Dab in a Lab

I had restarted my client a few minutes ago, and just gave it a test again right now and it seems to be working again... I was on (3161,3448) and I typed everything in correctly a few times. I don't remember seeing a fire on the tile, but I guess there was since everything else was good.

It spams this as soon as I start it. It was working like 40 min ago. I'm cooking anchovies if that helps https://gyazo.com/f5476f1dbba21a35107a5224b977823a

I always wondered the legitimacy of that. I believed he was trying to scare people off of botting, but now I'm not entirely sure

I was thinking it might be better to get a strong understanding of bans first, but since I’m going to make my own scripts I can just adjust the method as I learn more. I have a minimum amount of knowledge of them now that I can make it work for the meantime.

I’ve actually been looking at the thread recently. The client launcher connected with a database is really impressive, and I wanna make something like it, but I don’t have the coding experience to pull off something like that right now. For now I’m planning on making a bit of a simpler method using text files since I should be able to learn how to do that faster and then try to learn how to make a launcher like that.

I honestly believed a flagged IP was a myth/scare tactic to get people to buy proxies and shit, but you'll definitely know when it happens. I was botting 7-10 accounts on the same ip at a time for a few months and would get them all banned everyday and nothing happened. I tried using a simple iron miner one day since I was lazy and didn't wanna prep and transfer/buy as many materials as the method I was botting needed, and by the end of the day I had my mules and main banned. Ever since then my account can't last longer than an hour of botting, and if I bot anything at all, like a fletcher, fisher, chopper, spalsher, etc... for even just 10 minutes; the account will be banned within a couple hours. Even just spending a couple minutes testing a bug in my script will get me banned.

Just wanna give a heads up that I probably wouldn't test the ban rates for a little while since I wanna think of and make a good f2p farm since my members ones were kinda ehh and never automated... and since the price of bonds shot up so much, it cut a huge profit into it. So once I make my script and got a steady automated system going, I'm definitely interested in testing it too. I'll let you know when I start if you'd still like to help when the time comes. I think a lot of people are quiet about their ban discoveries since it gives them an edge in their farming. The less people that are knowledgeable about bans, the less competition for gold. If I discovered the secret of prolonging my account life by a significant amount, or avoid a ban all together, I honestly don't think I would make it public. In this case though the ban testing would be would just be more of an interesting discovery a lot of people might like to know. If the evidence supports it ofc.

Sign me up. Thanks for the giveaway

If I wanted to be statistically significant, I would have to have at least 30 samples, but I don't have the patience for that atm. Maybe in the future. I just wanted to make a discussion about the possibility of it, but all that came out of it was repetitive "flagged ip idiot" posts which I had already addressed in the main post. I'd like to get some sort of automated farm set up before I really dive into testing bans. I need to spend 2+ hours per an account which will take up some time. When I get to the testing, I may start a ban journal thread about the client usage ban rates.

Everyone was quick to judge that my flagged IP was the sole reason I got banned, but I just proved otherwise. There's obviously other factors that go into it than just a flagged IP, which still leads me to believe that Jagex could potentially monitor client usage from a flagged IP.

Account has now lasted 24x longer than my previous account. The only difference being the client I played on... Any of you self-appointed ban experts in this thread wanna explain this one?

For those that are interested, this new account I made using the official client is about as old the account that got banned playing legit on the osbot client. I'll keep it up and see what happens though

Na I was like nine. It honestly wasn't too bad of a game back when it started. Its very similar to comparing RS3 and OSRS

I was just a kid, don't judge too harshly for my bad taste. Gave me a good laugh

Jagex is so thoughtful When I was a kid in middle school I use to hack/bot on Maplestory and got an IP ban, and I got my sister locked out from the game too

I originally thought the ipban list would be pretty efficient way to prevent bots being made from a flagged ip, but I don't understand why they would still allow me to create account and access the game anyways. Other games would just blacklist you and not let you play. Thats why I wanted to start this discussion. I think Jagex still allows flagged botters to play the game as long as they are doing it legit, and to ensure they are actually legit, they check the client the flagged ip is running.

Wouldn't it use a lot of resources to monitor every single users client that logs in though? If they keep their monitoring down to just flagged ips, they can "keep" regular botters off the game

Fair enough. I just completed tutorial island using the official client. There's no way for me to prove that I only used the osbot client, but I actually did. I've gotten banned 200+ times easily on my home ip, but I got flagged when I tried out an iron ore miner

My whole point was that I wasn't botting at all. According to the people that replied, Ill get banned playing regardless of the client I use... I just installed the official osrs client and I'm going to make another new account and do the same thing and see what happens. I personally doubt I'll be banned

If I were to do the exact same thing on the official osrs client, would I still get banned?

Its the fact I got banned without running a single script on the account... But I'm not gonna spell out every little thing for you. Give it a read next time ?

Oh if only you could read

If you took a minute to read my post, thats exactly what I stated...

My ip was flagged a few weeks ago, and I would get banned after ~15min of botting while testing bugs in my script. I used a proxy after that and was able to bot 2-3 days with no breaks before getting a ban. My proxy expired last night and I made a brand new account this morning without one. I don't have any osrs clients installed other than Osbot, so I just played on that. I manually did tutorial island and some moneymakers to get some gp to test my script again, since I don't have any accounts anymore, and after 2 or 3 hours of buying random shit in different stores, I got hit with a perm ban. I'm not saying Jagex is constantly monitoring what clients people use, but since my ip is flagged, maybe they were keeping an eye on my client usage?

Cause I'm a broke ass bitch. Appreciate the giveaway @Burundanga
