RuneScape Reverses, Apologizes For Bans


Here on the internet, we go by a policy of stuff happens. Unless you are licensing your engine in which case the blame can be placed on the engine creator. And when it comes to big updates like Jagex’s latest bot buster, you could also go by the Texas rule of you can’t make an omelette without accidentally shooting a customer or two. So when Jagex implemented a recent update, the result was a number of players being falsely banned.

Unfortunately, whilst updating our systems, a human error occurred which resulted in the accidental banning of a selection of online accounts. These bans have now been reverted and we will be rebooting the servers shortly to ensure that all accounts can log in as normal.

Some players are still reporting that their accounts have yet to be unbanned due to this mistake.
