IF Jagex got rid of bots

If they did the whole runescape economy would change.

Demand would still be high but supply would be low. Therefore everything would become more expensive. So bearing this in mind isnt it better to have bots for everyone than not to have them.

I would say that almost every level 50+ has bought botted merchandise.

Pls post ideas and vote!

I hope that they get rid of the bots, but not SCAR ;) Cause the "bots" the asian people are using are totally fucking up RS.. All f2p servers are full of them.. And they're all around p2p too.

lol maybe they could make a botting world and increase the security in the normal worlds?!

That would be dumb, the whole point of botting is making money and not getting caught. I'd say that if it wasn't this company handling RS, that it would be worse. But when it's in control by people who don't really care enough…I'd say it might be for the better so far as the mood would go.

If they did the whole runescape economy would die.

Why would the economy die? All those level 3 bots in f2p whacking at the Draynor yews, do you think they're making a huge difference in the price of yews? No. Why? You'll find the answer if you only observe. Most of those bots get like 0-2 logs per tree. There are so many of them that one of them has it set so that the tree dissapears after like 1 log and its game over for everyone and they go to the next tree. Do you know how long it would take to get like 1k at the minimum? A very long time indeed. And then look at all the yew cutters around Camelot. There are just as many people cutting legitly as there are autoers in f2p. BUT there are way more yew logs around Camelot. I'm thinking maybe around 10? Compared to the 2 yews in Draynor. Seriously, for yews, it wouldn't make much of a difference, for other stuff, probably same concept.

It does not matter how long it takes individuals to get 1k. The point is that the trees are completely used up. That is to say they are being cut 24/7, producing the maximum output of logs into the market. Without the bots, this would not be the case. So with the bots there is a greater supply of yews, therefore the price is lower. When the bots go away, after a while, the supply will go down, and the price will go up.

What has the bots to do with lagg.

Anyways, in my opinion, I dont care if the asian bots would be removed or not.

Nothing to do with my life lol.

I dont feel any special need to remove the bots, nor keep them.

If I ever auto, I can auto fine were the bots autoing there with me or not.

STOP USING THAT AVATAR!!everytime i see it it reminds of dankness's avatar, and it scares me.

20 less people crowding around a single tree=more lag and guess like 0-1 logs per tree unless you have 99wc which some of the bots do.
This is even worse lag for people with narrowband, and slow internet or inability to download is one of the main reasons people play runescape, that and the ability to make money in a paypal account by selling, and the rare few who play it for the intellectual challenge of beating their system. You prolly read fawkis "why you started to macro in runesacpae" post. The graphics in rs are disgusting, and pathetic, the only up point is the slightly complex market economy that exists in the game, which wouldnt exist if it werent for the bots and the10yr old retards who can so repetitive mindless tasks.
People who play runescape as a way to kill short amounts of time in office or at home will have a lot less trouble to have fun if there were a lot less bots all over the place. i dont mind bots as much, and after spending some time using the bots here, i can even tell which ones are bots and which arent. scar isnt undetectable form scar users, like wizzups script, the player will always folow the same route through the same ways and do preety much the same thing, stopping at the same place and starting to run at about the same time

I pointed out to some people in varrok a random lvl7 using wizzups and they said that it cant be a bot, bots always do the EXACT same things and bots dont run and it also doesnt have default clothes and its not lvl3. The only thing saving us is the laziness of jagex and the stupidity of normal rs players, if rsdemon users trained their guys to lvl7 before letting them run many people might just thing its someone trying to make some money before they start to kill things or their trying to be a pure.

Runescape is more diverse than most other onliner game, expecially most other FREE online games. theres agame on these forums called 2moons, the graphics there are waaay better than runescpae, they dont even compare, but that game is your average mmorpg, grind to get money, use money to buy better armour and pots, use pots and armour to grind better and kill better monsters to get more money, and theres the different classes with different powers but just one xp lines> xxx amount of exp=lvl2,lvl2=###skill and so on, a better combat system and better graphics, hardly any bots an a more mature audience, but there no fishing/woodcutting/mining/smelting and selling for massive amounts of cash that you collect till you have an obscene 400or so million gold in pixel money with which you buy a completely useless item. 400,000,000,000gold=a hat that sells to shops for 1gp and high alchs for 0gp and is offers no bonuses just a way of showing to other players that your better than them(at being a lifeless loser who plays a crappy looking kids game).Its a symbol of power basically.
If we didnt use bots how would we ever get that hat!Zomg ultimate pixel hat!

see what i mean, hardly anyone here plays the game cos its "fun" you cant really say it has awesome graphics, or the people in it are very smart or helpful(there a bunch of retarded 10 year olds people, thought not all of them are )but theres a nice market economy, with outrageously priced things like the third age armour or our friends the hats of doom(last thing you keep when you die!(a lvl3 walks up to you and your afk and a evil chicken kills you when you have this hat on))

Heres what the guys in 2moons have to say about runescape.Here

In the end we all just to relax. You wake up one day and you realize, that game whos employees you really got pissed of at for not banning all the bots, then got pissed of at for banning your macroing accounts, the game you macroed on relentlessly 24/7 to get one of those hats and you finally made it, you got your awesome hat, half you life thrown away making macros, searching for macros and competing against other humans to make bots, and other bots and humans to get 'yews' or w/e, it after all that you realize, its just a game, nothing more, just crappy 10yr old game for the very begginer to mmos.

Runescape is just a game, they can screw us over but not without losing lots of members and players, they can easily screw us over but then that nice complex and wonderful economy they somehow managed to get going will break down and die, they cant screw rsdemon over without screwing the other bots over too. Anyhow…
Its just a game.

It would be good that we could get rid of the lvl 3 default looking guys :/
I really hate to look at them… :(

If all bots was removed the legit players will enjoy rs and will build up their skills as they make more money and actually get a profit! But now you dont really get a profit so no point skilling….

If price goes up it will be more challenging and it will more interesting to play the game, E.g. Fletching… More of a challenge if no bots… cos u mite not have enough fund to buy stuff you wud get your own supply… Atm i know ppl who buy so much supplies and 99 fletching so easy which makes the skill capes value less!

i think we need them, but the thing i dont get it is, before there were really less bots n yews were 300ea max, now there r millions and yews are like 380ea? I think bots control the prices to so its a half half vote….
