S7ewie Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Hello, newbie here recently decided to return to RuneScape after what.. 15+ years? Seems crazy it was that long ago. Amazingly I still have access to my old character but as with everyone else it’s obviously been forced onto the new RS3 and I just don’t recognise anything haha. Give me OSRS any day! So I’ve been forced to start again with OSRS which I don’t mind. I was always against Botting when I was younger but I’ve done my share of grinding and I figure I’m entitled to a little help to get me started again haha. Just wondering if anyone can give me any tips to get started? So far I’ve been playing with a premium mining, woodcutting and fishing script and they’ve been working pretty flawlessly. I’ve been doing a lot of questing and my own manual grinding in between however. It seems though that a lot of people still get caught. Is that mostly down to being flagged by other players or is it automatic systems? Are you more likely to get caught using something fairly interaction heavy like a combat or agility script compared to something that covers fairly automatic processes anyway like fishing and woodcutting? And if bans are so frequent then what’s the real goal? Just see how far you can get before you get banned and you have to start all over again? Just curious haha Thanks S7ewie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bot on account you are willing to lose. The Ban wave has increased steadily for the past few months, so if your going to test out a few things for your treasured accounts sake please use an ALT that you don't care about losing. Also might I suggest buying VIP and using Mirror Mode with Osbuddy? Also Welcome to OsBot Edited September 17, 2018 by Knuckolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S7ewie Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Thank you I don’t really care if I loose this one, it was lvl 3 yesterday haha. But if people don’t bot on account they care about what is the actual point of it? I was considering VIP anyway. What is mirror mode?

Some people make accounts with the intention of botting them. When one of those get banned, it doesn't feel as bad as if you had levelled that account up by hand for so long.

That’s like building a house, knowing that it’s going to fall down again. Do people just do it because they enjoy watching the scripts run?

You never know for sure when you'll get banned or if you'll get banned. Yeah the chances are pretty high, but you still have a slim chance to go unnoticed.

Thanks. I didn’t think gold farming was viable because of the trade limit.. then I realised that that was removed in an update 7 years ago .. that shows how long it’s been since I last played haha. So do people mainly bot for gold farming then? I think I’m going to stop botting this character, hope that he’s survived a ban and maybe bot a second. What’s the safest way to do that? Are VPNs the way to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are VPNs the way to go? Just search around in the botting & bans subforum and a few others. I'm sure you'll be able to answer questions through your own research.
