Want to really get rid of bots ? Every game card should have a valid bank card associated with it for verification....caught botting...that associated bank card and account is no longer usable. No money has to come out of the bank card, just a validation of a real person to take responsibility.



I like the thought of this. It won't solve the whole problem but I think this is something that WILL significantly reduce the amount of bots (something that Jagex stated to do in September 2012). If they could block certain bank account numbers that have been known to have payed membership for bots it will have a great effect, I think. If this is not the case, at least they tried something new to solve this problem.
In my opinion Jagex needs to listen more to their real players that love this game. There really are some great ideas out there on how to get rid of this big big problem. Some of them need to be worked out more precisely, but Hey it's a start right?! At least they (Jagex) could give some of these ideas a try, because it doesn't seem like the measures they take have an effect of some kind. Like many players have mentioned before, the botters are coming back faster than Jagex is banning/can ban them.

Jmods please take some of the ideas mentioned in this an otter threads regarding bots in consideration. Many players have shown their will to contribute to a solution for this problem.

Something positive: I like the EoC update, it gives more dimension to killing monsters and such. There have been much updates regarding new game content which I find a good thing.
But I think it won't be a bad idea to get some people that have been busy with the developing of new content to think of new ways to fight the bots.

Hope to hear something from you guys at Jagex!

Kind regards,

Jagex should have a customer support system so you could talk to the supervisers if there is any problems or if you get muted by mistake and you send them an email they send one back with a phone number and you can call them but the number changes everytime so there is no prank call. But if you cant do that and there is only on number and people prank call them ban the number so they cant call anymore.

This would really help to talk to a real person then a computer auto sending you back the same info.

thanks Protoss king :)

lol. Let me say 1 thing:

If jagex decides to remove the trade limit again, then that will be the day runescape truly dies. Gamblers and bots will be useless, EoC blows hard! really only a small portion will keep on playing. That will be the end, but i hope they do that. Let's end it all.

I request that this forum thread be closed.

Obviously we are all angry, about bots rampaging across rs, but getting angry is not the solution.

We have all given practical feedback, and some of us called for action, but i understand that yelling and shouting won't solve this, maybe more p mods or j mods might be able to get somewhere.

Decisive action is required now, obvious the easiest way to get rid of bots is to sell direct to players, but i know that is not in your vision for Runescape.

Tell us your so***ion, lets us know more of your action, a post every now and then is not going to satisfy paying members.

In the past profits have been discussed, and how Jagex was struggling to stay viable as a company, I understand profits and loss, but losing members big time can't be good for business.

Runescape may be your game but the players that work hard for levels, really are the ones that own this game.
