I appreciate that you responded so quickly, but i think the best way to solve this is Instanced rooms. Could you at least offer us these in the next poll or start a new poll now? It would remove all looting completely. Or can you tell us why you can't offer it if that is the case?
That is a good solution, but that would not be possible to deliver it in the short term although it is something we want to look at soon.
Okay thank you Mat, do you have a time frame on that at all, i think john mentioned on stream it was possible now, would be great to get this asap as it eliminates crashing too

make the loot appear for 10mins for the person who died and after that everyone should see it
If that were the case, there would be no risk at all fighting Corp.
With this amount of DDOS this 2mins is pretty sad.. Should be 10 mins untill this DDOS problem is solved for good. After that the 2mins is alright.

So now those items **** are gone forever? Boy thats even more to be upset about then the level 100 combat requirement to be honest. Your friends can't help you now and your items worth millions? They can go **** gone out of existence and it can be completely out of your control when it happens. Really hands down your guys worst update to date and one i'd be ashamed of.
Then go pick some flax instead of trying to kill the strongest monster in oldschool, if you can't take the risk

And none of this addresses the problems of the constant random disconnects happening all over osrs or the constant random lag spikes. This is only one very small band aid to cover up a cannonball sized hole.
There will still be looters there all you eliminated were those under level 100. We need a fix in place to protect players fully under any circumstance any where in osrs. This is only a small fix for a small bit of content in osrs. We need a lot more especially if you expect memberships to be renewed and new players to stay.
I know i do not find it fun to know i can have a lag spike or random disconnect at any time out of my control and lose millions of gp and many hard hours of work due to some thing out of my control. Does that sound like a game you'd want to play or pay for?
Other work is continuing on the network issues as we said in the news post.
As for looting - it is not possible to look a dead players loot in the Corp's cave. If you die in the Corp's cave your loot only appears to you, no one else. If there is a looter in the cave, he will not see any items from players who die there.
If people are attacking the network to gather loot from players dying at Corp then this change should help.

These interruptions are lasting only a few seconds so that shouldn't be an issue.

You do realize that now if you die or the server crashes by this change you lose absolutely everything on you right? And you do not even realize it do you?

I was out yesterday for 3 minutes, and like you said a few seconds? It's a few seconds less getting back to your grave.

But its more then a little extreme. Especially considering how poor the servers are right now. If it goes down while your fighting and you die while disconnected your items are gone forever. If your browser crashes and you die its gone forever. If you dc and it takes you a while to log back in your items are gone forever. Really not a good choice tbh
