Do you use a guide the first time you did something?

I have like 20 different Runescape accounts, but I never really looked at a guide on my first account I made, on the others I just didn't feel like taking the time to do all that walking and preparing in the middle of it.

All those guides are common sense. They're just hoping to make a buck of noobs.

I don't know..some of them can be helpful like the harder quest.

I thought you ment the "How to be a millionare in Runescape " guides that some sites sell. They're a complete rip off. Quest guides like the ones on Rune Hq or Tip It are useful. Or at least I hope so since I've helped write some of them.

Oh wow, you actually helped write some of them? That is so awesome! Do you remember right off hand, which ones you wrote?

You mean like quest guides? I try to stay away from most guides unless it's full of interesting stuff I wouldn't have known otherwise. I think guides take the fun out of finding things for yourself, so even with the hard quests, I like to try them out myself. While doing While Guthix Sleeps, I didn't use a guide, and when it took me 3 days to complete it, those were a very fun and interesting 3 days to figure everything out on my own :)

I don't normally use a guide, unless I am really stuck on something.
