October 15, 201114 yr So apparently, several worlds are being completely muted. W117 and W148 suffered from it, leaving only Quick Chat working.Hence resolved, but still.

October 15, 201114 yr Doubt this is true unless i see some proof, prob just the hordes of auto-typers used to spam at dg being hit by the new auto-mutings.

October 15, 201114 yr Doubt this is true unless i see some proof, prob just the hordes of auto-typers used to spam at dg being hit by the new auto-mutings. There are a few reports of this on the RSOF, so I think it's safe to say it's true: [qfc]14-15-745-63275144[/qfc] I really wouldn't be surprised if this was related to stopping ad-bots. ~ W ~
October 15, 201114 yr Perhaps they were testing something? There are certain variables that can't be taken into account when you do it on a private server (or whatever Jagex use to test their content before release). I wouldn't be surprised if it was something related to adbots tbh.

There are many reports of many ludicrous things on RSOF, I dont put much faith in it. Examples that spring to mind was the red fire ghost wandering around near ardy that was 1 hitting ppl that had like LOADS of rsof thread and was fake. Or the requests for item returns after Brassica Prime "killed" players.

October 15, 201114 yr A few Scryers were affected by this. It went through a few worlds and only lasted for a short period of time and corrected itself. Players affected could only see and use quick chat. Sounds like it was a glitch to me. Players under 13 get restricted to only quick chat don't they? Perhaps it was a variable from around there affecting people on specific worlds. off-topic - Welcome back TiF!
October 15, 201114 yr It's Jagex's final solution for dealing with ad bots? :lol: Pretty messy way to deal with them. I would love to see what would've happened if that happened in World 2.
October 15, 201114 yr I can confirm that it happened as well. Was talking to a friend who was on world 54 earlier. World hopped to him and when I got there only quickchat could be used.It didn't give any warning of the world being only quickchat when I logged in either. Thought I had been muted. Changed worlds and I could talk again. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

October 16, 201114 yr It seems to be a problem with the system that is keeping the ad-bots in check. From the lists of worlds I have seen affected, and from what I know about the conditions on certain worlds, it seems to only be an issue on worlds with extra large populations of auto typers. I imagine they will get the kinks in their automated system sorted out fairly soon, and in the mean time, the ad bots are getting so creative its funny. At the current rate, they'll be out of advertising names (where they use their name as the web advert) inside a week easy, and I imagine a solution to the bots that spread the message over multiple accounts at once are already in the works. For the multibot spam though, they are doing it in such hi traffic areas that their messages are fragmented beyond recognition anyway. It would be nice if Jagex would officially recognize the problems the system is having though, and maybe even provide an estimate on when certain worlds will stop randomly going into qc only mode.

October 16, 201114 yr Apparently it due to someone abusing a glitch. Believe it or not http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZLsR_BBd93E#!
October 16, 201114 yr Looks like some guy abused a bug with the new spam filter by using Quick Chat to trick the filter into muting everyone else. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZLsR_BBd93E# ^ Link posted here before, but for reference RIP RU_Insane.
