Was troubleshooting my bans, figured I'd just hand-do everything to try and rule out a couple problems.

Process consisted of:

1. Hand Registering fresh F2P account
2. Hand Running it through tutorial island
3. Hand training to required stats for method

- Again, all of which was done by hand, on OSBuddy, on my home IP (I've also recently moved into a new house, no chance of crossover).

And I actually got banned for Macroing Major lol, if it was possible to appeal I'd have every grounds for it.

 

Also after that, later on in the day I did some more painstaking registering/tutorial running.

Those accounts have now been banned for Macroing Major and not locked, so I can't assume it's the same problem everyones been having with fresh accs.

 

What am I to make of this lol?

step ur game up or quit the goldfarm life mang

I can sell you some tut island accounts. Friend helped me out with accounts locked. 

Ask on their forums then

Happened to me too way back when I was gold farming lmao

Oh is that the case? (Didn't mean to snap btw). On the other threads I specifically asked if it was locked or banned, since those are two different things. I got answered with locked as in flagged for a hijacking then logging in/checking the problem and being told they're banned.

So I am indeed facing the exact same issue? It's all bans not locks?

Appreciate the help

Yea I get bans now, used to get locks. I believe its pretty much interchangable in terms of the problem at this point (at least when getting off tut island)

From my experience (Had thousands of accounts locked / banned past two weeks), bans and locks are the same thing when it comes to tutorial island detection.

I mean it as in you're obviously not going to go and unlock the accounts so its pretty much like getting banned

What reason/message were you greeted with on this 'lock'?

I understand people have got their workarounds now, but I just need to figure out that I have the same problem first, then I'll cross that bridge.

Same as above ^ What message were you greeted with on these 'locks'?

People are interchaging the term and I'm getting confused, when it's two different things.
