Macroing minor offences are 14 day bans, not 1 year bans. The offence expires after one year.

On topic, I've had two f2p accounts banned recently for macroing minor. One account was a new fisher (one day old), fishing on Karajma, while the other was a level 95 miner, mining in the guild resource dungeon 24/7 for more than a month.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were giving out more minors these days. They want to discourage botting without banning people and risk them quitting, they have to find a way to combat botting without losing money.

I'm with ya. I've had two accounts banned within 1-2 weeks.
