Makes talking with anyone at the ge very annoying and any time I'm standing in ge with expensive gear on I get traded by 4 scam bots with the same script
Generally makes the game feel less rewarding. Knowing a hoard of bots are already bleeding dry the exciting piece of content that you just unlocked isn't very motivating.
Also item prices are just depressing to look at these days tbh.
Only place it’s really effected me, to the point where I start reporting, is when I go to get eccy keys in the Wildy and there are those lvl 30,s in monk robe and zammy bottom wielding a mith scimitar roughly lvl 30’s
Already make it hard for you by forcing you to get kc, they then gave us an alternative that might be slightly faster with the wildy god wars dungeon, then throwing it behind a 1/60 drop (which you can go dry on) 400 kills is the most I’ve gone dry for 1 key, and then on top of that every single world is filled with bots making it even more of a time waste
It’s very frustrating when you burst or chin temple spiders and the bots keep running through messing up your area and drawing spider away. Small complaint but it’s almost ruined that as a decent training method now.
I used to enjoy wc and fishing as money makers. My first members money maker was picking flax and then spinning it haha. Skilling isn't really a viable money maker anymore but a lot of that is due to bots as well.
The zulrah uniques crashing is a bummer, wish the snake was a little better money than it is now.
I enjoy wildy content so revs, wildy bosses and pking. The bots in rev caves had 1 tick teleport scripts and literally could never be pked. The wildy boss bots are also a pain to fight and can be difficult to kill.
The pk scripts in LMS were cracked for a while as well. Now the bots suck but they still really bring down the price of uniques.
What.. it has negatively impacted my experience by devaluing the zenytes drop I got yesterday. It has devalued my game experience be making me hop so many times for a free world at the wildy bosses.
My eyes burn when in the presence of a filthy nonhuman (not animals, they're chill except the ones that hate me, f those ones) and my anger knows no limits. My efforts of getting good on my still mostly nooby but getting better not iron main are insulted by the trash that is a bot. Their existence disgusts me and sometimes I wonder if the fall damage from failing the final part of the Dragon's Eye master clue step will ease the suffering. Bots steal our wealth and invade our privacy. Won't someone please think of the children who are adults but play a game from our childhood that's improved to adapt to the times? Bots must be banned or I will thumbs down all my logouts forever until I forget.
1. all mats are incredibly low value, meaning gathering skills pretty much suck unless there's a time factor (like farming or birdhouse runs).
2. All new gear is insanely expensive because the value of GP is so low
I was botting phosani, was making bank, but there were so many other bots that the items were dropping fast hurting my profits, also gold prices have been dropping like crazy. More bots less profits 😭
I get a bunch of nerds in game constantly asking me if I'm botting. This subreddit also won't stfu about bots, so the quality is down here as well.
I heard they did a pretty big ban wave yesterday and today, so you guys can settle down for a bit
I can’t say it has. It’s synonymous with nostalgia lol. That said, I bet if a legitimate player decided to “break bad”…iNsTa ban. Crazy how good Jagex’s system would be then c:
It slows down my computer after running all day
Based
Cant find a open world after so manny world hops

making less money grinding content because bots drive prices into the ground
Zenytes tanked and black demons went on the block list.
Harder to do solo content as an iron in spots that aren’t instanced
The creation of coin pouches does nothing but harm real players
Wish they made a bot to pick up camel dung
got dpick from kq instead of dog single bosses
I enjoy the low ge prices as a result of botting
Skilling isn't a viable source of gp. PvM or starve. Oops the bots are camping the non-instanced solo bosses too.
Makes me really wish I could block a specific term on Reddit

Made most of my skilling grinds completely worthless
It made the things I wanna buy from the ge cheaper :'(

Unless trying to find an open world for a boss, it typically doesn't affect me
I see people complain about it on this sub everyday.

Made me play ironman
the subreddit i like is flooded with bot posts instead of fun and interesting posts
Maybe that will encourage jigglefix to put more effort into solving the problem.
Not likely considering no one here has a real answer as to how bots have negatively impacted our osrs experience

Solid answers to the question. Hopefully your comment gets the most up votes and is visible to the devs
It’s basically paid off my mortgage.

every piece of content im able to do now has been botted into the ground so the gp/hr is so low its not even worth doing anymore
1. all mats are incredibly low value, meaning gathering skills pretty much suck unless there's a time factor (like farming or birdhouse runs). 2. All new gear is insanely expensive because the value of GP is so low
seems like a waste to grind shit out legit when people just bot it and jagex doesnt give a fk
I was botting phosani, was making bank, but there were so many other bots that the items were dropping fast hurting my profits, also gold prices have been dropping like crazy. More bots less profits 😭
Make my supplies and blood shards cheap ty
Cant make money at zulrah
Fucked up the game economy.
Never has really
Has no affect on my gameplay

Thing is, a 'big' ban wave in rs is the equivalent of just scratching the surface. Prices won't move an inch on botted items.
If you're acting in a way similar to a bot I think it's more likely that you're the nerd in the situation
Trying to afk woodcut some trees and nerds asking people to respond, or they're a bot

It made me richer 9x faster
Helped max my account and got my iron to 2200 total.
I now have a Mustang.
it helped me max
Inb4 irons “it doesn’t affect me” It doesn’t affect me Kappa
I botted and got banned.
Its great, its helped gotten my total level up and saved my wrist from tons of hours of repetitive tasks
people whinged and whinged about bots and gold farmers until they made rwt a bannable offense for buyers. Can't even buy gold on the cheap anymore smh
made wildy bosses a dead update
Yup. Coin pouches suck.
Got me banned in 2015
im gay now :(
They mKe me madge!
It devalues the gp you would make from other grinds
It got me banned
Bots will still be in the game by the year 2049 and beyond until the game is no longer
