poptartjake Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Complete speculation, but it's one of the few things that the majority of my accounts share. The accounts can be completely different, made at different times, and doing different tasks, yet all of them with the same payment info get banned. I need to do some independent testing to see if there really is any water to this theory. As a single example, I made an account last week with my PayPal instead of my CC and it has NOT been banned yet. It has been using the same botting schedule and script as previous accounts that were banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Are you saying the accounts don't share the same IP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) @poptartjake That is interesting. I've always had a theory that Jagex is more lenient on accounts that pay for their membership directly as opposed to bonds. It seems weird from a financial perspective that they would chain ban accounts linked to a payment method. Maybe they figured out your free membership scheme?

bexxe Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) Might be a small advice, don't ever use payment info or buy from Fagex, even abusing the free membership. Might be wrong to share, but make an lvl 3 account and don't even login every week or so. Buy OSRS gp for 0,80 euro/m and just trade over when you need to buy a bond, if you didn't know, this is much cheaper LOL... Trading less then astonishing amounts won't trigger bot detection, and since it'seven cheaper then buying bonds via Fagex (again, card information or anything related to you; known hardcore botter and it's the same payment info?; would not be supprised they know you by name, just entering personal information and using the free trail!) Make sure you don't bot on the "cash account" and ... profit? doing this long enough you'll be able to provide a bond for each bot account. Which you all the best and curious of the outcome man! Edit: Might be completely wrong, maybe i'm a dumbass, so I'm happy to receive any feedback or better ideas? Bult the community boisss Edit; to @ozeki6... if you don't understand what I mean, burh. Buying cheap OSRS gold and then buying bond in ge is much cheaper than buying bond from Jagex. Also, buying bonds from Fagex is a risk due to the fact that the know your payment method, name, IP you bought it on etc... (many, many more details, you don't know dudeee) Edited March 26, 2019 by bexxe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zwaffel Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) Maybe they inspect accounts that take advantage of the free membership more ? Edited March 27, 2019 by zwaffel spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
