Please put more pressure on cheat clients, AKA OSbuddy. All the clicking hax and farming advantages need to be bannable offenses. It's an unfair advantage that people who play legit can't get.

I agree. Banned all! PLZ

OsBuddy is approved by jagex. . .

Approved is not the same as tolerated. They tolerate the client, they do not approve of it. Besides, the farming crap wasn't in the client when Jagex said using the client was not bannable. The client's devs have taken Jagex's complacency for granted and have added several unfair plugins that give people who not only use the client, but also give them money, huge advantages over everyone else who uses the official client. Jagex needs to start putting pressure on these people.

This means we have to dig further into who is doing this, why and what they do after doing it.

This seems to be a rather unnecessary question.

Many players prefer to play RS in the style they are used to, but they don't feel like regaining the stats they've worked on for years. AFK training provides an easy and fast way to regain your stats and return to what you loved doing: stuff that requires high stats such as bossing. After all, while the idea of OSRS is that everyone 'makes a new start', in reality many people feel like that their account simply has been reset as they don't feel they're playing a new game, but rather the game as it used to be.

So, why are people doing it? Because they want high stats but don't want to spend years on training again.

What do they do after doing it? They use their stats to do minigames, kill bosses and PK.

Edit: I have always despised AFKing and cheating, but I simply cannot condemn it in the case of OSRS. Players never asked for their accounts to be reset (because no matter how you explain it, that's what essentially happened), they just want to play the game with the stats they trained in a legitimate way. Exactly

If the goal is to maintain a certain distance from difficulty of training skills between OSRS and RS3 by returning to the training methods of early RS2, then it has been achieved. The bulk of skills are what people would consider non-combat and there hasn't been any gamebreaking change in ways to level those skills. There have just been some welcome quality of life updates like reducing number of clicks in otherwise carpal-tunnel-inducing training.

People for some reason think that there has been been a gamebreaking change in ways of leveling combat skills. There has been none. As said, afking already existed in the past. Splashing already existed. NMZ is just a new manifestation of afking.

well i think part of the problem in general when it comes to problems in the game is everyone looks to jagex for answers, oldschool jagex is a small team and when every little problem and every little report abuse is admitted to jagex it overloads them because they are a small team and no matter what jagex does some people may still disagree with it either way so maybe some of the power should come back into the players of runescapes hands.

nightmare zone is fine to stay but its a dream so its not like real fighting in real osrs so a lower increase in experience gain from nightmare zone but it should stay, you do train combat in dream and you take that experience back into real osrs.

you should be able to splash negative magic armor gives that splash effect so less exp like we see but you are still casting a spell which gives exp however you can stand around in real life but a hornet etc could come along and hurt you and certain randoms represented that so something should be done about that.

Everyone can want an easier game but when they progress through the game rapidly quick with some things that wouldnt make sense such as no negative randoms what will they appreciate more out of a game.A realistic tough and with some twists that still are cool and make sense game they can be proud of knowing they got to where they are because it was the way it should be or a game that was tried to make to easy and they burned through to easy knowing their skill didnt come to play and small and big scale and other peoples didnt have full effect and harder for me to compete.

nightmare zone is okay for what it is just less experience gain then normal fighting because it is a dream but still some, but make counters for something like this such as trainers that can offer you advanced training increase your melee stats to 120 but requires intensive training that definitely can not be afked or something and this is just an example.

Yea finally Jagex has interest all to stop what i dislike so much.
I mean first this ddos fools, second bot user and third each other Problems.

Patience? Again? RS 3 i stopped to use after there to much time was used to Combine not compatible programs from jagex self. There i had more then 7 years Patience.
But not more.

When OSRS will become the same Horror is it game over for me.
Games should be playable, if not - better to stop.

Gl Jagex.

please increase the areas in oldscholl runescape that are multi combat i think people would feel better about that because anywhere really anyone should be able to multiway if they choose to also if you put something the way it seems it should be then just try to expand off it so people feel the best about what it is so make it work differently in areas if it needs to

One of the things that I really want, is a way to imbue items that is NOT NMZ.

NMZ was very controversial when it was added. I dont think it should have been at all.
A great way to get imbued slayer helm would be to kill monsters that drop parts you can add to the slayer helm. or pay 400 slayer points for the ability to build one (or both).

(Unrelated note) Vet'tion looks like an rs3 boss. fix that please.

(Also) 72 slayer is about 800k exp. It shouldn't provide the best money per hour.
Crafting 2 nature runes requires like 90+ runecrafting and is no where near the money per hour. Nerf Wyverns drop table, Or get rid of the 6 square invincibilty
