anonymouse_ Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 The most popular free bot client collected and stored every user's login details, resulting in a lot of accounts having their banks cleaned shortly after the free trade update. If someone you know had their banks cleaned recently, they were probably using these bots. The bot site was since taken down by the owners, coincidentally also the owners of one of the biggest rwt sites. So if you've noticed a large drop in the number of bots recently, this is why. Fun stuff :thumbup: :thumbup: Meant as a statement of fact. Someone should turn this into a discussion. I like short sentences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonlordjl Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I wondered if this was the reason. I knew there was an open-source bot that most of the people in the CT dragons and ess mines were using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_trollz_u Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Cheating comes at so many risks, from both jagex and the people that sell stuff to the cheaters. This update resulted in more gold farmers and capital for RWT sites and decreased the amount of actual players botting because they're lazy. Not sure if it's a good thing or just zero sum. Honestly i expected a mass ban from jagex, but this works too....i guess...the justice comes from the larger criminals rather than legitimate action....i can haz irony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magbill Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I like the way the owners of the bot client think. really caught out all the cheaters :thumbsup: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimsoncow42 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Jagex releases Free Trade and the bot client owners clean house while getting rid of all the bots. It's a conspiracy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioIce Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Heh. You've got to hand it to the RWTers for being clever at fleecing the sheep. I'm sure they've sporadically hacked accounts here and there during the trade limit era, but this has got to be their biggest heist yet. Prepare to Die!

iskateandpk4 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 What's funny about this post is that I'm pretty sure you yourself are a botter. Why would you know this information unless you are directly associated with these botting sites. Most people don't know that the most popular botting site is run by the gold selling site. Most people also don't know about the login names and passwords being stored. I've seen screenshots of your accounts and it's pretty obvious you bot judging from your stats and wealth.How do I know this stuff myself? take a guess.

Yeah right, so because i know things about Obama, I am Obama myself. Sounds nice.Maybe he has friends who botted or read it on an other forum, heard a couple of rumours and saw many people compaining about being hacked. And there are a lot more of reasons he could have to know this. http://sign.tip.it/1/2/79/260/essiw.png Retired item crew I would like to be credited as essiw at the website update & corrections forum.

Range_This11 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I have people on my friends list that bot. I'm friends with them irl and I hear plenty of stuff about botting through him. I'm sure I'm not the only one who knows someone who bots. Does this mean I bot? Hell no it doesn't. Maybe he did some independent research on botting, that's not against the rules is it?

Maximusa Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Pretty much only the more silly people use free bots compared to paid for ones. Just asking for trouble..
