Should today's glitch be added? Those who logged in know what I'm talking about. The log out one. Never mind. 05:45, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

GreeGree + Easter Ring = glitch
Does anyone else remember the greegree & easter ring glitch? I think it should be added.



You would use the Easter Ring then right-click the GreeGree, once you were a egg weild the GreeGree and you would turn into a weird stretched mutant thing. You could still use the agility course like you were a monkey. via Sedyana & forestdragoness 192.139.30.103 05:29, 14 March 2008 (UTC) Lady_Noremon Lady Noremon 05:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)lady_noremon

Dragon Armour with Water-Waist Glitch
Can someone please test the water waist glitch while wearing dragon/ THanks, Kyler351

Karajma Fishing Dock to Wizards' Tower
Twice I have been fishing on the Karamja fishing dock and was suddenly transported to the square directly east of Wizard Mizgog in the Wizards' Tower. Has anyone else had this or a similar problem? --63.215.28.97 23:16, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * That's where I was after failing the Freaky Forester random. Your character might have ignored a random or something.

Fairy Ring glitch
Today I used the fairy ring to head back to the bank from the desert, as I was heading to the ring located right by the Kalphite dungeon, I accidently clicked on a jackal and attacked it. I then proceeded to transport through the fairy ring and while doing so, I noticed the jackal following me. He followed me all the way into Zanaris. I took a screenshot and plan on uploading to photobucket, as I don't think any admins will allow it to be on this server. As I DK 20:55, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Why not? As long as you use it in the article space... JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot  21:34, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I had noticed that a few of the other "glitch images" were removed from the glitch page. I figured that they were not acceptable due to the rules placed on personal images and whatnot. I'm sure i'm probably wrong but I happen to be one of those people that mark images for speedy deletion and I didn't want to be a culprit either... know what I mean? :) As I DK 21:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The personal use rule is about ... personal use. If it's legitmately in the mainspace, it's not eligible for deletion under personal use rationale. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot  21:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
 * We've seen these images before. I even have one on a subpage of mine, and Roman Jerk uploaded a jackal image in Zanaris also.... Christine Talk 01:46, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Name Glitch
I remember playing a long while back (before RS2) when someone figured out that by using a modified client, they could add spaces in front of their name. One such hacker decided to name himself " Andrew". No one could talk to him since the client would automatically remove the space in front if you tried. Jadex did quickly fix the bug, they prevented further logins, but couldn't kick the player since the moderator's client also lacked the ability to ban players with the illegal name. They eventually had to restart the server to get the player kicked.

Ground Fishing Glitch
When fishing in catherby, the spot closest to bank if you click on the grapple tree near by you will start fishing in the ground. It still works and will end in a bit if u dont go back to water. If you could put that in thanks!

the box glitch
shouldnt the box glitch be mentioned? the one the box noob does?

It's from a member's Quest that you need to take a goblin (Zanik) in the crate (box) and take her in a place. I heard you could die or either let your membership end.

a souls bane glitch
I put up a glitch on where a player managed to sneak anger weapons outside of a souls bane and it got removed. why?

I saw that it got removed because it could've been fake. How can i put it up in a way that doesnt look fake? (it isnt fake)


 * Readded. I'm an idiot. >.<

thanks

it realy isn't fake, you can check on youtube, so can anyone tell me how plz

Overkill
This glitch is REAL
 * It happens because the hit exists but is not registered yet, and disregards any maximums in hp

Ninja Walk
I've added information about the Ninja Walk glitch, though it may need to be streamlined a bit. -- JalYt-Xil-BicycleCat user 01:53, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Somethings of note
The small head glitch also happened with the Frog Mask, I know, because I did it (name is Planetcatter), andf what about the house in Lummy that ppl couldnt escape from for a while? I was also in that....

Recent Graphics Update
Did anyone realize a few glitches when the new graphics came out? I saw that the GE would not tell you if the transaction was complete until you clicked on it. I also saw that all full helms, for that day, had red plumes like a Zamorak full helmet, which made me, and my friend with full saradomin, confused. 17:02, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

There are alot of new glitches with the new HD version, but it's still in Beta. I found alot of glitches, like if you wear a Lederhosen hat your chathead will be very small, only your beard is big. [][] (]:iSpacee :[) [][] 14:31, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

I just recently went bald after doing The Fremennik Trials, I'm not sure if it is relating to HD version. I miss my hair though :( 71.32.91.99 04:44, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The baldness seems to be related to the silly jester hat, still not fixed by Jagex. Prehaps it should be added to the article?71.35.176.189 00:59, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I've turned bald from a Jester hat, beret and camo hat. These baldness issues certainly have not been fixed yet, so they shouldn't be added. -- 02:38, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 * also Ive gone bald from a black wizards hat after doing shadow of the storm --

I have seen balding from gnome goggles and the robin hood hat. Bowler225 03:13, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Ardougne Bridge
whats up with the bridge between East and West Ardougne, its..like..transparant.. i can still walk over it but cant see it 21:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Same thing happens with the Castle Wars bridge sometimes.
 * Why are you mentioning it here? -- 19:54, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I believe this has to do with your graphics settings. I forget whether it was "ground textures" or "ground decorations", but I had both of mine set to "off" and had the same issue. Once I turned them on, the bridges reappeared. --nekobawt 22:54, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Glitches that have not been fixed by Jagex
When did we decide that we would not allow those in the article? What is the point of that? In an edit summary I saw someone say that "We don't want to encourage people to play with bugs." Who cares, if it's something as minor as the moonwalking glitch, or a glitch with an emote? I don't remember having any "dangerous" glitches like the World 111 Glitch on this page. 10:58, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * First of all, it's so it doesn't make us look like we're encouraging bug abuse, especially since we follow the Runescape rules here. If we only mention them once they're fixed, people won't get so hyped up about it, and won't try looking for or abusing them. Not only that, it's also because people kept adding glitches here as if they were reporting them to us, instead of Jagex, who people should really report glitches to. We really don't want people to think "A glitch! A glitch! I should tell everyone at the RuneScape Wiki about it!". Instead, we want them to think "A glitch. I should tell Jagex about it, so it will be fixed." You can even look at some of the talk page messages above, where some of them look like they're reporting glitches to us. Not only that, this can also help prevent people cluttering the page with non-notable glitches as well as ones that we don't need to hear about (just look at this section, for example). Sorry if this doesn't sound very clear to you; I'm not good at these kind of things, and this was probably the best way I could put it. -- 17:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well said Drummer. Also, with the introduction of RSHD, many, many graphical errors have been creater, that are so minor or pointless, that there is no real need to have them. Personally, I think the page should either be solely about performance glitches or split into Glitch/Performance and Glitch/Graphical. Graphical glitches will always happen, but rarely ever hinder a player's performance in the game. Glitches that hinder performance, in my opinion, derserve to be included and discussed.  18:03, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I was thinking that only performance glitches and abusable glitches should be mentioned (once they're fixed of course, so we don't get anyone in trouble). -- 18:13, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not abusing the glitch if it's something as minor as moonwalking! I see people using emote glitches all the time? Are they breaking the rules? 19:32, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * No, because they're got gaining anything from it. Telling minor glitches between friends is OK, but posting about them publicly on the wiki isn't. -- 15:49, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Why? 04:05, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Can we put glitches on the glitch page that cannot be abused? (ex.- a costume glitch, where someone's head is turned backwards because of something they're wearing) We wouldn't get in trouble if the glitch was non-abusive. 04:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
 * If you go to "Report a Bug" to Jagex (under known glitches), and other places (i.e. Official Forums) they call some glitches ".. more like features" because there is no way they would put enough code to cover every instance of something so minor as floating across the Ditch... I believe if Jagex can call these "Features" than we can post about them.  Also, we cover ALL bugs.  Jagex fixes big bugs within hours if they feel it necessary..  The moonwalk glitch has been there since the beginning of RS2.  Obviously they don't care and it's "cool".    13:17, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, we only cover notable bugs (such as ones that got J-mods involved, abusable bugs (once they're fixed), and ones that hinder the gameplay of alot of people), otherwise this page would just be full of clutter. -- 19:59, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * So the Dorgeshuun crossbow special attack glitch hinders gameplay? And the Crazy Head glitch as well?  Wait, since when were you the one to make the rules on this wiki?

I want to re-open this as it's highly controversial and I think a complete consensus needs to be made. I feel, personally, that this main page should be only performance hindering glitches, or simply glitches that are not graphical. Also, I feel that Glitch/Graphical should be created to post graphical glitches. They are interesting to read about, and since RSHD is still relatively new, there are many of these types. I agree that posting glitches that have not been fixed by Jagex should not be allowed.... for performance glitches. I don't think anybody could possibly be banned for a graphical glitch, as that does not give anybody an unfair advantage, and it's rarely ever the user's fault. 22:00, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree. I mean, we can list things like moonwalking and invisible bridges, but not something like a recreation of the Edgeville Massacre. 16:17, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Crazy head glitch has not been fixed...
Just yesterday I was fishing at Karamja and I saw a female player who was ailed by that glitch. I don't think it has been fixed yet? Rowanq25 17:51, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Back of a torch glitch
found this in the tomb in the "in aid of the myrque" quest chain... and this is where it is Corhen 06:52, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Why are you telling us? -- 01:38, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Grand Exchange "Swim Glitch"
I was recently at the Grand Exchange when I noticed a player "swimming" for about 2-3 seconds then returning to normal, above-ground stance. If anyone can give me any information on this or possibly add it to the glitches page once it's been fixed, I'd appreciate it. This is a portion of the screenshot I got of him swimming.

I also have the full screenshot if anyone would like to see it. Thanks. Scroungelo 15:46, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

I saw this glitch performed yesterday on world 45, the person using the glitch proceeded to swim throughout Varrock, then teleport to Lumbridge.--71.176.170.192 12:25, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

I believe this glitch was fixed and related to the fishing trawler minigame. How exactly it is achieved, I do not knowMjc3 02:31, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Guys,you need to think ... quit being stupid,you can't fix a glitch,because theres always going to be new ways...

Try to go back to land on the trawler, then before it crashes open the report abuse or skill menu thing. When it crashes you end up swimming on land (used to). Cheese13562

INVISIBILITY
so, can anyone tell me why hapi removed 4 perfectly good images showing the invisibility glitch and replaces it with his own totally overkill animation? NO NEED! the pictures where just fine for this case, there is no call for an animation, and defiantly no reason to delete the gallery that i would say better showed how the glitch can occur. edit: should it be reverted (see image and media policy)? -- 15:04, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Invisibility is not a glitch! All you do is either type a period and bunch of spaces and then type what you want to say or type what you want to say followed by a bunch of spaces and a period. Your words appear to hover above an "invisible" person either to the right or left of you. I fooled some noobs with this one, but I wouldn't call it a glitch. --Sword Dope 19:21, 8 May 2009

grand exchange
im not sure if this is a glitch because its apart of the weebsite maintenance but ill post some pics of it

Tdrone 23:52, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Apparently if you click on some of the items, the lines on the graph would not show.I don't know how to do screen shot so I really can't upload pics. >.< Powers38 00:26, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Actually...I read the headlines from the main page of runescape.It says,"We are currently performing maintenance on some of our web systems.

Godsword glitch via lending
I forget the exact page, but I believe there is conflicting information on a different page. Simply put, this information states that this could not actually happen. I'll try to hunt this page down, to bring a quote or two, but no gaurantees. Also, I have no idea as to the validity of either comment, so, once I find the page, I'll have to leave it up to you guys.Mjc3 02:25, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Stealing Creation Glitch
Hey, I ran into that once, but i managed to get out of it somehow. I clicked to talk with the dwarf in the starting room and teleported to him.

Self muting glitch
I've experienced a glitch that u can self mute yourself with, this was done during the early days of quick chat and has since been fixed, should this be added? this glitch worked by having quick chat open and then talking to the were wolf agility boss, then clicking continue, u had to log out to fix this.   floppyc5    21:56, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Small glitch
I've discovered(or I think I have) a small glitch: When holding a weapon(such as D-longsword) and changing for the Circus Agility event, once you're in costume your arm is still in the position for holding the longsword, but there's no weapon in your hand. Also, even if you don't have a weapon, all facial hair dissapears. Figured I should like, mention it or something in case someone wanted to add it.

World 125 Glitch
I think this is a glitch, and its on World 125, a F2P world. If you go to World 125 on World Select, it says its a 'Stealing Creation' world, when Stealing Creation can only be played in Members worlds.SharpstarofFireClan 19:27, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Also, on Stealing Creation, if you use the Give Thanks emote while the game is about to start, and the game starts, you will be left in the lobby.

Cleanup
I have cleaned up the article and removed both the present tense and the 2nd person words (you). The sentence structure, spelling, and grammar has also been corrected, as well as a few red link corrections and image alignment corrections. I went ahead and removed the cleanup template since it's been cleaned up.  Soldier 1033 talk 17:20, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Reported Bugs
In Customer Support and the Code of Conduct, Jagex states that you can find a list of reported bugs (seeing if they are waiting to be fixed, or fixed), but I could never find it. Could someone get a link to put on the article? 12:26, 10 December 2008 (UTC)


 * you have to go to http://bugtracker-v4.runescape.com/index.html > choose category > continue > continue and voila.
 * You dont have a direct link because the codebehind generates the list (so giving a direct link would give no result)

ù== box glitch ==

guys, stop adding box glitch its not a actual glitch... you are allowed to pick up the box in the first place making it NOT a glitch...

Please sign your edits on talk pages with four tildes (~). Also, I've responded to your message on your talk page, which explains why it is a glitch. You can pick it up, but you cannot walk past the farm with it. These players have been able to walk all around RuneScape with it. It is a glitch. Kudos 2 U Talk! Edit count! Contribs! 02:25, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Guys,ill expain. The 'Box' is picked up during the quest "Death to the Dorgeshuun". Theres a limited zone where you may carry the box,which is only the lumbridge watermill. Me and friends (Im sure you know who im thinking about)tried smuggling the box by dieing,going outside and logging out... And everyone says you need to die with pots,thats not how it works(and it NEVER worked like that,you would just end up in a zombie position). Ok,so to keep the box you needed to do a fake log,which is a glitch where the server thinks your logged out.After,you needed to pickup the box and you could simply leave the area. If youd logout,you would lose the box :-( Oh and when you log back in your a zombie XD. hope you guys know more about it.Ohh,and its not 100% fixed.

Tree glitch
There is a tree of type tree to the west of falador east bank in a group of three. it is the one on the far left side when facing north, though this tree has the cut down option it will not be chopped down. when clicked the player moves to it and stops. 90.240.87.241 21:19, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Breaking up page
Does anyone else think this page should be split up? Right now its huge, and at the rate jagex is going its just going to keep getting bigger. I thing Glitch should give a basic description of what a glitch is, and then list some famous glitches. It could then direct players to separate pages on Player/npc glitches, environment glitches, item glitches, and miscellaneous glitches. Thoughts? -- 00:13, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Fine with me. WWTDD? 00:22, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Great idea! The article is quite messy at the moment, so it will be great to find the one specific glitch you remembered from back in the day. Kayteen7 00:23, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Done! -- 04:06, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Alt Code Glitch
Earlier this morning, there was a glitch ingame that caused anyone who saw the alt code ALT+0181 to crash. People were using this to kill other peoples gameplay by typing it, they would avoid being crashed themselves by having their public chats set to Off. It's been fixed, but while active MANY players were crashed, and while they weren't in control their acc died at GWD or PvP or wherever. Now, if you try write that alt code in game, it will just show up as a blank space. Worth mentioning on the page? Trio0 04:32, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

censor is a glitch??
The section talking about how censor asterisks out some usernames is a glitch?? Simply how is it a glitch and wouldn't it be much better placed under a page on censor?? Evil Yanks talk 10:01, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It wasn't intended for the censor to block usernames as that makes it difficult for users to communicate with each other. JaGEx admits this is a problem and allows you to submit your name to them to have it put in as an exception to the censor as in many cases the portion of the name is something that makes no sense to have blocked, for example my username shows up as "Bartuc*io3" or "Bartu*cio3" (forgot which) instead of showing up as "Bartuccio3" as it should. I personally find it not worth the space it would take up in the censor script to have my name unblocked since only one letter is missing and it's still easy to see who is being referred to, but in more extreme cases you might have something like: (for sake of argument, this is most likely not real) Vegetarian27 show up as "***et*rian*7." This would actually be worth spending the storage space for. In any case it can still be considered a glitch that the game censors anybody's username.
 * While I'm on this topic, does anybody here know if there would be a way for them to automatically reference the database of login information to automatically un-censor usernames? I know they've done this to block your own password from being said, so doesn't this sound like a viable solution? -- 19:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

I just noticed that "Bugs" redirects here.

However, "Bugs" is also the name of an Ogre, and there is currently no way to get to that page.

Easter PvP Glitch
Check it out. Does anyone know what it was? It's fixed now, apparently, so it should be added. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 10:49, 13 April 2009 (UTC) i added it as the pvp drop potential glitch. -- 00:06, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Banker Killing
I remember reading on a fansite about how some users used an infamous cheating tool to actually be able to attack bankers. The information available was limited and vague, so I was wondering if anybody here that had first- or second-hand experience could post some elaborate information or if it's already posted in an article not wholly about the glitch, direct me toward it. Some things that I think could be interesting are what the combat level and HP of a banker were, as well as what the typical reaction was of somebody trying to use a bank and finding that all bankers were dead or in-combat. RSC already has enough difficulty using banks due to the bankers only being able to talk to one person at a time and no right-click option for quick-banking, so it could be very humorous if anybody has screen-captures of some player's verbal responses to this. -- 19:49, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

not getting attacked glitch
shortly after the rest feature was added some monsters became unagressive and wouldn't attack you after u attacked them this glitch was enjoyed for the short time it lasted i know it happened on some worlds and not all because they updated some worlds again that day (june 9th 2009) i looked at world select at only some worlds were down i remembered worlds 40, 1,2,3, were offline after that quick fix by jagex the only monster i know personnally that did this was the cockroach soldier anyone know anything else about this plz post Manofflames6 00:03, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
