Pest Control Riot

On the 16th Juli of 2007, Jagex LTD had made an update which involved the lowering of the PC experience. PC-xp was lowered by 30% on an average, counting all factors, and a lot of users of Pest Control were ranting.

This riot had alot in common with the familiar SAVE SS riot, with the famous words: SAVE SS, OR NO RS. A parody of the statement was called at this riot, namely: OLD PC, OR F2P; stating the players would cancel their memberships if they did not get what they wanted.

(I will edit the ending of the article further, and add a lay-out, as soon as the riot is over. Since the riot is still lasting, I can not give a full report about it's end.)

Similar to the SS-riot, Jagex Mods tried to counter the events, but did not succeed. The riot had to last until players got bored, which took approxmatily (still waiting for a number) hours.

The changes after the Riot are not yet clear, but will probably none, since Jagex already stated in te SS-riot they would not listen to people who are unable to rant in a decent way, and instead try to call in a bunch of friends and start pointless spamming which won't get them anywhere.
