RuneScape Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • batwoodd Brenton (@batwoodd) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Why don’t you just work with these people to emplent approved things into the official client, this helps solve the problem.

  • MermaidInLoveXO Mermaid Knight 🧜‍♀️⚔️ (@MermaidInLoveXO) reported

    Somehow I remembered my old RuneScape login credentials.

  • CerpinTaxt_OSRS Cerpin Taxt (@CerpinTaxt_OSRS) reported

    @PTFOrs @OldSchoolRS I'm guessing the higher-ups see: membership is down > add temp mode > membership go up for 3 months > people quit again > repeat But if they actually focussed just on main game and retention this wouldn't be such a problem

  • youramutt Youramutt (@youramutt) reported

    @Sebbtw1 @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport Exactly.. just simply don't pvm with anyone.. because the company isn't capable of foxing their problems.. I see

  • RS_DocJoe Doc Joe (@RS_DocJoe) reported

    @JagexHelpFrost @youramutt @JagexSupport Seriously? You're putting this problem ON ME?? How am I supposed to know if someone has used RWT? Even my closest of friends?? Jagex's incompetence is just staggering.

  • Sebbtw1 Sebbtw (@Sebbtw1) reported

    @youramutt @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport This is so bad, nobody is gonna want to pvm anymore unless it's solo. Nobody is gonna trust anybody and nobody will want to group pvm anymore. Jagex is creating more problems than it's fixing. Absolutely braindead *****.

  • eco_holder Eco Holder (@eco_holder) reported

    @JagexSupport I got a rwt warning and a temp ban on the other. Wasn’t even on for 60 days and have never rwt. Only thing I’ve ever done is swapped gold from my main to my other main. Why am I given a warning without even being asked about it? What can be done to fix this.

  • TrishaOmaly thebeachbabe (@TrishaOmaly) reported

    @TooBlanc @JagexLight @JagexSupport You got banned ? Just send a message to #CYBERNETIC01 on Instagram. he’s a pro in unbanning service. I recommend them

  • PygmyRs Pygmy (@PygmyRs) reported

    @JagexHelpFrost @youramutt @JagexSupport Looks like I’ll never be trading anyone ever again. I’m so glad y’all acknowledged the ‘problem’ - it’s now time to fix it because it’s idiotic and unfair👍

  • R__S__3__ Ry Fi (@R__S__3__) reported

    @RuneScape Spent the better part of the day RWTing 300t, using untraceable methods. Thanks for being the worst game I can say I spent any time playing. Can't wait to see the market crash. I wish you good luck fixing this issue. PS, I win..

  • Bewear1835 Bewear1835 🏳️‍🌈 (@Bewear1835) reported

    @OldSchoolRS This is a waste of Dev time, let's focus on the actual game please. Leagues, DMM, Ironman, UIM, HCIM, and GIM is enough, we don't need anymore game modes, you guys can't even make 2200 worlds properly with the unplayable lag that you guys refuse to fix

  • Dong_Chan00 **** Chan (@Dong_Chan00) reported

    @OldSchoolRS When will you implement some sort of multi client launcher from the jagex launcher? As of right now, you can only login and launch a specific client for the logged in account. I don't see why we can't log into the jagex launcher with multiple accounts or have the launcher launch

  • em_west_ Emily West (@em_west_) reported

    @rsvapd @JagexSupport Hey mate I had similar issue but the support service wasn't helpful not until I was referred to gursslin_tools on Instagram. You could message him if you don't mind

  • BlitzProg Blitz (@BlitzProg) reported

    @JagexSupport Hi there Jagex, is playing on pre-nov 2010 account + no name change is a security risk? My father got a "Too many login in attempts" on his account today with a single attempt - and is worried someone might have tried bruteforce & disrupted his login.

  • TooBlanc RippleStoical (@TooBlanc) reported

    @JagexLight @JagexSupport Hi there i have appealed my account to get unbanned after i was orignally banned for using runelite when it was unofficial managed to get it unbanned but now it wont let me log back on! im so upset ive never broken any rules on rs 😞 RSN: Lothiriel

  • gobblinfker Goblin (@gobblinfker) reported

    @OldSchoolRS fix pvp

  • ZiffyrGG ziffyr (@ZiffyrGG) reported

    @_lobotomyx @ciroapex well damn, i guess i am just behind on it for sure. i just know i have way less issues playing other games when it comes to the same problems i have in apex. i don’t know much about how tick rate would change the game, i just know tick rate from runescape.

  • ThePureSeb Lagunarium (@ThePureSeb) reported

    @greg1261 @OldSchoolRS bro i fuckinn want never log so bad too but server lag is getting rediculous just pointing out something that needs fixing first as PRIO

  • ImZerkee Alex | Zerkee (@ImZerkee) reported

    @youramutt @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport I don’t have any non-iron accounts to play these days, so hopefully isn’t an issue I encounter. I do feel worry towards any of my friends though, because you never know.

  • youramutt Youramutt (@youramutt) reported

    @FilthyCazualBoi @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport Exactly. Makes no sense brother.. and needs to change, hopefully they can recognize their wrongs and fix them before more people end up in the same boat.

  • RockTheRedRS_ Rock The 🅱️ed (@RockTheRedRS_) reported

    @OldSchoolRS so many things to fix/streamline in the main game, hard no from me

  • YeaDudeSame nah cba tbh (@YeaDudeSame) reported

    @jrb6299 @OldSchoolRS Authenticator has workarounds, not sure which but they exist. Bank pin is useless, if they get on your account then account security has failed. It protects your bank, that's all. If your login email/username leaks (you cannot change this) you can get locked out indefinitely.

  • Jal_Zek Jal Zek (@Jal_Zek) reported

    @JagexHelpFrost @youramutt @JagexSupport **** you frost and dorota you’re both little rats. Generally speaking you can’t control what anyone you pvm does on their own time if they rwt it’s not anyone else’s problem so no one else should get a ban for someone else’s actions. Deserve to be fired both of you.

  • LiquorKelly Liquor Kelly (@LiquorKelly) reported

    @GroupIron401 @OldSchoolRS I had similar issue but the support service wasn't helpful not until I was referred to coderjeni_dev on Instagram. She is helpful

  • youramutt Youramutt (@youramutt) reported

    @TylerBr95090567 @JagexSupport Yep, yet if you have legit evidence to back you up because their system made a mistake.. they will turn a blind eye and not fix it and leave the current system in place.. that we all know ain't working AT ALL.

  • AlexHimselff Alex (@AlexHimselff) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Please stop adding more game modes and focus on dead content (castle wars, trouble brewing, bounty hunter pking, wildy bosses being ****...). Leagues are fine, but they don't have to last 3 months. 1-2 months of leagues per year is more than enough imo.

  • jrb6299 JRB (@jrb6299) reported

    @YeaDudeSame @OldSchoolRS Its just so overblown. Is it perfect, no. But if you don't do sketchy things like visit botting/p server/phishing site links/acc share you're fine 99.999% of the time. They would need your email, email password, RS password, plus your login name if its diff than ur email. Idk man

  • ColeGrandall Cole Grandall (@ColeGrandall) reported

    @youramutt @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport I feel your pain man. I've had a college buddy who got falsely banned for borrowing a tbow from someone who previously RWT'd. Jagex needs to figure out their **** or just allow RWT if they can't figure out a concrete solution to these issues.

  • HalfHungRat Matthew Powers (@HalfHungRat) reported

    @youramutt @JagexHelpFrost @JagexSupport I think buyers and sellers are mutually to blame, there wouldn't be any sellers without buyers and vice versa. Jagex has a problem where they ban so heavily for the smallest "offense" and just say "sorry, can't change it." Poor support imo.

  • Zeleharian Zeleharian (@Zeleharian) reported

    @JagexSupport Can I please get some help unlocking my old RS account? I'm not sure why the automated system has been denying my appeals. I would like some help from an actual human if possible. My account is extremely old so I think that is causing issues with automated recovery.
