jondea0 Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I know alot of people that work with macros on daily bases whether it's placing time is a document, or rerouting payroll accounts. Macros are not evil as jagex proclaims them to be. In fact World of Warcraft gives you the option to design your own macros in-game. no, macros on wow are simple speach binds similar to binds on call of duty. autoers or bots (as they call them on wow) get banned just the same. and what is the use of a macro f yuo just use it casually you dont even enjoy the game anyway discuss a combat reformation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None2None Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I think macroers are horrible people. Their mains can't just enjoy the game and like the rest of us, while being challenged. They have to scam and cheat to make good cash for that blue phat. While all of us would get like 99 rcing for it!! It seems like everywhere i go, i found a new type of autoer :( This is getting out of control, when you see one to test if their an autoer call out their names a couple times, then trade em a couple. Within 3 minutes, if they don't respiond, PLEASE REPORT THEM. Im tired of them scamming, and hogging all the fish, feathers, runes from port sarim stores, etc!!what if they have public chat off... I know Zzzamorak has chat off, and he's level 3, and I know I have chat off, and I'm level 3 (Nivel 3) ... neither one of us are macroers. Your abusing customer support by doing that. Your the one who should be banned.

sprites Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I don't understand why people are getting angry over the macros. Yes they make it difficult to play the game fairly. But please, think of the big picture! If no one buys their gold in exchange for real currency, then the autoers will eventually leave. I don't really know of a way that Jagex could stop these transactions from happening. They can't legally spy on the gold sites. Does anybody have any ideas of how to put these autoers out of business? The only way I see it is to stop all unbalanced trades (drop trades, pk kills, player death, etc..)

randomdude555 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I hate macroers!!! I have to go waaaaaaay outin the middle of nowhere where there is no bank to mine or woodcut just because they take over the mines and yews. they should have a rule...anyone on for more than 4 hours doin the same thing in the same spot should be kicked off first, then banned for a week the second time then banned forever the third!! :wall: :( I like bananas :) peanut butter jelly time!!! peanut butter jelly time!!!heh, welcome to the world of noobscape, its made up of purescape, autoscape, and sadscape, it makes up 60% of all of runescape :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dolphinsfan913 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Their are so many autoers they get so annoying I think about trying them out but then rember I will probably get my main account hacked.

dolphinsfan913 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 When I was a member for a short time I would just throw a gnomeball at the flax picking ones and their system crashes, it is funny to watch. I also ask my player mod friend to come over and say something and they all simutaneously log out, if he comes, and says something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildkid2175 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 i think one way to stop them from macroing wcing is for jaged x to put at requirements on the pic axes and wcing axes (just like they do when u try to equip them).. this would stop lvl 3's from macroing and getting such high lvls and making certian types of pures Only when the last wolf is dead, The last tree is cut down, The last river dammed And the last field is paved over, Will humans realize, that we can't survive on money alone!

Terciopelo Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Ugh. Macroers are the price of popularity =\ As soon as there's a big enough player base of 9 year olds who find it physically impossibile to read the rules of a game, then they start getting their parents to buy them runescape money, and TADA! There's a market for macroers to feed. The price of popularity. Report one dozen, the next dozen gets created. It's vicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashy14 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 If someone looks like a macro report them! dont worry if they have public chat off or anything esle like that. Jagex will check to see if they are a macro or not, as as long as you don't report them about 20 times you wont break any rules ether. Click the image to pat my pet!

Terciopelo Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 When you make a runescape account, you agree to play by Jagex rules. Jagex rules FORBID macroing. If you're going to macro, go do it on a game that allows it. Macroers ruin the game for players who *do* have respect for the contracts they agree to. I noticed that some of the people on this thread don't seem to think macroing is so bad. It is. The game was made to be played a certain way, and the rules forbid macroing so that the game will be played that certain way- if you can't bear to train a skill legitimately, then you're missing the entire point of the game. If that isn't bad enough, if you use a macro, you have broken your contract with Jagex and that makes you just as low as thief or a mugger. If there's no respect for agreements with other people, then there's nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terciopelo Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I just had another thought. If all these bot accounts are so expendable, then there would be no point in making them unless they all give their ill-gotten goods to a few central accounts, who don't macro, don't get reported, and sell all the goods. Isn't there some way that these central accounts could be tracked down and banned? Now *that* would be a kick in the pants for all these bot farmers around here.

RSBDavid Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 well one way i found to solve the problem is try to teleother fally them the will sit there till they are logged out. or throw a gnomeball. if you do anything to interact with them they will eventually log out.

Isn't there some way that these central accounts could be tracked down and banned? Now *that* would be a kick in the pants for all these bot farmers around here. This is a very good point. Lots of people macro with one account while they do whatever they want with another. My (former) friend used to do this: he would have his main computer, and two laptops on his desk. He would use his main computer to play runescape normally, but the two laptops he would log in with 2 other accounts and they would chop yews at lumbridge graveyard. I don't know if he macroed or not, but that's still multiple logging in and cheating. So while he goes and does quests, trains combat, etc. his 2 other accounts are cutting yews the entire time, and he glances at them ever few mins to check for random events and to bank. And then when his cutters have gotten a load of yews (like 10k) he sells them or fletches them. Easy money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joes_So_Cool Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 How many times has this happend to you. Your woodcutting/fishing/skilling and then you see this. Bus001 Bus002 Bus003 Bus004 Ect. I can't even believe how dumb they are and yet they are probilly richer then me and yet no one even feels the need to report anymore because they just keep on comming.

Polnar Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Ok, so I'm struggling along mining in the guild, it's packed and there are 3 level 3s in there with iron squares and lagging between mining. One of them is called ))()()()()7 . (clearly false, apart from the number). So I hop worlds, first thing I see, (same name) ()()()()8 , So someone has hordes of these drones earning him 1000s of coal ores, for free, and with no effort, while I mine something like 200 in an hour. Apart from that, the fact that they've reached level 60 at all is crazy, they really ought to have been banned well before then. It's a plague I tell you.
