Reivaxlorp Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Hello TipIt! I was looking around the website for any information about Scamming other players or the wide-presence of bots that people always complain about on Runescape. I seem to remember the TipIt website having something on this subject, but I can't seem to find it so I decided to suggest it. I thought a page that includes all sorts of known scams, old and new, would help to protect players who use TipIt from falling prey. The rants section of the TipIt Forum seems to be filled with players who would've benefited from such an information center. Also, a more-opinion based page, but I always hear about botters and third-party programs but I never actually know what to do about them. Sometimes I see a whole mesh of level 3's following the same exact pattern at the same exact time over trees in some areas. Now, I may not be interested in breaking any runescape rules, but if they're reportable offenses under suspicion; I thought a section on identifying and properly information Jagex could help out. I honestly have no idea if you can even report them, but if so, I thought this idea would have some validation to it. Cheers!~Reivax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hey Reivax :)I will look into this, but I believe a scams page is not allowed because, while it helps users know about what to avoid, it also gives ideas to scammers.Regarding information on how to report bots, our rules section includes a picture of the report interface, showing that you can report a suspected botter for "macroing or use of bots." Sending in a report to Jagex will send them a snapshot of events and they will investigate. As obvious as they can be, you can't 100% for sure identify a bot, and Jagex understands this when looking at your reports. Nevertheless, I do think this section could be expanded in our guide and I'll let you know when that's completed! Want to help the Tip.It Crew? Visit the Website Updates & Corrections forum!

Reivaxlorp Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hmmm a shame about the scammers page but I suppose it's the trade-off that has to be taken, and great! I'll have a look at the page, thanks again :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
