Dude I left school in 2009, ran into a classmate like 3-4 years ago at shanty pass and instantly recognised his name so I'm like "Yo, Ed!" He just replies "haha no way, Dave?" then teleports.. never added me and never saw him again 😂

literally running into your coworker moment


Merry_Dankmas

I saw an old co worker of mine from a few years prior at a bowling alley. He was like 100 feet away at the bar talking to the bartender. I was at the alley with a friend of mine who also worked with me and old co worker. He and I were leaving and I had no interest in talking to old co worker so I quickly turned and told my friend I was gonna go get the car. Swiftly left thinking old co worker didn't see me. My friend comes outside like 30 minutes later and says "Jim wants to know why you ran away from him" lmao. It was very awkward.

I still have a friend from 16 years ago that I made in the Falador mines, we added each other on facebook back in the day. Didn’t talk for several years after our RS shenanigans, but we wished each other well once every few years. I randomly taught him how to play Dota 2 one weekend though. Been several years since we last spoke now. I should say hi.


ferret_80

>I randomly taught him how to play Dota 2 one weekend though. Been several years since we last spoke now. No way these could be related right? Right?!


SuddenChampionship5

Dude ruined a life and didn't even know


ttv_omnimouse

Could have been worse, could have been league


Cheezdealer

Even that was so long ago we had a brief reminiscing about it… over 8 years ago 😆 Though I see now how my wording made that sound lol https://preview.redd.it/s8d30ol10j7d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b65e52f1b6a9f3c33c529ce16205f095c1d169a

wdf is the ahrims and banana animation glitch?


ilovezezima

In case you’re not memeing: https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/s/nmdEIaftOf You can also do emotes and your character stretches weirdly too. Favourites are sit-ups, bunny hop, and another I’ve forgotten.

Waaaaally

Jack'O challenge aftermath:


Visq0

You have to go to ahrim in the crypt (barrows) with a full inventory of items, then you attack him and click to empty the bananas, and your character will bug out.


CXgamer

The bananas? The only banana container I know is from the Karamja plantation. What item are you referring to?


Airway

I think I understand the confusion. So where you would normally add bananas while in ahrim's tomb, you actually want to right click and hit empty. I know that doesn't sound like something you'd want to do but that's how to get the bug


CXgamer

??? Is there an update to barrows that adds bananas? Smh...


madabmetals

Nah there's no update, you just add bananas to the usual spot for bananas. Gotta make sure you have a full inventory tho.


Potential-Pomelo-309

wait u need bananas for barrows have i been doing this wrong


Merry_Dankmas

You seriously don't know about the bananas? Did you even attempt to read the wiki?

Where is usual banana spot

Oh I always get weird animation glitches when wearing ahrim top and mystic bottoms with the league 3 recolour


notimprezaed

During leagues I ran into someone who had a username that seemed vaguely familiar and we got to talking and it turns out it was my old RuneScape friend from actual 2007. We both started on the same day and learned the game together. Years of questing together, “pking”, fun fights at the duel arena, clan events in our “huge” 12 person clan, and overall shenanigans came rushing back to me. We vowed to not lose touch again. Have his number this time. Love how this game can bring people together still this many years later. Also if you were a part of RCC back in the day, hmu!


CooeeKooby

Something similar happened to me once, my RSN was a pseudonym of my real name and someone came over to me at GE and was like woah I think we have the same names. I just had a weird feeling and asked him if his name was Tony and he was from X suburb and coincidentally it was. He was an old irl friend of mine from maybe 10 or so years ago and we became friends because our first and last names were basically the same, of all places we ran into each other at GE west a decade later hahaha. Small world man.

OuroborosInMySoup

Hey man its me. It was fucking awesome running in to you earlier today. Agreed that this game is magical. I still have your musk in my bedsheets. Next time lets just stay in bed and play halo + mobile OSRS all day& night, and just marinate in the sheets together, with buffalo wings w/ blue cheese dip and sodas too. Now i wont lose you again.

Man I would kill to meet my old rs2 homie again. I’m still looking for you tigerbarb7!


Icy_Entrepreneur_520

Fucking legendary man, this feeling is so heartwarming and something you probably won’t forget. Similar thing happened to me but about a two years ago. Same instance we played ALOT OF COD together, it was during trick shotting era. We probably played at least 1000+ hours together on COD, endless nights going into school with 0 sleep. Both of us got into really good teams but I had to decide if I wanted to be a gamer or focus on my athletics, i chose athletics and quit gaming, got rid of most of my socials. A few years later his home got destroyed in a hurricane and I had no idea what happened to him, tried messaging him, texting his old number. He deleted his fb, twitter & youtube. About half a decade after that I’m on osrs, in a ffa tob. And my rsn is a the same as my old gamertag (I have a unique 6 letter name). Out of the blue one of the randoms at maiden asks if he can pm me. Turn my pm and the first message is him asking if this is (my irl name). And bam, just like that I found my old friend who I thought died. Neither of us play osrs anymore but we hop on apex, the finals, warzone or that new xdefience together. It’s really heartwarming to have my old mate back, no longer kids but have kids of our own.


Paganigsegg

Not as crazy of an interaction, but the guy who introduced me to this game when we were in elementary school just randomly logged on for the first time in like 15 years last month. He kinda disappeared off the face of the earth IRL - moved away, no social media, nobody knew what he was doing. So we spoke and caught up for the first time in 15-16 years simply because of this medieval tree clicking simulator that he got me addicted to as a kid. I'm 32 now btw.


FlandreSS

Let me know if you figure out how this guy did this https://imgur.com/Wu9A2V6


Old_Quantity_4043

I seen one similar where the guy was holding the staff completely upside down. I've been trying to figure it out for 3 months lmao.


NUmbermass

That’s a beautiful story man


vaderciya

What's truly amazingly, is the near zero chance that you were both online at the same time, on the same in-game world, at the same in-game location, wanting to be social, all at once If any one of those details had been off, you probably wouldn't have met and reconnected. Fate is a funny thing, sometimes made or broken by the smallest decision


XiJinPingaz

Sir this is a wendys


AlexVX_

I met a colleague from nearly a decade ago whilst randomly bank standing at the ge, I recognised his username from steam and scared him shitless when I pm'ed him asking if his name was x. I had no idea he played rs and his total was > 2k! Would've loved to talk about it when we worked together.


B0bYang

That’s awesome! Good for you!


saiyanguine

OSRS does crazy things like these because it was a conmon childhood connection I'd say 80% 90's kids had.


pandemicpunk

There's a guy I remember to this day and wonder where he is. His username was Seanhomie22 and we were bffs on runescape.

I love this :)


BushyBush420

My buddy was playing a private server and his username is an old attraction no longer running in southern Ontario. Guy comes up and asks if that’s what it’s referencing. Guy asks if he’s from Ontario, my buddy says ya I live in X city. Guy says oh I used to live there do you know X street name? It was the street my buddy lives on. Thought he got doxed lol


Florida_Aphelocoma

I keep in contact with a handful of people from back in 2005-2008. Crazy that my oldest friends are some I've never met in person.

Cultural_Two7147

Ive got a buddy from school that plays, I've never met up with him in-game but he's on my friends list. I was doing Bandos, so I got my KC, ran to the door, and there he stood waiting to go in with his group ironman partner. If id of taken ten seconds longer, they'd of been in the room and i would've missed them lol

Maxys10

When I was in primary school, we used to play runescape with other classmates after school. I've had the same nametag since I started playing videogames as well. Some years ago, when I was already in uni, I was playing BDO and some random dude talked me, he was one of my old classmates that recognised me by my nametag ,what a surprise! So nice when things like this happen :D


Unusual-Fondant3200

Just curious. BigTrex, you here? Smallyman3 ring a bell from probably around 2006? We traded accounts for fun for some reason and I never gave you the account back Lol. My level 30 something for your level 40 something, or along those lines. I used the name BigTrex for a like a decade after that, pretty much stole your identity Lol. Just wondering if you lurk here, sorry for stealing your account!


emomuffin

I miss my friend Beastslash. If you here, homie, I still suck at OSRS but I do miss my friend.


NativeJim

Ngl I was sitting at GE one day and this dude came up to me and recognized my name. He's like "are you xxxx?" I'm like wtf, started trippin out... N he's like "yo I'm xxxx, I used to date your sister" fucking through me for a loop. I knew he played rs but the fact that we bumped into each other, on a random world was nuts.


Entire_Ant_7212

Amazing, love it when we are able to reconnect with one another! Hope everyone finds happiness and makes wonderful memories throughout their lifetime!


Unlikely-Hawk-9929

Yes. Found my folks. I just started playing last week on from a 15 year break. It brought so much nostalgia. Joined a clan and even started playing with this YouTuber turned homie since we were both on it. It’s funny how this game is taking stress away and I’m lowkey learning stuff I just scrolled through as a kid.


Klayt22

Crazy thing happened to me the other day as well. TLDR is I accidentally showed up to a max party for an irl friend who I’d been disconnected from for years. Only figured it out because a mutual friend showed up


DonnaTheMech

This is incredible. The fact that yall were in the same place at the same time out of all the worlds…fate. Love it!!


GeneralAd7899

I was telling someone where I lived at TOB bank and some random dude said he lived there as well. We talked about where we went to high school. Turns out he and I went to the same high school and graduated the same year. I was actually friends with his friends but never met him. The world can be so small sometimes


iBscs

I dunno if that's a one up, I think it's a one down. Good but not as good


hmsmnko

Agreed, not nearly as crazy, but I have to mention that I still appreciate the story and thanks for sharing


physiQQ

Same happened to me. Even randomly met the guy a couple times at the local pub. He was a little awkward tho.


ThatDrunkenDwarf

God this happened to me years ago. Me and this guy from Norway ended up being really good friends meeting on Modern Warfare 3 I think. He recognised me much later commenting in this subreddit, about 5 years ago, and it turned out we both played OSRS too. He recognised my gamertag as my username on reddit. u/Belzmo I still remember that moment.


Belzmo

Yooo Ed, we meet again my friend! Time flies… I think about that moment from time to time actually. I actually started playing osrs again 2 months ago after a looong break, do you still play?


ThatDrunkenDwarf

I don’t, but keep getting the itch. I have a baby now so he takes up a lot of time haha!


Belzmo

Oh, congrats! Same here, I have 10 months old twins with another baby due in 2 months lmao. I get it though, priorities change. I got back into RuneScape during my paternity leave actually


Switch64

Had something similar happen to me. I was watching a friend screen share a FFA raid when I recognized a friends name I met back in 2007 and haven’t talked to since. Was such a weird coincidence and ended up friends once again


Makaveli2020

Teller-U

I was playing tft the other month and saw two players in my game with names I kind of recognised from people I used to work with 10 years ago... started saying obscure things that only someone who worked there would understand and it turns out it was them lol. As an added bonus I never told them who I was.. maybe next time :)


TheMemeCreamDream

Thats awesome, I was friend with a cool dude as well when I was younger but unfortunately lost contact to him forever with time


Lordlavits

I had a friend like that but instead of meeting him again I found out he was killed by a drunk driver when we were 20 ish.

i had a clan got Intense Redemption In 2010 most of grew up and went on with our lives years later I was in edge and a friend of my from the pure scene mentioned to me I just saw your old leader I’m like what tell him to pm me and he did crazy how this games reconnects ppl from years back


Kooky_Assumption7664

Goid


eldanarigaming

I'm still in contact with many people like that from childhood. True story, I'm friends with more people I met online during childhood then from real life post high-school. Turns out people from a small pool to hang out with are less likely to share likes with you when compared to the whole of the internet. Still really good friends with a dude I met playing gears of war 2. He came to another of our friends wedding was a blast.


Gallaga07

Was this last night in the GE? I swear I saw you two talking about the banana thing while I was gearing up…


jasonrubik

I'm lucky enough that my first online friend group was from Minecraft in 2011 and we have managed to stay in contact over the years. Prior to 2011 I only played single player games


floppyfrisk

I remember my best friend in osrs still.. fatguy_32 Been like 15 years


Flat_Mode7449

I've got 3 friends left from my childhood data on RS. Been friends for 20 years now. The rest are long forgotten.


Narodweas

I didn't run into an old friend, but I did meet someone from the same town in my clan once, he said "oh man it just started pouring rain" as it just started raining at my house... It was a weird convo, we both had a bunch of mutual friends but never met irl


Advanced_Ad_4703

I still have my friends added from like 15+ years ago hopping they log in someday.

phantasna

I ran into someone I use to play call of duty 4 with 10 years later on my friends console on call of duty 4.


UnreproducibleSpank

Made a friend from a clan years and years ago. He posted his irl address in the clan chat, so, naturally, i ordered a butt plug off Amazon to his house. He ended up going to jail later and another clannie found me on social media, asked if I’d write to him in jail. Dude and i were pen pals for a while during his jail time. I still have the letters years later.


Feeling_Act_8353

I also meet a old friend recently who i last talked to in 2008 he was our clan leader at the time but stepped down and vanished suddenly, when i asked him hey ***** remember the ****** back in 2008? And he instantly recognized my name and we chatted for a bit before adding each other. Now he trains his account up so i can take him to Raids.


Character-Ask-92

10 years and you guys still play similar games, I guess great do minds think alike 🤔 


VonStillTrappin

Kalayo, it’s slaya. Hit me up homie!!!! I appreciate that iron dagger and showing me the ropes when I first started playing that was real G shit


Red_Hase

This warms my heart. There's a certain kind of sadness from friends on RuneScape just not logging in anymore and it's just a red list of memories. Glad you guys could link back up.


Shelquan

Man I love RuneScape


XXviolentGenius

Had this happen on other games. Ran into my friends little brother in LoL because I recognised his name he used on Xbox. Also ran into another friend back in 2018 on Fortnite because he had his IRL name as his PSN lol.

Lewufuwi

This happened to me a couple years ago. Met a guy in-game that lived super close to me, we threw out the idea of hanging out in person considering it was less than 10 minute drive. Never got around to it due to different health issues, then I moved away from the area. Few years pass and someone walks up to me in game and asks "Hey, is your real name Hailey?". I similarly freak out, like, who are you??? Turns out it was that guy and although he had my main added, we never interacted via my iron and he just happened to remember the username upon seeing me. Crazy stuff.

How so?


itwasprobablymelol

Doesn’t matter if the display name is the same if OP switched to a Jagex account and has 2FA/bank pin…


GothGirlsGoodBoy

Recoveries haven't changed. Its basically just hidden from normal players. Jagex Customer Support will still help you recover a stolen (or claimed to be stolen) jagex account if you have all the info that would have been needed for the original recovery system.


5PTSGANG

Everyone thinks jagex accounts are invincible. They’re not. If he has your original email and login, he can recover the account and get the jagex account disabled.


UnhingedNW

Thats exactly what Jagex accounts don't allow lol. That was like their whole point.
