I can start by saying that I kind of grew away from Runescape and it shaped my personality somewhat in reality.

from 2005-2010 I played an online multiplayer chat environment called Furcadia(second life but in an isometric plane) I still make my own patches for the thing, and I enjoy doing it on my spare time. Pixel art rox.

2004-2006 I was active in marching band
2007 I did Pep club in HS.
2008 I did Football, Track, and Graduated hs.. . . . . . I also campaigned for Obama.
2009 I became a wildland firefighter, toughest job ever.
2010 I started college and I worked on Senator Harry Reids re-election campaign woot woot.
2011 Continued college . . .became the Vice-President of the Young Dems at my college...... fought for liberal causes. . . that kind of stuff.
2012 Became the President of the Young Democrats at my college after the guy who was our President left So I was automatically elected in a landslide . Uhhh I helped Obama beat some puppet in a black suit and tie. I graduated with an Associates of Arts.
2013 I took a break from college and politics, I joined a program called Americorps, did some disaster relief. I fell into a depression because of my moms cancer, and had to be hospitalized for 4 weeks because I wanted to end my life.
2014 I transfered to another college closer to home, and I became active in the theater. i have done 4 plays so far. Oh and I graduated with an Associates of Science degree.... moving up slowly I did help turn out voters for Governor Sandoval in Nevada.
2015 I have settled on a Land Surveying major, and I plan on going to another University in order to become an engineer. . . . I struggle with Mental Illness. Suicide has become my friend the last couple of years, and I try to keep myself alive by looking back at how much I have accomplished.

What have you guys been up to since 2005?

The last 10 years summed up into a post...
2005: grade 10. Junior varsity volleyball and basketball. Volleyball was 3rd in the zone, and won zones in basketball. Unfortunately, juniors don't go to provincials :S
2006: senior varsity basketball and volleyball. We got stomped also, at the end of the school year, I moved out.
2007: senior varsity basketball, got 2nd in zones(earning us a wildcard spot in provincials) then won provincials!!! volleyball we got 2nd in zones also(for wildcard), but got annihilated in provincials :S
graduated high school. Started working the summer of 07 as a chainman for a survey company.
2008: continued working as a chainman. We did a few municipal jobs, but mainly oilfield jobs. Got laid off in recession. Decided to use the down time for an education.
2009-2011: got a two year diploma in Geomatics Engineering Technologies. Summer of 2011 I resumed work with the previous company.
2012: got let go from that company because my work and attitude were suffering due to disliking the work environment and colleagues. Got a new job at my current company.
2013-present: been working steady for one of our main clients near Conklin, Alberta. The hours are wicked! This year slowed down from the oil prices, but i'm still looking at ~3250 hours. Last year was 3988(i was kinda miffed that I was 1 day of work short of my 4K goal). 2013 saw 4086, and the partial year of 2012 was ~2500.
With all my hard work comes a few rewards. I invested in a house on the 1st of January, 2014. A couple years ago I took a 2 week trip to the UK for a bit of a vacation. And since Calgary is so close to Banff, I try to go snowboarding a few times each year!

Oh boy, the past decade of my life summed up in a few lines, huh?

2005
Life: Junior in high school. Started playing N: The Way of the Ninja nonstop, creating something like 150 levels over the next year and a half that my friends played happily. Good times.
RV: Was really active as usual, editing and coding guides and whatnot. Became a Village Legend in November. Hadn't yet stepped into RV Chat despite being here for almost two years.
2006
Life: Graduated high school, started college majoring in Computer Science, etc etc.
RV: Became RV Forum Mod in January, RS Player Mod in February. Started going into the Chat room and making good friends.
2007
Life: College? Probably lots of other stuff, who knows.
RV: RV was down from February to April, haha. The stuff we dealt with back then! Became Board Mod in May, and was 630th person ever to get 99 Hunter in RS in June. Still having fun on RV.
2008
Life: College!
RV: Became a Chat Mod in April, and then a Forum Admin two days later, setting the record for most promotions in a week.
2009
Life: Good times? I mean, I assume. Things are always crappy when they're happening but seem like the time of your life in hindsight. Comedy equals tragedy plus time and all that jazz.
RV: Same. Somewhere around here we moved to FlashChat and I started modifying the code, causing great times for all like the Congo Bell and the Bell Counter and Chatroom Mafia.
2010
Life: Graduated college, got a job in St. Louis.
RV: More of the same?
2011-2012
Life: Working.
RV: Like really, I'm not sure what to put here haha. Resigned my admin position five years to the day that I became a forum mod but I never planned on leaving? Also I have no idea when I got admin status back, apparently that's the one statistic I didn't keep track of, lol.
2013
Life: Quit my job to go to the University of Illinois to get a Master's Degree.
2014
Life: At UIUC, I miss it already.
2015
Life: Graduated from UIUC, got a job with Google. Been there two months now.
Other times
RV: Oh yeah, wrote the ZB series which was like five parts, did the Under Attak series, jeez we played The Adventures of Jimmy for like a year or something I don't know. The RuneVillage Events Team was a big part of my life for well over three years. There's so many things to say here that I can't possibly remember them all.

.Legendary themed months are back! Maybe.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2005: Freshman year of high school. I think I started growing into my fashion statement of hoodies all day every day.
2006: Sophmore year of high school. Started getting a little more comfortable about I.T. job thoughts and dealing with idiot people.
2007: Junior year of high school. Ended up solidifying my favorite tech teacher and having the same few people in almost all my classes from here on out on that end.
2008: Senior year, graduation. Started working at Kroger's while also going to a community college for Computer Networking.
2009 to 2011: Wasted three years working part time at Kroger's and going to college for something I never used in a job. Befriended a few people who became great friends, did a dipshit move that cost me my mod-ship and almost cost me a great friend over time.
2012 to 2013: Continued with the dead-end part time work until getting physical with a bully cost me my job. Odd mix of depression from still having to quit like that and a cathartic moment of many people being sad to see me go. Self confidence boosted greatly from that bit. Got a warehouse job, started FFXIV, patched up some holes and cut some ties in my social life.
2014: As good as officially started dating my current girlfriend, though since it was almost all online, no proper day to say it happened. The house hunt began, and FFXIV was still the big free time taker.
2015: Quit FFXIV at Heavensward's release due to lack of playing ambition issues and wanting to focus on getting a house. Ended up having to get a house and car within the same month or so. Moved in, one week later my girlfriend moved in. I make enough to cover the mortgage / car payment / insurances / utilies / cable, net, phone and STILL have a bit saved, so all of her income is good for groceries, little necessities, and savings. Feels good.

I can't remember exactly when in all of this I tried out Membership on Runescape. It was a fun run. Especially going at it in the Hunter half of the exp gaining RVET competition. And the Dungeoneering. Especially the Dungeoneering. (<3 Ex Rex for this one.)
Looking back, I will say I am at least proud of myself for being able to take such a dead end job as part time retail work and managing to save enough money to have the foundation to get where I am now. Almost everyone I talked to there, back at school, and talk to now in the warehouse, is so damn frivolous and impulsive. Totally proud of my lack of spending compared to that, heh.
