What's the highest amount of peoples online on RS?

Should be fun to see the servers crashing every few minutes due to the people on them.

The most I remember 2007'ish was around 257k players.

I can't even move on any worlds as it is due to these [cabbage] servers(My internet, computer, graphics card are all perfectly fine for rs - so I can surely get rid of those as reasons)

Will hate to see how it is after February

If you quote me please be sure to note that I'm extremely mad.

It's been in the 260-270k region a very few times. Almost all of which are actually SINCE the ge came out to all those people yelling about the glory of pre-GE. I think the most I've ever seen was slightly over 270k. Doubt it has been over 275k, and anyone who says anything much over 280k is talking bs.

I'm lol'ing at how it was SO HIGH back then, it's been at 270 this weekend.

Hmmmm maybe I should have asked for highest pic you could screen ;) :P

 

Anyway, it's a nice 211K atm and raising :D!

 

 

 

*edit:

 

231,557 :P!

310k is impossible, jagex had a 22 new world update in 2008, there are currently 171 worlds, meaning there were 149 worlds at that time, MEANING the maximum possible people was 298 000, and i SINCERELY doubt there was ever a time when all the worlds were full

232,385 right now and slowly raising, but I'm gonna sleep :) :P!

 

I haven't seen such a amount for ages btw.

More people = more lagg.

Free trade/wildy has flaws in it :D

Maybe that's because of the update that looms over us.

^ This.

 

I was on RSOF and some people said it got up to 500k at a time and one was even stupid enough to say 1M (I'm still wondering if he was trolling me, couldn't tell).

 

I doubt it ever got to 300K in all honesty.

Come to my Clan chat (I'm there if I'm online) if you wish to borrow a Green H'ween mask, Blue H'ween Mask, Red H'ween Mask, or Santa for a reasonable price.

I think that the most I have ever seen that counter is around 180k. And that was a very long time ago.

Rofl? There are 185,760 people currently online..

204k on at the moment. Will be interesting to see what the update does to it.

^ Maximum ever 252.8k? Bs.

207955 people playing at the time of this post

 

I think it's safe to say the update will bust the counter over the 250K mark, maybe even 270K

That'd be awesome :D

There was around 240k when I logged in late yesterday afternoon (GMT). Surprisingly Slayer spots weren't that crowded but I suspect we will probably see some new servers/worlds in the not too distant future if the number of players remains this high.

I think that the new peak (players returning because of free trade/wildy) has been already reached even though the updates haven't been launched yet. Everybody who's interested has already returned and started prepping. I'd say the amount of players will start going downhill again about a month from now.

I think you're forgetting the worlds which are not in english when you're counting the max possible people online. Anyways, 1st of Feb will probobly set a new record, whatever the old record is.

It hasn't been reached if the update hasn't come yet everyone is going to be logged in for the update
