SRL Archive - Banned from RS

OSRS

My hopes and dreams of botting A 99 over 6 weeks, have been postponed..
My freshly created account seemed to last forever, but I've seen a ban coming for a while.

Skills
Woodcutting 90 WC - 36-80 Power-chopping Willows (No smart).. 80-90 Willows/3k+ Yew logs/ 3k+ Magic logs (Smart) Elffy's script
I DID not use SMART for the first 80 or so woodcutting levels, I used my OSBuddy Pro. I Personally believe this bought my account a lot of time.

Fishing: 60ish - Barb village, Trout & Salmon - SMART, Elffy's script
Ranged: 62 - By hand/AFK
Magic: 67 - Wizzy Tower, Rockcrabs AFK, Autoclick

I Found it peculiar that I got banned after I logged into my account this morning, It DC'd me at log-in and upon retry I was presented with a ban, in this case I received "Bot Busting Moderate (ban)". I Will be changing botting tactics and moving onto other scripts. IF anybody has any questions, whether it be the locations or anything drop me a personal message.

is that just a temp ban? Looks like a manual ban to me

Yeah dude it's temp, still gonna get that 99 suicide :P
And you're correct again, bot busting is a manual ban (when they find you in-game)

Also: To anybody who has private scripts and accepts paypal, I'm very interested :)

Sorry for your loss :(

You should know that script buying or selling isn't allowed here.

I've had much greater losses :P And sorry about that, quite a few users offer scripting services over Skype

Good luck with your new account, glad to see you aren't letting it bother you :D

I'd be willing to bet anything you were caught while cutting either the Yew or Magic trees. Also thanks for the detailed report, that saves a few questions.

Let us know if they rollback anything, last time I got a temp ban the accounts had all stats 10% exp reset, some stats with high amounts of exp (e.g 20M+) rolledback further and some random items from the bank removed.

They seem to be dishing out a lot of Bot Busting Moderates, most of the bans I've seen around the last few days I would say around 80% of them have been that, including me. 6 Hours of combat botting at Experiments and woke up to a ban (Non SMART.) Are they possibly sending out more J-Mods to investigate popular places as of the last few days? Also, the threat of a Perm ban if I get caught again has scared me off a bit. I don't want to lose my third main. Maybe change my IP and wait a few weeks if I want to start botting again? Is that a worthy idea worth considering? I don't think I can resist the temptation of botting for more than a month :/

You probably shouldn't bot on something you aren't willing to lose, especially after you've been caught once. You should also definitely consider trying to bot in places that are less popular as Jagex are less likely to check those, and it's less likely you'd get manually banned that way.
