RoomScape Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I know they flag IPs and they stay flagged for a while - reused VPN's and proxies are still flagged - but does Jagex ever unflag an IP? I would hope so, after a certain amount of time, but I've never heard anyone say their flagged IP has been unflagged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnerowns Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) How can you even tell if your IP has been flagged? Edited August 5, 2014 by winnerowns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shankfish Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 How can you even tell if your IP has been flagged? If you are constantly banned on the same IP in a very short amount of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theov Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 No.. They don't Jagex have always tried to ban the botters so why on earth would they give them another chance by unflagging their IP.. but as well as we not knowing when we get out ip flagged, we wouldnt know when our ip has been unflagged 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They email you to notify your IP has been unflagged.. If you are constantly banned on the same IP in a very short amount of time This could happen to anyone flagged or unflagged. My own experience was that I got at least 5+ mule botting accounts permed within 1 month of botting. And even after this I have been botting on my main without any problem so far. Maybe its because I had my main since 2007 and all them mule accounts were new and i used bonds for membership. I have a recurring membership on my main with a credit card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botre Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I don't think flags are entirely removed, but each one of them probably has a severity level attributed to them which decreases over time. IP flagging is kind of a joke though, so many workarounds :p Also, I wouldn't be surprised if they put a unique ID in each downloaded cache. And when an account gets busted the cache ID it logged in from would get flagged, as would any other account logging in from the now flagged cache ID. But again, this could easily be circumvented by deleting the cache every time you get banned. Just speculation of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Maybe the whole thing in the first place is untrue, and they don't flag IPs. I think it's stupid to definitely act like you know the system of JaGex, because they've supposedly flagged botters IP for years but it's now working? I really doubt that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's stupid to definitely act like you know the system of JaGex, because they've supposedly flagged botters IP for years but it's now working? I really doubt that To be able to flag IPs you first need to be able to detect macros accurately, which took a while. I agree that this is all speculation though. They do track your IP activity however, try making too many new accounts in a certain time frame for example, at a certain moment you will not be able to anymore.

RoomScape Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 I thought that maybe if you haven't used an IP in a while that Jagex will unflag it thinking you aren't botting on that IP anymore. Obviously they won't if they keep having bans relating to that IP, but if the IP goes inactive, wouldn't they have a reason to unflag it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasa Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I highly doubt it. If it gets flagged, it was flagged for a reason. There's no reason they'd want to unflag them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoomScape Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 I highly doubt it. If it gets flagged, it was flagged for a reason. There's no reason they'd want to unflag them. So if an IP is flagged for three years without any activity, it would remain flagged? I don't think flags are entirely removed, but each one of them probably has a severity level attributed to them which decreases over time. IP flagging is kind of a joke though, so many workarounds :p Also, I wouldn't be surprised if they put a unique ID in each downloaded cache.
