A 15 year old maxed (on RS3 and nearly maxed OSRS) account just got unbanned after 5 years of being permanently banned, by macroing on OSRS. Are permanent bans not actually permanent? The offence penalty says that the offence has been expired.

It just seemd weird to me because an appeal to fight the ban was never made. Also, the account holds a bank value of ~5B on RS3 and ~140M on OSRS.

Gz my friend, welcome back to the game, just dont bot on account which you arent willing to lose

can i have the 140m osrs?

don't bot on that shit, u lucky af

They'll generally unban accounts if the ban happened 3+ years ago. Just appeal it, no harm done by trying.

Depends on the offence. An account of mine was manual perm banned for account sharing and I can't get it unbanned. The same scenario as yourself, an account I was maxed on rs3 and 1850 total osrs was unbanned in december after being banned from 2015. 

nice, I suspect they go thought periodically and un-ban clean/clear out accounts.

Tried it myself today and got an acoount, which was banned in 2016 for macroing, unbanned. If you have any old account you should try appealing the ban. Nothing to lose.

Nice, now don't bot that account because freshly unbanned accounts are monitored just like fresh level 3s

3-4+ year old bans are insta appeals

Can confirm as well, all my accounts banned several years ago were unbanned without appealing  
Thanks for sharing this
