New In-Game Player Moderators

We are very pleased to announce today the launch of In-Game Player Moderators!
These moderators are trusted RuneScape players who have been hand-picked by Jagex Staff to help keep the game a fun and safe environment for everyone else. As well as being normal players, they also have the privilege of sending in priority abuse reports, and can also mute players who are breaking our chat rules.

Special Attacks

Special Attacks
Today we have introduced some special attacks to a variety of members only weapons.
The dragon weapons, excalibur, rune throwing axes and magic bows now all have different special attacks. There are many types of special attacks, from temporary boosts in stats, to strikes dealing extra damage. For full details see this page.

In the combat interfaces of these weapons you will now notice a new special attack bar. If you click on the bar, then your character will initiate a special attack and use up some of your special attack power.
Different special attacks use up different amounts of power. If you do not have enough power for a special attack, then you can't do it. Your special attack power will slowly restore over time.

Expect more types of special attacks on future weapons.

Mining and thieving from stalls

In Runescape Classic, if two people managed to get ore from a rock at exactly the same time, or steal something at the exact same time from a stall then they would both get it. This previously didn't happen in Runescape, making it much harder to gain resources in competitive situations. We have now changed it so both people will get the resources.

Treasure trail clues

Two more npc types now drop treasure trail clues; happy hunting!

Strange fruit

Strange fruit now heals more run energy than it did previously.


New Bug Reporting System

We have changed the way we are handling player reported bugs in order to more swiftly investigate and fix them.
The correct way to report RuneScape bugs now is to use the 'Bug reporting' section of the Customer Support menu (accessible via the Secure Menu). Here you can select the type of bug you are reporting and complete a form which will give our testers all the information they need to investigate the problem.

Within the Bug reporting section you will also be able to view the list of currently known bugs and their current status. You should check this list before sending in a bug report to make sure it's not an issue we are already aware of.

We have removed the bug forums on the RuneScape Forums and the bug categories within the Feedback section of Customer Support, as these are no longer needed.

Hopefully you won't need to use this section of the website very often! If you do come across a bug though, please give as much detail as possible. The more information you provide, the quicker we can track down and fix the problems.
