    Default Should I be worried when reported for botting?

    Im using Flights Livid Farmer.
    I always babysit it, and would sometimes leave it over night for only 5 hours.
    Thing is if you don't talk theres always the notion that "you MUST be a botter" even though I dont talk when I play legit cause I get mostly annoyed.

    So thing is, should I be worried?
    Today especially there was this annoying thing following me. Even though I was babysitting and also doing it myself for a bit, he kept going on about "cant wait to see the hand pick you to botany bay" and such. Was really annoying.

    Well, all botany bay does is ban spam bots and obvious botters, not any really human-like bots such as these here at SRL. (Java bots mostly, since they are what cause Jagex the most problems.) But still, start doing more human-like things. Reports may or may not cause jagex to flag accounts, I'm not sure.

    There should be nothing to worry about. I have had these kind of people do the same to me and I was worried but nothing happened to me. If you are worried, do a quest or a sinkhole and you should be fine..

    I speak a second language (punjabi) and my name was unique enough so that people wouldn't assume I was from America, so I would randomly speak some punjabi in between here and there and before I set up my bot.

    Just hop worlds and carry on, leave the prick as he is since he is most likely using a bot himself

    TBQH if you don't bot more than the amount you could legitimately play, you are fine with SRL.

    I don't for sure. And take normal breaks as if I'd play legit. Even would legit a few minutes by pausing the bot, like checkd at the bank, or go to g.e and do some price checks etc.

    Lol. I have the same issue. If your public talk settings are set to off, then you are definitely not getting banned. Lol.

    Actually, when I legitimately skill anything I usually never respond when people message me in game, unless it's a PM or a real question I find the need to answer.

    what I tend to conclude is: What if youre muted and CAN'T respond? or don't know english well?

    I too see the Paranoid antibotter players reporting Mass people, sometimes overzealously and they end up reporting innocent people :/

    Im paranoid myself so I always wonder and usually bot in secluded areas where very little people come by.
    Livid farm doesn't have a lot of people come by BUT there are a lot of high lvled players that do, so I always worry if it will be one of those maxed/compl ones with tiest to jmods.
