i was at saradomin godwars (no uncommon for me) and everything was going fine. we had a ss split, we were close to 100 kills, and we had close to 1.5m loot each. we were all in good gear (barrows or bandos, furys, godsword, one had claws)

 

 

 

at one point, one of our team died. i thought "he must have lagged or something. no biggie" so naturally i got off zil to run/pot pray/bless his grave.

 

or i tried to.

 

 

 

to my horror,nothing happened. the ENTIRE [bleep]ING SERVER CRASHED. everyone on the team got disconected and died. no chance to bless grave and we all lost upwards of 5-10 mil.

 

 

 

all because jagex [bleep]ing up and crashing a server

 

 

 

i NEVER die at godwars without other influences (lag, dc) and when i do, my grave is blessed before i time out and all is fine

 

 

 

i lost fury, v-helm, 1.5m loot, dragon boots, zerk ring, herblore cape, unicorns+scrolls(3k of them), pots, loot etc.

 

 

 

just because jagex accidently killed the server

 

 

 

if a person dc's, the gravestone should automatically be blessed to an hour. regardless of circumstances. i am royaly PISSED OFF at jagex's screw up

When they crash a server they could at least automatically log everyone out, or as you said bless everyone's graves that die. #-o

 

 

 

I think jagex said they are working on the grave dissapearing if you lag out issue, but having your grave automatically blessed if you lag out could be abused by people just pulling out the wire in their router if they die soloing something.

Though i like your idea, i think its a little bit easy to abuse.

 

 

 

Oh no, im dieing, lets pull out my modem so i have 1 hour gravestone.

 

 

 

I think its better if you die and then disconnect, your grave timer is freezed, and when you log in again it starts ticking.

or if jagex knows a server has/is/going to crash, just bless every grave. just ANYTHING to stop this from happening to other people (possibly for alot more than me)

Wow, that is lazy of them. When I dc'ed doing Great Brain Robbery (Server Crash) they did a 5min rollback.

Yea, last time i dc'ed they did the same.

Who else was in the team?

kjeldoran90 was leader, i dont know the names of the rest (rsof team)

these things are not predictable, and not the fault of jagex. it is most likely the fault of the people who run the server farm, though it could of course be to a power outtage or something else in that region.

they have done rollbacks before and they can tell when a server crashes, so they could easily have done it >_<

The do a rollback when its a mass server crash, not a single server.

i was talking about these parts.

 

 

 

as for roll backs, i'm really not sure what the process behind those is, so i'm not going to talk about them. i do agree that there are a lot of situations that would seem to warrant a roll back, but for all we know, it's a horribly time consuming or difficult to implement on the fly procedure

yeah, those bits where one in the heat of the moment when i was PISSED. i realise now that it coulda been any number of reasons...but...yeah. someone or something screwed up somewhere and wasnt my fault, and it got me killed

Heh, dc'ing is my middle name, I've dc'd at every single boss I've been to, so I know how it feels. I find it quite sad that when something like this happens, alike the µ glitch, JaGex couldn't really do much to help you. Say, in PvP, if someone died with a server crash, what is JaGex going to do? Give them a blessed grave? There are flaws in your solution, but it's not impossible to find workarounds.

 

 

 

I agree that dcing is causing problems, and server crashes too, when something like this happens, it's no one's fault, or everyone's fault. It's hard to know what to do.
