I always try to report any bots I see as well as the chat spammers "buy/sell gp" bc i hate seeing the spam. It's annoying to know that I'm spending hours doing the grind and then see a flock of level 3's doing the same and know that they serve no other purpose and probably aren't even ran by a human.

With that being said, can there be an increase to max limit of people you can block after reporting. Its to the point where I have to remove a blocked person to add a new chat spammer.

Game gold farmers are often the worst kind of people. Steve Bannon helped manage IGE (Internet Gaming Entertainment), a company that farmed World of Warcraft gold, back in the early 2000s.
That company frequently used the identities of unwitting U.S. residents to create gaming accounts and connected to proxy servers so its activities would be harder to trace to its Hong Kong office.

It would be interesting to know who some of the people behind these Runescape gold farming operations are.

Wow, is this real? A higher-up at Jagex actually let this slip through? Who are you guys trying to fool by saying things like this, implying that you care about the game's integrity, while at the same time you sell Treasure Hunter keys and bonds, which can be used to buy items and "success" in the game?

Kudos for taking action against 3rd party gold sellers, but now is your turn, Jagex: remove Treasure Hunter and don't replace it with anything else. Show that you care about the game. After all, you just said it yourself that being able to buy those things devalues the achievements of legitimate players.


Here here,

This one speaks the truth.
On and off since 2001.

Stone cold truth. I have literally bought thousands of bonds. I have receipts for every one. probably in the ballpark of about $40k IRL money. Most of it was to fund a gambling habit at the DA. One good thing came of it, I have tons of airline miles now. But, he is correct. I buy bonds now just to build wealth and buy rares. With the inflated price of rares, there is just no way to earn that kind of gp in game without nolifing it. And even then, the rate of increase will outpace your earnings. And for my trouble of supporting Jagex with my bond purchases, I got accused of RWT, I got a 2 week ban and lost modship after 11 years of being a pmod. All with no proof.

Be careful kiddos. I am 50 yrs old and can afford it, but this game will take you for a ride if you let it. See you in game!
