The death of a giant :(

This is where the chat timer comes into place... and it logs out every 6 hrs so goodbye overnight botting. either way its a pretty big burden. Chat tiemr would be undone by a bot that ahs an autotyper built in. Just have it say "I love woodcutting" every half an hour. And admittedly it could stifle botting to a degree, but botters would adapt as well. (Aka swing by to log their bots back in ever morning and evening.) It would slow them down though, which is good. It wouldn't stop it outright at all, though. Just make it a bit less convenient. What pmod or jmod is going to not see i love woodcutting every half an hour? Im here to making botting as inconvenient as possible :D But the flaw in making botting inconvenient is that by default you also inconvenience legit players. I don't believe there is a plan to stop botting that wouldn't inconvenient legit players.. bots are made to be exactly like other players (action wise) How can you stop botting without inconveniencing other players its impossible because bots are human like.

Have you forgot that the captcha and or question is new EVERYDAY? and is random everytime you log in? If you find me a bot that can do all that enlighten me. PLUS It could be a poll? Or w.e jagex comes up with

Do you like the chat timer idea? I figure it would burden botters enough to where your almost better of legiting it.

That could actually be a perfect solution. Jagex would enjoy being able to ask really stupid questioons (just imagine the puns), and if it was updated daily, bots wouldn't be able to keep up. Questions would have to be obvious of course, though. Like "I like cabbages. What do I like?" And have a disclaimer saying their obvious so idiots don't get themselves banned. As far as I know, bots can't answer varying questions that are answered via a typed answer, right? (It would have to be specified to never use caps, and to always use numerals in place of the words for numbers, though.) :thumbup: Great idea. If only Jagex could see this. They will, but not until I perfect it so they have no excuse not to implement it. Then I'm spamming every mod's cc until they look at it. Heres the link to the thread! http://forum.tip.it/topic/300175-jagex-guide-to-ruining-botting/ Lets single handedly save runescape? Im creating a thread as we speak.

Well... I was pondering a post that a previous user posted about how to stop botting.. When this came to mind... Why not everytime you log in jagex has a question of the day. It would be random everytime you log in. The bots wouldnt be able to cope to all these questions (as they are being created each day.) Quite the simplex idea. but it could work. Jagex would be able to use the question for.. Safety tips, polls, funny questions, puns, current updates? This would benefit jagex in everyway (if their goal to elimnate botting is truely existant) (Heres my Very very very bad version of what it would look like) Remember. It Could be anything jagex comes up with, Polls, questions, comment box Option 2 Sure, A human could log in and then setup the bot. But the person would not be able to bot for more than six hrs at a time. (Due to the auto-logout) I also say they implement a time on the chat box.. if you dont type something within (1hr) than a question is issued? Any ideas?

Yes i agree.. OF COURSE the programmers could try and cope with all the questions and include them bot none of them are going to be reoccurring. Hopefully i get some props for this idea. XD How about random questions that are writtien by jagex staff each day? That could actually be a perfect solution.

Either they can propose this idea for public and moderators or their idea for public and moderators. I too agree having two different systems for Moderator and public doesnt make much sense, But of course moderator reports should be higher priority.

Im talking the general public here.

Now.. The idea orginally came from Dire1 (im new here so try not to own me to hard) Okay, So the orginal idea was to have when you right click a drop down menu would appear with the persons name and a large report button would be to the left. This would make the menu very large. Heres my idea on how it could be smaller for better reporting. Very simple as you can see. Instead of a 60 sec delay for each report. I propose a 15 second delay. Therefore any attempt at spamming the report button would be in 15 sec intervals. Any ideas?
