Be sure to read through the thread before responding @itsjohnor . I know it's been flooded with spam, which is one of the reasons I still think a fresh thread would be good.

Anyway, I already explained why I don't support host-only burners. W330 is critical for new and mid game players. I haven't had a single friend actually stick with the game without using w330 hosts. 2 of them made their early money helping burn for a host (10k from stronghold doesn't cut it in this economy! Haha). Also running d bones. Likewise, someone could make side money burning on an alt while focusing on main. If there were a bigger, more definite, more game-impacting issue with this purported botting, I'd maybe see a reason to strip this great early/mid game content from the game. Otherwise it seems like a drastic change for a mere allegation rooted in competitive passion.

What are your thoughts on having skilling hubs (nothing overpowered or super high level of course) in POHs?? That could provide a function for alternative hosts besides the established ones. And maybe help detach you from some of this inter-host drama and focus on accusations. I saw the YT vid you posted of botting, but I don't see how that exposes anyone else. Sadly, I (and jagex) have been aware of the existence of bots and scripts for decades. Its an uphill battle with bots... Sisyphus type stuff heh

I think a button to ban people from providing feedback on a suggestions thread would be counterproductive. Also, I see you use threats a lot in this thread: "your finished" "your starting to get on my nerves". Instead, stay focused on feedback about the suggestions.

The preloading was from a Twitter thread with mod ash. I think it would discourage botting but yes, it would make hosting easier. Perhaps, that would only be unlocked with 99 con or something? I dunno, i just provided a list of on-topic suggestions

Heck, I even burned one for a host once because I noticed, after several inventories, one of the incense burners was out >.< Tragic! Don't worry, I still got my 99 prayer :)

Anyway, that's why I don't support host only burners, especially without a more drastic exigent issue at hand

Despite nearly a dozen requests to stop using this thread to flame and insult other users, or to make accusations about other users, it is still continuing. And more posts have been removed because of it.

Therefore this thread has now been closed.
