Only botting and selling bots/scripts is not illegal. The only thing Jagex can do is like they did to RS Bot... Make it change it's name. Otherwise, botting is completely legal (Although against Jagex's rules).

But see, in your example: Person A lends Person B a bike. Person C then takes the bike from Person B. Person B lost nothing of his own possession/value. Person A was the one who lost something of value to Person C. Now, let's do the same for the RuneScape OP's example. Jagex would be Person A. The difference is that Jagex didn't lose anything of value (The mask/amulet is still theirs). The kid, Person B, also didn't lose anything that was his either because the mask and amulet were not his. In this case, nothing was stolen as Jagex still has possession/ownership of their mask and amulet.

But until Jagex introduces micro-transactions, those goods belong to Jagex, not the kid. Therefore, the kid had nothing stolen from him, nor was any of that "real monetary value" even his.

Anti-bot software is not the way to go. All anti-cheat programs are very easy to bypass, including Warden, PunkBuster, Hackshield, etc. I know this because I used to write hacks/bypasses for several online games for various online companies. Now, I doubt Jagex's anti-cheat could come up with anything remotely close to that of WoW, Battlefield, and many more. Not all bots use the coordinate system or even object IDs; Mainly those that are not written in Java. It is still quite simple to retrieve/send the information/location without use of these things. If Jagex did drastically change their game to use different methods, it would simply force the bot makers to change theirs... Which I highly doubt would take long (Since, as I said, some bots are already being developed that don't even use that system ;)). And then once they did, we're back at square one. Now, as to why the bots crash after updates, I'm not sure because I haven't used Java in an extremely long time. I don't know why the bot developers don't simply have their bots automatically update after each game update. Hell, once we wrote a hack, if there was a game update it updated itself... But then again different languages = different capabilities I guess. I don't assume it would be too hard. This.

I hope they are tradeable... 'Cause what's the point of getting more of them if you've already got one attached to your whip... Unless the vine attachment degrades/wears out? There'd be a lot of cancelled tasks. :P.

That's actually really neat!

The entire page is filled with each and every way to get points. -.-

Right time. Right place. Randomly videoing, perfect angle, while doing nothing right after log-in... Except seemingly waiting for something to happen. :blink:. Odd.

I fail to see your logic. :blink:. Well what would you call it? He comes in here and shows that he does trust trades. Seems like he's advertising it to me. Idk, I haven't slept in quite a while, maybe I'm just delerious. :-# I just don't see it as advertising. If he said, "And if anyone wants, I'll let you leach a floor for x amount/x floors. PM me." Or if he even made a new thread on the RSOF or here on TIF offering those services, then I would see it as advertisement. Take people posting pictures of their staking wins, for example. They aren't advertising staking, although they are partaking in it.

With the systems and security measures Jagex has in place, to brute force a simple 6 length password with no special characters/spaces would take well over a century. Brute forcing and real "hacking" is out of the question. Either the "hacker" knew enough about you / your recoveries were poorly set that they guessed them, you downloaded a key-logger or visited a phishing site, or shared your password with someone, there is no other means of recovering someone else' account.

I fail to see your logic. :blink:.

Now, while that would be cool... Lower your standards and expectations a little. This is Jagex we're talking about, remember. :P.

It's apparently going to match its steel equivalents. But hey, I guess combining the tinderbox, needle and chisel will save bankspace. Inb4 different animations with longer times. At least it'll be handy to have in the bank and for quests; less STFU need a pickaxe, go bank get back, STFU need a needle, go get needle, RARGGGGH seriously need a tinder? could you not of told me this at the start?!?, go bank, need hatchet, ARRRGGGH STFU QUEST, log off ... this? WHAT! Lol, I need to get out more often... This is the first I'm hearing of this. But then again, I've never played MA. -.-

How'd that happen. =/

Rubies. When the overloads wear off, it brings me to about 555HP. 1 Ruby spec at that HP will hit me for 55ish and bring me down to 500, ready for another overload. ;). And OFC... I've gotta go overkill everything I do on RuneScape, so I bring the whole range set for 1 spec. -.- Might try a cannon, but IDK if it's worth the spots. Heard that it works alright. :).

After about another 50 kills (Egg). Might start a random goal of 100+ black dragon eggs. :). Since DH rips them apart (2 hits them) and I'm getting egg drops and effigies like crazy. Fast kills and a bit of GP when I CBA to pick up the drops.

Felt like "duoing" some TDs again... +3 effigies so far this trip. This game is seriously too damn easy. Had a guy try to crash... Couldn't even pull out his maul before it was back on melee prayer. ;). EDIT: 4 effigies. EDIT 2: 5 effigies.

These bloody things aren't rare at all. About every 50-70 kills according to the eggs / bones banked. -.-

Sold 2 for 15M a pop. =).

None of us thought about it. Were falling off our chairs laughing. Lolol.

I can't believe that really works. Pretty sure they send police to your home. There have been cases of people submitting that report or saying it in-game and having police show up at their door later. They do lift the punishment, but is it worth the hassel? Of course, just use a proxy or your neighbors wireless connection and win. Friend of mine who had extremely high stats went to agility and saw someone who put his stats to shame. He joking around said, "I'm going to go hang myself." We were on Skype with him and heard the police knock on his door and say, "Are you _____?" "Yes." "Do you play a game called RuneScape?" Lol. So, about an hour later, we were at corp and a friend in the same CC and Skype died and again, joking around, said, "Brb, going to off myself," and asked us to report him to see if it was true. The two of us who reported him, as well as he himself, both had them show up at our door. RuneScape is serious business.

IK. You can rest assured that if I ever say anything that can be taken even remotely positive for or toward Jagex, I'm being sarcastic. ;).
