To all those who auto quite often, by the time you are reading this chances are you already know your accounts been giving a ban. Today Jagex has banned several accounts, not just SRL accounts, but sythe accounts too and mostly any bot using accounts. People using mage training bot from sythe have been banned aswell. Both of my accounts have been banned even though I dont auto them for more than 8 hours a day each.

Checked one of my autofighters and he has 0 blackmarks. I won't bother checking the other 10 as they would all probably get targeted together. Use good scripts guys and you won't have problems!

i think its cause of the name and how its the same name i use on these forums, cause my main has used all the same autos plus more

whats a good appeal? suicide? race? spam?

KoKouKo posting that pic and saying you autoed on in can be used against you by jagex spies.

zasz it doesn't matter lol, he's already banned so its not like they are gonna ban him again now is it? That acc is now useless, just like 3 of mine. Hehe. Oops. :p

Brain

2008-04-02 01:02:02

I would be angry if they got banned!

KoKouKo

2008-04-02 01:20:03

it worked for sporky plus i didnt heavily auto on that account (i autoed enough to get 67 mining, so thats not alot), im still hoping cause i got 25 rune picks on that account :p

EvilChicken!

2008-04-02 03:02:41

Besides telling them someone else had control of your account and then going through the lock process, there is no almost sure way. Otherwise we would all be unbanned and frolicking.

Main

2008-04-03 01:14:00

#1 jagex have auto replys for rule 7.(besides, they've just started to give autto reply's to other rule (such as 1,9), which means they don't read apeals.)

#2 i suggest any one who was suffered in this event should post the scipt they where using.

#3 read my guide on how not to get banned (1k+ views! in my siggy)

That doesn't make sense…………

It's not the script (MK's VEM and Munk's Guilderworld) as I used both on my main and gained almost identical experience, it has something to do with the fact the account's name was "Kokouko" , it had a low combat (maybe) and it was F2P (a even bigger maybe) as I only go the account to 67 mining.

It still sucks that they do mass bans like this as I have no idea how this was detectable…. BECAUSE IT WASN'T! I think they either caught the name or they monitor IPs. Or it's that random.dat file I should delete.

Was caught using Hy's Fight cave…

KoKouKo

2008-04-03 18:51:13

You get lighter bans if your a member

a member:
.5 BM - 10 day ban

a f2p:
10 BM - Perm ban

I think?

Brain

2008-04-03 20:24:36

im none mem, and when my main got banned it was 10 day with .5 blackmark…

That's not true.

KoKouKo

IDK I've been told it was.

But still no matter what you do you do get a little bit more lenience when your a member.

lol believe it or not, they actually do read all the appeals, although their replys are always the same no matter what your reason for appeal is.
@ Brain. Suicide threats dont always work :( i tried 1 with my auto miner 4 months ago and it stayed banned

2008-04-04 23:36:34

A week before, I had 4 of my autoers and my main banned at the same time. I have heard of a way to almost counter these bans, go to my thread in runescape tutorials. Its a way to get another final appeal after your final appeal has already been denied.:stirthepot:

My best autoer with 85 mining got banned! Dammit.

2008-04-05 09:59:59

^^ aww thats brutal. is he perm. banned?

Did anybody here play runescape classic? if so, do you remember that huge and final last ban? the one that completly wiped out runscape population pretty much? I had a character with all 99s because i autoed 24/7 (literally) on that 1 character. R.I.P puremike7

Was it like when Rsc went p2p and then few months after that? I have still left 1 acc with rsc access. But i can only make him p2p bycash, pins blocked,credit cards blocked

2008-04-07 13:33:59

One of my characters was banned as well on the first. It was for his second time autoing and luckily I received only another ten day ban.

Darn, Jagex might be catching on.

Anyone have idea the causes for this? Jagex getting better at finding bot?

I think jagex is viewing this thread and are laughing there heads off.

That "drunk" appeal is probably the type of thing that some Jagex guy gives you a pass on once, because it's so freakin' funny and it made his pathetic day. The dude probably posted it on the wall at Jagex HQ. That's what I would have done, anyway. Unlikely to work a second time (assuming it even worked the first time).

A friend of mine once asked his brother (a traffic cop) if he'd let a guy off the hook if he asked for the guy's license and the guy produced a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card from Monopoly. He thought it was funny and said he probably would (the first time).

…………we have conclusive evidence that you where in control of the account at the time of the offenceand for this reason the offence will remain on your account…………
