Nice NFT & Digital Currency PSA 👍
Nice try, Jim. That's a link you made to steal the 13K and Addy pick in my bank.
Great video! This brought back some memories that I repressed from my childhood. 🫠
PS: It isn't lava. It is magma inside the earth. The best way to remember the difference is that you can fall into lava, but you can't fall into magma... unless you are a dwarf that dug too deep.

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.
The granite maul.... how could they
Same bro. Got lured in the legit dumbest way possible in probably the history of the game.
@@Didyousayweast enjoy your rock hammer noob
I scammed a rune pick in varrock square 10 years ago, I am sorry if it was you
I got my rune pick scammed in a way. Dude was selling it for just 10k and I hopped on that like no other. He kept "misclicking" to cancel the trade and 2 other people were trying to buy it to get me panicking. He tossed an iron pick in, I panic-accepted and he walked off as I followed him begging for my money back.
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!
My first day of membership so so soooo long ago I ran to castlewars off gate and got smacked around. Lol. I was dying to try no risk pvp
@@thewearyexile9000 haha them good old days! A game you can plan for years and still don't know how to play it properly
I miss $5 membership 😒
Bro addy trimmed was the shit 👍
@wearehiddenservices5573 So in other words, don't support the company that you enjoy.
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
Had my whole account taken when i was 9. My mother tried to get it back but back then the support team was 6 dudes in an empty office. So we forgot about it. 10 years later we realized she was still paying for the member fee. I got the account back and it was quite literally untouched. The dude who hacked me didn't realize I was poor as heck.
I went from being scammed as a kid to being a good trade scammer once I was in highschool. I'm a 30 year old returning player, currently playing hardcore ironman mode. Man...time flies. Learned a lot about adulting from this game, no joke.
Same lol
Am currently going through the IRL rebuild and this video helped put a lot of knowledge and lessons and experience that I learned from this game into a greater perspective.
Hell of a fucking video and message, J1mbo. Thank you.
Not only did this video bring back age long repressed memories of losing my full Mithril as well to a trimmer.... But it's an amazing learning lesson. I'm going to show this to my kids, they want to start playing Runescape and I hope this helps prepare them. Thank you!
Don’t warn them. They gotta learn the hard way 😮
The story about almost scamming someone as a gambling host brought back such a vivid memory of myself doing the same thing around the exact same timeframe, 2011-2012ish. Except I wasn't as noble to the point of giving away my items, because since I was also just a 14 year old, I covered up my attempted scam with a lie that I got disconnected and gave the guy his money. But I also quit after that until OSRS dropped so I guess the life lesson is gambling always ends with a similar feeling of guilt.
Lmao, the whole second lesson about the merch clans is criminally underrated. Especially with the NFT Link, so funny that we learned to ignore or how to game such things by playing a browser based rpg
"Ten years ago, when I was a freshman in high school--"
My son is named Fletcher. He's 15. I had 99 woodcutting and fletching. I'm 32. Runescape was my life so much that I named my first kid after it.
I wish i had a runescape friend scam me back in the day. Couple years back it happened to me in real life. Did 200h of labor on my friends construction site. Payment had been agreed upon, but I trusted him and was dumb so we didn't specify the payment amount in the employment contract.
He payed me 20% of what we agreed upon. Effectively stealing 2000€ from me. And there was nothing I could do legally because of the bad contract.
I had known the guy for years, since middle school, through highschool, and even worked the same jobs for a couple years prior. He was part of my core social circle.
People like money more than they like you.
That first skit had my ribs hurting! Haha
I remember back in the day I for the life of me couldn't figure out where cadaver berries were for Romeo and Juliet. And fell for the old "If you give me your password I can complete it for you!" trick.
And then of course the Old " You cant type your password backwards in chat" trick....
ya know Jimmy, for my first comment in idk how long I just wanted to say that you're the ONLY person who has actually had me thinking about buying raycons. You deserve every dollar you were given for that sponsor because you nailed it lol. It wasn't the typical raycon sponsor review, it was colored in and I loved it. Keep up the amazing content Jimbo
My biggest memory was from a RSPS, because I didn’t have money for membership when I was young and they restarted the economy. I was freaking watching these guys sell super rare items for 10k instead of almost to a bill. I was asking one guy why the mods weren’t doing something about it and he said to me”lol dude *we*, are the economy.” And then everything clicked, basic economics all just made sense
Definitely had life lessons in 3 of those locations lol. GE, Varrock West obviously scamming, gambling/GOC, and Lumbridge I got lured onto a pvp world and pk'd in that room west of the castle as you leave the walls.
Bro the emotion you fealt when you were little was described so fkn well. This game is crazy
This game molded us into men at a young age
I was 10 years old, and finally got a beautiful set of Adamant armor. Saw a guy alching in level 2 wilderness by that bar north of varrock.
Being a nice person, I walked up to him and said “hey, it’s kinda dangerous to alch here.” 2 seconds later, 2 guys ice barrage me. I was lured. Pain. I lose my armor, and start crying in real life. My mom asks what’s wrong, and then grounds me for playing runescape on a school night.
Childhood, I miss ya.
biggest life lesson I ever learned was when I decided to join a private server with maxed out everything stats. Then I quickly realized that the game isn't fun when you get everything handed to you. I learned that the game, similar to life, is about the journey to that final destination and not the destination itself that brings value.
Thank you for giving me context clues on when exactly to start pressing skip until the logo disappears. Cut my add time down to hearing 2 letters
i still remmeber losing my first set of trimmed rune armor years back. Haven't lost anything after that, so it was a good lesson.
Right about the money thing. For awhile now UA-cam was just giving me ads at the beginning of videos and then most creators have their sponsored segments or purposely placed ad breaks. Now UA-cams back to random ads intrusively everywhere.
I remember the more obscure and specific scams back in the day like the Wine of Zamorak scam with the door. I remember I didn't know the monks would attack and a guy told me to pick up the wine, then the monks started attacking, I tried to rush out the temple but the guy was spamming the door so that it opened and closed endlessly, preventing me to exit the temple, I watched how the monks slowly killed me and I lost all my stuff that he later picked up. The game was full of these glitch/trick type of scam opportunities, I was afraid of simple mechanics of the game since then.
I remember back in 06 I used to scam people with the studded chaps and tell them “these chaps you’re able to hold your darts. You see them in the pocket?”
Because we were all so young people believed it so much and literally paid 50k (which was a lot at this time) each for them. I made millions and the only offense I got for it was a 1 month mute from Andrew himself
it happened all the time it was very common to take a break from merching to go to lumby and give out low lvl gear, food, and or gp I loved giving lvl 3's black or steel armor and sending them off to skill till they could wear it some times they'd even come back to show you when they achieved the the lvl to use the gear you gave them. when I got my first membership and was gearing up with a friend to do the quest to unlock zanaris and a player gave us both poisoned dragon daggers that we'd be able to weild after the quest and said good luck. best was giving ppl rune platebodies and sending them off on dragonslayer to wear it.
i remember when i was a kid a guy asked me if i wanted to duplicate my earth battle staff. he took me to a remote place told me to drop it and to press "F13" and it would dupe my battle staff. it never worked, he just waited for it to show up to him and took it.. my heart broke that day.
My chronic distrust and disdain for humans comes solely from the variety of scams I experienced as a kid on Runescape. Especially when I got scammed by that one guy I knew on the game for 3 years who I thought was my great friend.
I feel guilty for what I did to a friend. Rik Is Er, if you're reading this..
You are a human, be careful, but don't have disdain for your fellow man without any reason.
I have a similar story with the trimming but it's somehow more and less pathetic, I think. I didn't know how shops worked, but i knew how smithing worked, and I grinded hard to be able to build myself a full iron set, when someone came and said the exact same thing. I'm leveling crafting, do you want me to trim your iron armour.
I of course said yes, even though I had never seen a trimmed iron set because this was like 2005 and bronze/iron trims weren't in .
While I was CAPABLE of going and building another iron set, I stood at the varrock bank right where I traded him for like 3 hours because I thought maybe he had to walk really far away to trim it, or he had forgotten about me and might remember soon
it was only the next day that i realised i was lied to, not that he had forgotten
The beginning was the most relatable shit I’ve ever seen
I like this video because J1mmy seems to enjoy talking about it. He's a great commentator with interesting opinions. Sometimes when he posts videos of him playing, I almost detect a mild resentment in his voice. Out of the blue, I'd like him to do a series on his favourite quests in runescape. Something where he can just talk about it. ByRelease is just synopsis at this point more than commentary
The lesson we didn't deserve, but needed.
on the "people are smarter than you" part, it's not exactly fair to say they're smarter, some of them are, especially the ones who actually create the scams and don't just copy other people scams. The truth is they don't have to be smarter, they just have to be more prepared, and be in an advantageous position. They know exactly what they plan to do, and you don't
I used to scam people when I was just 10 year-old boy. I did scam 2 of my friends and stole their accounts. One of the accounts I did manage to recover because I knew all the essential details to recover it.
I was such an a hole. It taught me that everything can be exploited in a way or another. I don't use these possibilities to exploit people, but I see opportunities to do so in every day life.
I remember at like age 12 I fell for a player pretending to be a Jagex mod and ended up giving them my password. I eventually got it back through the old recovery system but I learned two valuable lessons that day: 1.) Don't trust everything everybody tells you. 2.) There will be some problems in life that my parents have zero ability to help me with.
I didn't have access to the internet except when I was at school. I would spend 30 mins a day in computer class killing cows in 4th grade, it was something like 5K cow hides. Tried trading before GE in Al Kharid... lost it all, and didn't play for about 6 months.
Your sense of comedy and pacing is both unique and familiar at the same time. Never change dude
I still vividly remember making my brother an account and while wandering with him getting lured. Lured as a brand new account with nothing. But lured none the less. As an older brother, that moment sucked
I still remember getting lured, I’ll never forget that.
The Runescape 2.5 login screen at 11:00 hit me unexpectedly hard with nostalgia. Can we have that back?
I think we all remember the first time we got scammed far more detailed than we feel we should. Like I remember my first scammers name, Rs Assist.
He *tried* to scam me for my mithril armor, but something felt off. He was telling me I was accused of stealing items and he needs my password to check my account. I didn't know how server Administration worked or anything, but I didn't like what my gut said about this guy. Fortunately my best friend at the time was able to be trusted with my full mithril armor, and all he got was junk items probably equal to about 3k. The lesson I learned from this though, was don't use identical passwords and usernames for stuff. He found my alt in my friends list and guessed my password, cleaning it out entirely. Not that it had anything of value either, mind you.
Way back in the day I had a friend named DragonCage5 who wanted to try on the new dragon skirt I had just bought with all the money I had saved up. I didn't trust him at first, as anyone even slightly savvy would, but eventually caved in and traded it over. He equipped it, talked about how cool it was, then traded it back to me without a problem at all. I think that was an important lesson for me in the opposite direction where I learned to trust the good in people, but eventually I think I sold that skirt off in a terrible dealt to get a D Long back so eh
Dude... It's freaky how your first scam happened in RS. Mine happened the exact same way. In Falador at east bank, Finally had Mithril armor, dude said he could trim it. Gave it to him, and he logged off. Never trusted anyone ever again....
I got lured my Santa hat many years ago when it was 500m, me and 2 of my brothers shared an account (against the rules I know) but I didn't have the guts to tell then I got lured so I said i dced and got killed by the evil chicken. This is the first time I felt anxiety in my life. Still to this day my brothers don't know the truth.
I actually used your plane line in a business meeting today. Everyone loved it.
I remember, about 5 or 6 years before the grand exchange (i must have been around 11), being an iron ore and essence lackey for a 30 something year old for the better part of a month until I passed someone advertising iron in varrock for a higher rate than I was being paid by my 30 something year old boss.
I have been self employed in every game & life since then.
I use these videos as “stories” to go to bed. And have been doing so for almost a full year now
I once lost dragon claws to picking up a dragon battleaxe in pvp. I kept a dragon battleaxe over dragon claws. It was a typical run of the mill lure at the time. I reported it to be fixed. And I did get that lure fixed. My friend felt so bad I was 15 he gave me a pair so I didn't quit. Still gives me trauma. 😢
So you scammed your friend by fabricating that story.. Well played sir, well played.
This brings back dark memories. I was scammed out of a zammy page for an obby cape swap out to another useless cape. i dont even remember which one anymore
In the golden age of runscape I had a good account for the time and I got scammed out of it they said they were a admin 😢 never played again until yesterday 🙌🏾 it’s legit been over 10 years still so nostalgic
Opens the video on player to player scams, immediately transfers into an ad for one of the biggest hype marketing scams. Thank you for your work. W.
The old days are real rough. Its a core memory. Getting lured or scammed or even hacked. The mithril armor hits close to home. First time i was ever lured for my mith armor
I remember losing an online friend in RS when they were telling me about how I should buy earth talismans from them as they are selling at roughly 4k a piece and I could net myself a profit as they were still on the rise. I told him that I should just buy in from the GE instead and we could sell at the same time so we can maximize profit and proceeded to invest 10 mill into earth talismans after selling my 1st DFS that I earn after some time. He immediately told me how I was an idiot and how he was trying to off load his talismans on my ass as they were crashing hard right now. I just kinda said something like “Oh” and kinda just removed him from my friend list. I spent a couple years of chilling in chats together with this dude while training slayer and now I can’t even remember his username anymore.
I remember being at my nans one evening playing on the computer, I spent most of my day killing hill giants for GP, I finally amassed 50k Gp and like a true 12 year old I kept that GP in my inventory, anyway I ended up running away from hill giants because I nearly died and ran straight into the hobgoblins only to get k0'd, I ran back and just stood there at the door without a brass key spamming it wondering why I couldn't enter... I didn't know what to do so I logged out and went and played Battlefront on my PS2 thinking I'm never gonna play Runescape again
Ironman mode is excellent solely for becoming practically immune to scamming
My worst memory is losing a full Mithril armour set in clan wars that I got running around guilinor and buying from shops while being free to play bcz I didn’t know about the ge. It still keeps me up at night 😢
Succesfully got me to change the video on that commercial, but ya did earn the comment
This is probably your best video so far, J1mmothy. It was even kind of touching. Keep up the awesome work.
Fantastic video. I've honestly learned so much from playing this game over that last 16 years. I remember the first time I got scammed was an item switch trade scam, I was genuinely so confused at 12 yo lmao. This game definitely shaped me though
the twist at the intro was beaut
My first scam was noted mith legs instead of rune
Learned math, social skills, economics, physiology, and more from runescape.
My life lesson came from pest control some guy was buying this item at the time for wayyyy higher than normal I think it was a whip? For I think 7.5m where another guy a bit further down was selling it for 5m..so I spent my 5 mill and in 06 to 07 that was a lot of money and was stuck with my 1.2m whip. Cause other side kept spamming he was buying but never traded. From that point on I never got got again.
Good old gold trim scam... also fell for that one when I was around 11 years old. This metnally broke me. I was cutting willow logs in lumbridge and selling them to the general store for weeks to save up the money to buy mithril!
Honestly dude I watch this video every day at coffee break. The intro is gold the lil smirk ahahahah
12:50 Polish TeamSpeak!
best ad segway I've seen in a while, great video as always j1m
True, learning all this shit as a kid playing runescape definitely helped out when navigating other online games later on, still use what I learned today.
You know… I just came here to the comments to say I just watched the whole Raycon ad un-ironically because your personality is entertaining 😂
Considering I grew up in Vegas, it was basically mandatory that our school did a segment on the dangers of gambling.
Too bad I learned that the hard yet easy way 2 years prior with the god damned flower game. Along with general scam awareness. Nowadays, while I may seem generous and overly trusting to strangers, I am on a hair trigger for any manipulative bs. And unlike runescape, there is nothing actually physically stopping me from punching their smug ass con artist face! Just legally and socially. Likewise, the occasional bouts of wilderness trekking has also taught me to always have a plan, a backup plan, and an insurance plan incase shit happens anyway.
Don't make me regret subscribing and then commenting on this video after the first literal minute. 1:01
Oh and I liked it too
Lol the little dance in the ad was too good 😂
“3 seconds of things to bring 7 to 10 days of misery.” Yep. Felt that.
idk how to make this not weird but your end screen song sounds like the entire chocolat movie
Man I fucking loved that Rune Platebody....
Since I didn’t play RuneScape as a kid, the game that I got scammed on more times than I’d like to admit was a dumb little game called “growtopia”
i still remember my scammer's name, vonks, got me with the old trimmed armor for my brand new mithril set too!!
I remember I was grinding money to buy a saradomin sword because I thought it looked so cool, I ended up getting half the cash for it when I let a long time runescape friend know over PM's about it. They hosted hot and colds and said I should try my luck with a game. I ended up putting all the cash I grinded onto blue/cold/whatever you wanna call it and ended up getting blue flowers. They wrote "congrats :D" in chat and logged a few seconds later. I saw them log back in on a different world and then they went offline. I was so devastated I decided I would quit the game lmao.
I remember taking a test in middle school and one of the questions was what you needed to make bronze. Well that was easy, copper and tin. Thanks runescape!
I use to switch noted rune scimitars for iron ones so fast you couldn't tell lol
Lookin good Jim! Trimmed that beard up and the cut is fresh
in 2006, on one of my first accounts, all I really did was play castle wars and rp. One day some random person messaged me saying that he was from jagex and that I won some shit that would give me 1m gold a week, I just needed to give him my password etc etc. I was 9 years old and dumb as fuck I guess because I gave him my password and he told me to swap to his world. Then I proceeded to lose my account. I was so fucking devastated and bawled my eyes out. I have images of that day in my head so clearly too. It was the beginning of June and I had an end of the year fieldtrip later that week. Omg...
I made a new account later that day after I calmed down. The stupidest thing about it to me was that that account was level 24 and had jack all on it. I didn't even know how to make money other than sell single stacks of 100 flax for 10k. The name was Snowbunny252 so it's not like I had a desirable name either. So idk wtf that guy wanted with my account. Like how do you see a level 24 wearing monk robes rping as a saradomin priest and decide you want to steal that one??
I hate ads just as much as the next guy. But Mr. J1mmy, I watch every one of your ads because they are so heckin' funny and it looks like you have fun making them. Keep up the good work.
I had a friend that scammed me for full bandos and a couple other items back in 2018 on RS3 and he later gave back a little over 200m just recently and honestly it was the most confused thing I could ever go through with all of the emotions coming back after years of not thinking about it and now that I write this Im pretty sure it can be seen as a loan because the money I got back went up compared to if I had kept the items I think? I dont know people are nice sometimes even if they fuck up and scam you :) long rant no one read okay ty xo
Best add placement I've ever seen. Thank you sir 😂
I started playing Runescape in 2002. I was ten, an idiot, and spent most of my time cooking. After a year of constantly blocking the home phoneline (yay dialup), I managed to talk my mom into paying for membership. Some of my clearest childhood memories revolve around this game: earning a dragon longsword, telling my non-member friends about the RS2 beta, writing fanfic about my character doing the quests, and losing my account to a scammer.
They pretended to be a Jagex mod and asked for my password. This was before the Stronghold of Security, I was twelve, and still an idiot.
I asked my mom, who knew nothing about any of this, and she told me to do what they say. So, I lost my original account.
I went on to play Everquest 2, then WoW, and never spoke to another human being ever again.
On the positive side: this damn game got me super interested in medieval history at a young age, and now I'm close to graduating with a Master's Degree in English with a focus on medieval literature...so oysters, I guess?
One time about 5 years ago on RS3 this lurer/scammer came up with this articulate method to try and scam me and I had privacy mode on, he wanted me to bring everything in my inventory to the edge of the wilderness and said I'd never have to enter the pvp area and wanted to show me a glitch. Told him my santa hat was keepsaked and couldn't afford a bond to get more keys to keepsake it again after and that I wouldn't come unless I had another key, and he traded me a bond.
I then proceeded to leave, and he pmed me calling ME a scammer. 💀
I was at rock crabs traing my 1 def pure when this guy in some really sweet looking armour logged in and traded me a noose wand. They said if i could kill a crab with it they would give me some money or something. I attacked the crab and shortly after 2def. I tried gambling hosting and lost a bunch.
Hahaha I play the medieval clicking simulator and you made the video content for it too. Both need to opt out
I still remember my friends questioning how I became so rich after my first few months of playing. They had account's from months before I played. Buying x selling x and collecting the profit was everything to childhood me... then I discovered the duel arena and how credit cards work 😂😂😂😂
3:44 the freaky kind of animal noises not the uwu kind
The obby cape swap got me back in the day, many lessons to be learned by 13 year old me
I respect the lead into that ad. I watched 4 seconds and THEN skipped, instead of skipping right away.
Never type your password in backwards. RIP John Adams 67.
Don't forget the random loot piles of people dying with all their dropped gear. Nowadays not really a thing anymore, but back in the day when people would randomly die and drop their d long it was a massive race to the piles
That whip scenario sounds exactly like forex traders
Long time ago when I actually played RS a guy in the miners guild accidentally traded me his magenta party hat. I legit planned to give it back to him but wanted to show it to my friends first, knowing I would never be able to tell that story without being called a liar unless at least one other person saw it. The guy was just so upset tho and was convinced I was never giving it back if it wasnt right away.
I wonder what your odds are of getting a player who returns it if you tested this with a high value item.
Not good thats for sure.
I mined all kind of rocks to get finally black g platebody and I was so happy about it in 2009 or something. Well someone lured me to wilderness and killed me and I lost it. Then I just started crying and my big bro gave me new one. After that I have always hated wildy
Jimmy has raised my security awareness with the capatilisation thing more than jagex ever has
This is the first time i've ever liked a video because of the transformation to the ad. lmao
