I've sent numerous emails to tipoff*jagex, but I've had no reply, not even a reply from a mod in-game.
So I'd say it's basically pointless using the email.

All of the information sent to that address is checked over, you may well not receive a response but it does not mean that the information has gone unnoticed.

Then can you please explain why the person who I reported through the tipoff email is still running around and attacking worlds and looting other peoples items?

Gravestones

5 - 15minutes + bless I agree with as some places are much harder to get to here rather than on RS3.

To keep death sort of an item sink, a proposed change to gravestones would be that they only hold 3-5 more of your most valuable items protected on death. Former RS3 Completionist, On the road to Max old school

Thanks, hopefully those disconnects will be gone soon enough.

As for Gravestones, I would not really like this. I feel the Old School death mechanics are a big part of the game and with Gravestones, I never felt like my items were at any risk. although, once the issues are resolved and death is reverted the normal, I wouldn't mind seeing an option to extend your timer (e.g. normal 1 min before other players could see and you could pay npc to extend to 5 minute or such).

I'd love to have those Gravestones that can be blessed, purchasing headstones from Father Uhrney or whatever his name is from lumbridge.

Graves could range from:

• 250k for 2 minute Grave.
• 1,000k for 5 minute Grave.
• 2,500k for 10 minute Grave.
• 5,000k for 15 minute Grave.

Grave's will be optional, therefore upon release you will NOT get a gravestone, it'll have to be purchased; call it Item Insurance.

Feel free to reply, do not argue my idea, I will not be responding to this thread, it's just an idea for Jagex to look over.

Thanks for Reading Old School Team.

My problem i have with grave stones is the short time protection. Many games and sites attacked can be kept offline for hours on end if they want to. So far we have experienced short burst attacks that only last a bit under a minute. Why? Because that is all they need to be able to loot you. But now that it is 10 minutes will we see attacks that last longer? I'm hoping not as you can not loot other players as the items never become visible to others.

I'd prefer to just lose the items lost on death mechanic altogether as a permanent solution that allows players to be safe and allows you plenty of time to fix these problems. And it protects from other new attacks after you fix the current ones. This update to death mechanics still allows players to be bothered by the dc's and gives these attackers a reason to maintain attacks longer just so players lose their items altogether.

The UK worlds are no better i've tried almost all of them and have experienced dc's on all of them thus far i've been on. This will be a great experiment though to see how these attackers tip their hands. If though they do decide to keep a bombard of attacks aimed at the servers for 9+ minutes to cause players to lose items i hope you finally consider throwing out the death mechanic where we lose items on death for good.
