    1. From what I've tested, no. I think they look at playtime.
    2. Yes, but avoid Jagex office working hours. It's of course always safer to avoid Blast Furnace.

    Probably a dumb question, but what would their working hours be, any clue? Lastly, "force menu interaction" is it best to have it on or off? Some bots work better with it on, but i was wondering if it makes a difference on detection

    I don't know what that is, but their office hours are on their website jagex.com.

    Is there anything to do while botting that can help you blend in?

    Typing in chat?
    Private messages?
    Clicking other places?
    Drinking pots?
    Turn run on or off?

    I'm just spit balling things on the top of my head, but you get the idea.

    I'd say do anything that makes you look human like. Yes, type in the chat... Have a few friends... Right click on random shit, examine for fun... Bots can support pots.. Yes, toggle run, check your xp left, change up your skills, I have 1 99 so far on my botting account. Shortly, I will have 2 more. Quest, most bots don't do quests. Don't bot during Jagex business hours, instead play legit. Don't bot 24/7, play a little legit.. I also let my account idle out, or when I am working on another account I bank stand...

    Interfering with the bots own movement, and seemingly chatting while skilling (not afk) is fairly suicide in the long run. Let's say you set the bot on pause and interfer with manual input, which causes inconsistency and breaks the pattern the bot set previously. Do it enough times and you'll get a ban. Secondly, a lot of idiots start chatting while the bot is doing something that actually requires some degree of focus. For example, firemaking with tinderbox and logs. You'd normally have legit players stop burning logs, and then talking. The opposite, which is far from human behaviour, would be talking while the bot is constantly burning logs, banking and repeating the process.

    Good idea, nicely put bro. Another way is to mke sure account is a ouple years old. Add friends and Some to ignore list. Do some quests and join a clan chat cc to talk into while skilling/botting.

    Great points.

    25+ banned accounts here, because I like to test different botting practices and push the limits and see what I can get away with. So what I've observed is that you can get away with chatting IF you pause the bot, talk in cc or whatever and then click to resume botting.

    However, regularly chatting DURING botting will get you banned. Especially because a lot of the bots here seem to use the arrow keys to move the camera, so if you chat away during that, it's an obvious red flag. Pause the bot, then chat, then play. Keep the mouse and keyboard inputs blocked if you care about the account.

    Also I wouldn't do any skills by hand that you've heavily botted. Your play style most likely won't be similar to the bots, this is especially true with combat bots. Two very distinct playing patterns is an easy giveaway.

    And account age is irrelevant as long as you don't bot like a retard and go 12+ hours a day with no breaks. You might get away with more on older accounts, but nothing is guaranteed.

    I also bot during the Jagex office hours daily (EU timezone), in hotspots and in f2p as well and get away with it easily. So I think people keep over inflating the importance of avoiding it.
    1) Just keep your hours human like (I've found 4-10h botting per day to be the sweet spot with small breaks every 1-3h and occasional afk'ing);
    2) Have a name and combat level that doesnt negatively stick out in a hot spot and scream 'bot'. And don't look like the default bald character;
    3) Use a bot/setup up the bot so it looks as human-like as possible. Eg. I see a lot of people set up mining and woodcutting bots (on accounts that obviousy weren't meant for suiciding) incorrectly and they stand out like a sore thumb. Observe what your bot is doing and test different locations/radiuses before you allow it to work on it's own for extended periods of time.

    Have all three done correctly and you can bot at any hour you want without worrying about bans. I could keep on going, but this post is long enough I think lol. I could write an essay at this point on the things I've personally learned and things I've found to be true/false about some of the recommendations here and elsewhere...

    So just my input on botting when it comes to runescape 3. I dropped a total of $600 on runescape and i've been botting almost 12 hours a day or more and they dont seem to care as long as you drop enough money.

    I just recently started playing RuneScape again and just got a two day ban. Should I wait a while to start botting again ? I would play legit for a couple hours and then leave the bot on for 6 or so hours when I went to bed.

    Sad day, and from what I read I shouldn’t keep botting under the same IP address or they will just keep banning me constantly right ,

    Can jegex detect inhuman mouse movement/same pattern like for exampel a fletching bot has? Or do they only ban if you literally fletch for 4 hours straight? Is it better to fletch/craft/herblore for lets say only 1 hour a day at max? I recently got banned for only 2 days and I haven't really suicidebotted, I don't know what the cause could have been but if it's anything like inhuman mouse movement or something then this is hella scary :S

    I botted 99 fletching doing 12+hrs straight, and the script bot was pretty shitty. Just bot the amount of time you would by hand (in my case was 0 as I fully botted it). And bot where absolutely no one will see you and report you.
