So about an hour ago I reported a couple of blatant botters using spirit spiders / summoning and harvesting red spider eggs at Edgeville, between the bank and the smelter. We've been breaking the botters using clan vex and fires (and making a small profit off of their spider eggs when this stops them picking them up) but it would be nice to think that within an hour of being reported the super new bot detecting software that mod Mark was so enthusiastic about, and its ability to auto detect and catch all bots, would have been able to verify their activity. Heck, if a J-Mod looked at them for 5 minutes the botting is pretty obvious! Of course, they're on a members world, and I can't help but wonder, is it that (a) the bot detection s/w is simply failing; or (b) member bots safe because they're part of Jagex's income stream? The latter has been denied many times by Jagex, in which case the bot detection software is simply failing again!

The way to report bots is pretty easy. First you have to enable right-click reporting. You do that in game by opening the Options menu and checking the checkbox for right -click reporting. Then every time you right click on any player, you have the option to report them, and when you do, select "Macroing" to report them.
One right click, and one click for "Macroing". That's all there is to it. You can report 50 ess bots in a minute at Aubury's that way.

now that bots are being banned what about world hoppers they cause just as much damage if not more due to getting resources at a faster rate than the game was designed for or do they get a pass on fairness cause they sit at there computers.

There's nothing wrong with world hopping. To say they're causing just as much damage as bots are is ridiculous.

Okay so after botany bay, it seems like the bots are move active now. Jagex said they'd get rid of bots, yet there are more of them now. I can't even go fight ankous without there being 4-5 bots in every world there. All of their software just updated to the new updates. Nothing changed Jagex, there are more bots, and prices continue to fall. Honestly I think that botany bay was a hoax. I've reported hundreds of bots and not one of them get banned. They just continue to bot again and again. You said to report bots that we see, what's the point in doing it, if you guys don't do anything about it? I think I speak for everyone when I say we want the bots gone!

If there were more 500, 1000, 1500 worlds, maybe we could get to those resources huh! Funnel the lvl 4's with only 1 stat downward. Easy picken's for Jagex. Did see the hand at Lumby teleport (world 2) picking off tons of bots. Now that was FUN!

i have a question for live stream hope it will be answered tonight.
i am a clan leader and suspect some of my members of botting. i have kicked the ones i'm positive of. but i'm no bot genious and can't be exactly sure about all. i would like to report them but cannot find a way to do so. Are there any future plans to make that possible?
