Peter Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 This is the reason why Maxi/Laz introduced SDN testers, if they think it's worth enough to be a premium they'll put it up in the premium no need for trail, it can be abused by creating new accounts. Which is why a lot of premium scripts are reportedly broken, very buggy, or just don't work. SDN Tester is introduced but the developers haven't worked on SDN Tester functions as yet.
QBots Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 As a workaround you can just setup a database elsewhere that keeps track of osbot usernames and the amount of time they have run the script.
Diclonius Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 I don't support this. It will just be abused by people creating lots of accounts.
Cory Posted August 11, 2013 Author Posted August 11, 2013 I don't support this. It will just be abused by people creating lots of accounts. Obviously this would be taken the into consideration... we plant the seed for the suggestions and the staff develop them further... Such things as adding post count requirements and been registered for a certain amount of time etc.
Kittens Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 support! I wouldn't of bought my wildy looting script if I knew it was that bad So go to payment issues and request for a refund?
XavierM Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 I don't support this. It will just be abused by people creating lots of accounts. Osbot username+Runescape display name can be checked so what you said wouldnt matter, unless someone wants to create 20 osbot accounts and 20 rs accounts to test a script for 20 hours. 2
Diclonius Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 If it can be implemented in a way that won't get abused then I think it's a good idea.

Good call, this would be a flawless way of making this un-abusable, maybe they could make you input the character name you want to test the script on, and if you have testing time left, an admin can change the name under certain circumstances.
Lukitas999 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Indeed I'm supporting this cause, as we can try the product before buying it hence the client reviews.
evan69 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 support. makes sense you get a free trial to something you're gonna buy. however you can find out how the script runs by looking at the comments usually.
Aidden Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Its a good idea except it would need to be based on something other than just the forum account, perhaps ip too. Because a user could abuse this system by making multiple forum accounts to keep getting trials.

Wizard Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) Just set a timer to like 10000 seconds, and once it hits that, stop();. OT: support Edited August 12, 2013 by Gandalf
