Good. Bots were the #1 reason why I quit playing RS.

Why? Bots dont affect you in ANY way.. And I loved them, when i left home i would just open up the bot and let it do all the work.. Got better things to do then play RuneScape all the time

Really now? So bots don't steal my mining spots? They don't steal my Frost Dragon kills and Slayer monsters? One bot doesn't do that but when there is 10+ bots camping for a respawn of like 3 monsters or a yew tree or runite rock it does affect my gameplay severely.

Also when thousands of bots were gathering and selling resources 24/7 the prices fell as supply grew. This meant less and less profit for the same work over time.

Botting is lame and saying it doesn't affect other people is an even more lame excuse to botting.
