I have reported bots coming into game at the burthrope chest bank platform on world 71. Hundreds of them going thru the stages to move to other worlds. They all had letters dashs and numbers. I have reported over a thousand of them. they are still coming into the game on the platform. Why have these bots not been traced to botting activities. There must be over 10 thousand coming in on my home world alone,daily!
My hope is that Jagex will name the makers of these bots and isp ban the companies doing this.
Keep up the good work ....! I once again have the desire to get my completionist cape!

One other thing... would you please change my hair back to silver. Silver is the color my hair has been since i started playing rs in 2006! Orange hair is an insult. tyvm
We do need more bank placeholders since we are banking hidey hole pieces and new content storage. Im maxed out with 20 bank places left . always cleaning bank . time consuming.

I wanted to add I tested the bots at the blue dragons ouside Yanille. The bots all had whips and there were at least 2 at every dragon and more running around. To you guys wanting to kill dragons use armadyl crossbow and dragonbane bolts. You will get every dragon u want from them. I had a few yakes I was not leaving but banking hides and bones. After an hour of bots not banking the bot makers brought in 2 high lvl players to get me to leave. I took a screenie of 5 bots and 2 players standing around as i killed dragon after dragon. I was laughing so hard and had made the extra money I needed and left after 2 hours. Even if they hit the dragon with the whip I still got the dragon. The armadyl crossbow with dragonbane bolts is lightning fast. Try It, u will like it! We do need more bank placeholders since we are banking hidey hole pieces and new content storage. Im maxed out with 20 bank places left . always cleaning bank . time consuming.

While I appreciate the attempted sentiment I feel like this avoids the bigger problem. Making an example of a few high leveled/ high profiled players is better than nothing, but most of us are aware this is just for show.

Gold farming bots have taken over any profitable monster, and I have seen them at bandos in small quantities, possibly for future bot testing, mithrils, brutals, grotworms (still). Honestly some guy cheating to get a max cape is the least of the player-base's concerns. We want to adequately play runescape, we don't want to cancel slayer task on the premise of infestation.

I know its hard to get this under-control, but most of us have waited patiently for years through failed nuke after nuke, and optimus, and botany bay... Go stand at the bank box in Buthrope and look at the amount of bots created every minute.

Lawsuits don't work, you've lost way more than you have won, nukes don't work, they adapt, you crashed the economy to devalue gold so the bots just work harder. Content is pointless if a real player cannot play it because of bots.

Throw us a bone, put in captacha technology, remove free trade, hire people to stand in-game at bot infestations and ban them that way, enable ban disputes so if you do mess up and it was a 'real' player it can be rectified. How long do we have to wait before we see a noticeable difference?

You want to bring your combat up to par with the big 6, bring your anti-bot qualities up as well. This is the most infested game I subscribe to by far.

"harmful toward the economy of RuneScape, and are not the type of individuals that we want as part of our community."

but it's ok when your aloud to manip the economy and ruin the prices of most items? way to go being a hipocrit.

Thank-you so much. I've been noticing that the bots have been becoming much more sophisticated. They seem to be able to bypass quest requirement in order to access dungeons and other areas. I noticed a bot in lumby cellar using the bank chest. They are also prominent in ancient cavern and grotworms, often 2 or 3 bots at one spawn area. This makes it very difficult when doing a slayer task, but more so it detracts from the enjoyment of playing. Thank-you for taking this seriously. Rumours have been circulating that you or the people that own Jagex are the culprits in creating these bots as they are able to bypass many requirements. Your on going fight will help to eliminate such suggestions and bring confidence back to the game. Keep up the battle. Thank-you again
