This is really starting to get on my nerves

How long must we avoid dangerous activities? This happens EVERYDAY (without fail) and occurs very frequently, too. It's extremely frustrating even with these "safety measures" currently in place.

I mean you say you're working on resolving it, but everyday it seems the same and I'm sure in the "coming weeks and months", we'll still be suffering from the same problems. This DDoS attack or whatever it is has been going on since December 2014 pretty much, and hasn't really stopped since then, it's now February and I'm not noticing ANY changes on your end.. like.. it doesn't even feel like it's harder for them to knock out your servers - they seem to be able to do it with ease.

Obviously raging will not resolve this any faster, but I have to let out some anger, or it'll consume me.

You think everything is all fine and dandy, then BAM! the servers stop responding, disconnect, and you die. So annoying.

I could avoid dangerous activities and just afk, but seriously, I actually want to play the game you know? Not afk and wait until you combat this problem.

This is absolutely ridiculous. I've had nothing but constant disconnections on both the web based and client game for days. What the hell am I paying a subscription for when I can't even play the game!!! Jagex you have literally no right charging people for a service they are not getting. You can resolve this, or you will lose me a player along with (I'm sure) a lot more!!!

I mean come on Jagex team..
Not only You increased a membership price and yet you do not want to spend money to protect Runescape servers from those DDOS's attacks.

Being #1 MMOR** game should have a #1 game's quality and such thing as servers production should #1 priority I suppose.

I am playing Runescape since 2004, more than 10 years now and I am quite happy when it is not lagging. Would be more than great to keep it that way. There are plenty of players who would agree with me that disconnections and constant lag does not give a motivation to keep playing.

If I was able to somehow help running such game company I would invest some money to keep a future profit growing and not losing players or getting rants from them or "riots" or whatever else which is not helping a community and company itself.

If it was just the DDos attacks i would be a little bit more sympathetic but poor gameplay experience through lag has bee going on for ages. Too long. I don't seem to remember this type of problem before they brought in the new html5 gameplay thingy or whatever and that was with thousands of bots on each world. it's not been right for too long. I have 2 paying accounts and i am seriously thinking of going non mem until this is sorted & sorted properly.
