Whoa, lots of different opinions on runescape.
I am a level 91 on runescape, I pay $8.50 a month for membership fees. I like runescape because of the sheer size of the userbase and the fact that you can't really cheat as such in it. Plus its also VERY soloable and a lot of the stuff you do is cinematic and there is lots of humor in it.
Having played everquest for about a year (I had a years gap in runescape in which I missed out on Easter ears and scythre), I would actually categorise runescape as being slightly better than everquest. First of all, everquest REQUIRES grouping, and camping monsters. Secondly, it encouraged RL money buying and trading for items over Ebay. Thirdly, its a NIGHTMARE.
Then about a year ago, I started playing Ultima Gateways, Really that game is worse than runescape. You have PURE pkers mobbing you in every town including Britan and Trinsic, then most of the noobies dont have a clue what they are doing.
Runescape, once you get past the free world, is a relatively nice place where you can talk about loads and loads of stuff with other people and not get flamed.
If you got scammed or hacked on runescape, I am sorry about that bad first impression.
