    Long ago, a chap called Kaitnieks created a scriptable macroing engine called SCAR. Some other people showed up to write includes and scripts for it... and the rest is history.

    Taken from a similar thread, they're all decent reads.

    https://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76539 - "Goodbye" from Icefire (or Wanted, whichever name you prefer). A good long post about the differences between SCAR/Simba and documenting the drama from someone who left SRL for the SCAR community.
    https://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=66286 - "OSI - Official SCAR Include" - Developed by Icefire. Mentions Timer, another SRL -> SCAR convert who was really chill but apparently didn't play nice with everyone and was banned. This thread discusses a lot of random stuff too.
    https://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=101411 - "Question on SCAR" - A relatively newer (2013) post about SCAR from someone who was around a long time ago and missed the breakup - less detail than the above posts.
    https://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=61521 - "10 Years Later (A History of Botting)" by Benland. This was just as Simba was getting its footing and whatnot (before the dramatics really started).

    That's all I found with a quick Google search, the first two will keep you busy for a couple hours if you read all the posts. Lots of detail in the first one honestly, I've read it before. It gets a little crazy.

    Been here little over a year now, and never knew about any of that backstory. Pretty good read! I just wish I had joined earlier, or that Runescape was as big as it used to be.

    Sure it's not at the highest playercount peak it's ever had in its 16 years.. but it's not doing that bad currently. Especially considering the relatively low % of bots since summer 2k13.

    osrs is currently doing better than pretty much ever before, since release.
    rs3/eoc has held relatively stable in that time (lil bit under 4 years now).
    total rs players currently http://i.imgur.com/svd2hIL.png (rs3 + os), if comparing it to say games on steam atm.. http://i.imgur.com/q42BoIC.png current players beaten by 2 & peak beaten by 3.

    btw here's a nice site that you'd probably find interesting if not seen before: http://www.misplaceditems.com/rs_too...qtr_hr&total=1
