WOW, big deal...

When are you going to get rid of the bots?
The are private messaging me asking me if I want to buy gold now.

If I remember correctly, their current priority is resizeable screen, and after that they will prioritize on the anti-bot software.

Making a working anti-bot system is never so easy. It takes a lot of time and confirming. We don't want a false-positive mess like some other MMOs have done with rushed anti-bot feature.

Those bots are randomly generating their names and creating new emails and accounts to spam with. There is really not that much to do due to VPN:s and hidden browsers.
Runescape player since 2005'ish (another character)

They are always working on rwt/botting, it's completely different teams that deal with that.

All you can do is report them for advertising websites and the team that deals with it will see how they're getting around the filter, and block that.

I think bonds are a great idea. It's very easy to think about those considered wealthy in our real world and that gives them such a better advantage over others. Who cares? Think about your own Runescape adventure and don't let others determine how you play the game.

It brings me back to over 10 years ago when I started playing. I was young and did not have a lot of personal money to pay for membership. It was easy for me to make in game cash. Bonds would have helped me pay for membership using the money I worked hard for in game.

Think about the players who don't have the advantage that you may have. They should be able to enjoy Runescape as much as me and you. Bonds are there to help them!

You may not agree with me, but that's ok. It will not affect how I play!
