"Bot Nuke Day" - 10/25/11 - Refer to this thread for ALL discussion on this topic

A London based company taking legal action against an American client. It's an empty threat. The time and money it would cost Jagex to pursue a civil case against another player is much, much greater than they could win from a lawsuit, and even if the terms of the suit was to make the defendant pay for the cost of court, it would be a media nightmare for Jagex.

Ignore this Fey Warrior asshole, he's just full of himself.

They're talking about taking legal action against the bot-makers.

Re-read it.

They've been doing this for a long time, its just became so much more possible with the update thats all.

Im online with my fully botted account in ~100 rankings of thieving with 60m+ exp no ban..lol

edit: cant connect.. Just on the homepage checking if i was banned.

 

What seems to have happened is that Jagex allowed their client to be able to be ran on older versions of Java, they've now changed it so You need the latest Java update for the game to work, it must be something related to the new Java patch, which is funny because it means most of the bot-nuking wasnt even any of their own work.

True, but will they can make their promises happen?

I don't think they would take legal action against a player botting, but maybe the creator of a botting client. That may be sensible

It would be fruitless for them to do so. They'd waste a lot of money finding the creator, and then a lot more money with the international lawsuit. It would garnish bad media for Jagex as well as cost them more money than it is worth. And really, they don't have a solid case either. The intellectual property is the game itself, but the line gets blurry when a person is creating modules for that game.

I don't think Jagex will risk the counter lawsuit of harassment either.

got the new client but i cant connect to their server

 

[waddupscrub]

I laugh at all the scrubs with the egos the size of Jagex botting population (huge).. incompetent little kids. Do you seriously think after 0.00.00 everything is going to upload instantaneously? I my self botted, and really dont care what happens. I'm expecting the worst. I don't think Jagex would stir up all of this commotion just for a little hoax, so prepare for the bans to roll out. Lolz

 

[Dave.RS]

RuneScape loaded up, all they did is add some weird logo when loading.

And now, let's give RSBuddy a couple of minutes to update.

 

[0r0m]

Well I don't remember that loading screen anyway though I'd post.

And to the people bragging about being on right now, with no bans yet. This whole bot nuking exercise is a 3 phase process. Phase 1 is today, which essentially isn't even about banning the bots, its about shutting them down. Phase 2 will be a mass ban, phase 3 is "top secret" according to jagex mods.

 

Wouldn't it be wise to not spam this thread?
