After OSRS house hosts got exposed last year they've had to turn to new methods to gold farm. Bot farms are the new form of hosting, and they don't sleep. These RuneScape Botters are on 24/7 farming millions of GP.

IMPORTANT! 9/20: I just received a "privacy violation" on this video. KZbin will be reviewing it within the next 24 to 48 hours to see if its valid. If its valid the video will be taken down/restricted. I've gone through and blurred the usernames of everyone in the video. I don't know who sent the request. Hopefully KZbin will see there's no violation here. Usernames in a video game that cannot identify anyone in real life are not private information. 9/26: No follow up email from KZbin but the video is still up! Going to ask KZbin if I can remove the blurs.

[@beemotd1004]

Lol damn

[@SkepNick]

Yeah... that's just the law you're right. They shouldn't consider that leaking private information because it's not. Its public. Nor is it slander, because you would have to have a human attached to the slander for it to work. Or... *workless* ;)

These three are still active today and still behaving suspiciously. They have auto-typers outside the PoH advertising their homes AND social media links- even TikTok accounts. I joined their clan chat and it was dead silent. When I told people they weren't speaking at all and could be a bot they immediately shot back with "I've been talking the entire time." -which wasn't true. They seem to now be aware people suspect them but sadly they still get away with this every day.

I was running into a lot of bots that would crash me at Blast Mine. It was most likely the same script cuz none of them checked/hopped if the spot was already taken. I could get them stuck for a short while if I just mined the whole wall, but that gets old. I tried killing one of them because the script ain’t great and will only run away if they were the ones who lit the dynamite. This was to no avail cuz they’re scripted to bank for food. I’m sure I could have killed some if I really tried, but I wanted 99 mining already and just reported them and hopped.

[@cIeetz]

Its not even so much of just "logging back into their client and logging them back in" . When an update happens, the actual bot client has to be updated at the source (the person who owns the bot program that people use has to patch it) to accommodate it for the update. You cant just restart ur script after an update, it takes anywhere from 30 mins to a couple hours for the update to be patched.

I've seen all these people as I frequent world 330. I was just thinking the other day it was odd that at least one of them is always on early in the morning and or late at night every single day.

[@MGX93dot]

Why is that odd for the times? Are you not aware time zones exist? There's also people like me who work nights. Not defending these people as they do seem to be botting, I just don't agree with your reasoning.

[@CardinalSinOfCake]

"Day One: 72 Hours Remain" So much nostalgia and so funny at the same time 😂

[@pastafarian6434]

I used to host alot, and it was fun id make friends with the other host(im really hi, Pinkberg) and meet new people to play with when I wasnt hosting. But now it seems that hosting really is all about the money. Dont get me wrong I could make more money hosting then i would doing anything else in the game but sometimes it was nice sitting back and conversating with others. In these bot houses theres really none of that interaction. Hope the community comes to there sense and support the real hosts that take the time to make your experience leveling prayer better.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Those probably aren't bots, they are somebody using a macro recorder. You wouldn't make a bot like something like that because you can accomplsh it very easily with a macro recorder running on a loop. You could automate the incense filling very easily without installing any botting software. They are probably using a general macroing tool like JitBit Macro recorder. Its a tool used for macros in general, repeating mouseclicks and keyboard movements on a loop. I made a tutorial about it a year or two ago because I used JitBit macros for eccommerse and data scraping. But then craploads of people watched it so they could make simple macros in runescape. I had no idea about the macro/botting scene in osrs at the time of making the video. Beleive it or not you could make a macro that autofills incense every x seconds and add some randomization to it and making that macro would take you about 2 minutes if you knew what you were doing. They are very very very fast to make. Heres a basic summary of how general macro software works if you are interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaSaZayDpquXoaM

[@eurosonly]

Host A is familiar. I see him hosting 18 hours a day for weeks on end. He never talks when you ask him a question unlike a legitimate player host who always respond unless they're swarmed with messages.

[@Zerowner]

TFW you literally recognize the house/host in the video (well, the first). I even have Workless on my friends list (funny they didn't have their Rocky out in any of the clips (jk there it is at 6:12)). World 330 has been my 6 month old main account's best friend. If memory serves right, is house 2 JohnoX or something? Anyways, I use workless's house the most, and its clear that several of these hosts are on for over 12 hours a day, every single day. Its pretty obvious that they have scripts running in order to stay logged in, and alt accounts set up to run their burners. The odds that this isn't the case is insanely slim. The really interesting thing is that workless has been online significantly less consistently recently, which I can track via my friends list. I wonder what changed for them that they wouldn't be online as often as they were before. Any ideas? Cool video, would love to see an update. Oh, and its really interesting you didn't mention the other botting happening in the house- mainly the teleport tab bots that are stacked in the dozens on these houses' altars. I suppose you can't connect them with the hosts for sure, but it is interesting to know what a hotspot for botting world 330 is.
