If you're interested in these types infamous gaming moments, you should look up the world of warcraft disease spread back in vanilla wow. Basically a boss had a mechanic that put a disease on the player, but the disease could also be placed on hunter pets. A hunter left the raid and spread the disease killing thousands of players. It was actually used in studies to show how people react to a plague being spread as players were avoiding people and major cities because major cities were a death sentence to enter due to the disease.

on the other hand, it was a way better community. People just hanging out, having drop parties for no reason, playing the game as intended. Asking to see qpc or rc emotes because they were so cool and it was a BIG deal to have them. Nowadays you can be maxed and worth 11 digits and still be nobody.

I have had the pleasure to have spoken to Zezima once in RS2 and in OSRS the true legend of the game. I hope this game lives on forever.

I was Durial321s friend. I remember logging in that day to hear what was happening but I didn’t care enough training in the wild at the time. I was in ts and he was so excited to commit the massacre. The good old days

2 minutes in and this is legendary. Thank you for the effort you give to the community. Excellent music and transitions btw.

It's crazy to think that only a couple thousand of us max were actually there for that. I was so young and truthfully didn't even fully understand what I was witnessing or how monumental it was going to be. I was 15 years old in 2006. I can't stress how many hours I've spent looking through footage people have collected hoping to find my original RS name caught in any of it but of course with my luck it wasn't hah. thankfully for me I was poor noob and didn't have alot back in 06. Durial was targetting players wearing gear/rares so people like me who had little to nothing were just following him around with no threat towards us. I remember Jmods and Player Mods warning us over and over to bank our items, Some players were standing right next to me risking P hats who weren't listening to the warnings as it almost seemed like some sort of joke made by Jmods so some of us didn't even think it was actually real until I seen a player die and his stuff appeared then it turned into madness and people started sprinting for the banks. lmao. I'm in my 30's now and there are so many more memories this game has created for me over the years. I play RS3 still and i'm close to Trimm. Thank you WILL for re-creating some of these memories in a production style reminder. I know theres a ton of people like me who have played this game since they were 11 years old who love watching these and love having our brains refreshed. This is a great video and I enjoyed the entire hour. Thanks to jagex for creating a game we all love and have had with us since we were children! Much love from the USA! - Ezle

[@kiq654]

Out of curiosity why you didnt play real mmo, like wow or anarchy online, eve etc. This always felt like stupid, even in 06 or before

[@LFSPharaoh]

@@kiq654 🤦‍♂️ jfc I’m speechless

[@EzleRS]

@@kiq654 I didn't like any of them & still don't. i play alot of MMO's now but back then I only loved runescape lol

[@shawnjohnson4318]

Because RuneScape is obviously better

[@jungle5663]

Likely one of the best documentaries that has ever been done on any event this game has ever seen. Extremely well done and it's not hard to tell that a lot of time and effort went into this.

[@thestankinator6737]

This was such an amazingly well put together documentary about the whole story. I learned so many things I never even knew about it, like how smart Durial played the glitch! Well done.

[@shredwerd009]

The stars aligned for this fateful day. Everything just happened perfectly to create a legendary event. I was not there but i was an active player at the time. What a wild ride. Didn't know other players actually had the variable either, just shows how much Duriel took the spotlight on the event. Great video

[@flatlanderuk]

I was online during this on another world and news traveled fast! By the time I arrived it was all over. Now as an oldie I no longer play and have not for many years, but this memory will never be forgotten, along with so many others from these days, times where different back then, unless you was around you’d probably never understand rushing home telling all your school friends to log into same world and meet at a certain location. Time flys guys, it really does! Remember that. RIP

[@giveittomebaybe5112]

I know man. Me and my boy hells venom. We rode the same buss. Trained with dragon hallys. Best of times man

[@jinndalinn5912]

haven't played RuneScape in over 14 years but still remember this event crazy how time flys

[@schnudercheib]

I don't even play RS but I sat through the whole thing and enjoyed every single minute of it. Well done!

[@skulldozer2259]

i just started playing osrs a couple months ago. 20 years old, so i would've been 3 when all this happened. the size and age of this community and all of the history surrounding it astounds me and is why i put so many hours in as i do.

[@korjezilla]

I've never seen this game, I just saw a short about this bug and decided that i need to know more about it. And I chose this video. Was worth it 💙

[@DatGuyYonder]

Great Documentary WillMissIt! I remember signing on and being told to go to Fally because crazy shit was going down. Amazing how monumental the Fally Massacre is to this very day!

[@willow802]

What an amazing deep dive. Thank you for the amount of work you put into your videos

[@justinmoser2598]

I was 8 when this happened and not there myself, but I was at my friends house with him watching it happen. I dont remember much but I remember being scared that my friend was going to lose his stuff

[@drewjensen2798]

I just want to say, the storytelling in this video is up with there and even surpasses some of the journalistic content on KZbin right now. Great work.

[@GrizlyWizard]

This is an amazing video. Extremely well made, well paced, I was glued to my screen the whole time.

[@DeveusBelkan]

It's hilarious how a video game glitch can burn a memory into your mind for years to come. I remember being online at the time and I was chatting to some friends while questing around the dwarven mines. Good thing I was on a different world. My poor teenage self would have been devastated to lose some basic rune armor.

[@Bleiser3]

Never would I think that 1 hour of runescape video would be this entertaining! Good job!

[@modsilent1992]

I remember i was 14 years old and was spamming " everyone back your items now!!". Everyone was in full panic mode and the rich people logged or teleported out. Thats why you didn't see them in the video's back then. i saw Durial ingame and everyone started following him and spamming "kill me dur , kill me dur". I would give everyting to go back in time those were some good days.

[@AArdW01f]

I was there that day. 6/6/06 EST I was 14

[@eldenrivas7842]

I was friends with these guys back in the day oh how the nostalgia fills my heart looking at my old friends in the friends list. Wow so much nostalgia even hearing teamspeak haha I haven't played in 12 years 😂

[@jacobburr3570]

Yeah it's wild how an old mmo game like RS can have so many great memories. Thousands of people over the course of donzens of years. I have many great memories from RS. Made friends and had some good laughs. :) Have a great day!

[@Meowthix]

This has to be VoodooLegion! The traitor!

[@juju-kz3ud]

Bro I love watching your content but sometimes I don't because some videos don't have subtitles, since for my current level of English it's a bit difficult to fully understand when you speak and then the subtitles help me, I've learned a lot of English thanks to the game, the wiki and the videos of youtubers like you, so thank you very much pro tip: try to implement subtitles so you can reach more viewers, a warm hug from Colombia

[@jakob-o7536]

This is true but think about the extra work that has to be done to put that in place.

[@rswillmissit]

Hey! All of my videos has subtitles in english - although the new ones need a couple hours to process. Should be sorted if you check in later :-)

[@juju-kz3ud]

@@rswillmissit thanks you boss for your videos

[@automativefusion5523]

Hi there, I was really impressed with the detail and way this documentary was made. I haven't played runescape for 5 or 6 years but after I saw this, I brought a runescape bond and renewed membership for 14 days. This video definitely had the old skool feels.

[@raine_dead]

my roommate who was very passively watching was sucked right into all of this. Good job!!
