Has anyone been to the hotspots for bots? The players online seem to be pretty high still compared to pre-nuke.

So are the bots actually gone? XD because it would be hilarious if they weren't. At any rate, I suspect they will be back.

The bots always disappear after an update. Give it 12 hours then have a look at some hotspots.

How do you change the clicker? I want the standard one that is small and always the same. Now I have this big bulky gold one that changes into an icon/logo anytime I hover over something. Ugh I better be able to change it. Or else I'm RAGE QUITTING! Sarcastic about last sentence.

YUM!

Why don't I get this water? Also I don't get that nice new login thing... Seems they forgot to update the mac client?

 

Edit:

Got a reply from a jmod, it is only able for DirectX, so I just have to wait.

Jagex never said there would be 1.5M bans going along with this. They said that they had recently banned 1.5M bots. All this does is prevent bots from continuing to bot. Doesn't ban them.

Then every bot they've "banned" must've been an F2P noob account. That is, if they actually banned any accounts for botting.

 

What about the high level botted accounts in P2P? They're not going to ban them? :rolleyes:

Am i the only one that thinks having "report" as a right click option is ruining the spirit of the game? since when is reporting as important as walking trading and following in any game? hell they gave an option to hide "req assist" but not report...

It's in your options tab. I was scared when I logged on and didn't have it, thinking I was de-modded. But alas I just had to turn it on.

Go to the options setting (Where aid on/off is, etc.) there's a box you can tick/untick to enable/disable it.

LOL. So apparently out of those 200k players online before the update, 120k were bots, as there are about 80k left online.

*Fingers crossed that bots are kept out of the game*

I think it would be better if they perm-ban players who try to use their old bots. But even if bot-makers can get their bots to work, hopefully Jagex will be able to detect those using it and perm-ban them!

Has anyone checked to see what they're saying on the botting sites?

It's easy to detect bots which repeat the exact same input for hours straight, but it's near impossible to detect bots which behave similarly to a human player unless they glitch up.

 

 

@ Sly_Wizard

 

They seem pretty confident on the powerbot forum thread, I haven't checked any others though.

Judging from what I see in the high-scores (I kept a list of accounts that I suspected were bots) -- they have not yet banned any P2P accounts ...
