I actually love the bots. They make getting certain items in large bulk so much easier because they do all the hard work for us. If it was for them, a lot of tasks/quest/skills/etc would be extremely boring, long, and hard to do.

The developers do in fact ban them, but the second they ban them a million more (so to speak) show up. It's a never ending battle. Just report and move on, they're not causing you any harm to be honest.

because people keep funding them by buying black market gp

Enjoy em.

Jamex would go broke if they had to ban bots, also players in-game wouldnt be so spectacular at the end if they did.

So they are left in peace, flooding boss drops, top hiscoring and eventually kill you in some pvp activity. :D

It's a bit of a dual edged sword with the bots. On the one hand, having new players like yourself come into the game and see a bunch of bots is off-putting, confusing, and potentially damaging to the long term health of the game. Bots at places like bosses devalue the hard work and skill that real players utilize to get the rare drops from these places.

But on the other hand, before bots became as commonplace in this game, the average player had an incredibly difficult time getting a lot of resources that no one in their right mind would spend time collecting. Everything from vegetables in standing patches, flax, basic, low-level resources like copper, standard logs, shrimp, etc. was never in good supply, because your average player selling them could never ask for a high enough price to justify the time spent gathering that ♥♥♥♥ and your average player buying them would balk at paying ♥♥♥♥ tons of money for low level crap. Having bots farm that stuff is good for the average player since otherwise they were either have to play like an iron and get all their own stuff and a lot of entry level players would burn out.

Ultimately it has to be a balancing act between having the game overrun with bots and having it be too hard for the average player to train skills early on.

The way Jagex has been focusing on bots recently is trying to make it so the bots don't flood low level intro areas like Lumbridge so new players get some experience with the game and understand a little better why they exist by the time they encounter them en-masse. I think its a good strategy so long as it doesn't prevent the supplies of low level consumables from staying high.

I can't even go to the Grand Exchange and got a small mute on my account for calling it out.


Its just sad, DEI.

this has absolutely nothing to do with DEI and if you're against it you're playing the wrong game and should just quit now.

Hopefully jagex is bigger then EA.

Worlds slowly waking up.

Got to love the badge of honor.

Makes you stand out like sore thumbs.

its 2025 guys, no one wants to grind or do the hard endurance kind of works, this is a different age now its the technological age. Being an og player since 2007 i do also get nostalgic of old times but yall need to move on, bots serve a purpose now.

Wouldnt surprise me if jagex had a tonne of bots going on themselves
