When I first read Runescape's frontpage and saw about all the players banned for macroing, I thought it was a relief...days later, I read War of the Robots article from The Editor, here on Tip.It and read this forum thread for a while, thinking my own comments, without writing anything... Since then, I've continued playing Runescape (on members) as I usually do, and continued walking around the map to get to different locations etc, like most people. When I went to ANY yew tree, I would find lvl3 players with strange names "Steve 00097" and others, not answering, not doing anything else than running to bank, come back cut yew. I went check out other yew places, and there was more macroers... I went to fishing spot, still there was macroers. Different skill, but same kind of players:macroers. I decide to cook some stuff, then again, more macroers...i go pick up flax, there was MORE THAN 30 macroers...there were also macroers at blue dragons... Most people probably got to the same logical conclusion i have : INCREASING macroing... Also something else I've noticed...usual macroers are on their own, sometimes created by the same person, but they do their stuff on their own. But I've seen a NEW kind of macroer...the ones that work together...I noticed that macroers with very similar names, in different locations, did skills that relate to each other...I found one grabing flax, giving it to another making bowstrings,who gave em to one that strung yew bows, who also received yew logs from a woodcutter...all level3, with no other skill than the one they were assigned, and doing this 24hours... With this new kind of macroers/autoers, Runescape's inflation might increase to an even worst state. Conclusion...if things continue this way, both F2P AND P2P worlds will have some sort of "end of the world". Skill items' price will greatly decrease, others will increase, Runescape's highscore will be filled with macroers, and honest players will suffer the consequences...as well as Jagex, who could loose a great deal of players that could get angry of the situation. Personally, I've been playing Runescape since Runescape Classic, which is about 4 or 5 years...and yes, i am still a "noob" barely level 90 combat, with no non-combat skill higher then 72...I've used Tip.It since I started playing Runescape and if I'm still this lowlevel, it's because i ENOJY the game, help the people, and never play more than an hour a day...and i also like to just walk around aimlessly in Runescape lol. My point is, because of macroers and that kind of people, many players like I will have to suffer the consequences of playing in a completely messed-up game, or simply quit.... What can WE do??? Nothing...just walk around, report whatever macroers we see, and hope Jagex will be able to continue/improve (alot) their banning personel to save or slowdown Runescape's problems. Jagex has done a great job so far, let's hope it does even better now ;)
