Just as the title says, post some little things in RuneScape that annoy you whenever it happens. I'll start us off.

• Getting killed in the Wilderness Agility Course, even though you have absolutely NOTHING on you (save for a small amount of cheap food).
  
• Seeing a few members of a dicing clan spam-advertise a drop party at the GE in a "train" of sorts.
  
• Getting crashed by a team at GWD while you're with your team and you're in the middle of a kill streak
  
• Getting killed by a DG boss, only to find out it only had ~10hp left before it killed you.
  
• When you put in an offer for something that's like 10x over the GE price, and it STILL doesn't buy.
  
• When you put in a sell offer in the GE for 1gp, and it actually sells for 1gp.
  
• Having a system update occur while you're in the middle of a huge skill grind (happened to me twice while I was on a 10 hour herblore binge)

So RSC, what ticks YOU off?

[Milktea4me]

The lag time when QBD spawns Souls and you immediately run thus having the attack follow you rather than attacking the souls.

Well this is the RuneScape community we're talking about, and we are known to get mad at well . . . everything

I don't really get bothered by much in the game. I dislike spammers around the grand exchange and daemonheim, that's about it.

Pretty much this

And of course a huge thing, bots.

This is literally my only complaint.  I despise spammers... But other than that (and EoC), I have no complaints.

[Murdoc]

If you're going to say "everything" at least provide examples of things that really stand out the most...

As for me personally, I'd have to agree with Jay as well. Due to the fact I tend to keep to myself/Zchat when I'm not playing with RL-mates and generally stick to AFK'able skills - all the bits and bobs which set other players off just get steadily tuned out the longer I'm on for... Trolls are easy to ignore by turning public chat off/kick from the FC, I grudgingly accept misclicks as my own fault ( ), no longer PvM/PK to periodically endure the miseries associated with them, and the list goes on. It's easy to stand back and see RuneScape for what it is, a simple online game... Is there thus genuinely any point stressing myself over its trivial shenanigans when in the grand scheme of things it's not particularly important one way or another? Nah...

"Whn ppl tlk l1k3 th1s."

I mean, it's not much harder to just press one or two more keys on the keyboard :(

[spoonheb]

Not exactly a Runescape thing.. but when my internet connection drops and I disconnect, especially in a dung floor or PvM'ing.

Also less so lately but since EoC people who have to share how much the game sucks, and how Jagex is money-hungry, and how there's some sort of conspiracy or scam behind Solomon's / SoF put in place by investors who are "running the game into the ground". That along with "Jagex doesn't care about the game", when obviously they do because it's what their companies built on and it's paying their salaries.

50% loading bug. Happening more often these days and its rather annoying. I want to go to POP but no 50% loading have to restart. Try to go into POP 50% loading. Jagex fix the 50% loading crap.

[Blackenese]

That the wilderness is D34d so theres nothing to do.

I use to love leaving my private chat on for old friends I haven't seen in years to contact me. Every few days someone would PM and it was always delightful to chat with them. Unfortunately if I leave it on for more than 2 minutes I get spammed with advertisements.

Also the general community is a lot negative than it once was. Recently I've been playing World of Warcraft and I notice a significant difference in the atmosphere.

[Ankit]

Dying in wars because I'm spamming my chat and not my abilities

[JessyU]

"Do not show me this message again for another 5 days"

[Yorick]

Like others already said, the fact you can not put your private on without receiving 10+ spambot messages in just a few hours.

[Playing Free]

Why are my glorys always leaking? D:!

[Fasty]

The [constant] 50% loading screens that cause the game to freeze & interrupt whatever I'm doing.

[Joao*]

The video ads when you're f2p;
Can't home tele to Falador/Lumbridge or game freezes on 50%

[Isobel]

Being unable to teleport when you have a dialogue box open, with some teleports like home teleport.

Wondering why I can't hit anything on Bork, then looking at my stats tab and realizing all my combat skills are 0 because I accidentally misclicked a dust devil on my way through the chaos tunnels.
