Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RAWaholic1 Sean Lane (@RAWaholic1) reported

    @norftw @RuneScape They emailed me saying it was a fix for that, but clearly it wasn't as I still have the same issue.

  • naomirexx rex naomi (@naomirexx) reported

    @RosewoodSounds @JagexSupport I had same problem contact #eric_nett30 on Instagram he will definitely help you recover your account,he has 90% recovery rate

  • Wiggledd Liam (@Wiggledd) reported

    @JagexAyiza @OldSchoolRS But I hadn't actually seen that Gazette post, I'm guessing a lot of others also haven't as like me they probably don't read anything without a PvP related title. But it is nice to see at least a bit of transparency there on the ideas & acknowledgement of the issues going forward

  • JagexAsh Mod Ash (@JagexAsh) reported

    @SteMoore10 Your recollection of RuneScape's history might be a bit rose-tinted if you think this wasn't a problem back then. Even further back in RS Classic the Gowers felt forced to introduce disruptive things like the Fatigue system due to this kind of thing.

  • Billy23930900 Billy (@Billy23930900) reported

    @JagexSupport so I still can't connect to rs3 mobile on android. Every time I try to sign in it keeps sending me to your cookie policy page with no option to continue, when I press back it says sign in aborted? I can log in pc fine

  • CrowCynic Cynic Crow (@CrowCynic) reported

    @JagexSupport I followed all the support advice but nothing has worked. I'm using a Windows 10 computer that was built for me, not a laptop. This issue started 3 days ago, even though I hadn't changed anything on my computer. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

  • Swat_The_MVP Swat (@Swat_The_MVP) reported

    @OldSchoolRS I'm not experiencing any of this but if I do, can I report the issues through social media? Due to some disagreements in the past, I cannot use your official forums.

  • naomirexx rex naomi (@naomirexx) reported

    @Godisaparasite @JagexSupport I had same problem contact #eric_nett30 on Instagram he will definitely help you recover your account,he has 90% recovery rate

  • CorivvQC Corivv (@CorivvQC) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Idk if its the tob instances that make the world lag?

  • Cummstaah Its Cummstaah (@Cummstaah) reported

    @JagexSupport I tried to submit a recovery but it got denied, can I get a second look at it? I filled in the details the best I can, but the account is over 15 years old and my 10 year old self didn't document very well. The login username is "pixwilsmashu". Even if I knew the email address?

  • SauloFachi Saulo Fachi (@SauloFachi) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Hello. I need some help. I'm having the error 15. I tried everthing (change browser, pause firewall, use VPN...) and still having the same problem. I've lost my password. And now i'm trying to recover it, but this error dont let me do it. Can u guys help me?

  • CrowCynic Cynic Crow (@CrowCynic) reported

    @JagexSupport Also, I noticed that this graphic glitch only happens when I'm logged into the game, not in the lobby. I also notice it gets worse when they're is more light. There's still lines in the darker areas but it's far less noticeable.

  • MurdokKlown Murdokdaklown (@MurdokKlown) reported

    @JagexSupport Those links didn't help. I run into the same error every time I try.

  • ElonMuskStan Gurley (@ElonMuskStan) reported

    Is it a problem if I’ve listened to all the panic at the disco albums this week? Take me back to 2005 when I ****** kids on RuneScape

    @JagexSupport my login ID is dowon5

  • twotheseater twotheseater (@twotheseater) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Please fix the total worlds server lag while you’re at it, W450 and 415 are unplayable for any kind of pvm

  • Cute_Kitty92 CuteKitty/Kirsty (@Cute_Kitty92) reported

    @RuneScape I would but I'm having issues with the client textures aren't loading properly, some items in my Inventory are invisible and treasure hunter refuses to load properly I can't really play like that I can play on normal mode as it just crashed I play pm compatibility mode

  • Sirxi1 Sir xi (@Sirxi1) reported

    @JagexTyran @JagexSupport Can a real person look into my account. "Sir xi" it claims to be banned for real world trading. Never did anything like that. I had already daily issues with login limit when i was hunting crystal implings. So use a vpn. And now im banned?

  • OuterSpaceJase Jase 🔭 (@OuterSpaceJase) reported

    @OldSchoolRS I get lag (all characters pause for around 5 seconds) on W527 every few minutes, everyone on the world experiences it at the same time.

  • GoVinotinto Rodriguez (@GoVinotinto) reported

    @JagexSupport There is an error with the new accounts are being banned after a few hours of play by rtw, it happened to my iroman.

  • JagexAsh Mod Ash (@JagexAsh) reported

    @MaxwellFleming8 For account help you'd need the Support team rather than the content developers. They're JagexSupport on this platform. Please note that tweeting your login info can be bad for your security, by the way, so you might consider deleting that bit.

  • MagicMemorys MagicMemorys (@MagicMemorys) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Could this issue be reduced if servers were manually shut off and slow brought back online?

  • CorivvQC Corivv (@CorivvQC) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Fix world 416

  • JagexAsh Mod Ash (@JagexAsh) reported

    @DJokerio If there's real interest in something, and we can do it before players lose interest, yup, we may well do it. I disagree that we've added so many low-level quests, compared to the rate throughout RuneScape's history. And the equipment rebalance is addressing "core issues".

  • LastWordSword Phillip A. Batz, Unlicensed Complexity Philosopher (@LastWordSword) reported

    @JagexSupport [Level 107 Farming << Level 1 Farming] = Salve Nettles The fact that the puzzle rooms on the same floor get this right rather than wrong, proves just how easy the code fix is, and just how long ago it should have happened.

  • SobeDaPker Sobe (@SobeDaPker) reported

    @Wiggledd @OldSchoolRS It’s almost as if hiring under qualified , new to rs content developers to fix the games biggest issue wasn’t such a great idea after all..

  • TKruxed The Kruxed (@TKruxed) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Hasn't this always happened? with Runelite I can see my ping is stable but the same old familiar couple seconds of lag every now and then, has been worse today on world 364 which is my home world

  • xbright1x Xbright1 (@xbright1x) reported

    @JagexAsh @OldSchoolRS Is it possible to get the friends list and cc at login like from eoc / rs2 era ?

  • JagexAyiza Ayiza (@JagexAyiza) reported

    @Wiggledd @OldSchoolRS There's always more we could be doing, and I understand the feeling of past broken promises and false hopes. It's something we're trying to fix, hence us being cautious with more info and release dates etc.
