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).

The reason for the implementation of these changes was because Jagex believed that the early levels of RuneScape were tough to understand and learn, and has been consistently working on improvements to that initial part of the game for some time. The Constitution update was recieved with positive reactions by many players, but outraged many others as stated below.
