Main banned along w/ army?

Has anyone had this happen to them? I have my main to fund my armies for when they grow. It's pretty loaded with cash and helps me get accounts up quickly.

Has anyone who had a main ever had their main destroyed by Jagex when their army got nuked, even if the main has not been autoing [at all, or for a while]?

Just curious :)
It seems like an empty threat to scare people off who have mule armies, but I'm just curious. Not that it will deter my botting on other accounts though.

Whats the point of having a main fund your armies when your armies are going to be doing something that generates some sort of wealth anyway?

Combat, fishing, woodcutting, mining all generate money and you'll probably want to end up leveling those anyway.

I can load them up with armor and food at the beginning. When I make fishers, I end up with 1000 shrimp + 700 anchovies before I get to 40 fishing. That usually is hard to sell and doesn't get me good enough equipment and food to train quickly to 28 combat (to avoid scorpions).

Of course once I'm past this point I just mule it back to my main ;)

I haven't got any bans from macroing. (Except one in the past when I was stupid and didn't know much about autoing.) If you know how to auto, then your good.

My main got banned back in 2007, for trading with my bots (RWT back then). Nothing recent though, as I have had no main since 2007.

My main got banned in 2008. In February2008 I successfully macroed 99 fletching using an RSbot script. Then in July 2008 they banned me for it. However since that moment I have never got banned. (thank god).

My main was banned in 2007, but I can log back into it now, and my ban pillar is at 0. It just shows an expired ban at the bottom

So, you should all try logging back in!

Yea he did, he said that Jagex linked his IP from this website and banned all his accounts on his birthday.

Thats the only way i see that Jagex can ban someone for having lots of accounts.

I can't see them banning ALL accounts, as people may have 10+ more people who play runescape at there house using the same IP. It really should be a case to be fought when it does happen.

P.S. I'm back to autoing.

Yeah I have like 6+ accounts left with 70/80+ Mining and Wc with cmbs over 80. Most of my friends use the accounts now. Did a lot of yew cutting and essence mining back then. :D

Edit: I used unsigned for all but my main and registered my accounts at the library and school lol

Conspiracy: I think I know why Jagex introduced the new way of increasing the trade limit.
See if a main adds all the names of his army on to this friends list to increase the amount of cash you can send to them, they can easily check the name and ban them along with the main, if the main gets flagged for botting.

Tried that, only useful if all accounts have like 300 qp and are P2P :(
Then jagex wins w/ money

I actually remember back in '04 I deliberatly went out of my way to get banned ( I was bored of the game for that time period), and even by breaking all the rules I could think of…Nadda.

But wait! Someone calls me a noob, and I find out in the forums they get banned. But I think it was for something other than calling me a noob. I still can't figure out how I didn't get the hammer, I mean I witnessed tons of people reporting me.
