Arrrgh, Macroers!

[sporkonafork]

do you think it would be too harsh to completly ban every chinese internet domain from runescape? im sure theres some honest chinese players, but from china?

[Dragonlordjl]

Yes, that would be completely unreasonable. It'd be the same as Congress passing a law calling for a mass deportation from the US of anyone who is of Arabian descent, as they could potentially be terrorists.

They've gone to arrow shops and feather shops. Also, rune shop (the old problem) :(

 

 

 

I think Jagex should ban someone having a lot of cash suddenly (as auto-buyers need some "capital" to initiate their dirty job) They usually drop trade to get the money needed from the mains

 

 

 

The auto-buyer always buy feathers when the amount in stock>=950 as they cost 2gpea at that moment

 

 

 

They also buy arrows when stock >=1450 so that they cost 24ea

 

 

 

There is ONE or more of them in each f2p world

 

 

 

I don't mind paying a little bit more for feathers (in fact, they're cheap) but I DO mind seeing the arrow prices shooting to new heights!

 

 

 

A months ago, my brother bought 1k arrow with ease (at price of 18ea) at Rimmington arrow shop. Now, I've got 22k with me, but buying 500 steel arrow seems to be hard (I can't afford more than 40ea for them)

 

 

 

Also, I've observed that they DO switch off private chat.

 

 

 

Sometimes, buying mithril arrow is more economical when compared to the steel counterparts

 

 

 

The world is crazy!!!!! :evil:

 

 

 

I've tested it, grabbed myself 22k

 

 

 

and I bought 170 mith arrow & 460 steel arrow (lol)

 

 

 

Average price is close to 40ea

[blosssom2581]

Jagex should implant randoms to opening up trade screen for long time (say, 5 mins)

 

 

 

There's no point to open up that screen for that long, as I could see

 

 

 

Also, investigate those who don't have the level to use a item, say, stocking piles of steel arrows/death runes, while impossible to use them within their level (they are all level 3 [cabbage])

 

 

 

How about setting up voluntary teams to go to the shops, say fishing shops in every world, empty some of the stocks of feathers and then sell it for 10gp for a very small profit OR use them to fly fish and sell the fishes for a LARGE profit. This sounds fun and gonna mess up those macroers as they can't earn even a penny if the price for those items were extremely high (greater than their desired selling price 6ea)

[oman558]

i dont like them lol

[Firebaby]

Those autoers are is really giving me a pain in the butt. Imagine how hard we tried to get from level 1 woodcutting to 60+ woodcutting and even I was very happy that I could cut yews and make big money, but one problem. Autoers. They are like swarms of the chopping non-stop and the trees come dow faster than anyone can imagine even with a steel axe. I am totally fed up with this and I've even gotten so angry as to go on a reposting spree, but it doesn't help. Same goes for fishing. The fishing spots are gone in a snap. It has totally gotten out of control. This is not tolerable and something has got to be done or woodcutting, fishing, and other skills will turn into a bot invested skill!!!

[Infernalz]

well i just reported ANOTHER 16 macroers... in less that a half an hour... i mean i hate macroers, wit ha blind furry i might add, and i report all the ones i come accross. ive gone 'bot hunting' a number of times. i mean i dont mind reporting them, but its tiring. i have to wait 60 seconds to report the next bot...

 

 

 

if anyone else has some spare time why not go bot hunting!?

 

 

 

some popular spots ive come accross are:

 

 

 

south fally yew trees.

 

magic shop in port sarim.

 

magic shop near PC.

 

 

 

ya... its a sport now...

[Infernalz]

oh excuese me, just found 3 more... 19 now...

[Methud]

click my siggy for a guide on killing yew bots!!!

[mario_sunny]

*points to sig*

[robbyfighter]

just keep reporting them or kill them :)

[Cammo]

We should make a thread to orginise bot hunts, say we go through worlds 105 to 109 reporting macros at yew trees and stuff

[GlowinRedM]

Macroers you suck

 

You make RuneScape no more fun

 

I hate you, Macroers

 

 

 

^^I am a poet, horray haikus!

[sporkonafork]

i think runescape is tolerating member macros since theyve probably lost alot of customers due to other competitor games, we all the name the one that starts with W? jagex is trying to cover their losses by allowing macro members to roam about and ruin the runescape economy

[sporkonafork]

what will it take for jagex to fix this problem? boycot this game for 1 scheduled day? or all of us flood the runescape rant forum about this?

[Flodder450]

its offical all the yew trees are autoer free by falador=all yews autoer-free, port sarim=autoerfree, lumby yew trees=free of autoers, \ \ \ GOOD JOB JAGEX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mico]

Allright!

[robbyfighter]

realy? I cant believe it :D

[Flodder450]

they are back aaaaaaaaaaaargh for 30.000 autoers you ban comes around 50.000 back :shock:

[sacretflame]

If only Jagex staff got off their behinds, and stop having their biscuits and tea this would not be happening. I see a connection with Jagex and the government of most countries.. they both host parties on their success and shovel their problems into a potatoe sack. seriously, some way or another these owners of these macros are finding a way to get under the system or Jagex is not really doing anything. For the hope of runescape, Jagex has to stop putting out these so called *updates* that players want excessively, since they are p2p. well, if they just sit on their behinds and eat biscuits and tea, macros will over run them. i can barely play the game without setting my path across a bald headed pixel. (English people eat alot of biscuits and tea :-w )

[sporkonafork]

jagex needs an american to fix this problem, americans have always bailed out the uk before when they were in need , + theres more experienced americans in this field of work... runescape is the only popular game i know of that was produced in the uk..

[volcom24734]

the whole story is like this

 

yes there illegal and they shuldnt be

 

but what happened if theyr really were no macroers

 

yew prices wuld go up way high and id be in good business!!!

 

but others wuld dislike paying more

 

i hate macroers but i think its a little different than just cheating

 

it holds the "yew market" in a balance

 

i really do not know what to do about them... :(

[Mountdoom77]

I hate em. What is jagex doing? Stupid stuff like making chicken suits and worrying about useless things and not about macroers. They're ruining this game. Period.

[cool_chica88]

I saw 24 macros shark harpooning/lobbie fishing in Catherby earlier. It's getting out of hand.

I am a member, like many of you on this thread I'm sure, and I usually like to keep to mem worlds, partly because of the fact that there are less bots on mem worlds, partly because theres more to do on mem worlds. I do go onto non-mem worlds on occasion, because I do have a few non-mem friends, from before I was a member, and WHENEVER I go onto a non-mem world, every square inch is populated by things like, "jnvfg97ygo8" and the like, all level 3 or level 4 :shock:, and its just plain infuriating! :evil: :evil: :evil: If I dare go into a bank, and try to right click to get the specific names of some actual players, the right click menu is FLOODED with bot names, and I can't find any of the actual players in that molasses :wall: I just can't stand it! Its ridiculous! And its not fair to the rest of us!

 

 

 

And they've even infected the member worlds! Its disgraceful! I cant pick flax anymore because whenever I try, within two minutes a horde of bots comes my way!
