I'm sorry Jim I couldn't finish this video. The trauma from when I lost my rune pickaxe at age 11 is too great.

An older kid bullied me into training his defence level to 30. I emptied his bank and spent about 3 years terrified of bumping into him irl lmao

When I was 10 some guy came up to me at GE. He needed help fighting some wolves in the wilderness for a quest and also I needed to bring my entire cash stack for some reason. Doofus accidentally killed me when we were in the wilderness. I hope he managed to beat that wolf quest, never saw him again

Man I still remember the day that my parents let me buy a membership for $5. I started fletching and made bows till the point that I could afford full adamant trimmed. I was the happiest kid on the planet, till the day I came home and my little brother told me that he lost it to a scammer in a trade 😂 amazing video Jim, really enjoyed it!

It's incredibly nice to have a content creator for this game that doesn't tunnel vision efficiency. Sometimes I just wanna hear some dumb shit that I haven't thought about in over a decade

My dad still tells the story of the day I got lured when I was like 10. I came crying to him and he felt so bad for me cuz some assholes on the internet took all my stuff lmao. Well I have never once been scammed or tricked like that since, so thank you RuneScape, you taught me well.

Took me 3 weeks but finally got around to watching this video. These were some brutal real lessons I learned. I lost my abby whip from a pk scam as a 13 y/o and didn't come back to the game for 14 years. Your video was stellar, J1mmy. Take my like.

Damn that story about your "friend" taking your phats really struck a chord with me. I had the exact same experience as a 13 y/o with two of my "friends" I had known a played with for over a year. Only I was lucky enough to just lose a dragon platebody. It was only 10m at the time but that was 90% of my bank, and it really meant a lot to me. Made it even worse that the two decided to screw me over for something so small :/ It was a positive lesson in the end, and definitely made me more intentional with deciding who to spend my time with.

Within 30 minutes of playing I followed a guy to lvl 20 or so wildy and got killed for the starting items from tutorial island. He said he would lead me to the next town lol. Prob did me a favor teaching me that lesson so early on.

I think this is my favourite video from you. Everything was a trip down memory lane and the "psychology" behind being a scammer and being okay with ruining someone's day/month/year/life over money is very interesting to me. I'm sorry for your loss with the p-hat set, probably still stings quite a bit even though it is such a long time ago.

13:40 This one hurts man. I'll never forget my friend of 8 years who I met in the Runescape Help Chat. I helped progress in the game, many adventures, had deep convos. It was 2014, and he broke my trust overnight, took everything. 500m cash. Went as far as alching my skillcapes. He apologized years later and said he'd rebuild to get it back to me. But that was bs.

There was also this one dude in world 87, a guy in a black robe with a frog hat. Always gave advice and help to those who randomly see him in world. He even tells you where other players are and sometimes help when you're in trouble, like getting new players the shoes in that underground barbarian place. Good times lol

I credit my childhood RuneScape experience for my current day internet awareness. Also J1mmy is the best osrs creator.

I, too, lost full mithril armor in the third grade. I spent weeks mining rune essence and selling it to shops (didn't know trade worlds were a thing). Felt great to finally wear it... Then lost it about five minutes later thinking I'd be op in wildy. I legitimately cried and told my parents about it.

I was a victim of the zammy wine, on the edge of the wilderness. Near ice mountain, they kept slamming the door on me while they convinced me the wine was a rare spawn and they'd "Watch the door" my 8 year old self was so sad hahahah

Bro, J1mmy, that has got to be the best intro you've ever had to a video. That smile at the end? Just golden.

Lmao, this is so true. I remember when I was 10, my super duper char got stolen by a dude who promised to upgrade me to member. I will never forget this lesson.

I remember in high school doing a design technology exam and one of the questions was to name 5 different types of wood. Thank you rs ❤

Man, I remember I needed a cut gem. But instead of being a smart kid and increasing crafting a couple levels I asked people to cut my uncut gem. Man the amount of uncut gems that were "destroyed during crafting" was unimaginable xD
