Smart Botting For Dummies.

I noticed sites like Rsbot.org, Rsbots.net, Codespace.net, all the websites that you can download and buy bots from have a set of techniques and methods but i haven't seen one on Sythe so I'm going to help out.

Why should you bot.

- Help you gain extra EXP or levels.
- Trains you while you're at school/sleeping/whenever you're not at the computer.
- Bot for others.
- Impress others with skills.

Why you shouldn't bot.

- Obvious reason, it goes against the rules and conducts of Runescape.
- You're account can be temporarily or permanently banned if caught.
- It IS cheating, so friends who don't may think lower of you.
- It makes you forget that you play the game for fun, not to cheat.
- You get bored quick once you've been banned/there's nothing to do.

That's just a few pro's and con's of botting. They've happened to me and I know it has for others too.

A brief historical review...

Botting first came out in Rsc, where people auto mined. They were simple scripts written to color-coordinate ores to mine. Called "AutoRune". Long story short, Runescape came out with Runescape 2 (Modern runescape) and "random events". These random events were to stop people from botting, and catching those that were. Later on SCAR came out, which totally re-introduced botting to many Runescape players. Scar was fucked around with by Jagex and by now not many use it, even though it's still very effective on Runescape. iBot came out, which was made from Aryan. Then Rsbot came out some odd years later built off iBot and once again, revolutionized botting. Now hundreds of thousands of players use Rsbot, and the branched off bots like "Rsbots, Codespace, Seedbot, qBot" and many more. (Credits to tofurocks).

Now here's the real part; techniques to ensure safety while botting.

1. I know you all bot overnight, during school, for 6hrs+ at a time. But you must learn to resist it. Not only are you jeopardizing your account, you will soon realize that you no longer like Runescape for the game, but only to bot. Trust me it's happened to me many times. You'll stop botting, maybe because you've been banned on another account or just because you stopped and you realize "Why am i playing legit, i should just bot". Remember, Runescape is a game that you play because you enjoy it. So basically, cut down on the botting for 1-4 hours a day max. It'll keep you interested to keep playing the game and you're less likely to get banned.

2. Think about you're decision botting! Think like Jagex does. If you're account is flagged for macroing and Jagex looks at the time you've been on, not to mention your mouse and keystroke logs, you'll most likely been banned. Lets say you wake up. It's 7am and you go on to check the G.e, skill, whatever from 7-8 while you eat breakfast or get ready for school. Then you leave at 8AM and bot all day at school. (ex. 6hr school day). So now you're home at... 2:30. And you shut off your bot. Now you do homework while you bot. Now it's 4pm. You go on to play legit. Now it's 6PM and you're eating dinner. After you go out with some friends until... maybe 9PM. You come home and watch tv, and you bot, or after you watch tv and go to sleep, you bot overnight. Wake up the next morning at 7AM. If you get flagged during that time you botted, which isn't hard because you were on for so long. (Approx. 16-18 hours in a 24hr cycle). And they see it was all day and all night you botted, and then repeated the next day, they can tell you botted because no normal human can stay awake that long, sleep for 6 hours, and play Runescape again for 18 more hours. They'll also see your keystrokes and mouse logs and notice how accurate your clicking was, and the patterns your mouse makes. So basically, cut down on the botting, or take long pauses botting. If you're going to bot overnight or at school, do it every other or every few days so it's not the same pattern of botting every day.

3. Choose different scripts! This isn't hard to understand. If you use the same script.. for example to mine iron at the east Varrock mine, you have a good chance of getting banned if flagged. If you switch up, and maybe use 2-4 different scripts for the same skill, or choose a different location, it looks a lot better and more human like.

4. Buy scripts! Buying scripts is a very smart thing to do. I know nobody wants to spend money but think about it like; Lets say 55,000 people are using a free hunter script. Maybe they're not all using it at once but they've used it. Jagex can pickup on the same patterns from different accounts and they'll notice that you have the same mouse patterns of other people that have been banned already. That'll get you banned. Now lets say you buy a hunter script for $25. Lets say there's been 1,000 copies of this script sold. These script are very well written and I've almost never heard of anyone being banned for using paid. (But there are some). Not only are they written VERY well, Jagex also will most likely not run into someone with the same keystrokes not only because the scripts use random mouse movements for every movement, but there are alot less people using these script. So buy scripts, it's worth it not only because of the amazing coding but because of the less likely hood of being banned.

5. Anti ban. I personally, only use paid for scripts which have a build in anti ban. Alot of scripts now have anti-ban because of the increased Jagex security. Anti-ban are measures taken while botting to help in anyway for you to not be banned. Normally it's something like checking how much exp you have in the stat you're training or rotating the camera. They're alot of other anti-ban scripts you can add yourself if you use for example Rsbot. It's prevention from getting you banned and does make a difference. Make sure you keep it on if you're using Rsbot or any bot that you can turn it off/on.

I'm pretty sure those 5 practices and techniques are the biggest measure you can take while botting. If anyone has anymore, please post them here or add my msn which can be found in my signature and i'll add them to the post.

If you'd like any help with setting up bots, JDK help, scripts, i can most likely help you. Just send me a pm or add my msn.​

 

Very good; quite a bit of it is common sense, but quite a few people don't have much of it

 

Thank you very much. I tried to give the most detail with examples.

 

Nice Guide, Detailed, But mabye you should have listed some guidelines on the GOOD way to bot. Overall Good Guide.

Thanks

 

Very nice. I never thought about the number of people using the same script being an issue until now.

To your comment about the game being about fun: Skilling isn't fun, so why not bot our skills/cash up and then have fun without having to work for it? That's how I look at it, haha. For example.. I can bot using AutoFlaxer Pro and make a nice bit of cash, and then take that cash to buy PvP gear and PK. Picking Flax isn't fun, but PK'ing is. So we skip the work and go straight to the fun part, lol.

Anyways, like I said nice guide.

 

Yeah i ment like.. I used to auto wc EVERY day, and EVERY night... got like 90 wc real fast but then i tried to legit wc.. and it was too boring knowing i can just bot.

 

Aryan revolutionized botting, then iBot ripped it off, and then RSBot ripped iBot off with different methods. You said that iBot ripped off RSBot. You're incredibly wrong.
And by the way, SCAR came after AutoRune, hence the name "Shit Compared to Auto-Rune".
Good attempt though, 3/10.

 

Thanks, i'll update my guide and give you credits.

 

I probably missed some stuff, someone like Jimmy would probably know more.

 

I iz no are dummie?

 

Damn straight!

AutoRune wasn't a color clicker, it was a packet bot, far more powerful then anything today. SCAR was originally around in RSC (it was made prior to RS2). You missed Aryan, Arga, and AresBot (both rsbot and iBot take some things from AresBot). SeedBot has nothing to do with rsbot (SeedBot was a reflection bot that was never fully finished iirc), and both CodeSpace + RSBots are simply iBot. They aren't "leeched", they are merely iBot, but the bot is bound to a single script. QBot was a reflection bot coded in C++ (iirc) that got its data from injecting into the ********* process (it was never finished).

 

Why cuss babe?

 

Haha alright thanks, but the main focus of this thread is for the techniques and helpful hints, not the history of Runescape's macro abuse.

 

You should add like botting is like drugs, you can never stop doing it if you once started. And if you have paid for it you want to use it . D:

 

Nice little guide/tips I suppose.

You're wrong on a lot about your historical review about bots though lawl. SCAR has been out way before RS2, and is still VERY effective, but people don't use it because you can't minimize it etc. Also people didn't only automine in RSC lawl, there were/are bots for every skill. There's other stuff but I don't feel like pointing it out because I'll probably just sound like an asshat lawl.

 

You can minimize SCAR....

 

Not while it's running.. it isn't a client. For you to be able to run scripts you have to have your Runescape window on top.

 

nice guide it helped me a bit

 

Nice little guide, should be sticked on sythe.

 

This is true haha but i guess for some the fun part is being stronger than playing in the game such as questing itd be so much easier than wasting countless hours training to kill some monster or get a certain strength or mage level when most have better things to do but then on the downfall the point of the game is to devolp
