So I Had Something Pretty Spectacular Happen To me In Runescape. More Specific In Oldschool, Runescape.
Before I Get into Specifics On What Happened Ill Give You A Rough Idea;I Have Always Been A PKER
That being said what I am going to tell you may sound crazy but it is entirely true I did not vid it although I was streaming it on discord multiple times.
I took 1m and turned it into 12b in 1 month. I know crazy right, what are the odds, or your like no way your lying.
Either way yeah I turned 1m into 12b before I tell you how I want to give you some background on my runescape career.
During my time playing this game frequently on and off throughout the 20 years it has been released, I have always pked.
From when we were pking with so many white dots you couldn't differentiate them in varrock multi wildy, or baiting kids to hill giants and having your team stack them out while there DD.
I made money grinded and went through the game maxed out made pures grinded monsters etc. Then they ruined runescape, Which would have been fine but I had so much invested in the game for them to ruin brid and edge pking and everything.
Honestly it was terrible, but little did I know Oldschool would release, coming in to save my favorite game (besides Diablo 2) So I played on release it was dope as fuck we were all pures pking pvp worlds while training and shit trying to grind achievements.
boaty pking edge as a pure with 99 fish cape 1 month in was dope as fuck if you played release you know. So Pre eoc I pvmed a lot and enjoyed it to a extent but then I got bored of it and kind of fell out of pvming because I use to do like 1 week long 1 inv bandos trips.
Shit back in the day and after they ruined all that shit I figured fuck it and in oldschool I admittedly did a lot of work on my account, but I got really lucky also as I maxed afk guthans 6 hours 3x a day while I worked went to school and slept lol.
Also I made like 79m osrs off getting 99 magic for free in nmz with all the points I got before they nerfed that as well. So I have like shit for pvming kills though on my account but I have pked Consistently throughout the years.
Now that I feel like you understand me a bit better I'll let you in on the main point. I have made max cash in this game tons of times I have made 40b banks 2b banks had 2b bank + 5 gs sets in 08 like 4 months after release of godwars.
Every bit of it was made by dicing and pking/high risking. I have made max cash pvming pvp never skilling before sadly that has never been my favorite I paid for all my skills that you could make money on 99s the 1 time I maxed pre eoc anyways I had never won anything at the duel arena.
Made massive amounts of cash, but never could I make something staking. I did all kinds of staking pre eoc, titan staking, tank pure staking etc... always ended up negative by a fuck ton.
Well these last few years as my schooling for my degree is starting to become a 16 hour 6 days a week job I have stopped playing a bit I sold my gp quit staked chucked maxed cash like 4x trying to live the dream and lost every time.
Quit for a bit every time and came back rebuild off pking nd zulrah and what not or mess around on one of my pures or friends special accounts etc.
I have done this since 2015. Never achieving my dream at the max cash from staking or 1b+ stakes. Always lost the 5 the 10 the 15 the 20 the 25 the 30.
It was kind of bothering me being poor and since they released all these items I had never tried and couldn't try because I was poor it bothered me, it consumed me, it suddenly turned into an infernal addiction, a malefaction spreading like wildfire through my thougths.
I kept losing I kept losing it never ended. I lost and lost and lost and kept trying doubling up like the videos I watched said to do. Trying everything I could with no results, meanwhile my bank dwindling away as the addiction burns through my logical concept of the cons.
I would face through selling every thing possible in my mains bank, killing myself for the untradeable gear money. Wasting 60m nmz points on runes to sell for cash in the ge which actually wasn't the right thing to buy.
I now had met a new low in runescape one I had never seen before. I was completely poor, I had no hope. So I gave up caring about the game and started to enjoy just playing LMS mini game every day getting 1-3m from points and staking it.
So I did this for about 1&1/2 months and from doing this I eventually found a rhythm that stayed consistent while I was staking and I staked in what I thought was a pattern.
Like a wave type form coming ranging from 1/3 win loss as I would lose then I would win/win or I would win /lose/lose or I would lose/win/lose etc.
Trying my best to predict when it was time to do big stakes and staking small ones in between I noticed I lost more then I won but if I made the 1 win I got count then the losses don't matter right? well I don't know how but it worked, I used this method until I reached 12b.
By the time I had all of that money though using tbow and all the items buying every item every ornament kit and having max cash + 1/2.
It became really pointless for me to play because why pk why boss why do raids why do the new nightmare boss longer then a few kills its going to give me the staffs I had already bought set 2 days after release + all orbs and arm and mace lol so it didn't matter.
I gave away my gold and quit playing, now I am focused on real life shit way more. So in conclusion if you read to this point your a fucking boss and a unique minded individual, But the point I am trying to make is if you can take my word for it.
From a staker that lived the dream, It is not worth it. Staking ruins the game when you lose, staking ruins the game when you win it all.
The whole point of the game and fun is the struggle and vizual rewards. I also want to brag and let it be known its fucking possible to beat this shit fucking game and turn 1m into 12b + whatever the fuck else i had and gave away I bought 200 ags 200 of every reward from twisted release and gave away elys to every one of my irl friend that plays LOL fuck staking its shit don't do it heres the toxic fucked addiction that corrupted my soul pictures for your pleasure. I hope you guys don't stake, its not worth it.
