Hi everyone,

I'm thinking about playing some Old School RuneScape private servers in my free time, but I'm a bit concerned about security.

A friend told me that some private servers could potentially log my IP address and somehow use it to gain access to my official OSRS account or even steal items from my bank.

I currently use a separate password and have 2FA enabled on my official OSRS account, but I would like to know how realistic this risk actually is.

Can a RuneScape private server owner or staff member realistically compromise an official OSRS account just by having a player's IP address? Has anyone here had any bad experiences with private servers affecting their real OSRS account?

What security precautions would you recommend before trying a private server?

Thanks!
