My memories from this time are hazy at best. If this is all bollocks to a seasoned RuneScape player, this is at least what I thought was happening at the time. I was very young, but I think I remember a few things.
I got really good at fishing. Like, really good. I was top level or something like that. Fishing and cooking. I used my skills to trade cooked fish with higher level players, and they’d give me good armour. I always wanted the black armour with golden highlights, whatever that was, and I got it by becoming a virtual fishmonger. I also got a red face mask and a black halberd. It was wicked.
One day, I just stopped playing. You don’t realise it’s the last time you’ll play, but it was—at least for a very long time. I always kept my account details, though. Not too long ago, in 2025, I decided to log back in after God knows how many years. I’m 34 now, but I was 33 then. I must’ve been 10 or under when I was playing RuneScape.
I was banned. My account had been banned for years. Some clown had stolen it and used it to do nefarious things in my name. I don’t know why, but I felt a real sadness for losing that account, even despite not logging in for years. So I sent Jagex an email.
And, wouldn’t you know, someone at Jagex un-banned me. So I’d like to take this moment to say thank you to ‘Mod Frenzy’ at Jagex support. I don’t know if that’s a specific mod or just some collective name for the support team at the bottom of every email. Either way, they saved probably my longest running character in any videogame from near-certain banishment. Legend.
