This is nothing new nor informative. It simply means they check for tampering with the RuneScape client and are sent error reports if something goes wrong. It says nothing about actually checking for repetitive actions, etc.

still tho this gives a realy bigger detail explanation to me as of what they sorta have and what they do to detect things

well, isnt really helping us it just went into depth lol

lol
Fagex is just trying to give themselves too much credit. The way they ban for botting is using the random events.
Miss a random, I bet you will get it again really soon, miss it again expect a ban. Thats all they do.
my bot was standing for 6 hours doing nothing just hovering the mouse and examining things and no ban…
I decide to play in RS HD since f2p can play full screen, I miss-click on the pinball random (for the first time ever, never knew it would reset my points to 0 lol) like 5 mins later I get it again o_O well I almost completed it but on the last point the camera angle was so bad (2 of those poles were on top of each other so I miss clicked again !!!. Well after that I just logged out.

The next I come from work and get the message, your account has been disabled…

Like SCAPER told me they ARE doing massive bans again, but the way they are doing it is just stupid.

i already knew this,but good knews for the newbs(noobier than me)

Well tbh i think its there just to threaten simple minded people into playing the game script/cheat free. Nothing to worry about mate.

Hmm do they look at other websites that the IP is tapping into? that way they could find out if we are on Srl or not and ban us.

Doubt anti-virus software would allow them to? Dunno not a specialist on the subject.

That would be against the law. I doubt Jagex is doing that…

the could do that, as long as they are smart enough not leaking it to public, they probably have spys at here too. (funny how its like a war, both parties spy on each other, srl vs jagex), and ways… that is why you don't name your real rsn on here…
