The Pay to Pk Riot occurred primarily in World 66, although there were many other riots occurring at the same time or soon after, some of the more significant including the Mod Hasmo Riot in World 18 and the Unbalanced Trade Riot in World 1. It should also be noted that the riot's name is somewhat misleading, and that many other subjects were brought up besides pking. Along with the riot, a 'mass-logoff' was held at midnight, the day that the update was announced. It is estimated that, at one point, there were fewer than 4,000 people playing at one time. Even to this day, the Pay to PK Riot is considered to be one of the largest, longest, and most impactive player unrests against Jagex in the history of the game. This is primarily because of the extensive and unprecedented measures taken t

  • One of the most well known events in Runescape history was the Pay to PK Riot, also known as the World 66 riot. It occurred in December 2007, when Jagex removed PKing(Player-Killing) from the wilderness and changing the trade and drop policies. These changes were mostly used to prevent scams as most scams included either trading items or luring people into the wilderness. However, most members did not like these changes at all. On World 66, many players decided to go to Falador. Numbers multiplied and soon, there were almost 200 players in one area or more protesting Jagex, saying things such as "Pay to Pk and We Pay, We Say." After the riot began to develop, players began to wear black priest robes to show their support to rioters. Players who supported Jagex then began to wear Blue Dress

This is primarily because of the extensive and unprecedented measures taken to combat macroers, which had very significant impacts on the game as a whole.

Rioters would kill guards, or be killed on purpose and put flowers on their graves and say "R.I.P. Durial", refering to Durial321, one of the most noted rule-breakers in Runescape History.
