September 28, 201312 yr Was wondering, does the staff on runescape approach your bot and try talk to you? or what? I'm Doing oak planking bot and im usually on my computer when botting, was wondering if they know your botting without you realizing or they try to talk to you or whatever.
September 28, 201312 yr I have no idea, and I have been wondering this myself. I'm guessing when J-mods play RuneScape, they have a slightly different client. They can probably see things that normal users can't.
September 28, 201312 yr They walk up to you and kick you off the server. and if you log back and and just continue doing what you were doing they ban you for botting that is the truth behind bot detection
September 28, 201312 yr Developer They use manual bans, data mining software to detect behavioural patterns, investigate reported accounts and flag accounts with excessive online time. They also analyze flow of money and flag accounts that have suspicious trading behaviour, i.e. gold farmers trading to mules and vice versa or selling to customers. So in short to avoid those bans: avoid JMods, avoid being reported (cleverbot, world hopping, other cool antiban stuff), use scripts that are not widely used or have a large variety in actions so they end up doing things not in the same sequential manner time after time, use breaks whilst botting, give your account rest every day and cover up your transactions by trading something with at least some value back when you're doing high value trades.

What he said, i'd strongly advise taking his advice.
September 28, 201312 yr Stay away from obvious massban areas (flax, yaks, ect.). Take advantage of the bots built in break feature. Botsmart.
September 29, 201312 yr Basically they follow your pattern. If you do the same thing over and over again they'll kick you and if you continue a ban will follow. You'll most likely get banned faster on those places like flax where everyone bots.
September 29, 201312 yr I can tell you 1 thing, Don't bot @ pest control (alching) I got permed for botting for a few hours..

I'm not too sure about them detecting a bot with excessive play time- if this is definately correct, it would be common knowledge that if u bot past 24 hours- u get banned. Search anywhere and u will always find people have botted 24/7 for weeks. I've botted 85 hours recently non stop and a few times prior to that a few months ago so I should have been flagged and banned. These areas that I botted were areas extremely rarely people go to so I do wonder if its to do with:a) a player reporting u- then they investigate and its displayed how long they have been online for b.) a j mod just stumbles upon u and tests if ur a bot C) oh and it goes on random event failing/ speed that u complete the random according to Advertising other bots isn't allowed. End of the day- if u bot well away from the sight of people- u avoid the possibility of a staff accidentally bumping into u and a player reporting u. Edited September 30, 201312 yr by sub
