[OSRS] How quickly do you get banned after RWT?

[justcallmebob]

I read it’s highly unlikely to be banned for RWT, but I’m always concerned to see how likely you are to be banned for RWT.

I’ve also heard that the MODs are going light on banning player right now in general. But, my basic question is how soon are you to be banned after a RWT incident/action?

Depends on how you trade, where you trade, what combat level you trade on, what country you are trading from. (I don't recommend using vpn's). I personally have not been banned for a few years now.

from my experience it's account selling.

In terms of gold it's pretty safe I would say just don't make it obvious.

 

I've been scripting/botting/RWTing for roughly two years now and I just got hit with my first RWT ban a week or so ago.

So I may have been extremely lucky to last that long until a ban OR the bans are just that unlikely.
You decide

I haven't ever been banned for RWT (aside from purchasing an infernal cape without using new methods) and I have purchased and sold gold many times.

Botting however, I usually last 1-3 weeks max until the account gets a ban.

 

Yo it really does depend on a lot of factors.
From my personal experience:

Buying gold: Extremely low ban rate, bought over 500b, never got banned
Selling gold: Fairly low ban rate, sold over 500b, never got banned, but there are plenty of sellers that get hit from time to time. Trading in members, with a high level account, not trading 100 people a day, minimalizes this risk a lot.
Buying accounts: Extremely low ban rate, never had an account banned after it was sold ( sold over 250 accs ),
Selling accounts: Same as above.
User services: Highly depends on the geo-location of the worker. I've had 0% ban rates with EU workers, but Venezuelean workers do get bans from time to time.
Botting: Not a RWT ban, but high ban rates
Bot farming: Somewhat high ban rates. It does depend on how well you would mule everything and on how big your bot farm is. I have friends who tried to bot farm. They started with only 5-10 accounts, and one day got banned on their main account as well ( they used this account just to give bonds, different PC, different IP ).

I hope this helps!

Where did you acquire the LIGHT banning information. If Jagex catches someone breaking the rules they won't hold back.

In terms of ban rates, it depends how smart you are. If you're reckless then you'll be banned fairly quickly. I personally haven't received a RWT ban for a few years now.
