Lol you guys think its Botwatch and player reports that cleared out the bots.
Newsflash it was the game update that always breaks bots for a day or two.


Actually, you are VERY wrong; I witnessed JMod Almighty (he knows who he is ;) ) in action, and he was very effective against bots; a large part of bot population left us thanks to him and Botwatch; hope he isn't going to lose this great habit ^^

That might have been the case 5 years ago, but in the past few an update just meant that the bots have to be manually logged in again, meaning they started appearing again within an hour after the update. Obviously it takes a little longer if an area that the bot uses gets update, but that hasn't really been the case in osrs yet.

Also, if you bother to look around instead of spreading lies, you would have seen that many area's of the game seem to be a lot clearer all the time, not only after updates. (Think about 5 yew bots instead of 30)
You will never get anything for free. Anyone claiming that is trying to scam, lure or hijack you.

i just want to say that your bot bans have no effect because so many legit players already have botted up their mains and made bank to buy items and pk supplys with leaving me far behind they have no reason to bot anymore and have the rewards of a well trained account which has ruined the game for me cause now i have to spend countless hours everyday just ot catch up which is why i will no long be paying for membership or playing at all i am going to just go to a different game. bye rs i will miss the old days before eoc sticking with the game from when there was no wildy though bh crater and pvp/bh worlds maby i am just meant to play private servers that give me a fun gameplay without the needless wasting of my life training an account that others have botted and earning gold others have botted and now dont bot because of the stepped up botwatches should of had the bot watches heavily when you released osrs

Well .. those who botted their accounts cannot really be called *legit players* :P

I know how frustrating can be when you see people with more money, better stats and so on, especially if you think (or maybe even know) they didn't get their .. accomplishments in the most honest way.

But you are missing the entire point - you ARE supposed to spend hours in a game training your skills, you ARE supposed to work for your fortune, you can't call this *waste of time* .. this is what games are - a way to *waste* your free time in a pleasuring way.

There will always be others with better stats, more money, taller, shorter, smarter, younger, older, faster, slower (and so on) than you; so?

Here is a bot report for you, Keldagrim's Blast Furnace store is currently under seige by level 3 shopping bots, I noticed one the other day, a few more yesterday and even more today.

There seem to be two types with two different behaviors so I'm thinking they are being run by two different RWT sites.

Better sic bot watch on the Ordan's shop or it will soon be unusable by your legit smithers, we really hate people poaching our ores, it's bad enough to have a real person buy out the ores you just sold to buy back and use, it's even worse when a freaking RWT site's shopping bot does it.
Ha ha, made you look ;)
