The Constitution protest was a riot where players gathered to protest Jagex's changing of the former Hitpoints skill to the current Constitution skill. The change was implemented on 3 March 2010, and involved multiplying players' and NPCs' health by ten and renaming the health 'life points'. However, damage factors were also multiplied. For example, a basic level 19 ghost, which could only deal up to 2 points of damage per attack before the update, could now hit a maximum of 27 life points (which would have equated to a maximum of 2.7 hitpoints before).
