I know injection/reflection based bots seem to be banned instantly but how are color bots going?

From what I've heard, Jagex seems to be cracking down on external clients. Some people on Powerbot say they're getting banned for logging in through RSBot. A color-based script through the web client is and will always be the safest way to auto :P

Yet we use our own client… S.M.A.R.T
I personally think pb messed up their new client, making it detectable but just hate to admit it.

Oh I know SMART has so far been undetectable, I was just commenting that the Java bot clients (most namely RSBot) are getting a lot of unwanted Jagex attention lately. And I definitely agree the PB staff won't exactly be quick to admit to a fault in their program, even if they know it exists. Didn't mean to knock SMART or anything.

I understand :) and our botting activitys haven't been 100% undected be it smart or simba related is unknown. With a well written script, a non-manual (automatic) ban would probably come from the user using smart rather than the mouse movements etc. However I don't believe using smart really makes a difference right now. :)

To avoid bans I'm not using bots fully. I make it more of a "helper" like it clicks things for me, but it's me who have to move my character and the camera… And, yeah, I'm using the script directly on rs client; No SIMBA.

imo banning bots will just reduce the population of RS to like idk exactly but like 1 million players if right now we were to have 5m players. Bots are part of the economy and stabilizing resources

Well , for people using custom bots for goldfarming they must be really happy if they're not getting banned.
All those bans make gold worth so mutch.
First it was 0.28$ when selling, now it's 0.40$ when selling.

oh damn, sorry for bumping and old topic, this was still on the first page, I didn't know this section isn't used a lot :duh:
