Anyone else experience this recently?
I've been alt farming golden partyhats like I'm sure quite a few here might be doing.
5 of my alts just got a 24 hour ban for macroing for some reason.
I was hopping over an agility obstacle for 4 hours without breaks. I set up the cameras to be all the same zoom / orientation, then I unplug my mouse and rebind keys on my keyboard to left click / change to the last window.
For example: Alt + Escape goes to your oldest window (on windows) so I bind that to Z, then I change X to my left click, and I spam ZX, ZX, ZX, ZX (do that for 4 hours and you get your support shard).
Somehow Jagex bans 5 of my alts?
Genuinely surprised that their flimsy detection system is still broke, I stopped alt farming and playing all together in March 2020 because of the same issues after investing 100s of hours into 9 alts (base 80 stats, a few 99s and 4 of them got banned) for being in the same world doing the same things hours on end (but manually controlled)
Their 'bot detection' is some archaic rule based system at this point, if you spend multiple hours in an area with multiple accounts. Just find it strange. I still stand by that given the false ban rate I have friends that run alts have faced too.
End mini rant anyway, puts me off altscape and handing Jagex 30 bonds a month in sub money.
Anyone else still facing this in 2022? This is why I stop playing at times, why should I give Jagex my time and money if they ban you for playing legitimately within the game rules.
