Niceeeee

I always found the most annoying part about RS was competing with bots. Happy to hear that they're slowly being dealt with.

DOWN WITH THE BOTS!

i have a question about people who USED to do these kinds of things
if they have stopped their ways of botting and/or cheating, will they to be banned?

@Crupulus there was a minor exploit which allowed players to get essentially infinite voyages a day, and are now about a month ahead of everyone else. This was often combined with a time glitch to complete voyages early, although I am not aware of how that was performed.

It is now fixed, but nothing has been done to those who abused it and gives those players a month of unchallenged superiority towards using and profiting off the (valuable) armours and scrimshaws.

Awsome, about time these bots get banned. It only took forever. I feel the same way others feel. I wanna see the list of ppl banned or an amount. saying a large number doesn't mean anything. Specialy from jagex. Bots are thier main sorce of income, they can't bann them all or thier game will crash and burn. I want to see more of this banning before i get excited. World 72 burthrope, near banking chest is tons of bots, skill lvl 34. Doing what idk, they take a step forward and back.

TBH about bloody time. Its great to see you are banning those accounts that abuse the game. Now what about us players who have been on the receiving end of constant bug abusers and have sustained significant losses as a result.. thats right you dont give 2 hoots about our losses. I also found out that the people who bot, buy up legit accounts and hold a significant number of legit accounts to which they often transfer huge amounts of rs gold ( were talking 10's of billions ). Also after they have abused a bug they transfer this money to one of these legit accounts, then you ban the account that abused the bug ( but not always )....which means they have reaped the rewards of exploiting the bug because they still have the billions they gained from abusing the bug.... and have only lost the $5 for membs.

Now I also have a suggestion, why not get rid of this crappy EoC update
