    When I moved to my colleges network I kept my highschool network ID

  10. Network ID on Facebook Goes To 64 Bit User IDs · · Score: 3, Informative

    One thing to keep in mind is the userid is network ID + user ID for that network
    For my user ID the network ID takes up the first 6 digits

    Although I have heard that they stopped this practice and are just assigning IDs

  21. Re:*THE* grind on RuneScape Passes 1 Million Subscribers · · Score: 1

  22. *THE* grind on RuneScape Passes 1 Million Subscribers · · Score: 5, Informative

    This game will never be competition to the World, mainly because it's very grind focused. Sure there are quests, but only 100 or so when I was still playing (and at that all but 20 or so were for members only). These quests might get you a few levels if you're lucky and low level, but the majority of leveling is from the grind unlike the World where you get some actual levels from quests and there are a ton of quests.
