Ages ago I remember JacMob posting on the forums that he had something to kill the bots back in march. When I looked at your concept are it was signed in April. I can only assume it was the design of the system. So was Jacmob telling us about he made a discovery to be released in march or was it only a discovery?

Please return Mobilising Armies rewards after bot nuke on, make something good for moneymaking like 2-3 million per h, dont need to be abnormal profit of 10 mil / h, but it would be nice to return rewards, now is so nerfed because of bots....if bots are gone..please fix back rewards
method was there since 2008 , so let us enjoy mobilising armies
2/3 mil per h from mobilising armies is nothing for runescape economy if there is no bots ...

please supoport and think about this for all mobilising armies lovers
answer please

I would like to know why the hell are you giving bot users 2 or 3 chances to stop? all you are doing is giving them a chance to do more botting and clean off the account before they get banned.
Let us just splat them into oblivion MWHAHAHAHA
JUST BAN THE RULE BREAKING SCUMBAGS, DON'T GIVE THEM A CHANCE!!!!!!!!!

Hello. Since the new release of botany bay arriving. It has been released that the players should receive 2 warnings with temporary bans. So my suggestion is the accounts that have been banned over the past couple years should be un-banned with there first or even second warning. But it is only fair by changing the rules that you have given everyone a fair chance previous and future.
You have always said that you are "all about the community." Well, here it is. Everyone deserves a equal and fair chance.
I move that everyone that has been banned (for macroing) be unbanned with there first and/or second warning.

Would it be possible to add a "Botany Bay Hall Of Shame". Basically a highscores for all the banned players so we can see just how the kinds of players who used bots (what i mean is we can see their levels and so on)

Uhm, I think something went wrong :
"Simon van der Spoel - Facebook
Q: Are you at all worried about regular players botting to test out the new anti-botting measures?"
This is me alright, but I can't remember asking this.
I've taken a look at the facebook thread/discussion and the only thing I have said so far was this :
"Simon van der Spoel LMAO, GerhardQuest again. XD"
Would a Moderator please be so kind to edit it?
It would be dishonest to take credit for something I haven't done.

I heard something that Jagex and a team of high level players were going to help and try to find some more of these bots. I was wondering If it wasn't to late to sign up for this team and what level do you have to be? I would be very interested in this bot hunting. However, I'm not quite sure If this is still going on.
Thanks, Voider946.

While I found Botany Bay's release today amuzing to say the least, especially in the Ge area where the Ad Bots advertising websites were muted & snatched up for using macro's, but exactly when are you planning to get the tons of chin bots, blue dragon bots, blue dragon resources dungeon bots, Frost dragon resources dungeon bots, & the thousands of others all over RS? We've reported the same bots every day for the past year and most if not all are still there. I realize they get 3 chances, but I thought you would log them out on the first warning, then if they logged back in & continued you would again log them out but this time ban them for a set amount of time, and on the 3rd and final time they would be permanately banned. Some should already qualified to receive their 3rd chance by no as they never log off unless your doing a system update.
