@@KZbinCensorship There is nothing productive about gambling. Unless you're a gambling addict, there's no fun in it either. And if you are a gambling addict, log the f*ck off of RuneScape and get some therapy instead. The damage Jagex has done by even allowing it to remain in the game for as long as it has will be a stain on their history so dark and so wide it can never be removed. 50/50 duels, dicing, and trust games has no place in OSRS. I'm one bad conversation with yet another gambling addict away from unironically supporting a nuking of Las Vegas. I'll support any initiative to get rid of it all from OSRS, and if you don't then you're either self hating or a r*tard.

I understand that if these guys get banned they will just keep doing it, but even so Jagex should be banning them faster than they can even sell gold. How do you not detect cheat clients that do 9-way switches every other tick while running and swapping prayers/spells? It might be possible for someone to do a 6-way or 9-way switch tick perfectly once, but 4 or 5 times instantly? That should just be an instant ban.

[@stanime3065]

There are some absurdly skilled pkers that can do these switches frequently though - they can't ban on suspicion, they have to be sure

[@ThatGuy-nv7cx]

@@stanime3065it would probably be pretty easy. Things like a variance in time between clicks and not clicking the exactly same spot every time would pretty clearly differentiate between real players and scripts. I think the most important part is that if jagex started banning these people, it would significantly hinder the willingness of these people to use these scripts. The entire point is to make gp, so risking their entire expensive setup isn’t really feasible. Add that to the fact that it would be hard (or at least expensive) to build or buy a new maxed account (because there’s no gp in rushing low levels) and it would take most of these guys out of the game pretty quick.

I've been playing OSRS since I was a kid, nearly 20 years now and it's gotten to a point where I treat it like a single player game. Over the course of two decades I've been burned by scammers/cheaters enough times where I've come to the conclusion that any interaction with another player is going to end in disaster. I'd like to argue also that I'm not an exceptionally gullible ringnut, I'm fairly savvy but the desperation and dedication of these people to get their hands on video game gold is soo fever pitch that their machinations, schemes and of course out right cheating are sophisticated enough to catch out people even if they have their guard up. I've not enjoyed OSRS as an MMO for nearly ten years because of this.

Technically the prime was edgeville pking/pvp with chaotics I think and ancient statuettes, random pvp drops etc, before the evolution of combat and osrs even came out. However, the prime of osrs I'm not too sure which that would be! Lots of diff updates tbh. I liked the era of pvp worlds being packed full and when revs was multi combat, it was popping then tbh pvp wise!

you know if jagex would just make runelite and their own clients give telemetry based on the machine running it they could just cross that with player history they can see (like who they pked, how much money they got from it) and player reports they can ban all the accounts the cheaters haved logged on to very easily. Yeh there are a few issues such as name swapping in either videos or pics but thats what the cross referencing if for. wouldn't really be any different than having to install easy anticheat for other games. And for those who would say that runelite doesnt have to do what they say? They can just make the official have a cryptokey protection acquired at install for each install and if someone logs without that key they arnt using the official client and gets banned. They CAN ban any platform not theirs. At least if in the US there are laws regarding circumventing technological measures for security and there might be similiar laws in the uk. Will they do it? Don't know but it would make nuking these cheats a bit easier.

Adorable how one of them used an AI voice. They think they're in some kind of gang organization or something. Barking threats when I'm sure most of them haven't been in one real fight in their lives.

Exactly why me and my friends quit a few years ago when all this started. Not worth it. Takes the fun out of the game and a game that’s not fun is about as useful as a chocolate teapot

this state of the game is the sole reason i made an iron, i dont have to care about any1 else but my own. glad they had the brains to make irons an actual game mode cuz the regular game is fucked beyond repairs

[@PLmatiPL]

Trying to get jagex to fix glitch, gl lol. They cannot fix some broken mechanic for 10 years now (ancient mace spec), so multi pking is dead since osrs was relased.

"i have hope jagex will do something eventually" that aged like milk

[@dirtyd1373]

Bro. What they are doing is allowing these bothers to slow down the gambling addicts. How is that not obvious and how is it worse to kill someone with botting, than letting people gamble billions and billions of gp against each other spending their or their parents' hard earned tens of thousands of dollars? Wake up!

[@abrady6740]

They just need to put on a slight delay for gear so it’s as fast as a human clicking. Being able to 1 click a full set of gear should be impossible.

[@Bamblagram]

What do you mean? How many pieces is “humanly possible”?

[@abrady6740]

@@Bamblagram not to hard to have a handful of people manually changing gear and taking an average time delay for each and put it in or at least in on every 3rd or 4th piece.

[@Bamblagram]

@@abrady6740 the problem is it varies and it's one of the few skillful elements in this game. With Anti-Drag, some people can legitimately do 6 way switches instantly. Hell, I bet there are a few that can do 7 way swaps. Others can't even get close. Do we hard cap something just because most people can't do it? It's not really addressing the core problem. Even if your idea is implented, cheaters will continue to have an advantage via insta-prayer reading, insta tele, perfect speccing, etc..

I really enjoy what you're trying to do here and bring light to however no video game is safe. With all the advancements and AI there will be a never ending cold war between anti cheat and cheaters. I kind of pity those people too, they are so bad and so afraid of losing that they are willing to sacrifice all integrity just to get a W. Who wants to be a person like that. Gross....

[@andrehaugvaldstad]

There's a simple solution to this. If possible, permanently ban MAC addresses (device) instead of accounts. If not, permanently bad IP's and disable VPN IP's from being able to play. Sure, some unfair situations would arise every now and then, but eventually you'd have saved so much time on botting bans that it wouldn't be a hassle to individually review those cases.

[@trevorworkman8191]

They need to make a new version of osrs that they have more control over. Use different better codes, and transfer everything over. Don’t change the game just change how the game runs. Is that just me? They can’t stop bots but I feel like other game devs can. Idk just a thought

[@HeroKiller-n8g]

I lost 1.75b back when the magic cape scam was hitting the duel arena. Jagex didn’t even have the decency to reply. It was a bug in their game. It was ultimately their fault and they didn’t do anything about it. Things will never change obviously…
