wouldcutar Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Long story short, I read that if your account gets hacked and then botted on. You are able to get the account recovered without it being banned. I was just curious to see if there is a way to simulate this? Couldn't I just log onto a new VPN, request a password reset and disable authenticator, then with my main, and start botting? Once it gets banned I could just say i was hacked and the IP address would show up as being somewhere else in the world? (Maybe also using a new device you have not used before to do it in case there is some way to track the mac addresses ect...?)

Juggles Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Doesnt hurt to try. Probably better off using a residential IP though since its actually real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack3145 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Nice idea, but wouldn't gamble my 2 years work main for that. Use semi-main account (noob account) if you have an extra one. It is worth a try! Edited January 29, 2018 by Jack3145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhazzel Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I gave an old account to a friend who ended up getting it banned, i gave it a few months then i recovered it and sent the appeal through to jagex and they told me that the ban's justified, although the botting was all on his ip address etc, and i've only logged in and logged out on that account a few times myself since eoc. Appealed through the website - support>your account>account bans>appeal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawtzRkewl Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I don't see why not! If you make it seem like a hack and react in a way that seems legit then it should work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theorems Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 from my fairly limited experience, playing on your home Ip then stopping and botting it on a proxy is enough to get the ban quashed. Although I'm sure that the authenticator reset and password change would further up your chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alek Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 If you've ever been banned in your life, they tell you that at the end of the day what happens to your account is your responsibility. So when you get hacked, that's on you. Depending on the account and how long you have been a member, they may cut you a break. I wouldn't count on farming this.

talltell Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 In theory yes, that's why a majority of people always bot on proxies now. I heard it's not 100% quash rate though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
