Risk of botting

Bot-Busting Update: Legal Proceedings - News - RuneScape. Is any one concerned that WoW could do the same?

 

[unreal2012]

No. It is a bold statement saying that they have removed 98% of the bots.

 

[skenar]

well they said they are suing all the botters

omg it is imposible , they already tried that with honorbuddy and the bot is running fine. You can't sue all the botters, coz they would need massive recources to carry on law sue. for example i would like to see that in chaina how they track botters fck runescape its pice of shi..

 

[skenar]

still pretty scary stuff. They track them down through pay pal and you dont need massive recources(but we all know they are making 200 millions of dollars a year).

Bot-Busting Update: Legal Proceedings

Hui that's really bad "news"

Just to let you know how this case ended up in 2012

Recently, judgment was entered in Jagex’s favor at Court on every count in the case. We have to pay Jagex a significant sum of money, although we are not allowed to say exactly how much for legal reasons. We are also prevented by injunction from doing a number of things in the future, including developing botting software, helping other people develop or use botting software or talking about Jagex, the lawsuit or RuneScape. If we breach any of the conditions of the injunction (such as by developing new bot software or helping people cheat in RuneScape) we would have to pay Jagex at least $1,000,000.

Never trust US-companies with your personal information. The courts over there are always ruling in the favor of the large company because they provide work opportunity for countless people and drive the economy.

Every one of the people above me, fearing for botting on wow? What are you talking about Honorbuddy is Offshore and also have a pending case file, etc etc. But they are not on US Soil so they will be fine.

Also, if you look at the top of the page of the "BOT BUSTING" for "SHITSCAPE" You will notice.

So, 5 Years later I am sure we are fine as clearly nothing has happened.

Close thread?

You can fear or fear not, its personal decision!

But the Hb community is safe enough, no matter where you do make your living, easy as that.
