And from what I've noticed, even Jagex knows the random events aren't really working.

That's why a lot of them are taken out and the frequency of the random events have been reduced.

 

I do not state this as a fact, but this is what I observed.

 

I enjoyed the random events though, too bad some of them have been taken out.

Righhhht, and you continue the mudslinging by using intelligence in a derogatory manner. The only reason I brought up amberpyres posts is that she posted as if what she said were fact, then when called out on it left a comment that steamed my beans. Plus we're only human, we all have days where we may be more innately frustrated then other days. When I posted before I had one of them days, just slight annoyance throughout the day.

 

Also, by your signature I'm going to guess you're just a tiny bit jaded. Just a little. :razz:

 

Small correction of a not major error. :-D

 

And now I get as on topic as I possibly can, though there's not much more to say.

 

But, anyways, another random would just be way too much. An event like this would likely cause lots of shouting on the Rants section of the RSOF, because apparently it would come up every hour, which would get in the way of things like Large dungeon raids and big bosses like the ones in the GWD.

Maybe a new random event were u get teleported to place similar to where u where skilling and there is also the resource that u where skilling on but is a bot trap because the resource is actually a monster that will attack u wen u try to gather resources from it

 

And jagex can keep records of how many times u die there on a day or week and if u die a set amount of times then thy ban your account.

I don't think randoms is the way to go.

Cause Sirlone the thing you just suggested is just like the old randoms which you had during most skills.

Fishing had the troll, woodcutting had the tree spirirt, mining had the exploding ores...

 

And now a days scripters find out how to fix this within days.

I've been going on several posts in RSOF over the past few months hoping that Jagex will come to their senses about this.

 

So now it stands that they no longer care.

 

I supported probably around a hundred topics on botting. Giving my piece of advice along with everyone elses.

 

There is no macro detection system, only us.

Captcha does NOT work. It just doesn't.

 

Anyone who played RSC can tell you that.

So they ban you for not being able to kill something before it kills you?

 

That would just cause lots of people to carry food around all scared-like.

I read the title of this topic and had to comment on its oxymoronic nature. Stopping botting? Not anytime soon.

KK.1. Have you ever played cod4 pc? there are bots, it can never be too complex because bot makers will just overcome it (an actually cod bots on pc arent that hard to make)

2.Completely agree with you sy, everyone says that bots make jagex money they do in a sense but they make a loss as well which is bigger than the profit.

3. They removed free trade and wildy cos of bots.... not causes of scamming

 

 

Judging by your grammar and horrible ideas, I would like to think that you're pulling [cabbage] out of your ass. Why would someone make a bot for COD. It's not a game where you have to spend months/years to get your character to the "fun" levels....

 

Take combat for instance. The game is most fun at 99 in combat skills (pking/staking aside). Combat average xp is roughly 50k-80k/hr. Even with botting, that is still roughly 220 hours. Assuming the bot only bots for 10 hours a day, that is 22 days, just to get to 99 strength. That's almost a month, AUTOMATED. Add the other combat stats, that means that before I can pro boss hunt, I need to spend 3 months on the game, if I was botting. I'm sorry, but I have probably at most, 10 hours a week to spend on runescape. Imagine how long it would take me to get 99....

 

I'm not a fan of people making games that ruin lives. Runescape does this. You could spend most of your time doing something more productive. That's why I believe xbox has a bigger market. MMORPG's players kind of received the stereotypical label as "anti-social", "nerdy", "no-life", etc. I can play COD for 1-2 hours, be pleased, and then go off and do something else, whether it be homework/studying, working, spending time with real life friends. If it's a weekend, going out to the bars with my friends, working on projects that actually provide life experiences/knowledge in something I eventually want to do.

 

Take the botting community for example. The kids who develop the scripts/bots are gaining knowledge in programming, something they will be able to apply later on in life if they so choose. And they also get to play the game as well. Yeah, it sucks if you spend the time to get the levels, and they were able to get to it by simply running a program, but can you blame them for not wanting to click the same thing over and over again in order to get a level.

 

I'm going to end this rant here, as I know I will receive a lot of negative feedback from this topic, but after all the experiences I went through, I don't really understand why I ever spent so much of my life on this game.

 

 

Completely off topic bit that may provide some insight: I'm 21 year old college student studying computer science/engineering. I play quite a bit of runescape from the time I was in jr high/high school. I gave up the game a lot around my senior year and completely when I went off to college. After some recent events in my life, I started playing the game a little in order to help get my mind off some things. Honestly, it help tremendously. I've never botted, but I often wonder why I don't use my skills that I have learned in Java/C programming to automate the processes that I dislike about this game. I have thought about it a lot recently, and maybe eventually I will, but at this point I'd rather just play the game when I have the time.

 

TLDR: move along....

Thank You for putting it so bluntly to the ignorant.
