3.
Currently in the runescape botting world there is a crisis. Accounts are being hacked, valuables are being lost.
4.
Many people are wondering WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED? WHY DID THIS GO TO SHIT SO QUICKLY? and i have answers.
5.
I have been taking part in this project over the last few months, i have now looked at the consequences of what i have done and have
6.
realised that its not worth it anymore.

Heres how it started
9.
10.
This has been planed out months ago, we started to talk about it in may 2010 but only started working on it in July.
11.
The two main Developers of the project were fed up with the powerbot community, Jacmob was having arguments with Paris about how the
12.
site was going downhill, there was too many botters and not enough contributers. Jacmob was fed up with this and decided to try and
13.
buy out powerbot. The amount that jacmob offered was high but paris would just not take it, this led to arguments within the staff
14.
and the replacement of many staff members. Jacmob decided to stay on as the developer, but always intended to resign sometime
15.
within the next 6 months. Soon after this, the old RSBot.org domain was bought out by jagex which led to more arguments within the
16.
staff. During this time Rsbot2 was being developed. Many of the staff took 2 sides, Most with Paris and the others with Jacmob (Arbiter & Toshi). The Project was started soon after this, originally it was started only to piss of Paris and show that the website would be nothing without them, however soon after this other factors came into play, such as member numbers, Monopoly of the botting industry & soon after that money. The project was originally very small with only about 15 people who knew what was going on, throughout this time they just did what they normally did on Powerbot, but other times they were creating a website & another Botting client. We launched the website on a private domain and soon after that we started to test the new client everything was working and was great, but soon after this we ran into a large problem, because our client is not open sourced to form some sort of protection for the client (From the jagex lawyers) & to make sure no one could edit our client (Sabotage) we had to create a Company (Company's have legal rights and immunities against certain laws), thus Automaton Software Ltd was born, the only problem we had now was the actual cost of registering the company. The company is registered in Germany for many reasons, the main one is that we would have certain immunity to many laws mainly because we could licence our software as freedom of speech. The costs of hosting the domain & licencing the company was going to cost thousands of Euro's to set up, we had already gone past our original budget and were using our own money to fund the project. We now had to think outside the box to come up with funding solutions, arbiters scripts were making money, but not nearly enough to fund the whole project, soon after this we came up with an idea which would tear the botting community appart. Arbiter is well known for his scripts, the best thing was that people couldn't see the source code of the scripts, so we could put anything we wanted into them and no one would ever know. we started to code a key logger which would take the Rsbots account data, decode it & send it to us via email's. This was reletivly easy because jacmob (Being the coder) knew how to decode the files, we planed on hacking everyones account and collecting all the gold & items and selling the accounts to gold selling websites (As this was before the announcement of free trade came). We actually started taking passwords in early December but due to a number
17.
of issues (With the licencing & the company) we were forced to wait till early January to start our operation, which worked out perfectly for us. On December 24th the announcement on free trade came, we knew this would work to our advantage so we decided to wait till free trade came back. Our estimates were that we could collect about 40 Billion GP which sold for 50c (Usd) a mil we could
18.
get about $20,000 American dollars, which would fund our site for the next few years. In doing this we also decided that it was far
19.
too risky to do the collection of GP ourself's, Paris was an old hacker who knew how to backtrack ip's and could easily screw us all
20.
over, we also didn't want our ip's to be traced by the government or by jagex (Both would end in a lawsuit against us) so we decided
21.
to hire some kids who would do the work for us, in return we would give them cash + all the GP they wanted this is how gh0st got
22.
involved. Gh0st was not a hacker, he was a leecher who was trying to learn how to hack, the perfect disguise... We literally got gh0st (Some 14 year old kid) to do all the transferring for us (We also hired some others but gh0st was the main one) all he did was create accounts and transfer the GP onto them. The other part of the deal we had with him was to say that he had done all the hacking and to take all the credit, Luckily he was quite good with photoshop and created some pretty good pictures of the account lists.
23.
We gave him all the logs of passwords on the day before free trade and let him get to work. The next thing that came was the
24.
advertising of our own site and trying to take there members, we made many ad's on the powerbot site to come to our new better client
25.
and on the Rsbot *******. Eventualy we were Ip banned of Powerbot and couldnt access the *******, this was when we started DDosing
26.
Thier site. We all used Rdos to ping there site till there was nothing left, what we didnt expect was them DDosing us back. This lead
27.
to the dossing war which is continuing right now. we have taken down their site, Ours is still up but is very slow to load. This
28.
is where the story ends... For now
29.
30.
You might think this is bullshit, think what you want, i have given an explanation to the current events to the best of my knowledge.
31.
32.
RsBuddy client is a real client and dose not steal your password, we are thinking of turning it into somthing simmilar to RSbots.net.
33.
ArbiBots scripts were the ones that stole your passwords. RsBuddy dosent steal your password, i think.
34.
We have currently collected 19 Billion Gp and we have gone through 3500/14000 accounts. This is the new age of botting.
