Looks like they are taking a swing at resolving the issue. Interested in seeing how it ends up playing out

*Damns kid get off my lawn* *waves cane* I'm heading off for my retirement gents. It's been fun, it's been real. I might come back one day but for now I must wish you all adieu. Obligatory farewell statement. I joined this community back in December while I was trifling through all the various botting communities Runescape 07 had to offer and out of them all I think I felt most at home here. As time marched on as it always does, I found myself utilizing more and more time on OSBot engaging in the forums and with the community. Being a steady watcher in the disputes section, just watching from the sidelines as legends came and went. Even though 7 months is a very short time, it wasn't long before good ol' fashion nostalgia started setting in. Seeing all the staff who came and went, seeing all the community members come and go, it starts taking a toll on you especially when so many are considered friends. In one sense, it almost like watching the world pass you by. Then compounded with everything I have going on in real life, I just don't have the time nor the desire to sit around and watch all the ego stroking back slapping circle jerk behavior thar runs rampant on some of the various groups here. In August we break ground for a 2nd location for expanding my business in an oil boom town in west texas, which has been taxing more and more of my time as we get closer. This was quite an experience to say the least, and by no means is this goodbye forever. Many of you have me added on Skype and you will be able to still communicate there. Somewhere I am going to continue logging all my hard/elite clues upon completion because for some small reason (maybe its the gambler inside of me) I do still get a sense of excitement when solving clues. I'm not one for line item goodbyes, where I single out everyone who I ever met, my friends know their my friends and well my not-friends know their not-friends haha. My adventure had brought me here to OSBot, and I am glad we had the chance to meet, I rarely ever had any negative experiences here, but now my adventure takes me elsewhere and the sense of adventure I have within me re-ignites, I look forward to where my next one takes me, and I hope our paths cross again old sports. Happy trails travelers, Timekeeper

Ah the old "I can read his post and tell if he is drunk" trick...aight Well you're probably soberish by now but... How many wood chucks would a wood chuck chuck if a would chuck could chuck wood

Ill leave it up to what you think looks best

Yuh

Mod needs to clean up this peasant bullshit

Want it to have a glare that looks more smooth than the one I am currently rocking, and more badass looking if anyone is interested

Prob a 4

Dawww your poor sensitivities

But...but...why?

In my entire life, other than when I bought them to give to people on osbot, I never heard of anyone ever getting a pizza hut giftcard lol

What? Why would they not just use money to directly buy gold? Unless you're hoping people are sitting around with pizza hut gift cards I guess

No one forced you not to have a monthly charge lol. A t-bot is different. You pay to use the client, then get access to loads of free scripts that are normally premium here. This, is paying a high price, every month, to use a single script. I would rather pay for the client and have it regular than pay per month, per script.

ITT: Few scripters getting confused on who their customer base is. It's 13-17 year olds for the majority. Not many of them have ways to pay of reoccuring charges. Not rewarding? Then make more scripts. The burden of profitability was just shifted from scripter whose job it was to make a high quality script, to the customer who gets to hope and pray the script they purchase is worth a fuck. The one upside is atleast after you get use to this new income, it can be shut the fuck off when your script goes to shit and you stop updating it so yay?

Did you calculate your wage based on the sale of a single script or on income thus far lmao? Either way you're selling a product so time invested doesn't matter. We are buying a product, and tbh, your product isn't worth the expense as your net income is about to show you. Same for example. If it was a cooking script but had a $1 month fee just for maintence or some bullshit that's fine whatever. But some of the month fees are fucking higher than the script itself lmao, so it's literally like you're rebuying the script every month. I understand why the decision was made, but it's being abused and it's going to hurt the client, the customer, and the scripter in the long run. I am a firm believer in instancing and think that is what should be done here. Many scripters are taking advantage of the new system to try and cash in.

The other ones I use are by far cheaper lol. But you're right, instancing is the way to resolve this problem.

Ha...Haha. I own an actual work place. I actually understand quite well how the real world works child. I have to pay a monthly income tax that I guarentee is more than your year income. The implication here is no one pays those MRSP fees. Those are a marketing tool, if you contact adobe to buy their product, there are about 10 different ways to get it for half the cost. Also no one gets fined. You think there are people going around checking your keys and making sure they check out? Lol please. And just because I have extra money to blow, doesn't mean I need to keep my mouth shut about a blatant money grab.

Seemingly. Like I stated in the OP, I am not against month subscriptions. There are some scripts due to their complexity deserve monthly fees (NMZ, Slayer, Farming, AIO runecrafting and so forth) But paying a monthly fee for a druid killer? For a power miner? For a fuckin cooking script? No thanks And you have to thank, if they refuse to pay for it, which many will, what are they going to do instead? They are going to go to another client.

Interesting no other botting community has to rape the community in favor of scripters in order to churn out a higher quality script.

The implication here is that every single person who buys a script needs to start a bot farm to compensate for the expense of the script. I personall purchased several premiums and not a single one was ever used for gold farming. By the way, linking MRSP and acting like there is anyone in the world who pays that is ridiculous, furthermore most of the software you linked are multi-million dollar companies with teams for R & D

This is actually addressed in the original post, so thanks for the spam.

So obviously every single script is now a monthly charge, which I am pretty sure no botting community has done before. I don't know about anyone else but for the most part, that is an incredibly strong deterrent for me. $8 a month for a druid killer? Lol. Not advertising, but I have a full slayer script on another client for 2 months of that price. I haven't personally ran OSBot in around 2 months, but this is just a ridiculous money grab. I understand there are some scripts that do deserve to be a monthly charge, but for all of them to be? No thanks. No one is forcing me to buy anything (Which is why I am not buying anything) But me, as probably the most financially secure member on this website, I won't purchase a single script, and I can only imagine if I refuse to, how many others also agree. This is just going to blatantly end up sending users to the competition.

Looks like ol' alek is getting replaced
