Leoo Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Recently I had the urge to return back to RuneScape, but I'm suffering from bad lag all of the sudden. When I quitted RuneScape in the summer, I had near enough no lag at all but now I can't even play anymore even if I wanted to. My internet connection is fine and so is my graphics card (graphic's card doesn't seem to matter though as I lag more in standard detail). Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Leoo Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 I actually just used the auto-logging feature (picks a world for you randomly). I'll have a look at some other worlds to see if they also lag just as bad (I'm F2P at the moment, so I don't normally go on a F2P world). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf14141 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 It could be because your computer is re-storing all the graphics back on your graphics card Finally on here to update that I have officially quit!

Low C Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Try doing a virus and spyware scan. You could have spyware and viruses bogging down your computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My anti-virus computer does tons of scans throughout the day and I'm clean from viruses as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylon_Dragadon Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 It could be because your computer is re-storing all the graphics back on your graphics cardThis. When I came back from my most recent Runescape hiatus I experienced this as well and was "lagging", even though my connection was fine. When you scroll through your bank, do some items take longer to appears than others? You could already be past this.Anyway, I wouldn't worry too much. If it persists for like 2 to 3 days then I'd say you have a larger problem. I may put something here eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all appear straight away and I'll guess I'll just give it a few days to see if anything improves :) EDIT: I've found the problem. It was the adverts in F2P that was causing the lag.

010jonathan Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I've blocked those ads as i'm always f2p. I wouldn't mind if there were text ads like google ads but flashing ads while playing a java game, that just sucks :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
