Normalize Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I think it's because these high level bots are guarranteed to cotinue paying for membership that Jagex doesnt take action against them. In all honesty, it makes a great deal of sesnse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_am_Geed Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 What really pisses me off is their lazy stance towards bots. A had an irl friend who quit just yesterday because he got that [cabbage] "you have a macroing minor so we halve your exp herp derp" He never botted, never broke rules, nothing. The balance of runescape stands on the edge of a knife. Stray but a little and it will fall. what makes it harder is Jagex insists on standing on one foot.

K4ylan Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 bots wear the ugliest ass outfits, learn to wear drag boots and glorys not accuracy ammys foolsGranite body/drag skirt gives you all away Skirt because it's cheaper than legs and gives good defence, granite because they haven't done Dragon Slayer, and if a bot is wearing an accuracy ammy then it's just a dumb or unknowing bot owner. Doesn't matter if they're given away anyway, people don't report and Jagex doesn't perma. Also granite plate because it is stronger than Rune ~~~The Harpy List~~~Harpy Facts~~~It's Super Effective~~~The Beginning~~~Harpy Therapy Center~~~Alg~~~Jedi Harpy~~~Rohirrim~~~Attenuation~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normalize Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Bots, imo, lower prices so I dont really care about them. Ill report them if they get in my way, but otherwise more power to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnljotr Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I just came back a week and a half ago, I was reporting bots at first, and I've given up now... Aside from bots at my slayer task. I still report them in hopes of it maybe doing some good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runetipguy Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I feel this is relevant to this thread What if you can afk a lot [30mins +] and still train a skill. Would that be considered botting? If so, then a lot of legitamate players who just afk occassionally will be banned. If not, it would be hard to tell if someone is botting or not [using a program]. This is why I think Jagex doesn't take more severe actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiFi Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Bots are an odd topic. Without them skills such as Prayer, Construction, Herblore (pretty much all skills that require you to buy and use items), would be insanely expansive. But on the other hand, it makes skills like Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining (skills that produce items for before mention skills) less profitable. In my opinion I prefer them, but when they mess with things like my Slayer task, I get mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I think Jagex doesn't take more severe actions. You can't AFK anything 30+ minutes except maybe Bandits. It's not botting. Jagex doesn't take severe action (permabans) because they don't want to lose a paying player. This has been established...

Merre Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Took me weeks and weeks to finally reach L85 dungeoneering. To me it's the most terrible skill ever and I solo'ed all of it. I know it's not the best way to gain XP but since 90% of RS population are botters and selfish kids I prefer playing solo.Anyways, I reached 85 dung and geared up with my precious rapier, cannon etc to go own some Frost Dragons. I enter there and it's just PACKED with cannons and dragon armor nubs...I was like 'WTF' and started spam talking to some of them. NOBODY talked back. I mean over 15-20 people I was chasing and asking questions and they just kept doing the same stuff over and over again... I'm starting to hate this game and the mentality of Jagex who prefer hard cash over the joy of their loyal gamers. I'm seriously considering to quit this game till the day Jagex comes up with a solution.I read they were gonna take legal actions against all companies selling bots/scripts etc AND against all bot users... ROFLOL, so they can't detect botters in-game and now they're gonna stop them in real life???? :thumbdown: GF JAGEX 2016 goals: all skills +30mil xp - Completed this goal 11th December 2016 2017 goals: get at least 3 more master capes (start xp: invention done@21st Jan, mining done@2nd April & ranged 76/104mil done@June 20th) & all skills +40mil xp (done 24th August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merre Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Well isn't that just sad? This isn't the service I've been paying for the past years. Ever since they brought back free trade the game has gone downhill so fast it makes me dizzy...If they only care about profit there won't be many legit highlevel players left willing to swallow these nonsense day after day. I spend at least 2-3 hours a day on RS.I considered playing this game being a hobby, but when I look at my friendslist and the old friends who've quit the game or who took a break I'm starting to think I should do the same. Just park my account and check back in a year from now what's changed... Atm it's simply impossible to decently train a skill: I wanted to get hunter up to L93 but there were 3 (!) bots boxtrapping red chins... Couldn't even remember what my boxes were since they literally packed all the spots...Slayering Nechs? 4-5 highlevel bots farming them at tower. Nobody talked, nor complained when I halfkilled them and ran to another. *sighs*I don't think it's normal the legit players have to keep hopping worlds to find a less botted spot so we can finally get a fraction of the XP they grind day after day after day... 2016 goals: all skills +30mil xp - Completed this goal 11th December 2016 2017 goals: get at least 3 more master capes (start xp: invention done@21st Jan, mining done@2nd April & ranged 76/104mil done@June 20th) & all skills +40mil xp (done 24th August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merre Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 You loved bots? How can someone love bots? They ruin the game for every skiller who wants to do stuff their own way. I personally never buy XP. I enjoy my skillcapes most by earning every single XP of them. 2016 goals: all skills +30mil xp - Completed this goal 11th December 2016 2017 goals: get at least 3 more master capes (start xp: invention done@21st Jan, mining done@2nd April & ranged 76/104mil done@June 20th) & all skills +40mil xp (done 24th August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonitas Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Are you nuts? That is a bad thing. The bots are hurting the economy. You are at the botters level if you think it's a good thing to give yourself unfair benefit.

There is no designated "bot clan." Bots are used for individual benefit and by gold farmers.
