im prob going to get flamed for this but here goes, i find it disturbing that you are all treating these people like criminals or looking upon them with pity. What they are doing isnt illegal, and quite frankly the oooonnnly reason jagex even devotes resources to banning "autoers" is because they are aggravated that someone found a way to profit off their system, and in a way they cannot control. .im going to go out on a limb here and correct me if im wrong, but based on my knowledge of constructed systems such as runescape, the only way to to locate real world trading would be to trace high profile trades, Ie large quantity's of gp's or items being traded at once, the problem with this is that friends tend to do similar things....which leads me to believe there is no accurate way to eliminate the buying and selling of the currency from the buyers prospective. i believe to truly fix this problem jagex is going to have the review the way the game itself works and recreate it........ie heres an idea......have trees spawn in completely random places...instead of in the same spot every time, have dragons roam around the wild instead of spawning in set zones every time, not only would things such as this add a life like aspect to runescape it would severely upset the auto world for quite some time
