IMHO, ingame achievements aren't worth much one way or another. Sure, I'll congratulate you for achieving your goal. If you're lucky and I'm not busy I might even attend your 99 party for a few minutes -- but what lasting effect does gaining a ...

How I Get Things Done
It really does make a difference. I get overwhelmed because I have a houseful of craft stuff in a 25 ft camper. There simply is no place to put it. But at 10-20 minutes a day I can clean one teeny space and it makes me feel better. Then I don't ...

How I Get Things Done
Lil, You and I are two peas in a pod. My office is worse than yours. When I first got divorced and moved into an apartment 18 years ago, I decided I was going to keep a clean house. I would set an alarm for one hour. The goal was to beat the ...

Lots of love and support right back at you.
Micro-transactions per se aren't evil. But they never had a place in Runescape when I started playing it all of those years ago. The whole ethos was utterly against them. The rules even stated it. ...

Ermmmm... did I mention the touch of sun? Brain not nearly working right. I might understand the question tomorrow. LOL
Ok, this is what I mean: Say that writing about nail polish is absolutely and unequivocally guaranteed to bring in ...

I guess I just don't get it. I've played Runescape for 7+ years, but I don't understand this purism. Yes, they said they wouldn't before. People have the right to change their minds. I once thought microtransactions were awful things -- and then ...

Young people don't know how to write any more..they use "text" words. I tutor students and it's frightening to see how far behind today's student are in writing!

I'm right there with you. I've made so many good friends in Runescape over the past six years. We've had real life meet ups; we chat all the time in Skype; then I log into the game to hang out and have fun with them.
Now so many are ...

Absolutely and I agree entirely - just thought you lost your way - in the end it is all about headology - you need to meet people where they are - not where you like them to be - correct?/agreed? SY

Ah! I don't think I phrased what I meant very well. I've been out all day walking, and I've caught a bit of sun in between getting drenched. My brain isn't quite in gear. :p
I don't mean indulge yourself entirely; and you should always write ...

Rickie - I will join in you both that head bang and the facepalm. Whoever writes that crap really must think that we're stupid.
With an extremely heavy heart, I have to agree with what you said about the new generation of Runescape players. ...

Jo, I am sorry, but you are completely and utterly wrong! It is not about you, it is about your readers! Whilst I agree that you should only write about topics you know and care about, you need to keep your (potential) readers in mind, not your ...

Cathy - As I also responded to Lucas (below), I utterly agree with your appraisal of recent up-dates. It's not what I've come to anticipate since 2007. The emphasis has truly left quality game-play and moved onto monetization.
As for SoF, I ...

David - I've been AWOL today (18th), so haven't checked out the Runescape front page yet. Thanks for the warning. <3
*goes to see* Ah, yes. It's explaining to me (a Briton) that only US players may buy these game-cards, which come with an ...

Lucas - I've been playing since 2007 and I can testify that up-dates have slowed to a crawl. It used to be that something was added to the game on a weekly basis. It was usually a Tuesday. First Tuesday of every month was quest day.
Since ...
