Well you did say we would soon notice a change and i must say I have seen a start. Still lots of spam-chat but Grotworms are bot free. Blue Dragons not. Sorceresses garden is bot free as is catherby but there are still some at chins even though they have been heavily reduced.
As I said Jagex. It's a good start. Please keep up the good work and get rid of the rest.
There are 10 types of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those that don't.

I made myself watch the entire Q&A. Glad I did. Apologies to the Jagex team for my mean attitude. Very sorry, very humbled. I'll shut up now and leave the forums and 'tude to others.
You eenlightened my little conspiracy-minded mind quite well.

i watched the video for last Q&A jagex admitted they losing the bot war finally
i have played since early classic prob since around 97 98 after the next bot nuke i bet 90% of the banned bots return within 1 week they always say we making progress we have a new system they say maybe 2% wont be immediately detected i bet it is more like 60% wont be detected theres bot that have been used since classic that are still used today and have never been detected the way they detecting color sweepers as they call it and patterns and chat repetition fails they been trying to detect these bots the same way since classic when your methods do not change your results will not either the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results
they introduced the squeel of fortune as a way to scam there own players out of more money instead of just selling gold and items directly you buy spins and see if you can get lucky and win something but they say they hate the gambling going on yet they asking you to gamble when you buy spins for a chance to win something they say no theres no conspiracy for us to make more money then what do you call SOF looks like gambling to me
by doing this you show you support the gold sellers why would someone spend $300 on spins with only a chance maybe get a lucky spin and win 200 mil when they could just go to a gold seller for $50 and buy 200 mil and i'm sure you will say you dont have to buy spins we give you 4 a day for free
my question is
1: how are you going to say you don't support gambling and gold sellers when you use tactics just like this SOF
2: how can you say you hate bots when you even said you understand why people would want to bot and never answered the question if you have botted your selves when some of us who have been here since the beginning the know that some of you mods have used and made bots in the past

I noticed the question about those people who have already been botting for the past 6 months, and who will simply stop right before the nuke was not really understood.
It's a simple concern that has been raised many times in the forums. What if player x has already been using bots for the past 6 (or even more) months, then stops just before the bot nuke is released (or even after they get their first warning)? During this time, they have already raked up hundreds of millions of gp as well as several 99s. Will they simply get away with it, because they were smart enough to stop just before the nuke hit? Or will there be actions placed against their accounts too?

My question is will players who were banned years ago who made a mistake and experimented with a bot just one time be unbanned? It is now a temporary ban for doing this as a legitimate player making a bad decision. If so will this now be appeal able to because of the comments mod mark made? He said he did not want to punish legitimate players for doing this one time, that they deserved a warning. I was hacked with a keylogger on an account some time ago and they used my account (it was a public computer and i had no idea they had embedded this program to trap people) to bot. I shortly afterwards shipped off for basic training not knowing they had stolen the account and didn't find out that they had stolen it until some time later after the account had been banned, appealed, and denied. I have been trying for years to recover this account. Is it possible in new light of this livestream that I could get an overturn of the ban in favor of say a temporary ban and restrictions? I know of no other way to prove the account was mine as they used the same Ip as i had been using to do the botting. Please help my case
