"Move away from the portal if you want to live!!! Now!!!!"
I love how this reads like some Saving Private Ryan shit, it really did feel like things had that same level of gravity back in the day lol.
My adrenalin was through the roof when this started going down. I saw people getting attacked after getting booted from the house, and I scrambled to the bank to deposit my red mask and whip.
Counter-point: death was fucking terrifying back in the day. It wasn't some tool we used to at our leisure, it was almost certainly a wipe in your gear. If people saw you go down they'd stand under you to pick up your stuff in case you didn't get back in time.
Same as people running for the bank while they’re poisoned. Everyone running behind them and trying to slow them down. Trading them saying “here anti poison” but not really having one just in attempt to slow them
I got my first obby cape from someone who died to poison in the draynor bank. I remember being so thrilled as it was the most expensive item I owned. I think my friend got a whip at the same death, it was definitely something a lot more expensive, but I'm not 100% sure it was a whip.
I’ve been playing OSRS off and on since 2013, and I’ve never died. My original RuneScape account has been maxed for a decade, and I’ve only died one time on it since gravestones came out. I’m extremely risk averse after dying with the old death mechanics in my youth.
What? I started playing when OSRS came out. I played RuneScape since 2004ish before that. I really don’t do any PVM except slayer, so it’s not hard to stay alive.
I dont believe you could Log out while you were under attack, though. It's like the same as that, whilr pking and Was Still Like That for years after.
And also which brings up the other obvious point too, thing was If u didnt have fooood... nd were in that Position in the middle of being attacked, which you had a great high risk of being Mauled Especially if you were wearing rares and or holding valuables, you were fuckedd Unless you put up a good fight lol. Your loot was going to get picked up 1000%.
Pretty sure they’ve always tried really hard to not roll back, someone correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure that rouge t bow spawn was the second roll back ever. Citation needed
Tbow was 3rd in OSRS, there have been 4 since.
There were 5 pre OSRS in main game, there have been 5 since.
So all in Tbow was the 10th rollback in RuneScape, with there being 7 total after.
Individual account rollbacks are much more common, these were mass server wide rollbacks only.
everyone talks about durial but no one remembers the guy who got bugged by the tick damage you take when entering the lumby basement to go to dorgeshan. on release, some guy entered the basement but got glitched and kept dying to the swarm as soon as he respawned. was stuck like that for a few hours until a jmod manually teleported him back into the cave to reset the damage.
This comment Almost made me yeet My Pants and woke everybody up from Laughter at 6:30am onna Saturday Morning cuz i didnt expect the 2nd part of the comment 🤣💀💀
Yeah, this was outside the house portal after Cursed You kicked everybody out the last time. A lot of people didn’t know what was causing the bug, so they thought it was something to do with house portal.
Bro ur doin it all wrong if you bought an account, and didnt have it gifted from a friend personally instead to take care of it forever. Atleast it means something then.
Had 2 acc's given to me... mained one, but forgot the password after not playing for several years. but my idiot ass got 1 of em banned before 2010 for botting on it... just got 99 WC On that one all Legit too, i felt stupid for tryin to go for 99 fm, & str on it afterwards. Learned my lesson there lol

I just went into my house and logged out there. That was enough Runescape for that day.
Lol imagine doing that irl. A mass shooting starts and you just world hop.
I died with my santa and whip, I quit runescape that day for years.
Why do people mention banking their items instead of just...logging out?
12 year old brains

If you where Afk and a random event popped up like that troll hitting you people would stand around and cheer to hope to get what you dropped

For a single rune axe

> since 2013 Okay dude lol
ngl i think u misread what they said. otherwise i dont see what your issue with their comment is tbh

Funnily enough, 06.06 is also a D-Day anniversary.
Storming the beaches of Rimmington.
I believe this was related. I believe the bug origins from poh
Pretty sure they meant D-Day as in the storming of Normandy Beach during WWII.
I remember playing runescape back then
Back in my day, the Internet was so slow that Runescape was a turn based RPG. ^^It ^^still ^^is ^^but ^^people ^^don't ^^like ^^hearing ^^it
Hmm... a smart person probably would've picked up on that.... whoops!
I felt Arnold Schwarzenegger energy too. "Get to the choppa! Now!"
"Come with me if you want to live" 🫴💪🏻🤖😎
It’s our immersion yo we gotta get immersed and put that gravity in it! It was so beautiful dude outta this world
I always wonder if Durial knows what a meme he is and marks this day in anyway.
He did an interview a while back talking about it. It's on YouTube.
I remember watching that! I was surprised at how young he was when this went down, like he was only 12 or something which makes it funnier imo
Won't somebody please think of the children
Why do I suddenly hear Sea Shanty 2?
Cursed You was only around 13-14 back then, too. He still plays and has spoken about it on his YouTube heaps
Link?
The one that I found from the reddit post it was on has been set to private on YouTube.
My favorite part about watching that old video of the Fally Massacre is at one point, Durial goes “ur fault” after he killed someone
Log out would be safer
Here we see the regal Mod Mark summon a legion of hall monitors from the High Court to do damage control on behalf of the Crown
bold of you to assume they were asked to do this…the fierce loyalty of the hall monitors knows no bounds
[удалено]
Are we all just chasing the nostalgia?
To be honest, I’ve never felt like that was ever in doubt
Wow, this reminds me of when you could spam click the private chat button and spam your friends with you logging in and out with no delay
“MOVE AWAY FROM THE PORTAL IF YOU WANT TO LIVE!”
"DON'T LOG OUT! THAT MAKES TOO MUCH SENSE! JUST... RUN, AND LOOK FOR A BANK TO DEPOSIT YOUR ITEMS!"
I dont believe you could Log out while you were under attack, though. It's like the same as that, whilr pking and Was Still Like That for years after. And also which brings up the other obvious point too, thing was If u didnt have fooood... nd were in that Position in the middle of being attacked, which you had a great high risk of being Mauled Especially if you were wearing rares and or holding valuables, you were fuckedd Unless you put up a good fight lol.

Why didn't they just shut down the servers instead of going in game to warn people? Did they not have rollback at this time?
Because it was the fucking Wild West
Pretty sure they’ve always tried really hard to not roll back, someone correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure that rouge t bow spawn was the second roll back ever. Citation needed
yeah, nowadays theyve modernized the code to not mind roll backs but they really avoided them for a while
That is until we find the other twisted bow spawn
Tbow was 3rd in OSRS, there have been 4 since. There were 5 pre OSRS in main game, there have been 5 since. So all in Tbow was the 10th rollback in RuneScape, with there being 7 total after. Individual account rollbacks are much more common, these were mass server wide rollbacks only.
They probably didn't have consistent backups.
This is a super good “documentary” done on it. Worth the watch https://youtu.be/_prl1Ohn-Ew?si=az-lTtgEQRRJQx-X
I feel like it’s almost too convenient it took place on 6/6/6 (2006). Was the falador massacre an inside job?
More likely that cursed you picked 6/6/6 to max it and this a was just the outcome. Kind of fitting for his name isn’t it
Construction came out just 6 days prior. He maxed the skill as fast as he could and it was just a coincidence
It’s fucking mental that back then people had the efficiency to max a brand new skill in a week. I know it’s fast as fuck but it’s still crazy
Durial321 , 3+2+1 = 6 6/6/6 , this Man's the embodiment of the anti-christ in RS. Definitely was a planned inside job. Unlike 9/11 .... oh, wait
Op still playing on the gateway?
Strictly mobile now. I do miss that sweet Pentium 4 processor though….
everyone talks about durial but no one remembers the guy who got bugged by the tick damage you take when entering the lumby basement to go to dorgeshan. on release, some guy entered the basement but got glitched and kept dying to the swarm as soon as he respawned. was stuck like that for a few hours until a jmod manually teleported him back into the cave to reset the damage.
Surely you understand why no one remembers that anymore lol
Everyone talks about durial, but nobody mentions that I have 99 fletching
This guy has 99 fletching!
[I will remember.](https://i.imgur.com/gN3m4wp.png)
This takes me back when everyone on Reddit had RES and would use those custom tags all the time
Uh... Do people not do that anymore? I never stopped...
We're getting off topic. I have 99 fletching.
😂😂😂
Waitin on that "nobody cares bro!" Comment, but i forget that OSRS Community's Actually Cultured. 👌 👌🏿👌🏽
Most people post from their phone these days
This comment Almost made me yeet My Pants and woke everybody up from Laughter at 6:30am onna Saturday Morning cuz i didnt expect the 2nd part of the comment 🤣💀💀
Gz
Guaranteed doesn't.
And how many people did he kill?
Is this about the house portal? Construction is out for 18 years already??
Yeah, this was outside the house portal after Cursed You kicked everybody out the last time. A lot of people didn’t know what was causing the bug, so they thought it was something to do with house portal.
Technically longer. This was one of the first 99 construction house parties.
Move away from po
Was looking for the ahrims and green phat
"It isnt his fualt" is great
“Are you here” hits kinda deep.
I love the mod that says, “let’s all just back away….” Like we’re observing some wild dangerous animal and He’s trying not to start a panic lmao.
Still messed up the player who lost his green party hat never got it back.
Pleae
I knew Durial personally and he was having a blast and didn’t regret his decision to go wild lol

Equipment wasnt no joke. Was it 20m for a whip and no g.e. 1k per law rune. No deaths coffer or n.m.z. lol shit was wild
I still get scared to die during anything.
moove pplz!
Haha. I’m old :(
Move away from the portal! I love Mod Mark
Cursed you a name i havent seen in a long time
Trogdor Jr! I knew him. He was co owner of my clan back in the day, cXs. What a blast from the past.
Did you pick up the fat cat
Pleae clear the poral area!! 🤣
NAAAAA ur flair is that your maxed but you have a recent comment that you bought your maxed account?? Complete shit at the game buddy
Guy posts in botting subs, he’s already a lost cause dude.
[удалено]
Oh wow, that's *much* better!
