Glitch

A glitch (also known as a bug) is a fault in the program that causes it to function improperly. The severity of glitches can vary. One glitch caused a player's username to appear as "null" immediately after login; another hard-to-find, yet serious bug allowed players to kill other players outside of the Wilderness. After the temporary release of RuneScape Classic in 2009, the "null" name glitch was still in effect.

Abuse of glitches, such as the World 111 Glitch that allowed players to attack other players outside of the Wilderness, is a severe offence that is punishable by a permanent ban under Rule 4 of the Code of Conduct.

Jagex has recommended that players who find a bug or glitch in RuneScape should report it to Jagex immediately via the "Submit a Bug Report" interface on the RuneScape main page.

Abuse of a glitch which provides a player with an unfair advantage can result in anywhere from temporary muting to a permanent ban from RuneScape depending on the severity of the glitch, and how much a player abused it.

Falador Massacre
One infamous example of bug abuse was the Falador Massacre - also called the World 111 Glitch or the World 111 Massacre. On the day of 6 June 2006 the first player to reach 99 Construction hosted a celebration party at his house. He eventually expelled all of the guests because the number of guests was causing large amounts of lag. There were massive amounts of people at the party, and when he expelled all of them, some incorrectly assume that he overloaded the server, although this was not the case. It was, rather, an error in the coding of the construction skill. Because he had not turned off PvP (player vs player) mode, those in the dungeon and fight arena were able to attack and kill any player anywhere. This resulted in a PKing rampage that caused many deaths, the loss of items that Jagex could not replace, and the permanent banning of most participants. Although the player was not banned for the massacre, he was later banned for real-world trading.. The reason Jagex could not replace the items lost was because many, many people claimed to have lost items, yet they had not even been logged on at the time.

Mods tried to tell people to bank their items and teleport but they were barely seen among the massive amount of followers.

This bug remained on RuneScape for about an hour and was fixed immediately after it became known to Jagex.

Chat Tricked Glitch
This glitch allowed players to bypass the chat filter. When Alt Codes were introduced to the RuneScape chat system, specific Alt Codes allowed players to bypass the chat filter. When a certain Alt Code was typed in, it would register as a space to the chat filter but would not actually put a space in between the word itself. An example would be typing "Myspace" which normally would be blocked by putting My(Alt code)Space. So the chat filter registered it as My Space but appeared as MySpace. Using this technique, a player who spaced the letters out correctly could type anything without the filters blocking it. This glitch was abused quite often during the Pay to Pk riot, mainly to insult Jagex.

μ Glitch
Another infamous glitch would be the μ glitch. When a player pressed Alt+0181, the μ character was created (The Greek letter mu, used for the prefix "micro"). A player who typed in this character and actually said it would find that all nearby players including him/herself would be automatically logged out from RuneScape. Some players abused it horrifically in PVP worlds and Bounty Hunter to gain extremely unfair advantages, by putting their chat on "off" then saying the character μ. This would crash the other players, leaving the abuser to kill the other player with absolute ease. However, players could avoid the glitch by turning all chat filters to "Off". This glitch was fixed removing the µ character from the game, and in a hidden update the character was placed back.

Noclip Glitch
In mid 2008, a bug known as the Noclip Glitch was discovered by a numerous amount of players. This bug gave them certain properties of "noclipping" (the ability to walk through walls) and performed many unusual bugs such as getting a level 3 player into the Legends' Guild. After months of the same few players being spotted in inaccessible areas, Jagex finally patched it in around the 8th of November. Most, if not all, of the bug abusers who performed this bug are now banned.

Ring of wealth glitch
On 15 March 2011, the new ring of wealth update introduced new teleport abilities for the ring when it is charged. Within a half hour of the update players discovered that while in lootshare the effects of the ring of wealth stacked. This allowed players to obtain ultra rare items everytime. This flood of rare items including god sword hilts caused the price of godswords to crash. Players were able to get rares such as sigils, as a 100% drop from the Corporeal Beast. The day after the glitch, Mod Mark personally apologized for what happened.

Freezing Glitch
In the Fall of 2010, a new glitch was discovered. When fighting Icy bones and preforming the emote Freeze, the player will stand still while the ice comes up, melts, come back up and break. This is also known to work with the boss Luminescent Icefiend.

Stretchy Cape
There is a glitch where you can be harpooning and your clan cape's top part streches back like two sticks. The glitch will also occur when the character is resting, at a musician or otherwise. This has yet to be fixed.

Legends Cape
There is a glitch where your Legend's Cape will turn black whenever you are in the Rellekka region.

Sitting at Clan Camp Glitch
There is currently a glitch which allows players to maintain the sitting position in one spot in the Clan Camp if they equip a Vexillum and select the "Teleport" option, while quickly opening House Options after sitting on a chair. This has yet to be fixed.

Gender Glitch
There is currently a glitch which causes female players to have male heads and to wear armour in the male version.

Statue Glitch
A glitch where a players commerative statue turns into a blue messed up figure. It is when a player's statue is meant as if the player was a "Pie Pan." It appears to strips of blue, and see through. This glitch has been patched.

Cyclopean Helmet Glitch
This glitch can be performed when a player wields a Cyclopean Helm and rests, or instead of resting, he performs an emote that can make his head move for example: Puppet Master, Dance, Yes, and No. Resting is more popular than performing an emote, however. What happens in this glitch is a little change in graphics. This glitch has been fixed.

Running button fault Glitch
When a player is out of energy after running, and presses the button to run when they have zero energy, the button will light up as if the player is running. However, the player is not running at all. This is not fixed. Players can double-click the running button to restore functionality of running.

Penguin Hide and Seek Glitch
The Penguin Hide and Seek Glitch was a glitch that occurred on 28 January 2009, on World 60, involving the Distractions and Diversions Penguin Hide and Seek. Players discovered the glitch when they found out they could spy on the same penguin over and over again. As a result, players could gain 50 points in a short amount of time, visit Larry, trade them in for experience, and then return to the penguin to earn more points. More than a hundred accounts were permanently banned and several more accounts were temporarily banned as a result of this bug.

Player (level: 1) Glitch
In the house containing the Customs Sergeant in Rimmington, one could right click the floor by the sergeant to see an invisible level 1 'Player', which gives you an examine option saying "Invisible player". This glitch was fixed during a patch in May 2009. This also seems to occur when you summon the magic elemental game in a Player owned house.

Monster Death Glitch
This glitch often involved the deaths of monsters that were killed while fighting players, but could also happen in areas with high mortality rates, such as Castle Wars. The glitch made the monster, or player, appear in the 'prone' (dead) position (after death for monsters, randomly for ordinary players). The 'dead' monster could still move, attack, etc. from the prone position while players could train skills, etc. It has also happened a few times at Bounty Hunter. This glitch was not sighted very often as it was considered highly uncommon. This Glitch also has happened in the Fist of Guthix activity, the Duel Arena, Earth warriors, the Rock Crabs in Rellekka, Dust Devils in the Smoke Dungeon, and Guards at the East Ardougne Market.

A variant of this glitch has been found in late November 2010, after the release of Korasi's Sword. Rarely, when a normal hit is blown followed by the special attack, if the targeted NPC is killed, it will drop its normal items upon death, but continue to attack the player while being invincible. It is then attackable once it has had the chance to regain a few life points. This can continue until the special attack is used again, as this finally kills the NPC. This was first spotted by a player killing a Highwayman north of Seers Village on the 30th November 2010.

Player-NPC Glitch
The Player-Npc glitch was first noticed in April 2010. This very rare glitch makes a player name in the right-click menu turn yellow as if it were a NPC name. It is not known why this occurs or how it can be reproduced. This glitch has been fixed by Jagex.

"Floating In Ground" Glitch
The "Floating In Ground" Glitch makes a player appear if they are floating in the ground, as shown in the image to the right. In addition, the player will occasionally twitch his/her head to the left. Though very rarely seen today, this glitch is not fixed.

Dungeoneering 'Post-Mortem' Damage Glitch
If a monster or boss in Daemonheim kills a player, it may continue attacking them during that player's death animation. When the player respawns, the hit-splats for the attacks will appear, and unfairly cause damage even though the player had only just respawned. If the attacks came from a high-levelled monster or the boss, it is even possible for the player to be killed again right after respawning. Although an extremely rare occurrence, this glitch has not been fixed yet. '

MMMM-glitch
An infamous, but forgotten glitch which existed back in RuneScape Classic times. Pkers found out that spamming "mmm" would disconnect each other, giving a friend the opportunity to pick up stuff.

Partyhat duplication glitch


The partyhat duplication glitch is one of the most infamous glitches in RuneScape. A player had been experimenting with RuneScape by using a third-party program called AutoRune in an attempt to simply trade the scythe. Although the player never managed to trade the scythe, he did discover how to create any non-stackable item. Therefore, the glitch did not duplicate existing items, but instead created new ones. The use of any such third party software to gain any advantage was, of course, against the rules of RuneScape. The glitch was performed on a massive scale over the period of a few days drastically affecting the RuneScape economy, specifically the rares market where the price of pink/purple partyhats dropping from being the most expensive partyhat to the cheapest. Jagex didn't know how the items were being created and therefore offered a reward of lifetime membership to the first player who could tell them how the glitch worked. A few players came forward and with the knowledge these players provided, Jagex fixed the glitch and subsequently banned them.

It should be noted Jagex never actually rewarded the lifetime membership, but gave the original discloser a lifetime ban from RuneScape.

Greegree and stretching
During the first day of the 2006 Easter holiday event if a player went to Ape Atoll and would equip the greegree and then right-click the Easter ring, a player's character would become stretched-out. You could still use the agility course like you were a monkey.



The glitch was soon fixed and attempting to use the ring after would result in an "The ring doesn't seem to fit properly on your monkey finger." message.

This glitch returned on 13 May 2010. To reproduce this bug, player had to access Ape Toll using a Fairy ring, and equip a Monkey greegree before the flower animation finished. Players were able to swap between armour without ending the glitch.

Blood rune duplication glitch
This glitch allowed players to take blood runes out of the activity Barbarian Assault and is commonly referred to as "The Blood Rune Dupe" even though it did not involve duplicating blood runes. The smuggled blood runes could then be sold to other players through trade or through the Grand Exchange. There has been multiple occurrences of players performing this glitch using different strategies and so Jagex finally fixed this bug completely by replacing the blood runes with elemental and catalytic runes in Barbarian Assault during June 2009. Most of the players that abused this glitch were permanently banned.

Bolt duplication glitch
The Bolt duplication glitch was leaked to the wider public on 22 February 2010. This glitch was patched without a system update on the 23rd of February. It enabled players to gain tens of millions of gp per hour by significantly multiplying the amount of dragon bolts during enchanting.

The player used a chisel with a cut gem. When the message pops up to cut into gem tips the player opened up their mage book and then clicked make-all on the gem. As soon as the player started making bolt tips they clicked enchant bolts on the dragon bolts. The first 10 bolts get enchanted, and then every 1 bolt after that turned into 12 enchanted bolts.

The glitch could be used to multiply any bolts, but due to the scarcity and value of dragonstone, combined with their frequent use in PvP, dragon bolts were the most widespread kind of bolts that were used while exploiting the glitch.

Jagex made an official statement about this bug on 2 March 2010, in which they said that they banned several high-levelled players, including one with a Total level of 2376 (The highest Level you could achieve before the release of Dungeoneering) and one with over 1000 days of total playtime. Several fan-site forums reported an increase in ban-risk for all types of offences in the days following the glitch; therefore, it seems Jagex temporarily increased its watchfulness in order to seek out those players who did participate in the glitch.

Stock glitch
The Stock Glitch, which occurred the 29 of May, 2010, was a bug that caused all stocks in world 169 to be immediately refilled after buying. After players began to notice it, players stood at shops and repeatedly bought the items that kept on refilling, making large amounts of profit. Jagex fixed it after a few hours.

Dungeoneering armour glitch


Some players were able to smuggle dungeoneering armour outside of the dungeoneering skill and wear the armour. Many other items have also been smuggled from the Dungeoneering skill, although only a few of the items are usable outside of Daemonheim.

Jagex also made it so that any smuggled armor and weapons would disintegrate if the player attempts to wield them outside of Daemonheim, and they later claimed to have removed all smuggle items, although some claim that smuggled items exist.

P.O.H. Bench Glitch
The POH bench Glitch was a very popular glitch among many concerning Construction. In this bug, the player was able to move while standing in a bench that is "cloned" by a player. However, walking, going down dungeons and trapdoors and the like of actions happens very slowly, and it would seem as though the player teleported to said area, or otherwise "slide" quickly to it.

Doing this glitch required the player to have food in their inventory, and sit on a Dining Room bench, then right-clicking the bench and select "remove", and immediately clicking the food several times to assure that the player has eaten it. The bench turns sideways, and having a servant and Bell-pull will be convenient if the player is not the house owner and the owner is in the house in a different room. The player rings the bell, summoning the servant and bringing the player to the room that the house owner is in. The player would then move in the bench.

Another part of the bench glitch was, while sitting in the glitched bench and wielding an item i.e. boxing gloves, and eating and equipping a new weapon really fast, the new weapon would be held the same way as the other weapon. The fix isn`t complete yet because if you equip, for example, a 2h sword, go sit on the bench and open up the equipment menu, you will still be able to equip a new weapon which will be held the same way as the 2h sword. This appears only in the menu though.

P.O.H. Owner Glitch
The POH owner glitch was quite popular, mainly used in World 31 at house parties. If a player walked onto a trap in the dungeon of another players' house, then used Teleport to House, the trap would force them back into the other players house while still being registered as teleporting to their own house. While someone was 'owning' another house, players could still enter that person's original house. The glitched owner could also pick up and plant Wintumber trees, which resulted in Wintumber Tree duplication if two or more players tried to pick one up at the same time. If the owner of the house turned challenge mode off, the glitched owner could turn it on and attack people in the dungeon while being unattackable.The glitcher could also delete the owner's butler but could not retrieve things from the bank.

Construction Mode Party Glitch
The construction mode party glitch was not widely used. It consisted of a player in construction mode (and often an empty house) going into a combat ring and committing suicide via nitroglycerin or poison. The player would then spawn outside the ring and other players could enter the house. Many players didn't use this glitch because they thought other players would delete furniture from their house, although all items are perfectly safe.

Turn-Back Glitch
The Turn-Back glitch (also referred to as the walk-block glitch by some) was and is a fairly common glitch, easily re-creatable under certain conditions. The Turn-Back glitch commonly occurred at several locations (such as near the Al-Kharid Bank and the Wilderness entrance on Daemonheim). The Turn-Back glitch was basically a glitched wall, which existed in a certain location. If a player walked into the wall, the wall would automatically turn their character around. If attempted again, the same result would occur. The only way to penetrate the "glitch wall" was to run at it. However, even this is known to fail. The glitch can become extremely aggravating for a weighted-down character, especially near the Al-Kharid bank, which is a common location for F2P Smithers. The glitch has been mostly fixed as of now, but still exists in some locations, such as the top floor of the building next to Bob's axes, and the Yew tree south east of Falador, near the Farming Patch.

Adding Self to Friends List Glitch
After RuneScape's 8 July 2009 update there was a glitch were you could add yourself to your own Friends List by putting a space after the last letter of your name, or before the first. For example Ex1:"Jim" Then if you put "Jim_" "Jim" would have added himself; Jagex fixed this the next day after many players performed it. Players who added themselves during that first day did not have themselves removed though after Jagex's update. The same thing could also been performed to add yourself to your own ignore list, this was also fixed at the same time. Due to a recent update, players logged into RuneScape only to find "Changes will take effect on your clan in 60 seconds" and their usernames removed from their own friends list. It is no longer possible to re-create this glitch.

When RuneScape added the Display Name Update on 1 October 2009 you could add yourself to your friends list again if you had changed your name, this time by selecting "Add Friend" and typing your old username in. When logging back into RuneScape, your name would have been removed. This instance of the glitch has since been fixed.

In December 2009 this glitch was possible to do in RuneScape Classic; this has since been fixed.

Prayer Glitches
There have been a few Prayer glitches. When players would do an overhead prayer, and then the Around the World in Eggty Days emote, they would leave their prayer behind. This was fixed with the 2009-11-09 update.

Game engine update glitch
On 9 June 2009, numerous glitches were found in the game after Jagex has changed the game's engine. During that time players could attack all monsters and these would not return with any sort of damage, including the greatest of bosses like Corporeal beast, or even the simple ones like Goblins. This also included non-responsive NPC's such as bankers and random events, which left players stranded inside random events such as the Sandwich lady and Giles/Niles/Miles. The glitches were fixed a few hours after it has been confirmed by Jagex.

Clan Chat Player Duplication Glitch
This rare, minor glitch happens when you log off in a certain world while in a clan chat and the next day you enter from a different world. You will see yourself in the world you were in yesterday and the world you are in currently. If anyone attempts to kick the glitched player, someone else in the clan chat will be kicked instead. This has been fixed.

Right click box glitch
After the RuneTek5 update, if a player right-clicked anywhere on the page, and kept walking until a new section of the map loaded, (Loading... Please wait) instead of the Right click box disappearing, all the options were removed but the right click box remained, with the exception of "Cancel". This has now been fixed.

Empty box glitch
In October 2009, if a player accessed details on certain quests, such as Dragon Slayer, from the quest list, when they closed the quest details all the quests would disappear. This glitch was fixed but seen again while Dungeoneering ...

Player Moderator Forums Glitch
In 2009, a major glitch was found by a couple players that allowed them to bypass site security and gain unauthorised access to the player moderator forums on the main RuneScape site. The bug abusers, using these exploits, viewed and archived confidential moderator information discussed on the forums and used them to repeatedly harass various moderators. One of the abusers created a mirror of the information, but Jagex took down the mirror within a week.

It is unknown whether this glitch has been patched or not. The bug abusers who exploited this bug were already banned several times before its discovery for previous instances of bug abuse, including noclipping.

Connection Lost Error
If you right click on anything and then immediately lose connection or log out, you encounter an error in which the drop down right click box is open on the login screen and none of the other option on the login screen will be able to be used. There is no way to close the box. This can also be done by clicking logout, then very quickly right clicking anything with options, and the only way to get rid of it and be able to log in again is to refresh the page or only use keyboard to log in (press tab).

World 901
After the game update on 23 March 2010, a new world could be seen on the world list called 'World 901 - [RS] Demo World.' Whilst the world list claimed there were a tiny amount of players on this world, it was inaccessible by regular players. Attempting to login would prompt the message 'Malformed Login Packet Please Try Again.' Mod Ac confirmed on the forums that it was a glitch. It was later revealed that this was the Instant Demo world, when the instant demo was released.

Barbarian Assault
A Glitch found while playing Barbarian Assault on wave 10 right before someone lights a fire in front of the trapdoor where the boss comes out. After the boss comes out the fires will freeze then burn out after they are done.

Glitch found while playing a game of Barbarian Assault. The Team Recruitment window is opened showing 2 of the 5 players have quit, yet in the game, no one has quit. All players are accounted for. This window Stayed through the whole game and did not go away. Game play was playable. Later in the game it showed all players were not on the team, yet everyone was accounted for during the game.

Log Out Glitch
After an update on 9 June 2010, a player couldn't log out of the game nor to the lobby. When a player would choose the "Exit to lobby" or "Exit to Login" option, a message would appear in the right-hand corner saying "Connection lost. Attempting to Re-establish". After the message went away, it would appear as if you had never pressed the logout button. On the same day, a few servers also went down, mainly world 70. Clicking to log out again would normally fix this problem, but not always.

Moonwalk Glitch
This glitch allows you to follow someone while only standing in 1 spot. The followed player can run all around, but the one following will just stay in 1 spot, rotating and walking in place. To perform this glitch, follow any player then just add a blank note to the notes section.

There used to be a glitch where if someone was to run with a book in inventory, then click it, anyone who was following him at the time, will go to the place where the person clicked doing a moonwalk. The person who was following would continue to face the person they were following and go to the flag, while the person who clicked the book would not move. It still works but it will stop if the person you are following goes within five blocks of your location it will stop

Amplified Head Glitch
This glitch basically amplifies any movement your head does, but your face disappears, with only your fighter hat remaining. From doing emotes to the idle animations, your head movements get amplified. To perform this glitch, you need a fighter hat, a skillcape, and you need to be a girl. This was discovered on 1 September 2010 along with the NPC and PC eye updates.

A similar glitch occurs if a male player wears a soul wars cape, a facemask, and has the long hair style. This has been fixed.

No items in bank glitch
This glitch occurs when a player right-clicks the banker and before the bank appears the player would right-click the banker again (keeping it open this time) and when the bank option appears the player selects bank banker again.

Headless NPC glitch
When a player uses the Saradomin godsword special attack on the shadowy stranger, the head disappears.

World 143 Members Glitch
Sometime around 9:00 EST on 9/7/10 at least 2 nonmembers were capable of logging into the Members world 143, and did it twice. All the benefits of being a member were capable to be exploited, as both the 2 confirmed nonmembers were able to kill unicorns and get horns.

The Disappearing Text/ Map glitch
This glitch could happen randomly and makes everything text related disappear, the map disappears leaving only yellow, green, and white dots. The mini-map glitch part has definitely not yet been patched. To fix this if it should happen to you, open up the world map and close it.

Sawmill glitch
This seems to happen when you teleport out of the sawmill using a Magic tablet, this glitch has no purpose or use.

Note: If you wish to get rid of this, teleporting to your house or logging off will get rid of it.



Thessalia's Makeovers immobility glitch
On 25 August, 2010, a vast variety of clothing was introduced into the shop, which attracted a lot of players to change clothes. Most players trying to do so find them immobile and unable to teleport. Also, if an unstuck player were to follow one of the immobile players as he/she attempted to click on the map and run away, the unstuck player would run off right where the immobile player attempted to go, which doesn't seem to follow any people. The immobile players were able to escape from the bug by climbing the ladder, clicking randomly or logging out and back in.

Tree 'Snow' Glitch
During November–December 2010 there was a glitch in Standard Detail where the leaves on the trees had a square that was white or another object colour other than green. This caused a number of player to think that the trees had become snowy due to the time of year and recent weather. It was however just a glitch, and only occurred on lower graphical settings.

Grand Exchange Glitch
In the Grand Exchange if you pressed buy then sell very quickly you would be able to keep the search bar up even when you close out and leave the grand exchange. To make it go away you would have to press enter or type and enter. You could not actually search the G.E. from any place you want because when you press enter it would go away. This Glitch has been fixed.

No-Legs Glitch
On 1 March 2011, a glitch was found after the Elemental Workshop IV update that caused a bottom half to disappear. This glitch can also be achieved by fletching, crafting runes, falconry, casting certain spells, throwing rotten tomatoes at players in Duel Arena, removing things from your house and using certain Weapons. The players legs would re-appear once they have finished the task. The next day the glitch was fixed for some cases, but some other actions still cause the glitch to happen. Various NPCs including Gillie Groats and Milk sellers have also experienced this glitch.

Magic Carpet Glitch
On 22 February 2011, a magic carpet glitch was discovered. After boarding a magic carpet, the player's avatar would amusingly 'run on the spot' (movement only occurring with the legs while the arms remained crossed as normal) while riding the carpet, as if they were travelling normally by foot with run still on. As of the discovery date, the glitch occurred to every player using the magic carpets.

Talking to the dead Glitch
If a player has completed the quest While Guthix Sleeps, and wants to talk to Duradel again, although he got killed during the quest, the player can easily do so. The player, however, does require the level 50 slayer and level 100 combat. It is performed by getting a task from Mazchna (unknown if this glitch works with other masters, but they have to be a lower level master than Lapalok), and finishing it. Then, using the enchanted gem to ask Mazchna the question "How am I doing so far?". This makes Mazchna say: "Hold on while I transfer you to someone more suitable." After that, the player will talk to Duradel again, but ONLY if that is the highest level slayer master the player can get.

Easter event 2009 Glitch
During the 2009 Easter event, a glitch was discovered. It could occur if the player used a protection prayer, then changed into a rabbit and went into the hole and came back. Then player would get poisoned. This also occurred on free worlds, where it's impossible to get cured from poison other than dying or waiting for poison to wear off. It is unknown how many people this happened to.

Music Change Glitch
This glitch can be performed if you are not playing your playlist or did not manually play a song from the song list. If you teleport and lag, The name of the song previouslly playing changes to the new track, but the last song you were listening to still plays.

Duel Arena wall Glitch
When leaning on any wall in the Duel Arena, and using an item emote, the item will appear in the emote but the player will stand normally.

Seal Glitch
On 20 April 2011 a glitch was discovered involving the Explorer's Ring and the Seal emote. The player, once teleported and tap-clicked the seal emote right away after the teleportation process was completed, would become a glitched up seal. This glitch has yet to be fixed.

Runecrafting Glitch
Occasionally when you gain many levels at once at the Runecrafting skill, it will display like this: " You have just advanced 0 Runecrafting levels!"

OpenGL Display Mode Glitch
On 1 February 2011 where the Wilderness & Free Trade came back, a unexpected glitch happened with the OpenGL display mode. The glitch is that the HUD/Mini-map becames messy/out of place, it can even sometimes load textures from other games that uses OpenGL if one should should play in this display if they played that game first. As of this day, some users are still affected by this glitch.

A Jagex Mod confirms of the OpenGL Display Glitch.

Clan Cloak Glitch
Recently, as of June1, 2011, there have been a series of glitches involving the clan cloak. When performing common actions such as cutting ivy, or fishing lobsters, two strings of the clan cloak appear to be stretched from standing position down to where the players character is. The strings are the color of the back of the clan cape, not the trim. This glitch has yet to be fixed.
