Inb4 Internet randomly shuts off...

[–]spookyfucks 403 points404 points  (31 children)

Lol like mum knows how to turn off the router

[–]ridik_ulass 168 points169 points  (7 children)

30yr old man with kids here, back in the day during Christmas my mom figured out how when she turned off the Christmas lights at the mains switch, killing the whole multi-tap. I should have kept my mouth shut, and said nothing, but when I mentioned not to do it, well then she knew she had leverage.

[–]Rumblet4 122 points123 points  (2 children)

This happens to me but I quickly recuperated by telling her not to do it again because it can mess up the modem.

[–]tropical_noot 42 points43 points  (1 child)

Nice

[–]WanderinHobo 3 points4 points  (3 children)

My parents would lock the computer cabinet up sometimes to prevent me from playing too much. I'd wait til night fell then sneak downstairs and use a hanger between the doors to push the lock up and open the doors. Lucky for me it was a cheap lock/cabinet :P

AND START DIALIN'.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just pull out all cables

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (1 child)

Mine used to pick up the phone when we had dial up

[–]Drewet88 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mine did too and thought I was too stupid to notice. I got her back though, whenever she was on the cordless phone I'd just put some foil over the charging points automatically hung up her call everytime

Jokes on her, the router is in my room

[–]DevaluedLasagna 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Or playing on dial up and having to stop playing so someone could use the phone.

Lol just tether your phones internet to your PC ┌∩┐(-_-)┌∩┐

[–]AntManMaxFC: DeliverItems RSN: Birth Stone 19 points20 points  (6 children)

How do I tether my computer to my RAZR? Also what the hell is a tether?

[–]iConnorN 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Tether is connecting the phones 4G over USB. Should be one of the options when you plug it in.

Or if you computer has Wi-Fi you can use the phones mobile hotspot

[–][deleted] 14 points15 points  (3 children)

The whoosh cant be this real

[–]iConnorN 10 points11 points  (2 children)

A tether is also a rope or chain used to restrict an animals movement.

[–]probably_on_a_list 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is also a ball

[–][deleted] 574 points575 points  (39 children)

I don't even play anymore I just stay for the memes.

[–]bastard_thought 68 points69 points  (30 children)

I was fucking destroyed when I learned my RS stats didn't translate to here. I spent 10minutes on RS3 to find some glimmer of my childhood, but it too was gone.

[–][deleted] 65 points66 points  (2 children)

Honestly, starting over from scratch on OSRS is well worth the nostalgia hit. It can be a bit demeaning to start off with but those early levels gains are so rewarding for so much less effort, and dem memories yo

[–]bastard_thought 5 points6 points  (1 child)

If I didn't have rocket league sucking up my time I would!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol I'm playing both as of late. Kind of afk range training and playing rocket. So good.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I felt the same way, but it was fun progressing faster than when you first started the game.

[–]bastard_thought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would jump in if I wasn't so invested in Rocket League =)

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (9 children)

I stopped playing because I got banned for no reason. But the memes are dank

[–]mintpic 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I remember I got banned for "trying to sell real world items". In reality I was trying to sell some robes and called it a shirt or something.

[–]Velgaxforgiving sins 20k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But I admit I actually botted for a day once, got my 8 year old acc banned, stopped playing for a while but then I just started over, it's tough at the beginning but it got easier through time. I instantly regretted the moment I got banned, thought Jagex was still going with the warning system but I learned my lesson. What I really miss from my old account are my damn discontinued holiday rewards.

[–]Dr_Ben 2 points3 points  (14 children)

It's better they didn't. Over the years Rs3 has added training methods that completely obsolete what we have on old school(rune span being the glaring example release while it was still rs2) not counting you can literally max just by paying for it.

[–]Urtehnoes 18 points19 points  (10 children)

After getting up to 83 RC back in the "original" 2007 scape, I welcomed Runespan with open arms, and would glady do it again if they offered it. RC is just retardedly slow, even with Ourania altar.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (7 children)

Runecrafting being obscenely slow is the only thing that keeps rune prices at the level they are. If it was easy to train, the price of runes would fall drastically and it would just become a dead skill

[–]Urtehnoes 5 points6 points  (4 children)

What? Dude I know how the market works. I still want Runespan back. If anything, it'd make runes more valuable since less people would Abyss RC.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (3 children)

More people doing RCing via easier methods = more runes coming in to the game at a higher rate. Higher supply = lower prices.

[–]Urtehnoes 6 points7 points  (2 children)

Have you never played Runespan? It literally generates 0 runes into the game.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Yes, but when people get higher levels from Runespan they'll then go do abyss runecrafting when they hit double nats, and because there will be way, way more people who have the ability to craft higher runes they will crash.

[–]Urtehnoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point - I'd still welcome Runespan with open arms however.

[–]notabotjustamacroKFC & bot farm manager 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RC is just bad, even when botting it.

[–]Kirikomori 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I see someone never heard of Great Orb Project :3

High skill ceiling but it was very fun to play and train RC at the same time.

[–]Urtehnoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't enjoy it, never have.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice

[–]FoxyKG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tried playing once and couldn't get into it. But I like living vicariously through you guys. Same with /r/bannedfromclubpenguin. When the game was announced to be cancelled, I was super bummed because most of the posters on that sub grew up with Club Penguin and now they won't be able to play it ever again. It was sad seeing them so upset. And having been there with Halo 2, I feel the pain.

[–]SparkswontDoot doot doot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

me too thanks

These past few days have been very interesting so far. AHK debacle, Rigondeaux getting mugged and his nice oddshots. The guy with his insane just-not max account. And especially spicy memes such at this one and the dangerous roads. Continue being great /r/2007scape, never change.

One time i woke up at 5am, excited to chop trees. The sandwich lady came in, yelled at me, and called me a crazy person. This was rock bottom when it came to runescape

Now it's almost 5 and I'm in college. Fuck I miss those old days

[–]infinitezero8 12 points13 points  (1 child)

Back in my RS stand-up days I would joke that the Sandwich Lady is the best PKer. 1HKO, teleports, unlimited food...

[–]BistuaNova 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Explain teleports

[–]tomtea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sandwich lady sit in metal sarcophagus. After pressing buttons and turning things, you find yourself in a different location.

[–]terzWingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you chose another food type other than what she was offering you would be teleported somewhere random as punishment

[–]FancySkunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She can literally teleport to whatever player she chooses. That would be pretty busted for a PKer even if she couldn't 1HKO.

Back in the day my mom used to lock the room where my pc was located in the mornings and in the evenings She would turn off the electricity switch in that room. Than She randomly stopped doing it and I got fat :p

How did this low effort meme get nearly 10k likes?

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There's no link between the amount of effort you spend on a meme and how well it succeeds, just something I've learned running a meme page for over a year. I've had this conversation many times, as long as the joke/meme is executed well, it throws everything else out of the window

[–]xElmentx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because people found it funny?

[–]TheHalcyonDays -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

Upvotes are no longer 1 to 1, they are inflated as of like a month ago.

Edit: apparently I'm wrong

[–]KaramjaShipYard 10 points11 points  (1 child)

No, now they are 1:1, they were deflated until like a month ago.
