Bots and mmos go together like bread and butter.

 

Care to explain that in simpler terms?

WoW's anti-botting stuff is really good from what I hear, but there are still bots I'm sure.

Ya + I was in a pvp realm they prob stay away from those. Now RS needs to be like WoW before I tell all my friends to play WoW with me so they lose money.

You're doing everything wrong then.

NO MMO has >half the players bots and bots at the highest levels of game content. Look for it. Nothing out there is as bot infested as RS now.

Just because there are bots doesn't make it not a Massively (It is massive) Multiplayer (there are 2 or more players) Online (It is played on the internet) Role Playing Game (You play your character).

So, you're pissed off that bots are effectively doing the jobs nobody wants to do (i.e. woodcutting, fishing, mining, herb gathering)

 

Honestly, all these damn posts about how everyone is a communist bot are much worse than the actual problem if you think about it.

... BAN THEM JAGEX

 

They did. Thousands of them at once in their biggest mass banning ever. As I recall, players were whining then about being unfairly banned.

Youth ages, immaturity is outgrown; ignorance can be educated, and drunkenness sobered, but stupid is forever.

Private chat on, give me a hyt!

It should not be necessary to say it, but today it is: anyone who wants to be understood has to make damn sure that he has made himself intelligible.

Don't you think they're trying? Please try not to reiterate what's been said countless times before - by saturating the forum in bot rants, many of us are less inclined to bother with them. I only clicked on this because of the attractive title. Foolishly, I did not anticipate it would be a rant like most others.

People were probably writing bots for MUDs before you were born...bots arnt going anywhere anytime soon.

Im on a pvp realm that has been around since Vanilla (pre-bc) days. I see mining bots every and then and either steal rocks if they are my faction or kill them on opposing. It isnt that hard for them to script fly back to body on death so to stop any botters it takes intervention from blizzard.

 

Blizzard controlled the problem from the start *and didnt make a game that revolves around mindless grinding which is why it never became a problem in the first place (in runescape you have statistics saying 30% of Jagex's revinue comes from botters).

 

This pretty much, but one problem with that: most bots use stolen credit cards to pay for membership. This results in a forced refund that Jagex has to pay as well as a hefty fine.

 

In addition to that. since RuneScape is browser based, they aren't able to employ many of the anti-bot mechanisms Blizzard is able to use. (eg. this)

If it stand still, its a bot. If it moves, its a well programmed bot.

Go for it, I'm sure Jagex won't mind. It's an MMO whether or not you think it is, and your opinion won't change that. Botters won't just go away at the drop of a hat.

It's not like herb is any cheaper than it was before, i don't understand why people think lvling herblore is any cheaper seeing as the potions(which determines how much money you save) crashed just as much as the herb (which is how much it costs).
