Does this mean you guys are trying to resolve the lag problem?
Whenever I have wars with my clan we all become extremely delayed =/

@ Mod William, You all always say you're making improvements to the servers, but before the 1st nuke there were, at any given time 200k to 300k players online. Over the DXPW there were 165k or so players online and lag wasn't just in crowded areas it was all over runescape.
The most noticeable affected skill was farming, which took 1.5X longer for crops to grow. It seemed that the farm ticks were slowed down on purpose.
Thanks for an apology, Mod William/Jagex, but anyone can say sorry and not really mean it.

Tbh the lag and login wasn't just a few people in some worlds. It was pretty widespread during *peak hours. Normally I would rage for not being able to login during dxwp. Although Jagex did apologize about it and I appreciate that.

Why does this failure warrant action? What about the previous xp weekend. Or the EOC opening. Or world 77. Or ANY event you have run in the last year? It will be VERY interesting to see how much time it takes to improve the situation, as you have promised here once again.
