World 347 glitch

The World 347 Glitch was a glitch that occurred on 24 April 2018. It happened when Jagex were switching back servers that were previously down for scheduled maintenance, however one of the worlds, World 347, was given Deadman Mode status which it had prior to maintenance, and players who were still on the world prior to switchover were still using their main server accounts. As a result, some players died and happened to be subject to Deadman Mode penalities such as losing their most valuable items and stat reductions. This resulted in accounts with game-breaking attributes, such as a player who had previously achieved 99 Herblore who died during the glitch. Due to the way the Deadman Mode mechanics work, his Herblore was reduced to 98 and he still held the skillcape.
