ploober Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Have you experienced more bans since the update? (and is it obvious if the new "UUID" stuff is having an effect/is it too early to tell?) Has anyone done enough testing with Jagex accounts to tell if there is a higher ban rate/more consistent/chain bans? What effects do you think this update will have in the short and long term on botting. Do you expect Jagex to start banning based on HWID/IP's and other identifiers more often? I've been discussing this update with people across a lot of communities. Personally I'm not 100% sure if any of these changes will make much of a difference, except the Jagex Account change. Once we all run out of old version accounts - which admittedly could take a long time - spamming accounts for botting/selling will likely be impacted, until people automate email sign ups and even then I think the amount of bots that can be produced per day is still going to go down. So far (like some other topics) I've seen basically a 50/50 split, some people say they are experiencing more bans, others say it's a "skill issue". Some people think botting is over, other people think nothing is going to change. What do you think?

Larsen Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 The "skill issue" is true. When I first started botting, I got banned daily Now its been a while.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khaleesi Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 No changes as far as I can see, The UUID drama is completely overrated by some other client devs that have no idea what they are watching if you ask me Thankfully our OSBot devs are more capable! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrapovic Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Well, I just got back to botting. I logged into my old account with only 79 mining. I botted yesterday for about 7 hours and this morning I tried logging in and it got banned. I was using Czar scripts which are amazing in general. I was botting on F2P but the ban came so soon that I moved back to a mouse recorder with random delays and random pixel clicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
