House Parties are fun!
Good day one and all!
It certainly has been some time since my last article. I am terribly sorry for the unexpected hiatus! However, I am back and I am here with a present.
Speaking of presents, I want to present a very special presentation that will hopefully present to me some very presentable responses from you!
I am very happy to announce that The Runescape Blog has made its first Vlog (Video Blog!) and we are possibly the first Runescape-centered blog to do so! It is quite a large video, around thirty-five minutes long and i have embedded it below. Enjoy!
If you did not already know I am going to describe to you the sort of fun you can have at the house parties in world 31, Rimmington. These have been a big part of my life as a Runescaper because they are simply so exciting! Each time I enter a dungeon I know, due to the thousands of different variables, that I am going to have a completely new experience each time. The best part is that I know every time I will have fun!
As recently stated, there are many variable situations included in a session of ‘house partying’ in RS and because of this I found it difficult to write a succinct article about it. However, I came up with the idea of videoing myself partaking in my favorite past-time of all; this has allowed me to cut out much of the heavy information that was weighing down my old article.
Now that all of this has been said, let us get down to the real business of partying!
The fundamentals of house parties.
Such fundamentals are:
- The roles of different players (e.g pkers: mages, rangers, meleers, tankers, pures) or; (skillers, people who are using different furnishings found in the house/dungeon for skills) or; (party-hosts or people who are achieving a goal, these players are usually the hosts of the dungeon/house and are inviting people in to share their achievement.)
- The fact that if you are in the dungeon/combat ring, you are most likely going to be attacked.
- The fact that you are most likely going to encounter mean spirited people who will try to annoy you; just ignore them :).
- The fact that you are definitely going to have some form of enjoyment!
House parties are dynamic.
In every party you will see different:
- House layouts (including dungeon layouts!)
- Monsters
- Furnishings
- People
- Parties
- and the list goes on and on…
Because of this each party is different to the last!
How to gain maximum enjoyment from the party:
Bring friends!
I can not stress how important this is! Going to a party on RS without your friends is not only rude but it is also very boring! Not only is it more fun with friends but it opens up the party for you for several reasons:
- You get to share the experience which creates memories… memories strengthen friendships!
- You can team up on other people and completely decimate them :-p
- You can have fun battles against each other to see who can claim victory!
- amongst many other things… you are going to have to find out for yourselves!
Utilise a strong arsenal of weapons and armour
This is another very important point that I must stress. If you bring poor weapons and armour you will get killed far too often. It is in your best interests to purchase the best weapons and armour you can afford so that you can do your best in the dungeon! (Looking cool also goes a long way with some of the people who go to house parties :-p!)
Have your wits about you
House parties are fun, however, they can also be the breeding ground for fighting. Make sure you do your best to steer clear from this sort of behaviour… if you cause a fight the best thing you can do is to just ignore it!
Don’t be too serious
Dying is not shameful, nor is it annoying. Don’t flame other people if they kill you and you respawn outside the portal. Just accept that you did not win…. that time :D!
To sum this article up:
- House parties are fun!
- Bring friends, good weapons and armour, your wits and your happy face to have the most fun!
- I hope to see you at some House parties in the near future!
Now go watch the video!
Ta ta for now :-).

35 minute useless video. The whole article seems pointless to me :$
That’s fine. Perhaps this article is not orientated towards a player such as yourself.
Very interesting article and video. Really opened my eyes and revealed what house parties actually are, why they’re fun – etc.
Video was a bit too long, and did get dull toward the end – but I say keep it up with the vids
Thanks for the feedback Stasik.
I’ll make sure to keep producing videos. The more I practice making them, the better they will become.

i love house partys, especialy stealing ideas of things that work well and look good from other peoples houses and putting them in my own.
I think everything was fine to me. I just wish you could have paused the video as you typed so we didn’t sit there for a few seconds waiting for a message
true nice vid
Lol Mith Addict, I wouldn’t necesarrily call it “stealing” ideas, more like, taking a page from their book.
