I believe that Jagex should send a mod perhaps once a day (randomly) to wipe certain botting areas clean of all bots. If they do that every day, it would send a clear message: "we do not let you bot here, period". Sure, it takes some work force to do that, and it is understandable that they can not wipe clean all areas, but it will have an effect.

Current issue is that banning the bots doesn't have the required effect - the bots still achieve what they are meant for. A resource collection bot will be able to collect countless resources before getting banned, so the bot has done its job already by the time it gets banned, and the market is saturated with botted goods.

However, if bots get banned shortly after they appear, they won't have time to collect any meaningful amount of resources, and botting in that resource location would be rather pointless.

No. It would be equal to others going into McDonalds and stealing their food, and then you sueing McDonalds for that.

You're game has a code of conduct, Macroing and botting are both against that code of conduct.

So what? If you think that companies can be punished for people not following their rules, you need to think again.

It is not Jagex who are doing anything wrong here. It is the players behind the bots.

..and the players who use the services supplied by the bot makers.

If noboby used the serives supplied by the bot makers then the bots would disappear overnight.

I just made a post about this. The bots in the wilderness arent even killable. its making me want to quit and I have been playing on and off for years. I dont get how these bots have 20k KC calisto and are not banned. I feel like jagex just lets it happen.
