New laptop, will it get me banned?

[maximus]

Well i recently came into some money and went out and got a new sexy laptop. \

 

 

 

For convenience i ordered the special "Touch-Screen" addon which allows me to control the mouse by simply touching the screen. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

I've gotten it all set up and played a few games on it. But i've played runescape on it and being able to simple touch rocks or trees makes it alot easier when im multitasking. But i was wondering recently because touching the screen simply simulates a click and not the mouse movement. I believe random clicks are whta Jagex detect when looking for botters.

 

 

 

And me touching trees and such without moveing the mouse to it might make it seem like im botting. :uhh:

 

 

 

I'm somewhat scared now and dont want to get banned. :ohnoes:

 

 

 

Does anyone else use touchscreen or ever been banned for using it?

 

 

 

Thanks

You shouldnt get banned unless you are wcing for 3 hours straight doing the exact movements each time you bank

[Natasa777]

i don't think you can get banned for that. jagex probably can't register mouse movement, only clicks, but i'm not sure about that.

[maximus]

Well the game client can tell when you hover a tree or something.

 

 

 

But yeah i dont wc for more than an hour or two max and i dont get repedative.

 

 

 

thanks for the advice, more woul dbe helpful. maybe experiences?

You should be fine. Your allowed to change the setting on your computer so that you can use the number pad instead of the mouse, why shouldn't you be able to do this?

[toadalmighty]

unless you dont talk and do the same thing for hours on end and have split second reactions you should be safe

[Celestrana]

If this is a real concern for you, email Jagex's Customer support and get a response straight from the horse's mouth. They'll most likely tell you that they can't reveal how they detect macroers/bots but at least you'll get peace of mind.

[maximus]

They pretty much told me that i'll most likely not get banned. But that their detection system is automated... so if im to paranoid i should just use either the mousepad or an optional USB mouse -_-'

you should be safe, its not a 3rd party thing-a-ma-jig. so its 100% legal seeing its part of the computer or in your case, laptop.

[Master_Smither]

You should be 100% fine sicne it's not 3rd Party software.

 

 

 

But if you skill for hours on end then you might get reported for macroing.

 

 

 

But as long as you talk you should be fine.

 

 

 

I smith for 14hs a day or so and I always talk so nobody thinks I macro

14hours a day ?? :shock:

[Shadow MC]

Isn't the way Jagex knows if your cheating in this way by detecting the program that does it for you?

[Sam]

Touch screen seems ok, but most other mouse programs get you banned

+1 - 14 hours!, you should have 99 by now

ya maybe talk a bit every 10+ minutes, just dont repeat ur exact movements

 

 

 

and if some nubface starts spamming u asking if ur a macroer, make sure u reply so they dont report u, dont ignore ppl or theyll just assume ur not there

[Seanthorn]

Best thing to do is e-mail them... acctually no that isnt. Cause they always send you the same e-mail back.

 

 

 

"We're very busy in the JaGex offices, and we couldn't come to the attention of your e-mail.. blah blah"

 

 

 

Erm... As your still playing the game, and technically, your still clicking, it shouldn't be any harm. Anyway, if they do ban you, you have a good reason to appeal against it.

and i've been touch screening for 2 days now. im fine =] thanks
