Bots making true players look bad


Flamewhisker

Recommended Posts

So yesterday, I get my first 99 (Hunter) after going at it for months (only hunting on weekends). I never used a bot or thought of using one a day in my life! I really hunted chins for hours on end so I could finnially have myself a skill cape.

 

Then I go to the impling mini game and i'm attempting to figure it out (first time lol) and some person logs in and starts to go after implings too. Then when she was running by me she said "bot" I was like wtf and I walk up to her and say that just because i have a 99 doesn't mean i'm a bot! She then goes on to say that everyone does it "and its not like they are illegal"

 

That last part just got me really mad.... They ARE illegal!!

 

And I know from experience that many people use them, I reported a lot of people for botting, but just because alot of people use them doesn't mean its ok!!

 

 

 

*sigh* I just needed to vent this... I was really proud of my hard work towards a 99 and that nub calling me a bot was like a slap in the face for no reason :angry:

I feel your pain, brother. This happens to me all the time. I'm accused of botting my way to 94 Mining almost every day, especially because I'm F2P.

 

Try not to let it get to you. Let the more immature and foolish bot their way to the top. They'll spend the entire time worrying that they'll try to log in one day only to find they've been banned and that 99 they broke the rules to get will be gone.

 

You know you did it the right way. It doesn't matter what others think. Wear your Hunter cape with pride! Congratulations, btw =D> . :thumbsup:

Just tell them "no u" and remember that they're probably just mad at you for doing something they never could.

I call people bots all the time to see if they answer back. I met quite a lot of bots woodcutting ivies. You shouldn't be mad because of what she said, but we can't ignore the fact that macroers were and are always a disease in RS.

people waist time making bots for ivy!? well, I guess they want to go shower or something important like that, but still.

 

Ya know, I think it's the players that make bots look bad. using them to scam people for money, auto type the most useless drivel, and swarm tactic things.

 

I wish there was a game for just bots.

just a note: you cant report somone for botting just because they didnt answer back, many people have public off while training

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

True, not responding doesn't always mean a bot. But if they're always moving in the same, predictable pattern while not responding there's a good chance it might be.

 

I see it all the time in the Mining guild (mining coal to superheat loads of addy or mith gives you lots of time to notice odd behavior) .They move in the same two or three patterns and then run off to the same spot by the ladder and simply stand there for a while before going up. If it only happened once in a while it would be less suspicious, but every time? I'm sure the same kind of thing happens during woodcutting as well.

Just ignore them. You yourself know you got the skillcape with your own hard work. Why bother to listen to some immature and foolish idiot who you don't even know anyway? People who use bots don't get a sense of accomplishment unless they don't have a conscience, whereas those who got their stats with their own effort feel happy when they get a 99.

:lol:

 

I've never been accused of botting, probably because I only play on one world and (whenever I was going for a 99) there would always be familiar faces online. I'd always say hey and have a bit of a chat and all that. I rarely venture off world 112.

 

But it must really suck. Ignore these people, they are jealous because you can be bothered to sit there and hunt legit.

ROFL at that statement! :lol: (Siggied as well. ;) )

 

Anyways, about the bot thing, that guy who was calling you "bot" is just jealous. They can't get 99 hunter, so they want to call you bot.

 

I guess you can say that person has awful clicking skills as well, since they accuse you of being botting just because you click fast. :rolleyes:

Even thought im very bad at leveling (i doesnt have patience), i have never even thought about using a bot.

 

And im proud that my brother got his 99`s himself.

It's sad that people are botting just to get a 99 skillcape.

 

I've seen an increase of bot's in member's its noticeable.

 

They've all started to turn accept aid off as well so I can't teleother them to block their botting.

 

 

You can report people who are moving in predictable patterns even if they are not talking.

 

 

 

 

Also don't take that other person's insults too personally.

I tend to insult other slayer's around me just so I can have the slayer spot & monsters to myself.

It works %99 of the time... they log & hop.

can we still throw gnomeballs to bots so they deposit their axes and picks?

 

I think it might have changed since pkers where doing it to weapons.

 

^ lol I love that idea, I'll try it sometime.

 

I used to get accused of auto-clicking on the way to 99 magic because I could type sentences without skipping a beat on my alching. Lots of people think you have to stop alching to type sentences out. I'd never use a bot, just don't want to risk my 137 cb 2000+ total level account. I used to get offended when people accused me of cheating, but now that it's over, I don't care about it at all. It's a good feeling of achievement to never cheat, never use a bot. It feels good to never have to have somebody else get that fire cape for you or do a quest like Summer's End for you. Everything that I have accomplished it pure and I just don't care what other people have said. :)

Even if a person's public chat is off, they can still see the public chat of J-mods or P-mods. This won't help in all cases, but a few.

You know whats funny? All these complaints about bots now. There were ALOT more over four years ago. But it does need to be taken care more than it has. It has to be hard for Jagex though, but even more annoying for the player who actually spent the time to level it up right.

 

Congratulations on 99 Hunter too :D
