I really hate to do this as you have put up with so many trolls and haters on these forums, but would you please just admit that these 'livestreams' are not live? I actually waste time on a sunday listening to these streams (when i could be watching downton abbey) in the belief that they are actually live.
This week you did actually put objects in front of the windows so as to not give the game away that it was not 9pm uk time and actually daytime outside, but you still left so many clues to your deception. I can understand that the CEO of Jagex would not want to waste his sunday night working, but could you please not waste mine and admit that this is actually filmed friday afternoon?
This weeks proof of your deception:
A question that you answered 1hr7m40s into the 'Livestream' asked by 'Lost Horizon' that you stated were questions you had received during the 'livestream' was asked by him in the early hours of friday morning!!!
I am pretty sure I could probably find most of, if not all of the other 'live questions' you answered somewhere on the internet posted some time before the weekend, but quite frankly you have already taken up too much of my time and made me miss downton abby!!!

yours, Hispid Gnome.

p.s. naughty boy Mod Mmg, drinking at that time of day!

I missed my chance to ask a question due to irl matters so hopefully it will get answered here as it wasn't covered in the QnA
As you know certain monsters had there loot altered due to bots as it lead to a LOT of gp being farmed i.e Grotworms. This was understandably done to somewhat balance the game but as a side effect a lot of legit players suffered.
With your confidence in the new system in place and you claim it will pick up bots really quickly, will these mob's have there original loot reinstated to become the great loot pinatas they originally were?

Cpl, I can assure you that the live stream is indeed just that: live ! If you check out the questions asked on the thread here then you'll be able to see questions that were asked and then answered during the stream as it was happening.
For example, Cake Thief asked on the night ( page 84 - post 8 ) "Could you include a warning or advice against botting in the Tutorial? This could deter people and make sure that more people know what the rules are" - this was then answered in the live stream at 1:11:30 !

Ok. Sorry Mod Mike. I take it all back. I have looked at 'Cake Thief's question in the thread you directed me to and it does appear to match with the 'stream that i now believe to be live' I check back through older posts by 'Cake Thief' too... Quite a prolific poster! and can find no earlier time that that question was asked by 'Cake Thief' So I can only conclude that either it was indeed a 'Livestream' or that 'Cake Thief' is a plant and was told to ask that question at an appropriate length of time into the stream!!!
Ah HA!!!
You nearly had me fooled...
Joking. I Believe.
Sorry to Mod MMG for accusing him of afternoon drinking. I am sure he never would.
P.S. Keep up the good work. the bot scum are slowly vanishing.

I just had a chance to watch the stream on youtube and had a question that wasn't asked, but was talked about by both Mod MMG and Mod Mark:
They both kept mentioning that one way they had to detect bots is if the bot talks like a bot, or doesn't respond at all. My question is; is this apart of the new bot-watch, or was this a method they used in the past? If it is apart of bot-watch, will it decide that I'm a bot simply because I don't want to type? I often am playing while watching TV or chatting with friends online and a lot of the time I'll miss someone saying something to me, only to read the chat box and see they've accused me of botting. Happened a lot to me while making cannonballs, and continues to happen while I do slayer.

I'm just so tired of how anything that I can do to make money is crowded with bots. I get really discouraged. Herblore secondaries?? Bots are in every world collecting them.
A monster that has drops that are valuable? Bots are crowded on every world at every spawn.
Its really hard to compete with something that never gets tired...never gets discouraged..it just keeps clicking the dragon till eventully it gets an inventory full of hides and bones.
Why didn't i just create some new accounts and have them run macros making me rich in rs gold?? I always thought I'd get rolled back or banned if I did...so I just never would do it.
But now your new policy is to just slap the hands of the cheaters...I have 334 days of playing by the rules and I feel really stupid.
