and other mmorpg

I would have to say im addicted to the game. I dont think it's a bad thing though. I play around maybe 8 hours a day( lol) but too bad my laptop is currently out of service:(. but oh well, life must go on, I mean I dont have like a "steady" girlfriend so its not like im wasting my life away, i go to college, so my life is not very varied, if some friend want to hang im for it. i have tried to stop playing, but it can be kind of hard because you set goals and jsut dont want to let go.

Sometimes I don't play for days, others I play four 3-4 hours at a time. I don't think I'm addicted, at least I'm not admitting it yet. hha. It's so hard to quit playing because there's always something to improve or something new on the game.

Addicted? I'd say so. I usually play like 4hrs a day. Some days I dont play, every once in a while I'll play like 7hrs :p
