Don't worry. If you're not macrioing, you won't get in trouble. They can report all they want, Jagex has a very nice system of finding out if someone is a true macroer or not.

if i had 1k for every time someone accused me of being a report-happy freak...

 

i'd be a bit wealthier

 

 

 

all joking aside, it takes more than reporting to become a moderator, and a true report-happy freak will get the opposite, or, in the unlikely event of their goal being achieved, end up being a corrupted mod.

As long as your legit, you have nothing to worry about.

whenever ppl are crowded me and say "reported" i laugh. now im not talking about my main but my other account aresgodowar. he cuts willows and is a lev 4 or 5 by accident. as soon as they say that i laugh and say go to hell. its fun because they cant report you again..

ya that happend to me

 

i was in fite pits tho and somenoe called me a macroer for tokul cus i didnt talk cus i was playing 2 games at once

Runescapes not reporting mad, just the noobs. Noobs are about 70% of runescapes population though. In my eyes If you are a noob your always a noob. not all low levels are noobs but most of 'em, thats why everyone tries to avoid them.

The problem with all this reporting is that it distracts Jagex from the real task of combatting bots and real world trading. My advice is before you report anyone for being a bot please be as sure as possible that they are. You must take into consideration that some people just do NOT want to be sociable or dress up in fancy clothes, or that there are people who only raise one skill. Before you report a suspected bot watch them for a while as the behaviour of a bot is ALWAYS repetative.

 

 

 

I believe that there was a good guide written on this forum with tips on how to spot a bot. I suugest anyone on this forum who is "report happy" to read this before making any more reports. IMO a guide like this should be in the Jagex Knowledge Base - it may prevent the multitude of false reports that Jagex must get every day.

I have gone reporting crazy -- I don't see what's wrong with me trying to get rid of the macroers.

 

But I don't go "Reported" "Reported" after every report

I report every once and a while only when theres something really to report, like foul language, macro, account sharing/selling.

those are just noobs that are probably gona get banned for overuse of the report thingy... theres no way you can tell wether or not someone is autoing. they could just be people like you, turning their chat off... i think someone telling you to talk or they will report you should be a reportable offence.

I only report the person if I know they are macroing, and if they are in my spot. ;)

 

 

 

But, I don't go reporting crazy, only if I get scammed. Then, nothing can stop me from reporting them.

people need to learn that mods do more than report...

 

and that mods aren't paid

 

and that mods can't insta-ban macros

 

and that mods are normal, non-jagex worker players

 

 

 

sorry about my little rant, but report-happy people often beleive the opposite of most of that garbage up there

It's a good thing they're reporting...but reporting crazily is just annoying. I was on a slayer assignment the other day for dags. I of course got a bit sidetracked with the music blasting away and trying to look at some website. I never knew you could program macros to move all of the place and kill monster and know which drops to pick and etc. This guy wouldn't stop yelling at me for being a macro since I wouldn't talk to him since he's too annoying. He thought I was auto typing shut up, go away, I'm busy, I'm not autoing, and other ways of saying it. This guy was just a plain idiot. I ended up banking because of all the drops and when I came back...I saw him with a few hp and next second, a pile of stuff.

 

Heh, in the end, I made a nice 5M and no, I didn't return the stuff. He was just too nooby and stupid...but both words mean the same.

 

 

 

Another one is a friend that is perm muted which he kinda deserves, but he still has the motivation to keep playing. Anyways, one day I'm visiting him at yew trees since he has a goal of 99. I'm talking to him on msn and playing those free games you get. We're having a jolly good time and I'm just following him while I alch. Cut the RuneScape window in half to only show the magic tab and such and alch away while talking on msn. He warns me of random events and such since he uses the tab browsing. A stranger comes up to us and spams "wc lvlzzz?!?!?" My friend politely shook his head using the emote, but the guy was like all "???!?!??!!??! Wat?!!?" I decided to tell him that he's muted and that his wc level is --

 

I guess the guy takes drugs or something, but he was calling me his macro buddy even after I thoroughly explains to him that we aren't. I didn't know some people could be this hard headed, geez. We had enough of his bull and decided on some people and quiet with our chats off. He followed us probably spamming ??? and y aren't ya talk n. He did that for a good 30 mins before he left o.O

WBMs deserve whatever the runelaw can throw at them

I double check everything before i report someone.

A friend of mine was recently perm banned thanks to an over zealous reporter. Granted the guy did have a few bad marks to his name already, but this one report ended up in my friend losing his lvl 124 account. Basically, his friend lent him a few items and for a joke said 'omfg scammer' as he wasn't recieving money/items in return. Some litle kid decided to report, and of course to jagex when they check the report screen it looks like a scam. I guess sometimes you really have to watch what you say.

I find it very useful that everybody reports nearly everyone out there, and I have full trust in JaGeX that they will seperate the autoers of the real players.

Since the most common perception of attaining pmod status is through mass successful reporting, people who want that power go out of their ways to spend a ridiculous amount of time just reporting and reporting any person they think might possibly be doing something against the rules - they then do enough of that and figure they'll have to eventually be considered for pmod status.

i cannot walk for more than 30 seconds without hearing, " reported noob" or "your macroing reported".

 

That speaks more about the people that play the game and cheat, than those that play the game and are honest about it.

there is an easy solution.

 

 

 

sell all your stuff and buy rares and start playing world of warcraft.

 

 

 

that is what i am doing :lol:

 

 

 

i still got a bunch of barrows stuff to sell give away.
