Hey guys,
A lot of people are confused about the bot nuke and fearing the almighty "Optimus". Truth is, the Optimus update has already happened. Optimus was never meant to be a bot nuke. It was an update to the engine, that will, in the future, allow for the programming of a new bot nuke easier.
There has been no discussion, no announcements and no reports of said bot nuke.
May 3rd 2012 Runescape Optimus Update.
Optimus V2.
The second part of Optimus has been released and it has been confirmed to not be a bot nuke.
Hope this helps shed light on all the confusion the very feared "Optimus".
Thanks,

“ Hi Everyone,
Today's release has seen the introduction of the Optimus platform in place of many older build systems. As you've seen, this means that the recent performance issues have be resolved for almost all players, although there are still some engine updates being worked on to improve performance even further in various areas.
Optimus is not a change to the game engine itself, but a library that allows us to develop fixes to these sorts of issues very quickly. While today's update has already acted as another nuke to bots, it was targeted towards performance improvements and so is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to bot prevention. Optimus will allow us to introduce various anti-bot measures seamlessly, regularly, and without reducing performance heavily. We also have another huge update in development along side all of this to break bots of every kind (not just 'inflection' bots). There's a lot coming in the near future; watch this space! ”

“ This has caused a bit of confusion, there are two parts to optimus one part is a change to our engine that makes it more dynamic allowing us to develop off the back of it quicker and more efficiently, this part has been released however the second part of optimus is running off the back of this to beat the bots. This part has not been released yet, i hope this explains everything! "
