Its been over 12 hours now since the update that ruined everything. I thought that by now there would have been another update to fix the last one. I still can't play. There goes my entire day off. Am I going to be able to play ever again? Oh well, there is always texas hold em.

Howdy.
Apologies to everyone that has been effected by the graphical issues that reared up with the latest update. In case you haven't visited the tech section of the forums, there is a temporary fix that will work until our tech teams track down the root cause.
Posted by Mod Rawny in the 'Graphical issues' thread (Quick find code: 25-26-997-63996032) in the Tech forums:
Hi everybody! :D
To anyone who is experiencing graphical glitches since today's update (particularly in DirectX mode) - our development team are indeed aware of these issues and are dealing with them accordingly.
In the mean time, please try switching your in-game graphical display mode to OpenGL or Software. This should hopefully prevent the problems and allow you to play while the developers are working on fixing the underlying issues :)
To switch display modes, you need to head to the in-game graphics options, either via:
The login screen click the spanner icon in the top-right corner
The lobby (after logging in) click the Options tab on the right
In-game, click the cog icon in the bottom-right and then click the button with a screen/monitor icon
Once you get the Graphics Options interface, click the button labelled Custom. From here, you should be able to switch into Software or OpenGL display modes.
If you have difficulty accessing the graphics options interface, then you can force the game to re-run the auto-setup on loading by deleting the files:
preference.dat
preferences2.dat
In the folder:
%USERPROFILE%\jagexcache\runescape\LIVE
After deleting said files, load up the game and you should be able to change display modes after completing the auto-setup.
Please feel free to post back if this does not resolve the problem or if you have any further queries.

The original posts says:
> Secondly, from now right until the 21st of October, you may experience some strange,
> supernatural occurrences.
Unless, in the unlikely event, you mean 21 Oct 2013, I suspect you mean 31 Oct, since it's already past 21 Oct 2012.
Soz if this has already been pointed out, but I'm not going to read 170 posts to find out....

jagex-- i usually enjoy your events, but this one and quite honestly this one is not an event its more of a game. what happened to the fun quests that you guys would put out for the holidays with stragne storylines and some holiday spirit. so we get to kill some ghosts and ge a cape, no offense jages but thats a cop out. are you guys too busy messing with the combat beta garbage to put effort into what people actually want like a real event?? i have been a staunch supporter of you guys for a long time, but i am starting to run out of reasons to support you guys. you are so different from years ago... where is the old jagex we all loved???????
