path0s Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 The fact that a mod checking out for autoers is so unusual that it merits a thread strikes me as pretty depressing really. Jmods don't really need to check things out for auto'ers, they've got a team of 8473298 pmods (give or take a few million lol) as their eyes and ears. Nowadays if you see a Jmod in game, there's a good chance that they're looking something over to make sure something is working right. I agree that the auto'ing has gotten way outta hand, but there's only so much Jagex can do about it. They *could* start scanning processes and memory space, but then you'd get 897395793457 people saying that jagex was spying on them and privacy blahblah And lets not forget the macro ban uprising of a couple years ago either, when Jagex *did* take matters into their own hands and banned hundreds of people. What happened? Thousands of people took to Varrock square screaming nasty things. And when was the last time you (or anyone else reading this) reported someone for macro'ing? Normal player reports *are* looked at by Jagex. So go ahead and report suspected macro'ers. It definitely doesn't hurt. -P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerocool11 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 P Mods have no power to ban people. They're only used as eyes and ears but Jagex rarely acts on their information because of the possibility that the person made a mistake. Barring irrefutable evidence submitted by a P Mod, the people that you'll see actually patrolling and actually doing something about rule breakers are Jagex Mods. This wholre argument about what Jagex Mods can and can't do is ridiculous. They're JAGEX MODS! THEY WORK FOR JAGEX. Translation: they can do whatever they want. It's nice to see Jagex Mods actually doing something, even if it is only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring irrefutable evidence submitted by a P Mod, the people that you'll see actually patrolling and actually doing something about rule breakers are Jagex Mods. I am a pmod, I do know what I can and cannot do. Jagex most definitely acts upon pmod reports. Depending on the offense, the punishment can range anywhere from a mute to a perm ban. And it's not any kind of a secret that us pmods can't ban people ourselves. This wholre argument about what Jagex Mods can and can't do is ridiculous. They're JAGEX MODS! THEY WORK FOR JAGEX. Translation: they can do whatever they want. It's nice to see Jagex Mods actually doing something, even if it is only one. Of course they can do whatever they want heh.. But they dont spend their time wandering about looking for rule breakers. That's what the pmod army is for. And trust me.. There's enough of us now that it's quite an impressive sized army. What I find "rediculous" is a post from someone who obviously doesn't know how the moderator system works, telling others who do, that something's rediculous. (and not adding anything new to the conversation either I might add) Trust me on this one, not only are pmods Jagex's eyes and ears, but the normal player as well. All reports are taken seriously. Pmod reports have a higher priority is all. -P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artem_art Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 well mods use to pk in rs2 beta i remember that and they can also tele out of wily at any lvl. Mods can also one hit ppl so you need a big group to take care of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as pmod numbers go, I've been a pmod now for 6-8 months I think, and the list has probably tripled since then. I can't really get into numbers though. Mods take a vow of silence and I'd have to swallow the cyanide pill before I talk :D If you've somehow managed to see the list, without being a mod, I'm sure the person who showed it to you said you weren't supposed to see it. I agree there's only so much that pmods can see, but the team as a whole does a hell of a job trying. The stats for pmods are amazingly great and they all should be bought free beer for life for doing the great job they do AND putting up with the insane amount of crap they get at the same time. /rant :) -P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

path0s Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Normal player reports *are* looked at by Jagex. Got proof? , ya i thought not Not any that I can produce anymore, I remember once about a year ago I had a falling out with a friend and he was cursing at me over and over in an out of the way area where no one else was around. I reported him (before I was a pmod) and he did receive a 7 day mute. And as a pmod, I've seen things that I can't talk about that leaves no doubt in my mind that reports are looked at. Believe what you want to about it, but the chances of violating my "vow of silence" for some dumb forum post is -0-. -P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValaraZ Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Jmods should check the bandits every now and then and maybe somehow take out the life rings from afkers there. What i never understood is how they manage to stay in the game so long... must be some macro or paperweight :? Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant: "If I live, I will kill you, If I Die, you are forgiven." Such is the Rule of Honor.

Jagex mods have gold crowns next to their name when they talk, player mods have silver crowns.

If there is 300 then that is a 1/425.14 ratio If there is 800 then that is a 1/159.4275 ratio (this is using the number of people playing atm) Actually that is alot higher ratio than I thought...
