    @JagexSupport Hello Jagex For the past two and a half years I’ve been writing a Novel spin-off of your game Runescape. Recently I’ve been getting closer to finishing my novel after much time and money put into this project. But in this, I want to know what legal problems/troubles

  • osrsbuddaball Osrsbuddaball (@osrsbuddaball) reported

    @OldSchoolRS good fix team 👍🏽

  • Christi66358347 Christina Patterson (@Christi66358347) reported

    @royalkneegrow @JagexSupport I also experienced this, i contacted support service and they didn’t do anything about but @AstroCyber4 on Twitter helped me get regain access to my account✅...They’re trustworthy and reliable....:

  • Randollio R  (@Randollio) reported

    Been starting at the RuneScape login screen for a good 2 hours now. 0 progress has been made.

  • OsrsBooth Booth (@OsrsBooth) reported

    @A_BladeRS @OldSchoolRS kind weird to me they fix redclicking here but allow it in like every other content. im not moaning about the update, i think they should fix it. would like it to be consistant accross the game tho

  • IzzyOtter Izzy Otter (@IzzyOtter) reported

    Tempted to go back to halo 5 until they fix this 50xp per game bs. At least you can level up without it requiring 20 5-10 min games. If i wanted grinding luke that, id play runescape or classic wow.

  • RSJerreuh Jerreuh (@RSJerreuh) reported

    @senken12 @OldSchoolRS Has nothing to do with this fix though.

  • theShambles00 Shambles (@theShambles00) reported

    @OldSchoolRS Surely an easier way to fix this would be to just not render the room outside the barrier? There's no reason for it to be visible in the first place. Sure you could still red click on items on the ground, but it'd require considerably more effort + setup to do so.

  • ears_silent Christopher C. (@ears_silent) reported

    @JagexSupport Is Nex's unique drop rate broken or too high? 1020 kills. NO drops at all. It doesn't make sense.

  • Cassand84410230 Cassandra Cooper (@Cassand84410230) reported

    @royalkneegrow @JagexSupport I was recommended to @jetfixcare. He was able to recover my locked account in less than an hour. He is legit and highly recommended for the service. Go contact him now to get your account back

  • A_BladeRS Hobbit (@A_BladeRS) reported

    @OsrsBooth @OldSchoolRS Agreed, they probably will, but know that the effect on these item prices have been minimal since it got discovered a year or two ago, nex however is new and this method could significantly reduce price due to increase kph, good first fix of many to go hopefully

  • jamespowercolt James Gillanders (@jamespowercolt) reported

    @JagexSupport and are you genuinely saying outside of this broken recovery system there is zero way to get my account locked down/recovered. No support I can to on a 1on1 basis to get this resolved. No premier support. Nothing?!?

  • Adt447 andrew (@Adt447) reported

    @JagexSupport Good morning, been trying to play my favorite game after coming off a little break and have had some issues. I uninstalled the game several times. Updated all my drivers on my laptop. The Nxt client nor does the steam client work.

  • RelapsedWorld Relapsed (@RelapsedWorld) reported

    @NessPhace I'm going to bed, download runescape or world of warcraft any problem solved . If you need to feel like your in detention then apex. You wanna be suspended then warzone.

  • JohnEWrightIV John W (@JohnEWrightIV) reported

    @OldSchoolRS This fix red click?

  • ears_silent Christopher C. (@ears_silent) reported

  • ghost_lanz King Kazma (@ghost_lanz) reported

    @theShambles00 @Wollesosrs @OldSchoolRS Definitely doesnt require deeper engine work, instant fix being witnheld to confuse you in particular

  • CrankyGuardian Cranky (@CrankyGuardian) reported

    @SitScrub This was the major issue for me, the longevity compared to RuneScape just wasn't there. Way too quick to level skills.

  • acenine11 Ace♠️ (@acenine11) reported

    Nex problems. Ecumenical key shards do not drop all the time, 4 times so far they “drop” but aren’t on the ground. Also, sometimes when I enter the room, the ground is see through and my frame rate crashes to 10 with an RTX 3060ti. Fix these please.. @OldSchoolRS

  • OSRS2ndBase 2nd Base (@OSRS2ndBase) reported

    @OR13NT_OSRS @JagexSupport @JagexTyran How would switching to the Steam client fix it?

  • Luca_AU_ Luca 🇦🇺 (@Luca_AU_) reported

    @Livey_ @OldSchoolRS yeah, I'd have to agree that not stalling a boss is a good fix.

  • KrisSchultz16 Kris Schultz (@KrisSchultz16) reported

    @JagexSupport nothink in there helps my issue, i was tempted banned for cheating/macroing, i dont do that ****, no macros no auto clicker nothink just use the mouse to click whats needed. i want to talk to someone about it not an automated reply.

  • RSGalvanise Jay | Galvanise (@RSGalvanise) reported

    @JagexHelpSamo @JagexSupport So yeah, another month, still sad over here. Any updates/timeframe for fix?

    @JagexSupport The mimecast issue I brought up in November is still not resolved. Still unable to forward phishing mails for you guys to handle the take-downs. :/
