Sorry to see you go. Maybe try other parts of the game until Jagex has time to cater the hosting mechanics to your needs. But also, taking a break from the game is good time to time. I've played on and off since 2001 and can attest to a high number of breaks ha. If I recall correctly your last break was quite short, so try your best to step away for a while. Good luck!

All that being said, harassment and defamation is no joke. I think that's part of why the f mods have been so clear and intense about your defamatory claims about Jagex purposefully targeting you and allowing host bots to hurt you. Harassing and defaming Jagex employees isn't okay either. Taking a break from all this would be good. I had to get the FBI involved when I was being harassed, and I hope it doesn't come to that for you. They'll probably fizzle out after you take a break for awhile. Oh the internet.

Finally, I will reiterate that I disagree about host only burners. As long as I can remember runners and burners have been a way for noobs to get decent money before they have good stats. I think no ad board is an okay idea, like I said before, but I do hope they prioritize bots that impact far more players than the few w330 hosts.


Thank you for the offer but I refuse to play a game that has 5 anti cheat specialists, that do not have time to teleport or view bans and allow complete chaos focusing more on the side of "production" it seems like they are more busy trying to sell the game than actually care about any of the players, which is why I do not even want to take part in any other community.

Plus even when i login to runescape, I get a load of hate and spam, thats never taken care of, so best to try keep myself of as long as possible.

I would say everything in this post has been mentioned about 120 times to them and I would say every other bot has been mentioned to them..

I appricate your help to, I firmly believe with 200 people reporting nothing will still be done, as user said before you, they ain't fixed those problems to do with botting either, ever since mod weath left its been up in flames, pretty disapointing, not a big fan of the current anti cheat team either.

Yes the post was found by me ages ago, it does some what work I guess and there maybe other forums but I have not found any yet.

I have tried to do my best exposing these issues and may continue to force it more, the only problem is all the bot hosts are working together, meanwhile all solo hosts which barley exist have problems communicating with each other, so pretty much getting this out has been hard, due to the nature of attacks, which have all been sent to tipoff@jagex.com more than once twice and three times.

I have also personally reached out to certain jmods to, still nothing, as i said time for a break, hopefully when I pop back they fixed something.

Perhaps. Part of the issue the team at Jagex has is likely that botting is becoming more sophisticated and is constantly evolving. There are two ends of a spectrum that are constantly pulling on one another, if that makes sense- I think that can make it very difficult at times to find ways to alleviate or fix the issue entirely. Frustratingly, player owned housing is a small pocket of a much larger issue where the players that do abuse the system, have cornered and capitalized off said pocket. As you said this can make it difficult to deal with- I think it is simply a matter of time rather than a matter of nothing being done.

With that said, I think what would help players like you and I is if Jagex shared something of a framework that they have (or really just talk about it!) in order to deal with botting. Historically, they have been very selective and have kept the details of how they will deal with botting under wraps. It does make sense on one hand, on the other it would help to give some reassurance to the player base that anti-botting implementations on a whole are taking place.

While I don't have a strong opinion about these suggestions, I will say I pray that Jagex doesn't prioritize these. There are so many other, bigger issues to focus on that actually affect more than the handful of POH hosts. In my opinion, hosting isn't really much of playing the game, tho it's your choice to do that as your OSRS playing. (In fact, I'm surprised the norm for hosts isn't alts, since you'd assume you'd be playing a main while hosting on an alt or something)...


The current PoH system can definitely be improved upon- however, what this does not mean is that people wouldn't have access to the conveniences of teleports etc... We're really only discussing how we can improve the experience for those who are often left out of hosting due to

Could you elaborate on how the alleged botting "leaves out" some people from hosting? From what I've read so far people can still host regardless of OPs issues.?

One thing these ideas takes away is new players being able to burn for some start up gp. Also I've seen the ad board being robbed suggested. Those were what I was responding to when I mention the conveniences especially for new players.
