have you ever been banned for macroing to prove this point?

I've had 2 10 day bans for macroing before.

It probably puts the reported people in a queue and starts checking for repeated mouse movements, time logged in etc and if it matches too many then they play a little game of russian roulette. 6 empty chambers (rollback & some temp bans) and 1 permaban bullet

i sure hope it isn't like that tbh or someone with 10 99's botted would get away with a 7 day ban and someone whos botted say 99 fletching could get a perm.

Perhaps giving evidence would give away or hint at one of their bot detection thingy.

I doubt they have anything major in place to detect botting. I'm not really up to scratch on how different bots work but the only thing I could see them possibly having ways to detect would be repeated mouse clicks but even then they couldn't do this on every player the amount of data would be insane, only players flagged. I seriously doubt they have anyway to detect the programs which just watch the client (colours and shapes).

tbh carrying on from what I said before.. They probably only check on a small handful of the people that get reported each day (plus pmod reports)

They most likely get thousands of reports everyday and that's thanks to the idiots who report people just because they don't reply back to "if ure not a bot then say something"

I've been banned falsely for macroing before but they did remove it when I appealed, they weren't too happy about it and was a lot more effort than I would have hoped.

Their macro detection system is weak at best.

When you stop botting, you'll be putting a hell of a lot more hours into the game. It feels more satisfying, I bet. Never botted previously, but getting my five 99s all felt good.

When people stop botting, they'll be putting more hours in themselves, but the account itself will be putting many less hours into the game. Should all bots get one thing and that thing is currently 100gp... If they all stopped, the income of that item would suddenly slow dramatically, the price would raise massively.

Botters doing other things would probably stop that and work on this massively expensive thing, the price of whatever they were botting would then most likely rise again... Chaotic, no?
