@ Activate626 - Your post above has been removed as unrelated to the thread author's issue.

If you require assistance with an account issue, please create your own thread for that. It is much easier to give everyone the help they are looking for if each user creates their own thread about their issue.

If you are not seeking assistance, but are just blowing off steam, then the Rants Forum would be the appropriate forum for that.

Please create your own thread if you have an account issue, posting on someone else's thread just creates confusion.

By creating your own thread you will give people the opportunity to discuss your specific problem rather than getting into a general conversation about account issues.

Nobody is being rude or patronising to you, you're just being offered advice on how best to get the assistance you need.

Am i ever going to get clearity on this "bot bust" and what went wrong that triggered this offense?

Not wanting to sound like a broken record but i have been falsely banned before (later jagex reversed offense and unbanned for error)

It must be either one of the "green lighted" plugins or a wrong ban, yet again.

It's astounding how hard it is to get any clarification on this matter.

Any information that triggers a ban/permanent-ban is given in the '
Rules of RuneScape
' and/or '
Terms & Conditions
'.
Walking the edge of what is allowed or not allowed ... and not checking your plugins for 'unfair advantages' ... might trigger issues you yourself are facing.

Mod Kieren replied "We gave our blessing to the RuneLite team for this and are keen to add this as an official game feature
at some stage
."


If Jagex's decision hasn't come full circle yet Jagex's blessing still is running on hold and making use of such features considered '
illegal
'.


If that logic was sound, players would be banned for using runelite period, as all of the plugins fall under what you described. Not to mention, the Mod clearly stated that the plug in has their blessing, not that it is on hold. The fact they're looking to add it as a default feature in game is separate, it doesn't remove the previous statement.

MACROING AND THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE/HARDWARE


People also call this ‘botting.' It means using software or hardware that can help you play the game with the software or hardware doing things for you that you should be doing yourself. Our games are meant to be played by humans - if you cheat, you are likely to be banned, even if it is the first time you have broken the rules.


The people and companies who make cheating software do not care about your game account. They may lie to you and say that the software they offer ‘can not be detected‘ or is ‘ban proof’. This is not true. Jagex employ a team of people whose job it is to identify when players are cheating and the same team are always improving the tools they use so that all types of cheating can be detected.

If you have any doubt that something you are thinking of using could be considered breaking this rule our advice is to not use it
. Play the game yourself, making sure you are in control of everything. It is simply not worth taking the risk.

As a veteran player, having witnessed dozens of similar cases here on The RuneScape Official Forums deploy, if Jagex/JMods '
do not officially have confirmed
' that certain software is safe to be used, chances are, depending on the amount of '
unfair advantage
', chances are that you will be banned for using '
unauthorized third party software
'.

It is what it is ...
