Connection lost… trying to reestablish

AquarianPixi is talking about getting "Connection lost… trying to reestablish" message during a battle. Indeed, it is one of the most dreadful messages you can get in Runescape. For me it is the most dreadful one. I can handle death, but I hate those awful seconds/minutes of reconnecting when I am absolutely helpless and don't know whether my character was able to hold his ground or not.

P.S. It might be a rhetorical question, but why so many players are upset with today's update? Yes, nature runes are likely to get cheaper, but not by a lot. Extreme Magic potion got nerfed a bit, was it that crucial? New powerful spells were added into the regular magic book - wasn't it a good addition? Finally, extreme potions are now allowed in safe minigames - yay!

Nerfed Extreme Potions

An article from the Informer about the recent Herblore update and fate of the Extreme potions. Yes, they were quietly nerfed by Jagex, so they could not be used in any PvP combat situations, including minigames. I still like the potions and will use them on Slayer assignments. They also can and will be used to powertrain Herblore. By was the nerfing really nesessary? PvP worlds, ok, maybe... Though I don't think there are many pkers among players with 88+ herblore, it would only be a matter of time. But why forbid it in minigames?! That I totally don't understand.
