Welcome to college, where everything is subjective and if your prof is tenured, he can do whatever the fuck he wants

Idc if I'm botting or not, it's just the behavior that bothers me. I can understand reporting people for botting, I ain't gonna hate someone for doing that, but this just rattles my cage.

Some tool the other day just followed me around and said "Trade me if you aren't a bot." "I'm going to report you." etc. etc. So freakin' annoying, so I told him to go fuck himself. Not sure if you are supposed to just suck it up and play along with these nerds to prevent bans, because this happens all the time and I just don't see why I should satisfy every 10 year olds demands, unless Jagex doesn't really care if we ignore them or not when they report me, then I'll just carry on my way.

Babysitting is the biggest. I have seen scripts that are AIO 100% working get randomly hung up all the time or stuck, being able to INSTANTLY fix that rather than it sitting there for 30 minutes just tilting the camera back and forth is pretty useful. Human interaction as well, it is probably very easy for Jagex to filter out all the accounts that have played for 8+ hours without a single word of communication in any form. As Swizzbeat said, switching up scripts (and also not botting for 8+ hours straight, taking breaks, etc.). It's really not that complicated.

I got a 2 day ban the other day so it still happens, completely new IP though. Also I've only ever been macro banned once and it was years ago.

What do nigerian princes want with banned accounts?

Heh I know about that, I'm just saying I wasn't banned when I first logged in, then about 5 seconds after I logged in I was DC'd and banned. I heard of this phenomena before and it was described as being "instantly banned", although maybe they didn't understand how it works. I don't know why they would wait until you login to ban you rather than just banning you straight out.

Thanks for the reply. Since you mentioned it, have any good/cheap options to recommend for proxies?

Appealing botting bans is useless. They even stated in their Ban FAQ that botting bans are final and unappealable; they only ban people that "they are 100% sure are bots". Not trying to be a downer, but my old main has been banned for 2 years now for botting and the appeal was never approved/denied, no word, nothing. Read about how much they care here: http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/My_account_is_banned

I mean when you log in and get insta DC-banned, like I said in the first paragraph, someone mentioned it in another thread, I was just curious if anyone could clarify.

I read somewhere in a thread that you should log in the official runescape client the day after botting to prevent an instant ban. I immediately face palmed as after I started using osbot, even when I wasn't botting I would still use the osbot client because I didn't think about it. So my questions are: 1) What are these Instant Bans? Why do they happen? 2) How can you avoid them? If anyone could help me out that would be great. I didn't really know what section of the forums to post this on but whatever.
