Thank goodness i must've reported like over 1k bots. Glad to see you all doing something now. Mod reach, i love osrs. And want the community to be free of bots.

I personally think bots farming gold to get eoc cash, items, and rares from people who quit playing eoc. I never been a fan of inter game gp trading, although you guys claim it isnt against the rules. You all may see it as harmless, but it undermines the intergrity of the game we fought so hard for. It also is the key motivation for gold sellers also to get eoc cash to sell.

A message to people who sell eoc gold dont do it and complain about the bot problem because you all contribute to it. Dont sell eoc gold. If you have to give it to a few friends or let it sit in your eoc bank and get cobwebs, but dont support botters/goldfarmers. The beauty of osrs is skilling could be profitable but when you support bots then its back to an eoc type of economy.

What about the bot bust? Can you elaborate more are these community events? If so i want an invitation.

'We've noticed that around the time of bot busts, bot numbers actually drop! '

Oh my, really? Bot numbers drop when you post the time and date when you're coming to get them? What sorcery is this?

I actually lol'd when I read that. Anyway, that's a lot of talk Jagex and I'm not going to give you praise just yet like some of these other sheep players. You talk the talk but I would like to see you walk the walk.
