A way to help stop autoers?

[bluebell1]

Some of you have heard the saying "where there's a will theres a way." to most hackers the will is to cheat and they will proboly continue until they are caught. Then they recreat a new program which is harder to detect and trace an use that. they get banned for useing cheats and this cycle reapeats over and over again. it can be pointless to ban them because they will keep coming back but it does help show the masses how they can be punished

...for example, say an auto woodcutter makes a route from draynor bank to the willows and back. after running for about 4 hours and stocked up about 2k-3k logs, the account is banned....

 

 

 

i thinks that a little unfair...

Can anyone put up a list, partial anyway, of some of the things that these bots are able to react to? I was woodchopping the other day at Rimmington Yews and was competing with 4 or 5 level 3-5 players(bots). There was one that didn't run from an evil chicken, although he was taking 0 damage because he was armored. Another one which did run away from a swarm, and a third that was able to retrieve his axehead after it fell off. Although I did suspect them of being bots, I wasn't certain if the ones that did react, especially to the lost axehead, were.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, on to detecting bots, some anyway, there was a post under a different thread that mentioned that the bots will autologout if they see a crown. I was wondering if being able to place a crown in a pre-made text string might cause this as well. Something like a "bot check" emote that would place the crown in a text string that says something like "bot check". It could then automatically make a log of anyone in the immediate vicinity who logged out at that time. Those players could be placed under suspicion, just in case it was done when an actual player was logging out, and would give Jagex the group of names to track instead of the one at a time which is done by normal reporting now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any other suggestions?

I am and sorry to say this but bot are a lot more adavanced then you think. My friend use a macro program that you script your own bot. most bots have random protection and they work well to some degree.

Fair enough point, and very valid, IF you know how to script for yourself(or for your friends self, as the case may be ;)), majority of autoers don't know how, and just use premade scripts. And so, with everyone using the same script, it's obvious they're autoing, if you get me?

 

 

 

I do like your idea harper, but like the other guy said, they'll find a way around that after a while. However, as long as theres a will by jagex to stop them, then i guess its a battle of wills. Even so, i dont know the state its in still, havent been on since xmas time. Seems like people keep reviving my thread a few days before i come back for a visit.
