I get a random event every 1hr literally and I cant run a script more than an hr because simba cant do randoms!

Simba can do randoms just not all of them :p.
Anywyas if you're getting them that often you're probably flagged.
That means JAGEX suspects you of autoing so they are giving you a lot of randoms and watching your account. If I were you I'd stop botting for a while on thy account and do something legit on it (something different than the skill you were botting). And then you'll get less randoms after a while.

That sounds viable, I've got 2 randoms in like 48hours.
But they are fresh accounts.

It's very possible you're just gaining a lot of experience at a low level. What level skill are you training?

I think I am flagged because whenever I come back to see my bot its always stuck in a random so i should stop botting for now

But don't just leave the player inactive, you'll stay flagged. You need to play legit on it for a while. For the first bit you'll still get a lot of ransoms but the faster and more consistently you solve randoms as soon as they come up, the faster you'll be unflagged.

From where did you guys hear about this whole flagging theory?

Wondering the same thing. Has Jagex officially said something about flagging in the past?

Its like a educated insight guess. Many years of observation.

Long ago when the (first?) Java bot, Aryan was around it could even use reflection to let you know if you were flagged or not and told you upon login.

Later it was not possible to know if you are flagged or not by reflection.

It's like just talk, and gossip, and hearsay, etc, but it's probably true and stuff… I live by it, I auto pretty often over 11 accounts and often times do the same skill/area and if any of them happen to get randoms very often, I assume I'm flagged and legit on that character for a while and later the randoms stop being so often.

Oh right forgot about that. I remember seeing it in java but it was like a fake flag that they never used.

I had something similar happen to my main account awhile back. After I started noticing the escalation of randoms, I made sure to cut down on the amount of playing time I was botting the account. I took a day or two off completely before botting again, but that was only for a few hours per day. It seemed to work because the randoms declined in frequency.

That has happened to me before, all I can say is you should play legit for a week or 2.
