How can you RS

Fri Jul 09, 2004 3:08 pm

when the shops are so smurfing laggy? I have a cable modem and it takes at least 30 seconds for the haggle screen to load, then after I've typed my price in it takes at least another 30 seconds--if it doesn't time out and I get a server not found screen--then I have to wait for Kauvara's code to load. How, how, how can I get anything decent in a shop if it takes me over a minutes to even haggle?

I am very frustrated. :x

You really can't. With it being this laggy it's really patience and a ton of luck. When it's like this, I usually go out somewhere... like right now. ;)

I'm not even trying to restock right now. It's impossible.

Almighty RSer Mark isn't trying, then I'm not either. :lol:

I play games when the lag is this bad - I'm wondering if maybe it isn't time to run some diagnostics on the servers or something.

I thought it was just me! :D

Yeah, I was able to restock one item. This lag is just ridiculous. I don't know but they need to do something about this. Everything else on the site loads extremely fast, but when I go to restock. I wait about 15 seconds for the shops to load. Then I wait another 30 seconds for the haggle screen to load. One minute later, the RS code page comes up. It shouldn't take a minute to restock one item...

I wonder how fast it's going for the people that have a 1 MB/sec connection...

Its fixed now, its better now, It was HORRIBLE earlier though :cry:

Much better now :D

Nevermind lag, I can NEVER seem to restock that good! Last item I made even the slightest profit on was a puny Sandwich! I find it not fair that everyone I know has either DSL or Optimum Online, and I get stuck with Dial-Up. I'm starting to lose all hope in getting the Lab Ray.

I go and make a cup of tea and draw something on a Oekaki. Or try very hard to play korbats lab and enjoy hearing zug on pawkeet slots :D

But everytime I think I might RS, I get sidetracked or it lags X_x poor me... *Drinks some more tea*

Same with me.
There is no point in it ... :roll:

Perfect! Now I got 6 items which gave me 40k profit on one restock :o

It seems like it is taking sooooo long for the shops to restock today. Maybe it's just me, though...

Fri Jul 09, 2004 9:47 pm

Yeah, it started slowing down again :x
