JaGeX, you've all heard rants about macroers right?? And WE all hate them right?? Well, I was watching videos of some of the software they use (No, I don't use it, why else would I be ranting?)
I was looking closely at one's picture, it said "Run away when lower than 5 health"
That means like getting a chicken or something while using that macro to cut yews. One of them said to run away when first attacked. I started looking stuff up, and I found the reason WHY it can do that.
Codes.
EVERY site has codes in them, every page has codes, the GAMES have codes, this game is made on Java, which is just one huge pile of.. Codes.
Want to know HOW they know if they are attacked? The macro software knows the codes.
So JaGeX, instead of saying you CAN'T stop them, stop enjoying that extra cash and start changing the codes so they don't know!!!
Also, I looked up even more things, it's not like spyware stuff where it knows keypresses, it can't look at when you are attacked ALL the time when playing RuneScape, so it is codes.
But what I think: JaGeX only ban these people so then they can make another account, so THEY get more money. How else did they reach 1 million members? More than half are macroers I bet.
JaGeX, CHANGE THE CODES!! They will figure it out again, sure, but change it again!! If you can't becaues it's a "Free" website, use some of that 5 million a month to pay them to change them!!!!!!!!!!!!
JAGEX, IT'S FREAKEN YOU!!!!
