Since October 14th of 2022 I am continuing to lose ranks even at 200Million XP in Defence?
I didn’t play for a long time However... I’ve paid my membership for Years without missing a payment? Why am I still losing ranks??? I’ve lost 8 ranks since October 14th and now ranked at 300 from 292??? I could understand if my membership was not paid. But I’ve been paid for the past 15 years! Can someone please let me know why?

Because dormant 200 mill accounts that only need to log in once every 3 months (i think) get to retain their original rank overall, thus these bozo's just log in once every 3 months and demote you, even if you are a daily gamer ...

Come the next comp cape event quest or skill they will all become like the undead and be reborn for a day or a week and then disappear for months again lol

its the people that left and now came back that had 200m def before you.

if all accounts didnt get removed from hiscores for inactivity. then that would be your real true rank in def.

mine go up and down all time, its quite interesting. during a time im losing some ranks in a few skills it shows people are returning to the game.

so yeah its just 8 people returning to rs that got 200m def before you. it has nothing to do with payment on your side. if you were to leave rs for a few years then come back you will still be ranked where you should be

This is sad. I didn’t play for a long time, however like I said paid them for services. Part of my services is access to high scores. I never went ftp. If I went ftp, yes I should lose ranks, I believe. Even if I came back to mems after spending time in ftp. It seems logical. My case doesn’t. When something means a lot to you, you still pay for it even if your not able to play due to “life/even deaths” happening. In my case I had 2 kids pass away! Yeah I took a lot of time off. What they are doing is wrong! I worked hard for that 200Mil and rank without the boosts today’s players have. I can only assume what your telling me is true. Would be nice if Jagex would post exactly how everything works with high scores. Maybe they have and it’s hiding in some thread.
Thanks for the replies guys and I wish the best of luck to you in life and in game.

what?

i dont think you have understood what has been explained to you.

we are not saying you went ftp. we are saying the people that got 200m defence before you went ftp then they were removed from hiscores. then you got 200m. and now they are back. hence why they are back in their rightful place in the hiscores above you (meaning you have gone down a rank)

i dont really know how else to explain it. you are rank 300 in def, the 299 people ahead of you got 200m def before you. theres probably more too that could claim their rank back but havent logged in recently. as said all my ranks go up and down all time for this reason

either way there is nothing wrong. and this is how the hiscores work you dont need jagex to come in here to say. this is how it works

if someone gets a 200m when they come back they will be put on the hiscores where they are suppose to be. the only exception to this is overall rank.

these are my rank changes the past month, some gone up some gone down. its just what happens. cause people leave and some come back. simple

Because botted accounts have priority in the HS.
