After accidentally killing players and deleting billions in gear, Old School RuneScape devs warn the MMO's community and take worlds offline to fix things
Jagex has taken Old School RuneScape worlds offline to address a critical bug in the game's death mechanics that caused players to lose valuable gear. The issue, which bypassed normal item retrieval processes, led to immediate item deletion for some players. The developer has since restored items and is exploring long-term changes to the punishing death system.
