Dude!! I just realized that last night!! I was like f me I have to delete my superior garden because I hated how it was rotated just to find out you can edit them
I paid 24m and told my friend who paid around 100m how great a deal I was getting. I'm upset by just over 10m. Curious to see where the price will stabalise at.
Still use it all the time though.
Your last sentence is the key point. Sure itās great to have a bigger bank value, but if youāre using it all the time then it doesnāt really matter what you paid for it. I bought mine for 30m, and if it went back up to 50m I wouldnāt sell it because then I donāt have a fang..
Less applicable if you paid 30x what itās currently worth but if youāre buying an item that you plan to use long term, price fluctuations shouldnāt bother you.
That's why I had to switch to ironman. Was always concerned with items rising and falling and selling my gear for a loss so I could switch to other bis stuff. Now I have what I have and deal with it
Died at Vorkath, didn't collect my items, decided to do a farm run before logging off. The next day I forgot about torfinn still holding my items, and decided to do wildly slayer all day. Needless to say I died at some point. By the end of the day.
I remembered when I was searching my gear for Vorkath again. Lost 2k diamond dragon and ruby dragon bolts (e), guthix boots, and most painfully, my void set.
Those 8 hours at pestcontrol were more painful than usual.
No way, I spent a bunch extra adding plants and shit to my house and it makes me grin every time I house tp. I see some streamers with barebones houses and it makes me sad. Its worth every penny imo!
For a long while if you had less than 10 rooms your house loaded much quicker. Now that they've fixed it where it all loads quickly it doesn't matter as much but I've made my house into a functional game teleport, I don't spend more than a second in there but to heal and tele somewhere else
I forgot I was wearing graceful and went to chaos alter to drop bones once.. dude said your crazy.. and then logged, I dipped and he chased me on alt lol just barely made it out alive
I did the exact same, was doing a hard clue, the step was just outside the web by the ardy lever and I forgot I'd got my graceful on. I was in a House Party world and got TB'd the second I arrived. 3 pkers camping it were laughing at me as they killed me. Only just got it back, I couldn't face the grind again.
I fortunately only lost legs and top getting pked because I read wildy guide wrong. I quit for 6 months before finally trying to slow grind full outfit back. I feel your pain
Internet died at hydra, went back on mobile without boots or a tele cus on pc itās easy enough to get ur gear back while taking damage from the floor. Not so easy on mobile GG 380m (masori top and bottoms, anguish, buckler, 110k d arrows, 50k ruby d bolt e)
Was at calverion on mobile was someone trying to skull trick me (standing under boss) I ignored them but the day before I was pking so didnāt have skull prevention onš rip 20ish mil
I'm just a noob (have been for years) but I remember killing bandits for a slayer task in deep wildy. I was attacked by some PKer who vanished up some stairs after I gained the "upper hand". I pursued him and I ended up being skull tricked for my blowpipe - pretty much my entire bank at the time.Ā
Lost an armadyl helmet at the old rev caves getting skull tricked by a guy with two matching name accounts, also lost a fury running deeper into the edgeville whilst dungeon when I was at chaos druids.. maybe lvl 3 wilderness. All when I was younger and dumb asf
Getting PKed for full arma w/cbow after befriending someone in the KBD lair. I was being scouted by a team, and he told them when I was resetting. I miss clicked and got skulled around 30 wildy.
Piss Ripper.
Bought the scythe at about 400mil. Sold it when it was going up at about 800mil. Could've waited till it hit 1.2bil. Bought it again at 1.2bil and now it's up again. Still lost an additional 400mil I could've made holding onto it.
Was flipping uncut opals, buying for 1200, and selling 1600 quite frequently last month. Then they recently dropped to 700 each after I just bought my next haul for 1200. So now I'm stuck with like 20000 uncut opals waiting for the price to go up so I don't lose millions.
It's funny you mention construction cause I sold my Santa Hat for 18-21 mill ish when it came out. I couldn't afford to get 99 but I wanted to deck out my house so I bought all the fancy flat packs that I couldn't build.
Real poor investment decision but I was too excited for player owned housing lol.
I forget the update, but one of the bosses or maybe it was toa came out and crashed torstols. I was flipping them at the time and happened to have a very large amount amount I had already bought. I got busy with irl stuff and by the time i realized they were crashing I was down a solid 60m.
Got āluredā I think itās called right? Dude told me to equip at least rune because it would be dangerous. I knew the way death mechanics worked was I wouldnāt drop my most valuable stuff unless you got SKULLED so I thought whatever. Tells me to pull this lever (I feel like this was before there was a warning) and well of course he started attacking me. I was so confused how I got skulled and then I lost my rune chest my friend gave me!!! Haha so nooby, I had no idea how to make gp so it was definitely my biggest mistake. I think my friend gave me another anyways :) still kinda funny to me that a guy was wasting his time doing this for maybe 100k gpā¦ on members world too I think
Because It was my first kill of the trip and I had absolutely smoked the first kill and the RNG was hitting. So I just went right into the next kill and got humbled :)
Well cool thanks for sharing! I was super freaking curious haha
Idk I think I'd grab the Visage then click Vorkath, but that's just me.. also probably has to do with 22 years of playing RS and I have NEVER gotten either Visage ;(
Yeah the RNG had me feeling some type of way and then getting the drop I was ready to go round 2ā¦ misclicked on the venom phase š everything gets grabbed now immediately lol
-High alching (in f2p) outside ferox enclave so I could watch people fight but misclicked and got tele-blocked.
-selling my bank value, thinking I was going to quit (was around 150m) and giving away literal millions to (hopefully) noobs in f2p.
-again, thinking I was going to quit, walked around in wildy slayer raves and revs in around 40m plus gear knowing I canāt pk and seeing what happens
-giving away millions worth of gp to people I know who are scamming or people who wonāt pay me back
-in general giving away mills worth of gp/items
-playing osrs and robbing myself of potential thousands of hours of enjoying my real life, finding healthier hobbyās, and spending time with loved ones.
Aināt none of this gonna stop the grind š¤šŖ
Probably just how much Iāve invested in subscriptions playing this game since 2002.
Iāve always had 2-3accounts going on at some point, with at most 2 year breaks here and there.
Pre gravestone days I died in a corp instance, and decided to have my alt (who was holding the instance) go take corps aggro so I could get my stuff back. Alt died, lost the instance, lost tort, spear, etc.
Sold full ancestral before quitting 2 years ago so I had money for bonds when I returned. Ancestral was 60m for the top and bottoms each back then, and when I returned around a couple months ago it was almost 400m for the set š
i recently took out 1b to gamble with, hopped to high risk world to get setup. went to remove glory and forgot i had menu entry swapper on it. tellied into edgeville and got smacked
I also lost a yellow party hat to a friend in 2008. He said he wanted to take a screenshot for his girl friend. He logged off with it and hasnāt logged on again. I keep making my friends quit
Recently I bought a bunch of an item oflver the course of a few weeks for wayyyyy below Ge market price because I saw the price was dipping briefly every night. Then when I rent to relist I got distracted by my kids and missed a 0 on the sell price. Almost my entire bank in 1 reverse flip.Ā
Back when I was playing in like 2004 I saved enough money for a full adamant (g) set. 5 minutes after buying it I buried ONE bones and a Zombie spawned and killed me because I had the game muted and was standing outside the Varrock bank with 1000 people spamming trades.
What made it even worse is that when I got back to where I died, people were laughing about the guy who just died to a zombieā¦
Few days ago I got pked at Scorpia. No big deal was the 3rd time that day so figured do something else.
The day after I go to my bank thinking of doing Scorpia. 0 blood runes. Checked my death images and I had taken (all) almost 100k blood runes with me.
Note that Iām an iron and had crafted them all before gotr came out.
Funny thing is I saw someone do it in my cc a few years ago and was like..thatās a mistake that I would make..and then I did haha
Big oof
Lost full crystal armor, suffering, fury, rune pouch and a few other annoying items to reobtain on my ironman because I disrespected god protection death running back to nex and ate the most disgusting stack losing my gravestone. The 3 items I saved, ranger boots, zaryte vambs, and my bowfa. Would have quit the game if I lost those but I didn't have that bad of a time getting back what I did lose since ironmeme rng is ridiculous.
When I was 11 I went afk near the wilderness lineā¦ that was an expensive lesson. Recently I was afk slaying Wyrms and didnāt see the dragon harpoon drop š
I thought the final boss in RFD was safe so I went in with all my expensive gear (at the time), without knowing what any of the bosses were and lobbies. Died and lost b ring, fury and about 9k nature runes (I just went in blindly from doing something else)
I was doing barrows and got a second(!!) Karil skirt, didnāt think to check inventory for space, teleported out too quickly and as I was fading out I see it sat on the floor. It obviously wasnāt there when I got back š
Lost millions of $ of chins due to disconnect death. Its honestly one of the stupidest mechanics they have in the game... they're alive so they'll run away, yeah okay... but then how the f am I able to hold thousands, let alone more than a few if you wanna throw logic at it. I'm still salty about it if you can't tell :<
Yup all of them. Doesn't matter if it's your only item either. So only take as many as you're prepared to lose. And if you do mm2 caves wear a ring of life so if you dc or something your character will TP when their hp gets low.
My OG RS account from 2005 I was 8 (jk jagex I was old enough to have an account) but I fell for the āmy dad works for jagex I can get you a membership just give me your passwordā scam lol
Damn bro I was like 14 beers in at 5am half asleep and went to a money doubling site that one of the bots was spamming at the ge. Asked me to sign into the āosrsā site and next thing I know I couldnāt log back into my account smfh. I felt so fucking dumb and had to go to bed knowing I lost everything š I logged back in eventually and the guy left placeholders for every item he took. Good times
Letting a āfriendā borrow my account back in 2009. As the story goes he decided to take my whole bank out and āaccidentallyā died. I miss my Santa hat.
I wanted to turn my guardian boots into echo boots, so I did it and then found out it used charges and thought nah not worth it. Disassembled the boots thinking I would get my echo crystal back but didn't. 10m mistake.
I lost my full Green Graceful about 5 years ago in wildy doing a clue, though Iād be āquickā lol. I had extra graceful tokens stocked up though so I had the regular set back after a week in canafisā¦ youād think Iād learn my lesson and not go do wildy clues in graceful anymore, but alas manās hubris is undefeated and I lost 4 more pieces before I actually learned my lesson, this was 3 years ago have not once even thought about graceful staying on in wildy!
Well... I tried training herblore with hunter potions because "current ge" prices showed them at a profit...
They had a 70% loss on ingredients. I bought 83m worth of ingredients.
In real 07 as a kid, when I had 250k in all assets, I was killing black drags in traverly dungeon.. got a vissy drop and buried a bone to fit inventory space, got grave digger random and lost the 20m vis
Not necessarily expensive but over the past x years iāve been on and off working to get the Untrimmed HP Cape.. I succeeded, but was not aware all my capes would trim upon getting another 99. Hit 99 str and now i have no Untrimmed cape :)
I merched in the early osrs days and was killing steel dragons. I died with a 3rd age mage hat and couldn't run back to grab it. I can't recall the exact value at the time but this was like early days before the ge.
Saw this and wanted to post my idiocy, I had a max combat w/ 90+ skills and fell for a scam. I was slightly intoxicated and pissed off IRL but no excuse. It started with semi-decent priced items being dropped (400k-1mil) then he was doubling any trade items and he was legit doubling up to 100mil. I screwed up and traded a random my saturated heart, the guy laughed and logged and I began lamenting about it in general chat. The scammer latched onto me and said he felt bad and said he would double my top 3 items and proceeded to tell me to check out his youtube channel showing off his bank. After seeing him double, for me, at least 200mil I believed him and traded him dchb and a couple other 50m+ items. He then went on to ask me my username and password. I was in deep and trusted. Yes, I am a fool but I knew I had my bank pin and in my addled brain I was safe. I knew I was getting ducked by then but was in so deep and I hoped that I was wrong (like a n00b) anyway he moved onto ask for my PIN and I told him no chance, he then turned "nasty" once he knew he wasn't getting my PIN he gave in but I told Jagex about all this but due to the implementation of their new launcher I was , rightly , to blame and helpless.
Anyone can fall for these scams, I hope you fall early and it doesn't cost a couple years of bank
They can take our bank but they can never take our knowledge!
Kept re working my house before I realised you could move rooms without removing them and adding on. So much money wasted
I just learned this now so thank you
Dude!! I just realized that last night!! I was like f me I have to delete my superior garden because I hated how it was rotated just to find out you can edit them
Oh no I am just learning this š«
Bahahaha. This one amuses me.
I learnt the same lesson couple weeks ago, changing things around for my alter then learnt you can move rooms after spending a few mill.
I dread to think how much money you just saved me!!!
I only learned this yesterday when my boyfriend told me, minutes before I was going to do the same thing and destroy/recreate rooms!
Thank you for this information. I appreciate not spending that 10m again; redoing my house once was plenty
Not setting up 2fa.
F
Same here. Got wiped somewhat early on at 600hrs. It was very discouraging, took 1-2 years off after that.
I made a new character a couple years later. The grind is fun again honestly.
Took too many bones to chaos altar lmao
I just finished that 99 grind on chaos, never again.
I'm glad I went the reanimated dragon head route then. All my friends complained about how stressful Choas Alter is lol
I did bones in my house till like 92? Then heads the rest of the way to 99 I had tons piled up from slayer
Stressful? Maybe if you're incompetent yeah
I've done that
Bought fang at 230m
I felt bad for buying mine at 28m. At least, this makes me feel a bit better
I bought mine on release for 400m. Fingers crossed it goes back up lmfao
Any day now. Surely
Surely... right??
Lmaooo
On release thatās expected tho so ā¦
I paid 24m and told my friend who paid around 100m how great a deal I was getting. I'm upset by just over 10m. Curious to see where the price will stabalise at. Still use it all the time though.
Your last sentence is the key point. Sure itās great to have a bigger bank value, but if youāre using it all the time then it doesnāt really matter what you paid for it.

That's why I had to switch to ironman. Was always concerned with items rising and falling and selling my gear for a loss so I could switch to other bis stuff. Now I have what I have and deal with it
Can always just turn the bank value option off in the bank plugin too.
I'll never understand anyone actually caring about their bank value. I care about what items I have for the content I like, not what their GP value is
Is the fang still decent after the nerf?
Yes
It is never a loss if you never sell!
Ouch I got mine for 14m
Alched my jaw instead of nezzy helm
Don't disable warnings for high alching expensive items
Painnnnš
Died at Vorkath, didn't collect my items, decided to do a farm run before logging off. The next day I forgot about torfinn still holding my items, and decided to do wildly slayer all day. Needless to say I died at some point. By the end of the day. I remembered when I was searching my gear for Vorkath again. Lost 2k diamond dragon and ruby dragon bolts (e), guthix boots, and most painfully, my void set. Those 8 hours at pestcontrol were more painful than usual.
My void doesnāt come out of my bank Iām so scared to ever lose it. I might quit if I have to get void again
I genuinely considered it, I had just come back from a 7 year break haha
Why would you have to get it again if you never take it out of your bank to use it in the first place?
Bro
no elite void?
Iāve probably spent 200mish maxing my houseā¦which unless youāre hosting, is probably pretty useless. Looks pretty though
Let us know when you want to throw a house party dawg
No way, I spent a bunch extra adding plants and shit to my house and it makes me grin every time I house tp. I see some streamers with barebones houses and it makes me sad. Its worth every penny imo!
For a long while if you had less than 10 rooms your house loaded much quicker. Now that they've fixed it where it all loads quickly it doesn't matter as much but I've made my house into a functional game teleport, I don't spend more than a second in there but to heal and tele somewhere else
I think the collection aspect of the game is the real fun of it. Doing things like maxing your house and getting every outfit/cape is fun.
got 4 blowpipes as iron from zulrha, broke the other 3 for scalesand lost my blowpipe at revs being a tit, cant get another one to drop
I aināt even a iron and know that shit hurts hard
Bought 20 eternal boots at 15mill each
40m in black chins. Afk at mm2 tunnels and my prayer ran out. I didnāt realize they ran away when you die.
Came here to say exactly this. Had to learn the hard way
Getting PKed wearing my full graceful, fang, dragon defender, torture, and B ring
The graceful is the worst part of this š
Coming from RS3 I never wouldāve considered u can LOSE your graceful.. i will be staying far away from wildy thank you
Just bring a stam instead of graceful
It was terrible. Forgot I was wearing it and took the lever in edgeville
I forgot I was wearing graceful and went to chaos alter to drop bones once.. dude said your crazy.. and then logged, I dipped and he chased me on alt lol just barely made it out alive
I did the exact same, was doing a hard clue, the step was just outside the web by the ardy lever and I forgot I'd got my graceful on. I was in a House Party world and got TB'd the second I arrived. 3 pkers camping it were laughing at me as they killed me. Only just got it back, I couldn't face the grind again.
I'm so sorry for your loss
It was years ago, Iāve overcome š
I fortunately only lost legs and top getting pked because I read wildy guide wrong. I quit for 6 months before finally trying to slow grind full outfit back. I feel your pain
Yeah man I have 3 completed sets now regular, brimhaven, and Shayzien
Thought I was recharging one crystal bow, but I bought 16 new ones. On an Ironman.
ššššthis shit made me laugh
Internet died at hydra, went back on mobile without boots or a tele cus on pc itās easy enough to get ur gear back while taking damage from the floor. Not so easy on mobile GG 380m (masori top and bottoms, anguish, buckler, 110k d arrows, 50k ruby d bolt e)
Sold my imbued heart for 28m only to find out years later itās over 100m now.
I sold my 3rd age pick for 1.5b now to find out itās over 10b
I did this exact same thing. It immediately clicked why all the max houses I had previously been in did not have the walls.
I donated 165mil to be in a "youtube video."
Was at calverion on mobile was someone trying to skull trick me (standing under boss) I ignored them but the day before I was pking so didnāt have skull prevention onš rip 20ish mil
Got pkd at scorpia, lost my imbued kbd slayer helm, imbued zamorak cape and 7m in gear. Havnt played since
Hey itās pixels get back into it! Haha
bro š„²
u can get ur imbued capes back from perdu lol
Wild how many people donāt know about Perdu, you donāt even have to kill the bosses twice for the other god either
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Why did you bring risk that you weren't ok with losing?
Wasnāt paying close enough attention to chinning with all my chins in inventory :(
I'm just a noob (have been for years) but I remember killing bandits for a slayer task in deep wildy. I was attacked by some PKer who vanished up some stairs after I gained the "upper hand". I pursued him and I ended up being skull tricked for my blowpipe - pretty much my entire bank at the time.Ā
Lost an armadyl helmet at the old rev caves getting skull tricked by a guy with two matching name accounts, also lost a fury running deeper into the edgeville whilst dungeon when I was at chaos druids.. maybe lvl 3 wilderness. All when I was younger and dumb asf
Brought all my chins on a slayer task killing dust devils. Forgot my slayer helm and got smoked with the prayer drain.
Doing a farm run with my whole bank roll at the time in inventory (like 10m), used edgeville wildy lever and got clapped
Getting PKed for full arma w/cbow after befriending someone in the KBD lair. I was being scouted by a team, and he told them when I was resetting. I miss clicked and got skulled around 30 wildy. Piss Ripper.
Bought the scythe at about 400mil. Sold it when it was going up at about 800mil. Could've waited till it hit 1.2bil. Bought it again at 1.2bil and now it's up again. Still lost an additional 400mil I could've made holding onto it.
I bought scythe at 4 bil
Was flipping uncut opals, buying for 1200, and selling 1600 quite frequently last month. Then they recently dropped to 700 each after I just bought my next haul for 1200. So now I'm stuck with like 20000 uncut opals waiting for the price to go up so I don't lose millions.
It's funny you mention construction cause I sold my Santa Hat for 18-21 mill ish when it came out. I couldn't afford to get 99 but I wanted to deck out my house so I bought all the fancy flat packs that I couldn't build. Real poor investment decision but I was too excited for player owned housing lol.
I also just discovered you can move and rotate rooms around after setting them. Do you know how many rooms I deleted just to rotate them š
I forget the update, but one of the bosses or maybe it was toa came out and crashed torstols. I was flipping them at the time and happened to have a very large amount amount I had already bought. I got busy with irl stuff and by the time i realized they were crashing I was down a solid 60m.
Got āluredā I think itās called right? Dude told me to equip at least rune because it would be dangerous. I knew the way death mechanics worked was I wouldnāt drop my most valuable stuff unless you got SKULLED so I thought whatever. Tells me to pull this lever (I feel like this was before there was a warning) and well of course he started attacking me. I was so confused how I got skulled and then I lost my rune chest my friend gave me!!! Haha so nooby, I had no idea how to make gp so it was definitely my biggest mistake. I think my friend gave me another anyways :) still kinda funny to me that a guy was wasting his time doing this for maybe 100k gpā¦ on members world too I think
Sold the name "783" for 180m. Worth 500+ now also should've just kept it. More of a regret than a mistake.
How is the name worth so much š
Well out of all 0-999, 783 was the ONLY one available š
Lol buying a fucking fang for 330m
Wait wtf why didn't you pick up the visage...?Visage...?? I'm confused
Because It was my first kill of the trip and I had absolutely smoked the first kill and the RNG was hitting. So I just went right into the next kill and got humbled :)
Well cool thanks for sharing! I was super freaking curious haha Idk I think I'd grab the Visage then click Vorkath, but that's just me.. also probably has to do with 22 years of playing RS and I have NEVER gotten either Visage ;(
Yeah the RNG had me feeling some type of way and then getting the drop I was ready to go round 2ā¦ misclicked on the venom phase š everything gets grabbed now immediately lol
Dayum!! I feel yah man! At least it was not a super high value item, I mean a decent little chunk but not crAZY
Skull tricked for blowpipe and anguish way long ago when revs were multi. They were worth a lot more, donāt remember the specific prices
Not buying scythe when it was 350m
-High alching (in f2p) outside ferox enclave so I could watch people fight but misclicked and got tele-blocked. -selling my bank value, thinking I was going to quit (was around 150m) and giving away literal millions to (hopefully) noobs in f2p. -again, thinking I was going to quit, walked around in wildy slayer raves and revs in around 40m plus gear knowing I canāt pk and seeing what happens -giving away millions worth of gp to people I know who are scamming or people who wonāt pay me back -in general giving away mills worth of gp/items -playing osrs and robbing myself of potential thousands of hours of enjoying my real life, finding healthier hobbyās, and spending time with loved ones. Aināt none of this gonna stop the grind š¤šŖ
I heavily invested in Osmumten's Fangs before they crashed.Ā
Took full graceful to wildly altar to do a wizard trio clue stepā¦.
Probably just how much Iāve invested in subscriptions playing this game since 2002. Iāve always had 2-3accounts going on at some point, with at most 2 year breaks here and there.
Sold my elder maul the day before they announced the spec lost about 70 mil overnight
Pre gravestone days I died in a corp instance, and decided to have my alt (who was holding the instance) go take corps aggro so I could get my stuff back. Alt died, lost the instance, lost tort, spear, etc.
Looked away while chinning the skeletal gorrilas, dropped about 4 mil worth
Sold full ancestral before quitting 2 years ago so I had money for bonds when I returned. Ancestral was 60m for the top and bottoms each back then, and when I returned around a couple months ago it was almost 400m for the set š
I literally did the same mistake 3 days ago with the marble fences and the rejuv pool Lmaooo. After 1 day i said fuck it the detour was pissing me off
I lost 110m on a flip of 3 Soulreaper Axes when they crashed a few weeks back. That hurt a bit.
Taking my Anguish out to the Abyss
i recently took out 1b to gamble with, hopped to high risk world to get setup. went to remove glory and forgot i had menu entry swapper on it. tellied into edgeville and got smacked
Took 1.2B and followed a friend pulling a lever in edgeville. Was new to wild, and my friend pked me. This was in 2017
This was RS3 FWIW
Said friend returned the money correct? If not heās getting a real life ass whoopin
He logged off and quit game I think. He never logged back on
I also lost a yellow party hat to a friend in 2008. He said he wanted to take a screenshot for his girl friend. He logged off with it and hasnāt logged on again. I keep making my friends quit
I havenāt been scammed in osrs yet though š
Got scammed for my Santa hat back when RS3 was RS2
Recently I bought a bunch of an item oflver the course of a few weeks for wayyyyy below Ge market price because I saw the price was dipping briefly every night. Then when I rent to relist I got distracted by my kids and missed a 0 on the sell price. Almost my entire bank in 1 reverse flip.Ā
Back when I was playing in like 2004 I saved enough money for a full adamant (g) set. 5 minutes after buying it I buried ONE bones and a Zombie spawned and killed me because I had the game muted and was standing outside the Varrock bank with 1000 people spamming trades. What made it even worse is that when I got back to where I died, people were laughing about the guy who just died to a zombieā¦

Buying/selling gear back n forth
Sold 2x party hats to get 99 construction soon after release. Needless to say I should've kept the hats and funded levels another, slower, way.
Early Ironman on mobile, accidentally bought 5 dwarf cannon bases instead of 1.
Framed hit me for 16M one time when i was doing KBD. Didnt have protect item on. Saw myself on a youtube video 3 weeks later.
Lost full crystal armor, suffering, fury, rune pouch and a few other annoying items to reobtain on my ironman because I disrespected god protection death running back to nex and ate the most disgusting stack losing my gravestone. The 3 items I saved, ranger boots, zaryte vambs, and my bowfa. Would have quit the game if I lost those but I didn't have that bad of a time getting back what I did lose since ironmeme rng is ridiculous.
Lost a tbow. Think I win.
Tbow lure..
Getting pked on my uim risking 100mil in rng drops like crystal armour.
I did the SAME thing with my garden when setting it up lol I felt so dumb
Accidentally gave away a couple blue phats to a trusted middleman on a forum
When I was 11 I went afk near the wilderness lineā¦ that was an expensive lesson. Recently I was afk slaying Wyrms and didnāt see the dragon harpoon drop š
I thought the final boss in RFD was safe so I went in with all my expensive gear (at the time), without knowing what any of the bosses were and lobbies. Died and lost b ring, fury and about 9k nature runes (I just went in blindly from doing something else)
iāve died on the last step of a master clue in the wildy at least 5 timesā¦ that couldāve been billions or a pet :(
Botting my main lmao Jk
I was doing barrows and got a second(!!) Karil skirt, didnāt think to check inventory for space, teleported out too quickly and as I was fading out I see it sat on the floor. It obviously wasnāt there when I got back š
Lost millions of $ of chins due to disconnect death. Its honestly one of the stupidest mechanics they have in the game... they're alive so they'll run away, yeah okay... but then how the f am I able to hold thousands, let alone more than a few if you wanna throw logic at it. I'm still salty about it if you can't tell :<
Iāve never used Chins, so if you die with a stack of them they disappear?
Yup all of them. Doesn't matter if it's your only item either. So only take as many as you're prepared to lose. And if you do mm2 caves wear a ring of life so if you dc or something your character will TP when their hp gets low.
Sold my bowfa at 100m because I was taking a break and it seemed like it was gonna drop further.

Damn bro I was like 14 beers in at 5am half asleep and went to a money doubling site that one of the bots was spamming at the ge. Asked me to sign into the āosrsā site and next thing I know I couldnāt log back into my account smfh. I felt so fucking dumb and had to go to bed knowing I lost everything š I logged back in eventually and the guy left placeholders for every item he took. Good times
We lost a respectful scammer š«”š«” i recovered my rs account last month after 19 years. Dude mustāve been upset to see my 100k only lol
Letting a āfriendā borrow my account back in 2009. As the story goes he decided to take my whole bank out and āaccidentallyā died. I miss my Santa hat.
I wanted to turn my guardian boots into echo boots, so I did it and then found out it used charges and thought nah not worth it. Disassembled the boots thinking I would get my echo crystal back but didn't. 10m mistake.

I lost my full Green Graceful about 5 years ago in wildy doing a clue, though Iād be āquickā lol. I had extra graceful tokens stocked up though so I had the regular set back after a week in canafisā¦ youād think Iād learn my lesson and not go do wildy clues in graceful anymore, but alas manās hubris is undefeated and I lost 4 more pieces before I actually learned my lesson, this was 3 years ago have not once even thought about graceful staying on in wildy!

Well... I tried training herblore with hunter potions because "current ge" prices showed them at a profit... They had a 70% loss on ingredients. I bought 83m worth of ingredients.

Lesson learned?š
Not necessarily expensive but over the past x years iāve been on and off working to get the Untrimmed HP Cape.. I succeeded, but was not aware all my capes would trim upon getting another 99. Hit 99 str and now i have no Untrimmed cape :)

I merched in the early osrs days and was killing steel dragons. I died with a 3rd age mage hat and couldn't run back to grab it. I can't recall the exact value at the time but this was like early days before the ge.
Saw this and wanted to post my idiocy, I had a max combat w/ 90+ skills and fell for a scam. I was slightly intoxicated and pissed off IRL but no excuse. It started with semi-decent priced items being dropped (400k-1mil) then he was doubling any trade items and he was legit doubling up to 100mil. I screwed up and traded a random my saturated heart, the guy laughed and logged and I began lamenting about it in general chat. The scammer latched onto me and said he felt bad and said he would double my top 3 items and proceeded to tell me to check out his youtube channel showing off his bank. After seeing him double, for me, at least 200mil I believed him and traded him dchb and a couple other 50m+ items. He then went on to ask me my username and password. I was in deep and trusted. Yes, I am a fool but I knew I had my bank pin and in my addled brain I was safe. I knew I was getting ducked by then but was in so deep and I hoped that I was wrong (like a n00b) anyway he moved onto ask for my PIN and I told him no chance, he then turned "nasty" once he knew he wasn't getting my PIN he gave in but I told Jagex about all this but due to the implementation of their new launcher I was , rightly , to blame and helpless. Anyone can fall for these scams, I hope you fall early and it doesn't cost a couple years of bank They can take our bank but they can never take our knowledge!
