'''Pillory''' is a [[random event]]. Players may be sent to the pillory by a [[pillory guard]]. Prior to the [[25 February]] [[2009]] update to Random Events, it was only available to members attempting to use the [[Thieving]] skill or by random (rarely). However, it has now been '''confirmed''' that one can get this event any time, anywhere.

The player must unlock the cage to escape, by clicking on the correct symbols.

It starts out with three locks; if a player misses, it resets and an additional symbol is added up to a maximum of five symbols.

When the pillory random event is solved, a reward is received. The only possible reward from this random is a [[Random event gift]].

Before the 25 February 2009 update, some players would attempt to steal from stalls beyond their level. They wouldn't be able to steal, but were still able to get random events pertaining to stealing.

The pillory cages are located in [[Varrock]] east of the [[general store]], in the western part of [[Seers' Village]] and slightly north of the bank in [[Yanille]]. While people are completing the event, the people outside can buy [[rotten tomato]]s from [[Pelter's Veg Stall]], the crate located near the pillories, for 1 coin and throw them at the player, although this does not affect their progress.

Outside the pillory, the [[tramp]], a [[non-player character]], throws rotten tomatoes at the players inside.

Note that it ''is'' possible to teleport out of the pillory.

== Pillory Bug ==

The pillory bug allowed a Member to get into the pillory in a Free-to-play world. First, the player had go to a member's world and steal using the [[Thieving]] skill until they get the pillory random event. If the player was teleported to the Varrock pillory, the player could have then logged out and world switch to a Free-to-play world. It was impossible to get into the Varrock pillory any other way. Free players also could throw rotten tomatoes at the player in the pillory.

Solving the pillory lock while on a free world would teleport the player to Lumbridge without a reward.

This has become obsolete now that the Pillory has become a free-to-play event.

As if the player gets this event on a browser, it may shut down the game and they have to restart the whole game, still being in the event.
