Play RuneScape Private Servers (RSPS)

RuneScape Private Servers (also known as "RSPS") have been around almost as long as RuneScape itself. Many players prefer to play RSPS over RuneScape because they find it more fun and some don't have the time to devote to RuneScape in order to get the items and levels they desire. RSPS offers them more entertainment.

We have provided several tips for players who are not familiar with RSPS or are unsure how to start.
