I just witnessed how Jagex is trying to take out Color Bots

I was buying something from a store with a bot and it clicked Buy 50 and instead of actually getting that many a Mini Event happened where it purchased 37 instead :)

I have also noticed when doing skill's at Soul Wars that another Mini Event would happen their which would Click the Mini Map in a random location making the bot walk away from the chest.
It would basically run just outside of where the Chest left the screen :)

Their obviously trying to test something here what do you guy's think and has anyone else witnessed certain events like this?

The shop one seems like it's just an accident where that's how much it had stock.
No clue about the minimap one though.

No their was enough stock their :) Also players have a set limit of stock they can buy each day so it can't change from other players buying some.

If SPS_Getmypos not = X than walktopos..
Get at me Jagex.

Thats fkn weird haha. That wouldnt just mess with JUST bots, that would mess with legit players, too and then they'd be like "omfg im getting H@x3d help". Doesnt sound right haha.

This happened to me once while doing herblore but it happened to all of my characters that were doing herblore at the time… I guess I'll make my script relocate then.. Nothing hard.

It just happened to me when fletching at SW too. So yeah you're not crazy. That is a bit weird though.

It happens to my accounts at SW, too. But contrary to your beliefs, my guess is that the 'closebank'-procedure is misclicking; not some fancy Jagex anti-bot-thing.
They, and especially their investors dont care as long as we pay them to bot in their game. Right now, 10% of the players are buying the gold that 90% of the players are botting. Ok, that's an exaggeration.

While playing legit, I sometimes see the bank screen closing without reason. It is very rare, though, and normally there is a good reason for it to happen. A summoning familiar "calling" itself (teleporting to you) will close the screen. But I have indeed seen it happening numerous times without a reason.

Also, the spot my 'bots' have "misrun" to are always consisent with where the "close bank"-X should have been at the time of misclicking.

It can be fixed by using SPS as Sin mentioned.

No, I know for sure it's not this. It happened to me while fletching, and my inv was half-done.

I'll laugh my ass of if Jagex really decides to fuck with legit players on this level to try to get rid of color bots…
