This idea was inspired by this xkcd http://xkcd.com/810/

Random events are largely now useless in deterring botters. So based on the comic, I thought of two possible new random events.

1. Chat Analysis:
The player is shown 3 sets of 3 chat messages. You are to choose the one that doesn't break any jagex rules.
Example texts:
a) [153] C heap R S gold $5 7 mil w ww.R Ssh0p , c0 m <<<>>>
b) Buying all law runes, 200 gp
c) Doubling money, I'm legit.

2. Player Analysis:
This would be kinda like the evil twin random.
A video is shown of a popular botting location (eg. Draynor willows) You are asked to observe the video and pick out the one(s) that appear to be botting.

I'm not sure easy these can be solved with reflection and such. :sasmokin:

There is a lot jagex can do to stop botting. The problem is that they aren't doing anything, not that they don't know what to do.

Meh, i doubt jagex even monitors this site, so i doubt we'll be seeing any jmods here, and anyway, there are a ton of ideas on the Rs forums to stop botting, but they never even bother implementing those.

I still like the idea of parsed worlds that allow botting.

They dont know what to do so they get hordes of like 200 people to come follow mods and they do manual traps and banning, I saw it happen at draynor once and at the essence

You'd surely pick out everyone, yes? You'd be 90% correct and the it would have to allow a threshold.
