Well, I was walking to red chinchompas about to start my bot up. A guy started talking to me so I used the bot and talked to him at same time so I didn't look suspicious. There was him and another guy. The guy told me that the other guy was botting cause he wouldn't talk, etc. So I agreed. Well this guy tells me that Jagex is creating a new "bot detection" thing tomorrow and that there will be a system update. He told me that after that system update all(or most of) botters will be banned via this new "bot detection". Well of course I didn't believe the guy. Then another person comes up to the chinchompas and starts laying their traps down. Then the guy who told me about this new "bot detection" started talking to him like he knew him because he said his real name on runescape. Well what do you know, it's a PMOD. I continued the bot detection conversation to see what the mod had to say about it, and he tells me that he doesn't know nor does he have that type of information.
The guy PM's me and says something similar to the lines of "Hey that mod is my friend irl and he does know about the new bot detection happening tomorrow, i'm on the phone with him now and he told me not to tell anyone else about it so please dont tell anyone."
I really wish I would have screen shotted it, but I turned my private to friends and hopped worlds so I could bot without having to stare at runescape. I didn't even think about taking a screenie at that time.
So, it is true or fake?
My opinion:
FAKE. Even though there is a PMOD there, whom knows the other guy IRL, doesn't mean that this will really happen. The player could have easily made that up knowing that his PMOD friend was on the way to scare me/others perhaps? Also, jagex is not and probably never will ban the botters. There will not be a mass ban that big as the guy was assuming. Jagex would lose hundreds of thousands of dollars. We all know why Jagex won't do a mass ban on us botters, so I won't go in-depth on that.
Let's hear your opinion on this. Because if a system update DOES occur tomorrow, Im'a be scared to bot without getting banned.
