DrStrange: a lot of the times it's difficult to tell. There are a few giveaways like their name being something like "aekjfaoejne" and having no gear/a default look. I know there are a few other methods mods use that they don't really like to publicly talk about, because it would just add to the list of things to do for script writers to work around. You just have to use your best judgement and watch them for a while really. We all just have to stay vigilant to keep botters out of the game. It takes everyone's help so I'm glad you want to help solve this problem.
Thank you very much. I report the advertisers every chance I get, and any other rule breakers I could safely categorize, But could never "Spot the Bot"!

I find it hard to believe that a bank pin will stop bots.
It wouldn't be fair forcing people to have a bankpin, a bankpin is an option people have wether they choose to use this or not.
Since J.A.G is running active (to whom that activated it to their accounts) there shouldn't be a way to get hacked, therefor a bankin not a top priority for account protection anymore
but it's always good to have your account protected in every possible way though!

I, And allot of other people, would like to see a more..informative report on what Jagex is doing to combat bots. Because to me, it just seems like your being a bit too vague...
Also; Really all Jagex has to do to fix the bots is make a trade limit somewhere around the 10m mark. This will shut down RS Gold-farming web-sights because it would no longer be profitable to sell Gps. This would also cut down gambling and scammers whom offer a "jackpot prize" such as a rare, and then just logg when someone wins it.
There. Problem solved...
But Jagex won't do it because they need all the membership from the bots because of the backlash from their updates.
