There is a quote in that lovely post that makes me feel all fuzzy inside.
" also to keep the game fair to everyone."
Now, Before any JMODS try and tell me sof has no effect or whatever, I fully understand business and its concepts. Now the above quote states, that these players were banned to keep the game fair to everyone.
However, with the current buyable spins on the SoF, the game as much as anyone tries to deny it is unfair if you don't have a lot of disposable income or if you don't want to spend any spare money you do find on a game then you are at a slight disadvantage XP wise and GP wise, granted a player could get EXTREMELY lucky a hit the 200m jackpot on the free spins but its HIGHLY unlikely.

Well done Jagex on banning those accounts.
Now why not go that little bit further and install a program that alerts a member of your staff when excessive amounts of exp or gp have been earned in a short amount of time?
Or would that be too difficult to install? if not I think it would be a good way to detect glitches and those that abuse them, without having to rely on 3rd party to report them.

im a little conserned at this post
We are also removing the wealth from any associated accounts (mules and secondary accounts owned by the same player) found gaining wealth from the accounts mentioned above.
i woke up this morning and went to put on my h mask and noticed it was not there, so maybe i had lent it out and it was not there eather. i started looking threw my bank to find arround 400 mil worth of items gone from my account. so paniced i change my pin right away and goto change my pass to find that jagex is haveing trouble being able to change ********* right now. so i went to check and make sure i had my email registerd and aprently thats not working eather. so i posted in a few places on the forums about this problem. they said they was working on fixing it. so i go and read the news and about this banning thing. and read this.
the thing is i have never abused a bug or recived items from someone. i have 317mil total exp.... this account is not a mule. i had allot of them items for several years. i dont know what but they are talking about, but the way i see it is. yesterday i got finaly got a kiln cape and jagex congradulates me by takeing like 400 mil off my account. thanks bros!
but im still leaning more tward my account got hacked. becuals the items are shown sold in the ge. also the hijacker left my colored whip in my inventory. the fine was removed from it and sold also, but couldnt sale the whip becuase it was colored. if it was a jagex mod they would have known by useing a simple cleaning cloth would remove the color to be sold.
as far as the loss its a bummer but what is more important that keep my account and try to get it secure as quickly as posible. becuase if it is a hijacker there will be no point in me trying to rebuild gold back into my account becuase it will just get taken again.

I'm very proud of Jagex and there ability to show the community the way they have dealt with this bug. It's a great step in comvincing me your dedicated to the fair-play within the game once again.
It's made me so happy and proud to have this pop up on the first page expressing that Bug Abuse isn't just a minor thing and purposely cheating will only get you in trouble.
I have sever respect for those Jmods involved in bringing those who decided to abuse this and hope we'll get more name and shames like this again. And it shows to those who are considering cheating that there are actions being taken and hopefully will convince people it's not worth the risk and make cheating within the game less.

Again, i'd just like to say well done to all Jmods involved in this action!
