It seems like such low-hanging fruit to be able to moderate people auto-typing Discord urls for cape and other RWT services. I report them, and the same people are still there hours later, repeating the same messages. Just step foot in GE or Pest Control and the messages come in at all times daily.
Is it even worth it to report these bots? It just seems easy enough to rotate a single moderator near the Pest Control boats to handle those bots individually, and to have some kind of text detection or flag for people repeating the same messages with the word "Discord" in them for everywhere else. Someone saying "Discord" 5 times a minute at the GE is very likely not a legitimate player
Or maybe Jagex gets more of a benefit from the chat bots and wants them to continue existing like they are? Let em buy bonds and membership to have their fun, maybe eliminate them after a day, and let them come back with more bonds and membership. The people using the RWT services also continue playing and buying bonds and membership.
It feels disingenuous to have a report option for RWT, not see anything actively done, and people still advertising away daily. Go to page 2 or 3 for a nice period of 4+ hours of an active spammer that I could do nothing but complain about after numerous reports!
Edit:
I'll name-and-shame through this thread, and ironically that'll probably get me moderated sooner than some of these bots
Nope, have to protect the rights of spammers according to rules I've been told, because they're more important than me as a prior-paying player I guess. I'll just continue ranting and give vague notes on active spammers not being dealt with quickly while I wait for Premier to run out.
I've realized this doesn't really matter; simply block and play on, and leave the moderation tactics to people getting paid
