I dont know if this random event is known but i have never seen it in the 7 years i played rs.

So what happens: after a long time of fighting, there will something happen to the npc you are fighting with. (got this with ghouls, yaks and deadly red spiders so far) i dont know exactly what happens but if i babysit my bot i find myself sometimes at that big mountain next to catherby. There is a chatbox: deadly red spider: why didnt you help me? The only option you can click is: click here to continue. If you click that nothing will happen. Also: all your items will be noted if you got teleported away.

Will post a picture soon if i get this again.

I believe this is what happens when you don't talk to a Talking random event, (Miles\Giles ect)

Do you get a interface with a deadly red spider saying why it didnt help him with miles/giles?

I believe it's a glitch where it uses the closest NPC's head for the interface image

That would mean that deadly red spiders have a preset chat face… I don't think they do since they don't have any dialogue and if there is one in a quest, they wouldn't be associated with regular respawning NPCs.

I believe this is how I lost like 7M (lost all items, no 3 items protected). It makes your ring of life noted too… And that mountain is full of aggressive wolves.

That's actually quite devious. I guess it notes everything as punishment because giles is a noter?

Why are they putting all this work into banning 07 bots….
I've never seen so much effort against bots in EOC..

The only thing i can think is that the 07 bots have to be members.. so banning them, might make the bots create new accounts.. so more money for jagax..
