Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

RuneScape.
I played RuneScape when it first came out (late 2001) ("RuneScape classic") and stopped playing shortly after "RuneScape 2" was released (2004). I played for about a week in 2011 after a friend brought it up, but I wasn't really interested in playing an MMO again.
I heard RuneScape pop up here and there over the years but still didn't feel like playing an MMO. At one point I tried to login for fun but couldn't remember my password.
About 2 years ago I suddenly remembered my password (who knows where or why it returned to me when it did) but I had my 20+ year old account back. I locked in and played OSRS for about six months.
I didn't know originally that OSRS was a separate new character, so I wasn't sure if I wanted to start over again, but I had fun revisiting old content and exploring new content. I watched a bunch of videos (Settled Swamplympics, etc)
I stopped playing shortly before Sailing was released. But I still watch the occasional YouTube video and read big news about the game. Maybe I'll go back someday.
