It gets less painful later on, when I can just click and then watch YouTube videos for five minutes. Also, it's better XP. | | FlashMarsh |

Lol, I was curious to hear if the "bot nuke" would actually work. Do you think they'll be gone for good, or return shortly?
COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please.

At the start of this year, RS's creators made a very stupid decision in which they'd make a lot more money, but would easily allow bots (computer programs that play the game) to roam freely. They ignored the issue for several months and finally declared they had created a bot nuke "nuclear missile for bots" that could stop 98% of them from working. It's worked so far, but most think it's a temporary solutions that'll just last longer than their other failed attempts.
COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please.

what did they do in the first place? I remember looking for mining bots for hours, but I never found a non-virus, working, free bot..

They "botted" skills. They were simple programs that did various tasks for you. | | FlashMarsh |

Simple? You don't understand how complex some are Yuggy. Anyway, they sent this to some of the botters-
'Jagex' said: Dear Player,
We have strong evidence that you may have purchased and used botting software in the past, specifically ibot software.
Botting and the cheating it brings is destroying your game, violates Jagex's rights under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), and any player that continues to engage in botting activity has no place in our community.
As part of bot nuke week we are offering you a 1 time amnesty and settlement lifeline, which is a chance to reform and change your ways. We'd like you to contribute to the community in a positive way, to compete on a level playing field as everyone else does and play in the true spirit of the game, with integrity. All of your accounts, main and otherwise, are now on our watch list and will be monitored for the use of ibot and all other inappropriate third-party software. Regardless of who you are or how long you've been with us, if you decide to cheat and bot ever again we will have no hesitation in: (1) permanently removing your account from our wonderful community in order to protect Jagex's rights under the DMCA, and (2) naming you as a defendant in Jagex Limited v. John Does, which is a lawsuit based on DMCA violations that is currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (Civ. Action No. SACV11-00969-CJC).
Please note that this amnesty and settlement offer is protected under Fed. R. Evid. 408. If you ignore our offer and instead continue use botting software, we reserve our rights to pursue statutory damages against you for between $200 to $2,500 per act of past, present, and/or future botting in accordance with 17 U.S.C. 1203(c)(3).
We do hope you make the morally sound and lawful choice of turning your back on bots. We look forward to seeing you in game having fun in a way that is true to the spirit of fair play and respectful to your fellow players.
Yours sincerely,
Mark Gerhard

It's a fun game, but I always find myself drifting back to minecraft and my multitude of mods. (I'm an expert now and can pretty much instal any mod, which at the moment is castle defence, a great mod, but previously I had the planes mod.) Anyway what I'm saying is that it is a fun game, but I always get bored and play other games. | | Shavey Dave |

what's the Wicked Hood?

It's a hood released at the same time as the Halloween event. You get it from this creepy looking guy in Varrock Square. Each day you can teleport to an altar, get some rune essence and get some runes. You can extend the choice of teleports and runes by adding talismans to it. I think it's pretty cool. | | FlashMarsh |
