^ yes you dont need to give an example of alt1 i have completed over 4k clues. i know what it does.
and it helps with clues sure. but it doesnt breach any rules or should be changed to be against it. it would then be thin line between allowed quest help and this....

it would also mean runelite has to go asap. in its entirety. and that would be the end of osrs.

so to want alt1 be bannable. runelite has to be as well.... and yeah that wont be good business.

especially as alt1 is just a guide.

Hmm... Playing fast and loose with the word 'guide' there, looks more like automation...

lmao

wehay, luckily what is happening isnt wrong. so its all sorted. nothing needs to change

glad that is finally sorted.

unless you can explain why doing the right thing is making it bannable. right now the right thing to do is the popular thing, so thats a win win :)

Alt1 modifies your Runescape client - "this is a lie, 100% false" - Why would it add 'alt1 toolkit' to your Runescape client (top-right) if it didn't alter it? It also forces you to re-enter your username and password after installing, this rings alarm bells to me. That said, if it doesn't alter it then it doesn't, fair enough. It wasn't a major point I was trying to make and I'd happily remove that part if it's indeed false.
it is an overlay, it is just moving itself to that spot in the window. alt1 is basically a chrome browser with a bunch of tabs you can open up that sit on top of runescape game. it's not a client mod.

i have also never had to enter user/pw after installing... i have no idea what you are talking about Buy Zemomarks / Chromatic Partyhats safely here

I think OP is getting alt1 confused with the osrs clients as for those of course ytou have to enter pass/email as they're clients.

Alt1 isnt a client as its been explained thoroughly throughout this thread so yea, you never once have to do that.

So no personal info is taken when using alt1.

Its cheating, ban people who use it, end of. You'll get it when you deserve it.

yes same here.
Oh OK, fair enough, well that's a positive I suppose! I'll take that point back. Apologies. Bob says:

Nope:

Yes, yes i do.

IMO, all programs should have a chance to exist unless proven they are a hindrance.

Alt1 hasnt been proven to be one and this is all just how ppl personally feel about it.

So since its just as helpful as the wiki, it deserves to stay.

Yet alt 1 doesnt do anything automatically.

If some ppl actually used it for once youd know this.

It just shows you the next step, it doesnt do anything for you.
