Iamdan Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Ok I have a script, (Didn't write it myself) which reports obvious macroers. It is designed to be left at a place such as yews, then reports level 3's and 4's in default clothing. Of course, there is a tiny chance that it will report a legit skiller in default clothing, but 1 bad report out of 100 or so isn't something to complain about. My question: Is this allowed? Rule 7 is "You must not use other software to gain an unfair advantage in the game." Using this macro is not gaining any advantage, in fact it is helping out everyone associated with the game. (Except that macroers) The only way that TECHNICALLY it comes under rule 7 is "Software that generates input to the RuneScape applet. This includes software that automatically moves the mouse pointer or generates mouse clicks or key presses." Though I think this macro should be allowed an exception. Could somebody send a question to jagex about this? I would myself but f2pers don't get answered. At least I haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teoh Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 HAHAHAHA. thats interesting. but nonetheless, its a macro. maybe try selling it to jagex?? :P < 14533th to 99 cooking, achieved 24/04/07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 You do recognise, using a macro, to get rid of macroers is still a macro, and therefore you're using a macro to get rid of macroers even though your macroing is illegal under the rules of JAGeX. :twisted: I dont need a siggy no moar.

Iamdan Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 The reason why macroing is against the rules, is because it gives players an unfair advantage. My script however does not. Even though it still is macroing, logically there should be an exception, because it doesn't violate the reason WHY macroing is not allowed.

britrockdude Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Veeeery interesting. Mind you, since I'm on F2P at the moment, I report macros just because I'm bored.

I don't know why jagex hasn't thought of something like this. YAY That would make a nice rule. Rule 14: You may not woodcut using a level 3, 4, or 5 charecter in defult clothing. or Rule 14: To woodcut you must be at least combat level 15 and not be wearing defult clothes. Go for it.

SwreeTak Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I like your idea, but I don't JAGeX will accept it :(. It's still a macro... Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britrockdude Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 It's not that it's a macro, it's just a script. Jagex itself could use it, thus why it was mentioned selling the idea.

jedidude77 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 depends on who would look at it at Jagex probably..lol, but i'd bet it would be. However, i myself think it's a good cause. :wink: There's no such thing as "wireless." Just really long extension cords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second of all, you must realize that these macroers had to (macro or legit) get up to 60 woodcutting just to get to cut yews...getting 15 combat wouldn't stop them at all... :roll: ~ Clicky for the blog of No Cb Skils ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uula Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 It's a funny idea, but jagex surely does have much more effective ways to spot the real autoers without banning innocent people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingWenlok Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Dude, you're an idiot #-o Dude, your feeble attempt at an insult is hilarious. Anyway, I'm not entirely sure about this. It's for a good cause, but could potentially upset REAL people out there (as in, getting reported and possibly banned when you're not one). We really need an official response from Jagex about this one, as it is ironic ( :lol: at Bubsa). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unorclan Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 great Idea, but I imagine Jagex is power hungry and dont want anyone messing with their game (like using extra programs with it) or having people suggest using extra programs with it. bunch of snot-headed, money hungry, great game designing, lunatics. ty jagex! : Thanks to the amazing talent of Jopie211 for the sig!Finest Fist of Guthix Strategy Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scn64 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I don't understand how a macro could detect default clothing. Are you sure it works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudwolf Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Go for it imo. If they ban you, make another acc, considering they can't stop conventional macros, i believe its an awesome idea :wink: 'It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.'Aristotle VVVV Blog VVVVhttp://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=742 ... highlight= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaper88888 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Lol... judging by the current amount of macroing going on, I say try to sell JaGEx the script, they obviously can't handle the problem themselves... There is no meaning or truth in life but that which we create for ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
