The down side of this update was that it made the game unplayable for a lot of people that played using the official client (due to it playing super laggy) . It would also break all the third party clients and we didn't even have mobile to consider back then
This time all you gotta do is nuke the bots without all the other stuff. Ez Clap
We ban them at a much, much faster rate than we did back then.
But suicide botting wasn't a thing back then either
You didn't need to because you could bot to 200m hunter without getting banned
If that is the case, what is holding us back from a more notible result? Do you need more anti-cheat employees?? How can we make it clear that we want jagex to invest more in this?
For all your hard work it's obvious not enough is being done about this problem
We need tighter restrictions on account creation to prevent (or at least slow) the mass creation of accounts. This would include mandatory email verification and limiting of email domains that you can use.
I would like better trade restrictions for new accounts. This is something that I'm currently planning but I'd like to find a good balance so that we don't put off new legitimate players.
Ideally we would also get a lot of improvements to the tools that are required to combat the hand played gold farmers, as the current ones weren't designed with that in mind and simply aren't up to the task.
Hand played gold farmers aren't really as much of a problem, focus on bots.
Hand played gold farmers are a massive problem
