I don't think that's accurate at all... Using OSRS as an example, SMART loads the RS client the same way as the other bots and even handles reflection like the other (reflection-based) bots, I assume anyways, yet bans occur
extremely rare while using Simba. Now if the reason for everyone else's bans is based off client detection, why does it take time for their accounts to be banned? Why not insta-ban when loading the client through a 3rd party program?
I certainly don't intend to defend any other
bots out there, but simply logging in through their client won't get you banned. There's a variety of ways your account could get flagged, it could be the quality of the script you're running, how many others are running it as well, how long you run it, and so on. I believe there's two main reasons why Simba-related bans are almost non-existent: first is this is obviously not a popular program for botting on RS therefore the usage-per-script is substantially lower than the others. The second reason is the quality of.. everything really. SMART is light-weight and doesn't breach the RS client, the SRL (and other) includes were designed & built (and maintained) by some very intelligent people who have an incredible amount of experience in the RS cheating scene, and Simba (in a nutshell) just reads the screen and
can control the mouse/keyboard.
Again I believe the real reason for bans, in OSRS for this example, is based off many other factors but certainly not client detection. Anyways, I'm wondering how long it will take for Slacky to drop in and take this opportunity to point out my mistakes.
