Would using a mechanical contraption be considered botting?

Admires · Jan 9, 2016

If I built a contraption to autoclick for me every certain period of time, would that be botting? no software would be used, just a mechanical contraption i would build to click for me.

Not to my knowledge.

Botting usually involves a third party software

I don't really think so, and even if it was, they can't catch you.

I see it as no difference than botting. If it has the same time interval between clicks and always stays in the same place, it will look just like a pleb autoclicker.

???? If you have a contraption that autoclicks at a set interval jagex cannot tell the difference and will just ban you

Hahaha

I assume you would do this in hopes of appealing with video / picture proof if you were indeed banned - but if you're planning on doing this on any account you give a shit about I would think twice.

I remember somebody on Reddit complained they were banned for botting, but they had video proof it was a power drill with an attachment on it to autoclick. He was never unbanned. It'll just look like an autoclicker with the same interval, which is usually a pretty easy ban.

You get banned for anything that has the same time interval between actions when it comes to clicking.

you will be fine, a little bit of lag etc and pressure difference per rotation will not make each click the exact same amount apart so will make it like finger clicking
