hahah that shit is mental! xD

I guess that's the only reason this game - both RS3 and OSRS - remained after all those years.. i mean, would be that hard for them to implement a efficient anticheat?

osrs is growing. jagex doesnt need the money from botters.

 

Its just not worth it for them to invest more time into creating more botting detection when farmers just replace those accounts in 5 minutes anyways. 

Also hard to find anyone willing to even work for jagex for mediocre pay on an outdated game that gives you little to no transferable expierence

Closed beta with runescape for android at the minute. Player base is surely to grow? And regarding game companys having a lawsuit against you for cheating is stupid at best.

anti-cheat/anti-bot is a very desired transferable experience in the gaming industry. Regardless of which company or which game you worked for, if you could secure a recommendation from your former employ and have stats to back up your impact of your work, it's not a "no transferable experience." Also, it's honestly how well you word your resume or CV but that's a whole different story. One example, you can write that you were a McDonald's cashier for two years or say that you managed financial transactions for a multi-billion dollar company for two years. This is a rather extreme example but you get my point!

They're getting better slowly but surely.

Not lenient nor not because of fortnite or PUBG. Those things are probably on the outskirts of their radar. They just have more important things they have to monitor.

OSRS makes them near nothing compared to RS3. They boast a large amount of whales on there. Everyday you should worry about osrs getting some MTX soon. Probably cosmetic at first. And then...

I highly doubt that.

Osrs probably makes about the same if not more profit than rs3. osrs players are the majority of the playerbase and bonds count as micro transaction.

So every single p2p bot in osrs also counts into their micro transaction revenue.

Now keep in mind there are like 10 times as many people working on rs3 compared to osrs. 

 

Lmao ok bud

What are you going to gain from suing a 14 year old? Aside from horrendous PR going after a kid for cheating in a game.

Are you saying that RS3 people don't use bonds?
