Traumist Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It's hard to tell if your buying from a macro or not. cause usually they give all the stuff to their main which sells it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordSmiloid Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It's hard to tell, but I've seen macroers selling iron arrows and yews frequently (obviously macros because they say the same things, have automatic answers to questions, etc). Sometimes I'll trade them just to see if I can get them to misread the amount I offer, but so far they've all been too smart for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Once I was buying 20K ess, and this lvl 3 in default cloths and had a name like an autoer, offered me the whole 20K. I turned him down.

ugafan_2009 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 90% of the time you're buying a large number of ess or yews.....you're either buying from an autoer or someone who bought from an autoer. Quit RS, combat 104, total 1651 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwatake Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Never ever... I refuse to sell to them either, in the case of the auto-typers on world 2. They offer horrible deals anyway :twisted: But, the same ones stand there and spam away their prices, I once found the same auto there, from a week before.

Artificial_Doom_Flavor Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I bought a ton of addy arrows from one, once. I really regretted it afterwards. I will never buy anything from them again, especially not runes. Still enjoying RuneScape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shade1234 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I bought 10k raw sharks off one once I knew he was a autoer beacuse he sold me about 2k from 5 accounts :notalk: I wouldnt of done it unless i really needed the sharks :uhh: Thanks Yaff2 for the sig^,^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmyw3000 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I try not to buy/sell to people using auto typers. Once they tried to scam me-offered 20k+ iron instead of coal. I then tried to ge the whole lot for 50gp-it failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n64jive Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 If they are offering a deal, you might as well buy off them. If you don't, someone else will. If you want to get rid of macroers, the solution isn't to stop buying from them in game, but for the people who are buying gp for cash to quit. Of course, some rich kid thinks he needs to, so it'll never stop :S. Personally, I don't see the point, but the people who buy them obviously have so much money that it doesn't even bother them that they are spending large ammounts of money just to get ahead in a video game.

Pkmastachaos Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Huge quantities. Low price. Can't say no :-w Can't go against that logic. I'm not going to lie, a great deal of anything in large quantities are probably from them. Few months back, I bought 20k Dragon Bones from a level 30. Might have been a macro, might have not. Although its probably not the best feeling in the world buying something that you know people are doing illegally, I wouldn't want to waste my time (or someone elses) by doing it the old fashion way and collecting the stuff myself. I don't it against my moral i hate macro they ruined the economy and the game. Heck i don't even sell to people with auto typers. They are dumb and need aprogram to type for them how lazy are those noobs Although I do agree they are lazy. But also somewhat 'smart' in a sense. I don't know about you but typing something over and over who knows how many times until I get what I want isn't all that fun. But I guess thats life, nothing will and ever has been perfect. -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabidChipmunk Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I've never bought from an autoer, mainly because I don't see them selling very often. However, I have refused services to autotypers (Are they still technically autoers?). Archaeology Supporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakka102 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I bought my logs for 99 fletching from a lvl 3, They were selling the most and the cheapest so thats of course the buyer I'm going to choose. Since I paid in gp for them theres nothing that I'm doing wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacrosse_fan Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Us not buying from autoers isn't gonna fix the game. Unless we get millions of people to 'boycott' autoers (which will never happen) it won't impact the runescape economy at all. if i can buy 10k yew logs for 300 gp ea i'll buy it. even it's from an autoer.
