Genuinely did not expect to get so many amazing responses when I made this topic. Some really amazing success stories within this clan. 

I don't see a problem with it personally  but for me I'd have to meet them in person and get to know the irl version of them as well before actually dating them as things can be completely different when face 2 face and for all you know the other person could be shallow and although really likes you would be disappointed and change their mind when they meet you. And I don't really see the point in actually e dating with no intentions to meet irl because then you may as well just consider it a really good friendship

Years ago I was in a clan where the leader met someone in Runescape. After a relationship of a few months she eventually scammed all his stuff. Of course it doesn't have to go like this every single time. I'm pretty sure there's people out there who met in Runescape and are having an amazing life together! At least they share a hobby. 

If you meet someone you get along with, have an attraction to and the feeling is mutual then who cares where you met? Runescape is a perfect place to get to know people properly. How many people would be more honest in-game than IRL with friends/partners etc.. We all know it's much easier to text bad news. I feel like you'd get to know people better tbh.

I had a RS girlfriend once years ago, she bought me an obby shield that year for Christmas. Winning.

Lovely stories, Shef & Powell!

2 of my friends met online and they've been together for a few years now..

I met my ex-girlfriend from RuneScape too, she lived just 30 minutes away.


I guess it depends how realistic you're being. If you're an ordinary person with a mediocre job, live in Belgium and you're dating someone from Australia, then you know you're really only ever going to meet at RuneFest.. if ever at all.

No but seriously, I think E-Dating is fine as long as there are plans to meet and be in real life, or otherwise just for "fun". We're human, we shouldn't be living behind screens all day to impress our E-Date. Get out of your basements and live!!!

Nothing wrong with it, in my opinion. Just be careful. :p
