  • bwukbwuk af-fk it ye bwukbwuk (@bwukbwuk) reported

    @OldSchoolRS @elonmusk fix it?

  • SullivanD1995 dylan sullivan (@SullivanD1995) reported

    @_BaddKatt_ @RuneScape i really hope it can get fixed soon too, i started a fresh account on old school and im almost to total level 700 already 🙃 seems everytime i have an issue i dont get much help, had a 15 yr account get stolen an my appeals denied to get back about 20 times

  • closyrn Carlos (@closyrn) reported

    @OldSchoolRS You guys need to fix it faster that’s too long I’m losing days as mems 🤬

  • THD_27 THD27 (@THD_27) reported

    @DaemonRayge @OldSchoolRS you pay for a service, you get the service. If you dont get the service, normally companies give some type of compensation. Welcome to the adult world

  • RsMike_Ox_Long Mike (@RsMike_Ox_Long) reported

    @Becka_Plays @RuneScape ahh yes, that's a good point. I am not sure how that aspect of the login process works or if there is a workaround for this if they do decide to go in that direction

  • _BaddKatt_ Badd Katt (@_BaddKatt_) reported

    @SullivanD1995 @RuneScape Wow, cool you're at 700 nice, but I'm so sorry you lost your 15yr acct. I've been playing since 2007, member since 2012. I don't want to lose my acct either. With 300 million accts, looks like RS may need to hire/contract more IT people to handle all the issues.

  • DavidBirkin 🎄🎄 David Birkin 🎄🎄 (@DavidBirkin) reported

    @UkDazzer @nimraynn @RuneScape Without insulting the issue of Jagex being down, having almost instant fail overs for any large organisation, is best practices now. Imagine if cloudflare had a single datacenter, the internet would be down 90% of the time.

  • DavidBirkin 🎄🎄 David Birkin 🎄🎄 (@DavidBirkin) reported

    @UkDazzer @nimraynn @RuneScape Further to this, I would put most of the blame on the Datacenter itself, not having there own failovers. If they have a power issues, or other Critical Infrastructure fail, best practices is to have an auto failover to an alternate datacenter with < 5 mins downtime

  • LeeRobe32361492 Lee Roberts (@LeeRobe32361492) reported

    @BillyM2k you talking about the server crash with @OldSchoolRS too? relax it'll return brother.

  • DaemonRayge Daemon (@DaemonRayge) reported

    @StudzyWudzy @OldSchoolRS As much as I have my criticisms about that move, this was due to a power outage that literally shutdown the servers for not only Jagex, but everyone else who also leased or used servers on that site. Read the full post, dude.

  • skragus Bragus (@skragus) reported

    @Luhlevi @Geneevee @OldSchoolRS Maybe 2 days of membership or something, doubt it'll be anything crazy, a bond would be too much and crash them

  • Oheypeanut Kyle Fitzgerald (@Oheypeanut) reported

    @Switxhed @OldSchoolRS Few hours here and there is one thing, to have service completely down an entire day isn't the same. If you learn anything about IT/companies reliability ratings, 1 day is significant. Also irritating that they have been wasting time with "inclusivity updates" rather than a DRP

  • _BaddKatt_ Badd Katt (@_BaddKatt_) reported

    @SullivanD1995 @RuneScape Hi Dylan, Thank you for the reply. After The Wilderness Update, many RS3 players were reporting this same issue on PCs. I had to resort to standing in one place to play the game. Now, RS3 dumps me out (5min or less) even if I don't move around. Hopefully it will be resolved soon.

  • JoeRina52383151 Joe Rinaldi (@JoeRina52383151) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Fix the ******* game ********

  • SullivanD1995 dylan sullivan (@SullivanD1995) reported

    @_BaddKatt_ @RuneScape hey there, i have had the same issue as well, hope to hear back how to fix it soon, i had to resort to old school again just to get my fix

  • AndrewV83856411 Jaaaaa (@AndrewV83856411) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Money dupe glitch. Just a big cover up

  • frankenbienz Dev (@frankenbienz) reported

    @Real_OBWood @ReiMakeroons @OldSchoolRS Then go take care of those things instead of staring at the login screen all day.

  • Aggroblut Aggroblut (@Aggroblut) reported

    @JagexAllstar @RuneScape @OldSchoolRS I'm really curious and confused. Isn't clustering key service across multiple datacenters an absolute basic?

  • RanarrBrothers Ranarr Bros (@RanarrBrothers) reported

    @elonmusk please buy @OldSchoolRS and fix it for me

  • RSSnivic Snivic (@RSSnivic) reported

    @RuneScape It's fine that the servers are down, **** happens. BUT it really bothers me that my streak of doing daily challenges will be broken by this XD

  • SmartassSimon Simon K (@SmartassSimon) reported

    runescape servers down wtf am I supposed to do all day at work

  • Austing14758578 Austin graham (@Austing14758578) reported

    @You_rc2 @OldSchoolRS Well we pay for a service and don’t get it if it was internet or u electricity u would be asking for a refund for the time u weren’t able to use the service u pay for

  • milslovato k ¡! ❞ (@milslovato) reported

    excuse me @OldSchoolRS i just wanna play osrs to forget all my life problems

  • JoeyDunnn Cruzpkk (@JoeyDunnn) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Is runescape done forever?????? FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE I WANT TO PLAY

  • SmUX2k Introvertive Photography (@SmUX2k) reported

    @RuneScape The real question is how the hell does ONE DATA CENTRE take down an entire service that has servers throughout the world? And why did you allow this to happen? You had one point of failure that could take down everything and you let it continue to be a sole point of failure!

  • Herb12414750 Herb (@Herb12414750) reported

    @OldSchoolRS @FakeDitto It's really not a big deal. The biggest problem is we just want to play. We know it's not your fault @OldSchoolRS If you wanted to not charge game time for the day that would be cool, but not necessary.

  • Percyy98 Luke purcell (@Percyy98) reported

    @OldSchoolRS How am I suppose to make a living of my inferno cape service if you can’t even keep the game online!!! I need to pay my rent jagex 🤬

  • Mynheer_RS Mynheer (@Mynheer_RS) reported

    @B0aty @OldSchoolRS Curious if using a single data center like Bungie did back in the day before the mass server crash is still even a good idea… I mean, I still even save photos that are in the cloud in other places, because I don’t trust it to be completely infallible. Especially a 3rd party. >.>

  • RealKRG KRG (@RealKRG) reported

    @RuneScape Seems like someone attacked your data servers. An outage of this scale seems like a targeted attack.
