Andrew's explanation for the B-Day

Andrew's explanation for the B-Day events. Nice and clear.

I don't get why people are so upset about Jagex not rolling back and not banning people who were killing Bosses during the B-Day glitch.

Common, you were there, you understood that something funky was going on and you wisely decided to stay away and not abuse the glitch. Great. If you did it because you didn't want unfair advantage for your character, you achieved your goal and shouldn't be upset. But if you did it for the fear of Jagex's repercussions and now regret your actions and want other players to be punished because of this regret and envy - shame on you! I find righteousness which is based on fear of punishment quite disgusting.

Runescape B-Day or History in Making

Bug Day anyone?

What a strange coincidence, just yesterday we've been talking about the way how major bug abuse cases tend to become major milestones in Runescape history. And today we got the whole package:

• Mass Boss Kicking caused by monsters not fighting back
• Items lent to other players disappearing (presumably forever) - rumor, probably not true
  
• Inflated drops in PvP worlds
• People dying during Pyramid Plundering not being able to get off the spikes (shudder)
• Player owned houses messed up
  
• Summoning not working
• Banks and GE not accessible
• Ranging from distance not working
• Firemaking, Woodcutting and pretty much every other skill affected at some degree

Not much bug abusing, though, except for piling Bosses and getting unfairly huge drops in PvP. Plus Jagex was able to fix the problems rather quickly. I wouldn't expect many players (if any) being banned over this. And no roll back!

No roll back effectively sealed this B-Day in Runescape History.

Yeap, I think we just got another milestone to come along with D-Day and Falador Massacre.
