    @OldSchoolRS every single dmm tournament has had the same "ddos attacks" and jagex is the only company that has this kind if issues this often but dont worry its not your fault, just admit its your fault and stop trying to cover it up everyone knows

  • ImJoJoPhantom

    @OldSchoolRS when will you fix the server stuttering that is effecting a pretty good portion of the playerbase. you've been aware of it since april.

  • ImJulianPerry
    Julian (@ImJulianPerry) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Hopefully the disastrous DMM lag and complete lack of DDoS protection (something PvP players deal with) leads more people to vote NO on the GIM polls. Voting no is the one thing you can do to get Jagex's attention.

  • MentosTheGod
    Blake (@MentosTheGod) reported

    @OldSchoolRS As soon as the worlds started getting DDOS'd a real "Tournament" would have: paused it, changed servers/fixed the lag. but this is Lagex what can we expect? this has happened before and it will happen again.

  • NevenOsrs
    Neven (@NevenOsrs) reported

    These last two weeks have been the worst in my mind for @Jagex that I've experienced in a long time. Jagex needs to take a good hard look at itself and fix itself. #runescape #oldschoolrs #business101

  • rickBGD
    broertje (@rickBGD) reported

    @OldSchoolRS excuses and excuses, just ziggy servers etc etc, beta worlds were already lagging asf a week ago this is just a excuse cuz you guys never take the blame for your own mistakes u ziggys

  • brycito
    Brycito (@brycito) reported

    @OldSchoolRS embarrassing, Last fight was 2 people in the same clan who were just ******* around and the lag was absolutely ridiculous.

  • Dizzy_IXI
    Lyle Von Strangle (@Dizzy_IXI) reported

    @OldSchoolRS I bet jagex ddos the world's so the 1v1s would be **** and they can bin dmm forever.

  • StaticPA
    ztatic (@StaticPA) reported

    @KyleNidalee @DitterBitter @OldSchoolRS You can mitigate impact, literally impossible to prevent DDOS unless it's closed off completely

  • DoughPotatoBoi
    PotatoDoughBoi (@DoughPotatoBoi) reported

    @DitterBitter @ZuluOnly @OldSchoolRS pay out then replay pay out again. Don't fault the ones who got thru tonight, no their fault. Be a company that shows you do care and will fix the mistake while sticking to the script.

  • Spooxky_OSRS
    Spooxky 🦇 (@Spooxky_OSRS) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Worth your while finding source of the attacks and taking legal action against ddos idiots

  • ItsAyasira
    Aya (@ItsAyasira) reported

    @SamKemp3 @C_EngineerRS @OldSchoolRS The DDoS attack isn't their fault. Letting the tournament continue while people are playing on a 3 second delay and the game is constantly freezing is entirely their fault.

  • ItsAyasira
    Aya (@ItsAyasira) reported

    @SamKemp3 @C_EngineerRS @OldSchoolRS Also if you watched people playing the beta 1v1s, they had the same lag there and that wasn't a network attack. Very likely just Jagex trying to save face by blaming a DDoS.

  • noe_chevelle
    S550_Noe (@noe_chevelle) reported

    @OldSchoolRS so ddos attacks and you don’t want to do anything for the people that spent countless hours getting stats up and items ? just do what’s right and re-do the tourney.

  • CawkwellStuart
    Stuart Cawkwell (@CawkwellStuart) reported

    @JagexSupport is there a reason why I cannot login after being dced on w524? A couple of others on the same world are having the same problem?

  • BloomskyRS
    Bloomsky (@BloomskyRS) reported

    @JagexSupport cant seem to login to the game my network is fine. The runelite application and the normal runescape client both wont go past the loading bar?

  • ReisenLoverX
    ReisenLover (@ReisenLoverX) reported

    @gino121034 @lfurbi_ @OldSchoolRS quite a lot of uk based players are having issues even getting to the login screen right now even with still working internet everywhere else

  • RealityCS
    Adam🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RealityCS) reported

    @rschinstar @JagexSupport BT was the ISP i was having issue with, tried on a mobile hotspot using 3 and i still can't connect

  • ReubydooN
    Reubydoo NZ (@ReubydooN) reported

    @OldSchoolRS If you don't reroll peoples gear and redo the tourney then its an absolute joke of a company and people will never trust your team. What kind of company doesn't stop the event with such blatant issues. The HD fiasco and now this shows how terribly run this game is

  • Very_Ape_Ish
    Pelosi's Taint (@Very_Ape_Ish) reported

    @OldSchoolRS I'm absolutely done. Dupes, Rendi, Jed, rigged polls, **** updates, 117, Mod Mat K white knighting emilyispro, DDOS, no customer support, twisted bow spawns, rollbacks, nothing done about botting, usernames being stolen, streamer favoritism.. I could go one forever. You guys suck

  • DFHamz
    AR (@DFHamz) reported

    leave @OldSchoolRS alone, the top priority at the company is fixing the login issues

  • Xounz
    Thief (@Xounz) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Nobody believes this **** was DDOS'D. Your servers can hardly handle the LMS lobby. Both DMM Beta worlds were worse than this lag wise, Own your **** and just do better.

  • Smaajli
    Smajl (@Smaajli) reported

    @OldSchoolRS If you don't re-run the tournament I think you should stop hosting tournaments like this because you are not ready for it, how can worlds with 100-500 people lag? I don't think it's DDoS attack I think it's your ****** servers. #Lagex

  • FlashBastardDX
    Flash Bastard (@FlashBastardDX) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Spend a few bucks to fly finalists out, run the finals on a local connection. No ddos problem.

  • crownlessj
    Jouf (@crownlessj) reported

    @Pidbullz @OldSchoolRS We should stand united and not participate in another DMM for sure, but let's be honest, all these broken souls do nothing besides playing osrs all day anyway.

  • ImJulianPerry
    Julian (@ImJulianPerry) reported

    @OldSchoolRS "WHEN IT REGISTERS ™" I really hope this is the final DMM. Most players do not care about this mode, especially when failure isn't just frequent, but expected in advance. Players were leaving comments "in b4 DMM drama", "in b4 DDoS", etc. It's not like you didnt see it coming...

  • AnTic_GumBall
    Ryan Pillard (@AnTic_GumBall) reported

    @Pigmoneyyy @OldSchoolRS I'm confused, did you code the lag into the game? Lag should not be a part of any online game. Especially not in an online tournament server. Also, bad optics on telling the fan base to basically get over it after failing them once again. You should take a step back & reevaluate.

  • MatthewCisler
    Matthew Cisler (@MatthewCisler) reported

    @Chernohart @Torvesta @OldSchoolRS That would be ideal, but I’m sure it’s not 1 server computer per world. But virtualizing it shouldn’t be a problem. Preventing regulars from joining the server would cut down on a lot of problems if not all of them as well

  • KyleNidalee
    Kyle (@KyleNidalee) reported

    @StaticPA @DitterBitter @OldSchoolRS there are a bunch of measures you can take to prevent ddos attacks.

  • KnasKnas
    KnasKnas (@KnasKnas) reported

    @C_EngineerRS @OldSchoolRS To connect to a game server, an IP is needed. Its like your home address, except on the net. No VPN can fix that. Anyone knowing how to get an IP address can ddos if they know how to... I just wish they'd scrap dmm, and have something on-site instead to avoid server lag and ddos
