After today, I think we can see that users just do not notice the message above shoutbox or even search the forum. I think a client warning needs to be built into the client so red names can set that warning whenever a script bot is ran. Just a simple dialog should suffice, but it must be very obvious. I would imagine it would decrease the amount of people confused and posting random reports on the forum. I would also imagine that it would decrease the amount of developers getting spammed that their script bot doesn't work etc.
I would imagine the sooner it could be the implemented the better for overall user experience. A lot of script bot writes are having people stop using their scripts bots thinking that they are all of a sudden broken. Obviously it shouldn't take priority over some things, but to have it in place before the next update to either RS3/OSRS would mean less burden on everyone.
I mean this kind of thing very rarely happens, most updates are handled within 15 minutes automatically, so it's not a matter of priority.
Still feel like this is something that should be a priority, even if its unlikely that it doesn't work. Having it there in case shit goes wrong is very important. This will help the users stop spamming forums and means they can easily tell when its up/not. Even if its the simple ability to put a notification across the top to say "X game mode is down". Especially with all the engine updates coming to OSRS soon, they keep changing the engine and it will keep breaking.
Would like to add something, this update might also decrease the amount of people asking for refunds due to failed bots during downtime.
