YoHoJo's Silk (and Flax?) Bot Buster Reporter BETA

Some of you true oldschool SRLers may remember BotCatcher written by WTFakawi in 2007:
http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8956&
HEY LISTEN:
You NEED SRL-OSR to run this script!!!
Go Here: https://github.com/SRL/SRL-OSR
Click: The
button.
Create a folder in Simba/Includes called SRL-OSR. (Simba/Includes/SRL-OSR)
Extract the files from the zip into there.
DONE!
Welp, this is essentially the same thing, but in a beta version!:stirthepot:
Features:
Finds all 'bots' wearing the default Runescape outfit (and those stacked under them).
Filters them by combat level 5 or lower.
Reports each 'stack' of botters fitting this criteria.
Switches worlds randomly and repeats.
Setup:
DO NOT be dressed in the default Runescape outfit.
Turn on Right Click report option in Runeescape Settings.
Stand near the Silk Stall in Al-Kharid OR In the Camelot Bank/Flax Fields
Info/Plans:
Please do remember this is a BETA, so please do monitor/check up on it every few minutes!
Due to the current nature/code of the script, it only works/works best at places where the bots are standing still, and in large stacks ex: Al Kharid Silk Stall.
I plan to later tweak the code to work for all sorts of locations by quickly locating, right clicking, and reporting bots instead of it's current nature of needing them to be standing still.
After this update, it will be able to run at all infested areas such ass flax, essence, woodcutting locations, etc!
Let's Be A Team!
I hope this teaches you all to bot smart, and respect the game!
Please feel free to run this as much as you can, on as many accounts as you can and post progress reports for funsies! hell it might even serve as some GREAT antiban and prevent your own botting account from getting banned!
Also going along with the spirit of SRL and open-sourceness, I encourage you all to give suggestions, edit, and better the performance and features of the script, I will update the script with submitted revisions/additions/code to improve it as much as I can. Any actual edited/bettered copies are greatly appreciated!
YoHoJo this is cannibalism! Why are you doing this! We are botters!
Why yes, yes we are, but we are not stupid, vicious, idiotic animals. Here at SRL the culture has always been to respect Jagex and respect the game the have worked hard to provide us with, for without them there would be no us.
As the SRL landing page says "We are the hunted for over seven years." and that's for a reason! We bot in stealth, we blend in, we bot smartly, and we do not disrupt the natural balance of the game.
All of the idiotic, obvious, low level, default outfit, gold farming idiots are scum. They are abusing and raping the game and not even TRYING to blend in. They are a nuisance to everyone.
Yes, I know there are 1,000s of bots out there, and this script may only get a fraction of them banned, and even if so they will come back twofold or greater! Well who cares, they must still be stopped, and it's really fun to run too!

A HUMONGOUS Thanks to:
@Turpinator for ALL of the brains behind the string manipulation and parsing, he was so very patient and helpful to me, and all of the credit for those parts go to him!
@JJ For him simple, yet SUPER effective and creative function idea/sample code which proved extremely efficient and accurate for finding default clothed users!
Also check out the Sythe thread, I bet lots of noobs and kids will range and it will turn into something very entertaining:

I'm actually really for this idea as it will help to preserve the game as it should be and not ruined by those pesky gold farmers which I am told have already started to swarm.
Good luck guys.

You were too lazy to do it yourself because you would of lost like 10k on each account because of the 'down-time'.

Thanks. Sick of seeing this
Edit: Nvm, I did a quick skim of yohojo's post before and missed what he said about the other locations.
I'm very for this project but how about those certain botters who are purely skilling at level "3" lol? I love making level "3" skillers and this would just get my account banned by reporters. I uselly wear an outfit but I mean for future updates is this going to report all low levels not knowing there outfit? The only reason I'm asking is because when your stacked on multiable people you ONLY see that "one" person whos on top and if hes not wearing anything does that mean Ill get reported too?
PS: Dont get me wrong I'm clearly FOR the idea but like you said its BETA and I was wondering how you was going to work those kinks out for certain members who like to do purly skilling.
I'm going to find out where Yoho farms and then run it there, with the correct level and clothing modifications of course :)

I can't really see the idea here… Why would you want to bust other peoples gold farming bots? I can come up with two excuses:
1. You could bust people where you train/goldfarm yourself LEGIT (okay you could bot there but just leveling no goldfarms)
2. You just want the 07GP price to maintain higher so you can make more profit yourself.
…And that's just sooo hypocritical.
If you need more space to goldfarm you just have to come up with better botting places etc. and not encourage others to use scripts like this.
I can't judge you as i don't know your real motives here, but to me, they seem a bit suspicious.
All of the idiotic, obvious, low level, default outfit, gold farming idiots are scum. They are abusing and raping the game and not even TRYING to blend in. They are a nuisance to everyone.
How can you think yourself as a "better botter" than the others. You're abusing the game and using bots to gain unfair advantage over legit players and that, in my opinion, makes you the same scum. I'd understand this if you were playing the game legit and wanted to get rid of all the bots ruining your game experience but no. Again, to me, you just seem hypocritical and unfair.
Ah, all this time I thought I was being hypocritical by reporting the gold farmer bots. I guess my guilty pleasure may be exposed openly :).
For argument purposes: I think these lvl 3 gold farmers severely effect the perception of botting from Jagex, and legit players. They are the reason that anti botting is implemented. Nobody cares too much about casual bots that don't ruin the game.
[XoL]
2013-03-22 12:51:09
Ironically I also made something like this for myself, but I made it a longggg time ago and for a different purpose (to get moderatorship, back when it was as simple as reporting constantly…good times)

I do understand the thing here but what comes to silk botters for example, what do any of you lose here? I just don't understand. The only thing i could really come up with is that the people botting themselves goldfarm and want to keep the prices up. I think that's wrong.
Emperia
2013-03-22 13:09:48
I think its wrong to report botters when you bot too, even if they're farming on tons of accounts i still dont think its acceptable.
So the real question is are the gold farmers going to create a bot to report bot reporting bots to protect their accounts now?

Do you not think Jagex look for ways to stop the bots after the reports? You report them Jagex is going to investigate the script they was using and probably make it easier for them to detect that script. By running this script you're going to mess up a lot of casual botters lives.
But whatever I suppose, won't fuck my shit up.

Casual botters don't farm gp on accounts that are less than level five. And please don't swear.

Pretty un-fair that anyone who posts what they believe on this thread, just gets de-repped till they edit there post. Or a mod edits the post themselves.

I understand the idea…even salute it… however in pointing out the botters that are indeed "dumb", you also risk pointing out the scripts they are using since the behavior is sorta obvious when you point fingers at a specific group of bots running same skill with same script….which would mean dumb or smart botter alike using that particular script would be more at risk… or at least that is my opinion.

Idk what's better, your script or the butthurt goldfarmers replying to this thread.
And yes if you're just buttong with 9 accounts at the same time cutting yews/buying silk/ … then I think you diserva a ban.
It's those guys that are f-ing up the economy (yes I play legit, I only bot the boring stuff like woodcutting for quest requirements etc.)

Wait..what if jagex hears or sees this script and what it can do. Wouldn't it be easy for them to gather all the account info of those who report centain lvl people? That's like asking for the ban right there..
Saiga
2013-03-26 05:43:19
Love it. I don't think some people are getting the point of this, it's not to ban your average every day botter on their personal account, this is for the Chinese goldfarmers who make 30 accounts members so they can bot 24/7 on 07scape.
Taking into consideration that bots for RS are now much more advanced and easier to use than they were in 2007, it will ruin the genuine "2007" experience as there will be MORE bots doing MORE things. Catherby yews is almost impossible to legit because the trees are all down almost constantly. A majority of the time you just stand there waiting for a tree only for it to be downed almost instantly. I see it as more of a personal attack on the Chinese goldfarming companies, at least that's why I would use this. Anything to prevent them from profiting even a little bit.
One account banned is one more membership they have to buy, possibly losing some logs/gp/other resources that were on it, maybe not even making back the money they spent on the membership to begin with.
All in all, good script with good purpose. Cry some more.

Doesn't matter… You don't have to be sure of it all you need to do is be suspicious in order to report them. It is highly unlikely you will get in trouble for reporting people as bots as "misuse" of the report option as Jagex encourages you to report people for botting if you are suspicious.

Did you intentionally add anti-leech though? I had to change a few things to get it to run successfully. Wasn't hard or anything but I won't say the specifics if it was intentional.

Tbh… it doesn't matter whether or not you're plaguing runescape as a level 3 gold farming scum, or smart botting to train your own stats, at the end of the day you're still fucking BOTTING which is AGAINST the rules of Runescape. It has been like that and always will be like that.

never said that the image was mine, you will find most images posted here by myself and other members are from reddit.
