I think you have to look at how a player and a bot's behaviour will change when they find out they have hopped worlds. There are many things that we look at and I can't go in to too much detail. However, in the worst case scenario which you have mentioned, if a player is stuck on one of these worlds he can continue to skill with no ill effects - he won't be banned if he isn't a bot. We can then look at what caused him to be sent there and update our systems to correct it.
Exactly how does a good rule-playing player contact a real staff person to defend themselves if your program flags them incorrectly? Defending yourself with a computer is like having a discussion with a brick wall. It's totally one sided, and the human has no chance.
This really worries me. I'm a skiller, and I do consider combat/slayer to be a skill. However, if I am fletching a large amount of maples I get from my Kingdom, that could be misconstrued as a bot. If I am not paying attention when another player speaks to me, it will scroll away.
Players that are accused of being a bot, needs a real human to speak to, in order to defend ourselves. If you're going to use a program to accuse, then a player must have access to a real human to defend themselves. Or it is absolutely unfair. IMHO, of course...
Who cares if the computer flags you everyday, because everyday when a live jmod checks you out they'll see there's a problem with the system. Where is the harm, I would be very happy to see they actually care about the botting problem and are doing something.
