| - The World 147 PvP glitch was a glitch that happened on October 15th, 2008, that let a few players player kill others in a non-PvP world. On the release date of the PvP worlds, two English friends, Chrissx58 (level 61 warrior) and Haunting618 (level 69 warrior), decided to go player killing on World 150, a German PvP world. Because of the moderator's quick action, about 20 out of the 30 people in the bank logged out. As Chris saw that a mod was there, he messaged Haunting to follow him as he ran to the Grand Exchange.

| - The World 147 PvP glitch was a glitch that happened on October 15th, 2008, that let a few players player kill others in a non-PvP world. On the release date of the PvP worlds, two English friends, Chrissx58 (level 61 warrior) and Haunting618 (level 69 warrior), decided to go player killing on World 150, a German PvP world. After about 15 minutes of PKing, they collectively scored six kills, and were each only killed once. They decided to go to a non-PvP world for a bit to merchant their wins, and not accidentally run into a combat zone and get killed. They both teleported to Varrock, logged out in the West bank, and hopped to World 147, another German server. They both logged out at the same frame and both correctly entered their usernames and passwords within the 35 second limit, logging them both in on the same frame. Once logged in, Chissx58 aimed his mouse at a banker and clicked so he could retrieve his drops he had PKed, and clicked. Surprising to him, he instead attacked a level 54 who was banking. Not many people noticed the PKing in the bank until a nearby Player moderator noticed, and yelled "Glitcher!", "He's Pking ppl!", and "Everybody switch server!". Because of the moderator's quick action, about 20 out of the 30 people in the bank logged out. As Chris saw that a mod was there, he messaged Haunting to follow him as he ran to the Grand Exchange. By the time they left the bank, the moderator was messaging a Jagex staff member himself, telling him about the person who was glitching. In the Grand Exchange, Haunting and Chris started attacking anyone who had anything of value. After a few minutes, Chris had killed a guy with full Saradomin armor, and Haunting was lucky enough to kill a guy with full Dragon. Unfortunately for them, they did not get any drops because gravestones were in effect in that world. A few minutes later, that Jagex staff member shut down that server, booting everyone who was logged in to it. They also temporarily banned everyone who was in Misthalin at the time of the shut down until Jagex could figure out who exactly it was that was bug abusing. Throughout the next two hours, players were unbanned one by one without any offences left on their record. As for Chrissx58 and Haunting618, they were both permanently banned. By mid-November, both Chris and Haunting had successfully appealed to Jagex, getting their bans lifted. They both stayed permanently muted without the possibility to appeal.
