Seen many new threads of people being banned, was wondering if its normal or has Jagex turned their anticheat up a notch?

I am currently macroing 2 characters 20/7 and would surely want to dodge this hit.

Perhaps bot a bit less, its never good to auto more than 8 a day.

Are you using simba?

20/7? Jesus. I do like 4/5 as a human might. That like asking to be banned.

Yes, I am using Simba. I have moved my valuables to my banker account but I will keep this up. What do I have to loose. ;)

Do just a couple hours a day or at least use breaks, or you're gonna get spurdobanned :DD I just do a few breaks every few hours and it works good for me.

plekter
02-24-2012, 03:30 AM
Yeah, I am using small breaks too AND I am usually monitoring and completing randoms too, atleast when I am not sleeping. Ive gotten around 22m XP on one character and 12m on the other without getting any problems.

They're not looking so much for bots, just gold-famers or such. If I had to guess I'd say they look for things like...

Do you always do the same task every day?
Does that task generate money?
Do you take breaks / alternate tasks while doing the main task?
Do you ever interact with other players? (Trade/Chat)
Do you ever sell your goods and use the money to buy other things?

24/7 or gtfo! Haha but really you shouldn't be botting that much. I'm fairly certain jagex has been banning accounts and rolling back their gold if they are suspected of "gold-farming" I've seen posts about people claiming to be legits(im not sure if they are really not botting or what) and getting their gold taken away. I haven't seen any posts about their xp being rolled back so if it doesn't generate gold you are probably safer than if the task did make some money. My guess is that they are upping their ban rates. So if you are purchasing gold from some websites it will most likely be taken away and you would have lost money. So watch out! Hope I helped!

Lmao.. So I was just botting on RS (obviously), and babysitting. There are 2 other people mining around me. Some guy comes over, says "I hate bots. They ruin the game." All 3 of us are like "lol." The new guy says "Oh, so nobody here is botting" and leaves. And right after he leaves, the other two people admits that they were botting and obviously so was I... He couldn't have been more wrong :P. Heh.

And honestly, if I reported them, they wouldn't even get banned because I've reported failed bots many times, and then seen them around later with no rollbacks or bans.

plekter

Thats pretty stupid to report people who dont respond back. Tbh I think these guys cause emotional harm to players and should be reported themselves.

I don't see how that should even factor into whether you're botting or not. My public and private chat are always set to friends, that way I don't have to listen to everybody else. They can talk to me all they want, it won't show up for me.

Same. When I leave my bot unattended, I set public to friends, private to off, and sit in my Clan Chat (who know not to talk to me).

You all are way to caught up in the hours of botting.. Getting banned is all about bad luck, getting reported, and failing randoms.

Prior to the nuke, I've had 14-15+ day proggys. Any account I was working on generally ran for 12-15 hours a day (and still does.) I've never been banned and I've botted nearly every 99. Most of them a multitude of times.

IMO time isn't a big factor, mostly being reported/failing randoms is. Jagex has no idea if you're 40 years old and sitting in your basement doing nothing but eating Bagel Bites and playing Runescape.

I usually bot straight with babysitting, whenever I'm at my PC I'm probably botting. I don't know, but do breaks actually help with reducing randoms?

02-24-2012, 07:06 PM
I think it's if you transfer gold, that is when they just have a excuse to ban you.

okokokok
02-24-2012, 07:14 PM
I don't know how good their detection is. When iDung was still around i botted for 1 week straight. Not banned or whatever, still botting min 8 hours a day. So i don't know, but 1 advice: Switch the skill you are botting. Nobody can train the same skill more then 4 hours/day.

Anthano215
02-24-2012, 11:21 PM
Yeah i still bot 8-16 hours a day on my account, although I'm always babysitting the bot and doing all the randoms/switching worlds if I notice a lot of people/or anyone near me lol. I don't really bother with breaks that much since I'm always watching it for randoms. I will do a quest everyday though and then bot the rest.

The time you spend botting has nothing to do with it. I botted my account to maxed combat running 24/7 at soulwars, breaking only for game updates and client crashes. Ran idungpro for a very long time as well. Used a thieving bot and ran it for 8 days straight to get 99 thieving. Sam for agility at ape. Did I get reported? Yes, I had to have and I also got stuck in some randoms for quite some time. Yet my account is about 2 years old now and still running fine with no offenses. My thoughts are simple. Bot skills, you're in the clear. Bot for money, and you'll be noticed as a "goldfarmer" and receive a ban. It's at the point where they really don't punish players looking to bot, only players looking to make money.

It dosnt look like there doing much to stop gold farming ethier since i gold farm about 12 hours a day doing the same thing have been since free trade came back not one of my gold farming acounnts has been banned (touch wood) looks to me like there only going after big gold farming companys xfering bills a day.

I was only banned on two accounts my whole life. First was because back in the day I payed for membership with my moms Checking account and it went negative so they banned me for owing them like a dollar(Had to get membs RS2 was coming out!).

The other time was because I used a shit free reflection script. Honestly you all worry about something that WILL happen eventually unless you flake on your account/project early. So bot bot bot but ensure you have a plan if sh*t hits the fan


Also you should realize RS likes to build suspense. They will allow it for a bit and then bam something big.

Brotein
02-27-2012, 03:18 AM
The only account that ever got banned was one of my mining bots a while back, and that's because it failed some random, and was stuck in the top of falador castle running around for 4 days before I came back from vacation ;). Even then it took another 3 weeks of 24/7 on F2P to get banned. Never lost a member's account.

This is exactly the best answer you can get! Many of us are old botter and We did see all these Bans are purely bad luck for most of them.

I have seen many time people testing The banning System and my conclusion is! Bad luck with People reporting YOU! That will be the thing that will kill you and Do you know who are the people that report you? The same people that use the same script as you and want you to leave his spot by reporting you! I used do to it in the past and it works! If you report someone a lot, it eventually lead to a ban if he is botting.

It's sad, but that how it works. Our biggest enemy is actually the one that is doing like us...

I myself would report individuals who stole my spot while I was already there. As for general botters though, no.

Example:
I'm botting Red Chins, been there for 6+ hours, a person comes along and starts his bot right where I am and have been.
I'm going to report you for doing that, it's just a dick thing to do. Get your own damn world.

And that is why I refuse to use auto responders, and have my character log out if her name is said. I know I would report if I saw botlike activity, and the character refused to respond, or better, if they responded with an autoresponder that had fail written all over it. The best was the autoresponder that would respond "My fire making level is..." every time you said "FM LVL".

I guess the moral of the story is, have your bot play like you, and you should be golden.

ive botted 24/7 on my main now for 2 years now max cape 100% botted
i made this acc cos my last one got banned for marco/major
it was mostly a test to see how far i could get.

i think the reason ive not been banned is i try to chat in a clan chat for about 1 hour a day weekdays and i have never ever gold farmed with it.

ive been seeing alot of people complaining about bank wipes, i haven't transferred any money onto my main for about 5 months and have mules just sitting with cash. for if/when they bring out a new skill and i need to throw copious amounts of money at it.

i want to be no1 even if it is only for 10 mins, just a big forget you to jagex


**appologies for foul language. got carried away

I've only ever gotten banned once. back when i had no idea what i was doing. I set up an auto clicker over night for like a month straight, waking up in the morning still clicking sitting in a random.....

Since then I've gotten smart. 7 99's and rest above 70. Let me tell you now that it does not matter how much you bot but how well you do it. I've been botting on simba for a while now and the trick is baby sitting. I either always have smart open or check back on it ever couple minutes. Without this you are bound to get banned. All you really need to look for is randoms. Pass those ALWAYS and you wont get banned.

So you guys are saying that alching is pretty much the safest bot out there right now? Considering that at soulwars you have no randoms from what I've heard/seen

MaxPower
03-04-2012, 09:33 AM
Scripts that run in soul wars are pretty safe, as long as they have some randomized clicking and failsafes. I agree with what Mr Stoj and Here2Help are saying about safe botting practices.

One of my accounts was stuck in freaky forester for three days straight because i was away from home and had Crashsmart enabled with wrong script.. This happened almost a month ago and my account still remains unbanned. :p

I've botted my various accounts for hours and hours (24/7 or close to it) and nothing has happened *knocks on wood*. most of the people here are right they really don't know if someone actually plays 24/7 it's possible. when I played legit way back in the day being 11 years old that's ALL I did. so anything is possible. my advice, (as said before) is don't get stuck in randoms. also it's best not to bot unless your semi-watching it. (unless of course your using a disposable account). example: I'm botting cannonballs and i've been running it about 3 weeks now around 20 hours a day. and nothing has happened yes during the day ocassionally i will check on it, but the randoms are very rare to get doing this (not sure why).

why would you run a bot when your gone for 3 days?

03-06-2012, 12:38 PM
Just do 24 / 7.

When I run some mule I run it at least 50 Hours straight (No Breaks, just Crash Smart).

- No Bans.

I have been botting for the last 4 years on 5 accs. 1 was only banned @ the ranged guild after leaving it there from 75-97 ranged for bout 2-3 weeks. My other auto miners never got banned, and not even my main on which I botted most of my 99s.

No xp activities can still get you randoms if you have moved by any chance. The only possibility of getting no randoms at all by staying online is to stay at the same title forever and never do anything that yields any xp.

I bet there's a time element to Randoms as well, so you will probably get them still if you do absolutely nothing.

You do realize that there are only a limited number of worlds to play in and the spot you're catching red chinchompa's at isn't yours whatsoever. You can't report someone for taking your spot...

Sorry :p Just had to rant a bit about that comment.

Perhaps bot a bit less, its never good to auto more than 8 a day.

Are you using simba?

I botted for 2-3 years with a injection ( <-FAIL) bot 22/7 and I never got a ban or anything like that. I made like 100m exp in slow skills as Mining, Rcing etc. I think if you use good scripts there a really low chance to get banned.

I'd say that too. One think I'd add tho is: bots always get stuck in particular random events.

Wow.... I think it is really sad to report fellow botters, and Its not just one or two, it is quite a bit of people that do it.
My main got reset after around 8 or 9 months of botting. It would fail randoms and stuff. It took a while but it eventually happened. Just cause it hAsn't happened yet, does not mean its not going too. I think they just wanted a few more months of members out of me before they did it. It happened when I quit playing for a few months and stopped buying mems. Maybe they reset me cause I stopped paying? Who knows.
Be careful out there guys :)

I report the blatantly obvious bots. They diminish the quality of the game for legit players, and do it in such an obvious way they deserve the ban. Go to Sorc garden. It's just ridiculous the number of lvl 3's with names like "lksdofijwer" are running through there. I wish there was a "report area" option for that.

My guess is that most of the banned people claiming to have only used colour-clicker bots are pretty much lieing. They've probably used some sort of injection/reflection bot on the side.

Agreed.

One thing that I find interesting is that there are so few reports of Banning....

You would think in the Garden for example there would be tons...the place looks like an Uncle Milton's Ant Farm on virtually every level on the mini map!

I do about 20/7 also(I do treasure trails as a firm anti-ban and I havn't been banned in a year. The banned forums on Epicbot and Rsbot was near empty with few cases. I got reported today by some prick but I talked after so its probably going to wash off. I sucicde on my main (With 3 expensive 99s) I got banned before for microing minor and got a 14 day with no reset which expires in 1 month(Gotta last 1 month without getting banned but I also need max combat by july) I think its slowed and they try not to ban valued customers.

As long as you're suiciding with purely Simba you should be fine 99% of the time.

Since botting in general depends on luck you may as well go for broke.
