I wouldn't say all wrong, I believe that was a main cause for the implementation of mirror mode? Maybe I don't know what im talking about as well, but from what ive been reading recently I think if im understanding correctly. Depending on the operating system youre using, when you connect to rs's servers it send out some info that they can use to say/prove what client you're on. Idk tho.
However, I will say ive ran a birdhouse bot on the same ip, not mirror moded. 18+ hours for the past 5 days, with other things botted inbetween runs and have had no issue. The acc in question was botted MAYBE 2-3 hours a day, and played manually the same or more.
