Hmm. Discuss.

iBot? What the fuck is iBot? Any why would they say I purchased it? Have never purchased anything outside of RSBuddy folks.


ITS NOT FAKE:

its a phisher dont believe it!

Are you retarded? Yes, it's full of bad grammar and links telling me to log in to my account.

NO. Its a legit email you dumb cunt. Get out of my thread.

 
Interesting, No I have not received one yet.
 

Too me it looks pretty fake. Yes, it is obviously not a phish, but seriously, it isn't against the law to bot.

I think there is a model of NeXuS called "iBot", but not sure.

Oh, yes you're right, NeXus is classified as iBot. So it appears they only catch Reflection bots.

In any event, I haven't botted with Nexus in ohhhhh 4 months, 5 months. and the last time I did bot was maybe a 3 weeks ago using rsbuddy.

So idk. Jagex is losing their minds.

It's from Jagex, whether they're bluffing or not. Its not against the law to bot, but it's not from someone outside of jagex. I traced the email, posted the headers and DNS'ed it. Its legitimate.

Jagex lost their minds when they released the GE. They caused their own original demise.
 
Well, you are breaking a rule in the game. So technically it is breaking a law. Because when you agree'd to sign up, you accepted their terms.

A flimsy law, that they would never enforce. But a law.

We accept terms every day, they aren't necessarily legally binding us, they're more there to save the publishers ass. Like if you're 17 and click "I'm 18+, Enter" on an age restricted website, you didn't break a "law", you lied, and give the website no liability if you get in trouble for being on the site.

Jagex has sued and failed almost every bot publisher out there and lost the battle, how the FUCK are they really going to turn around and say they're going to go after individuals? Not happening.

Question.. When we signed up for Runescape.. Did we accept a TOS stating that we will goto prison if we bot? Surely I dont remember that. And if they changed the TOS when we were playing.. Can't we report them?

actually no contract can be made with a persons under 18, verbal or text =] gf TOS
thank you pre law mother

"If you are under 18, by using our website you are representing (i.e. making a promise) that you have consent from your parents / guardian to use Jagex Products in accordance with our terms and conditions and privacy policy. We may Stop any account if we are not satisfied that such consent has been given."

Thats how they get around that, you agreed that you had consent.

No. Because by accepting the TOS, which we all did, theres no way to play without accepting them you also accepted any changed made to the TOS.

"Changes
We may change these terms and conditions to reflect: changes in applicable laws; regulatory or security requirements; relevant guidance or codes of practice; technical alterations to Jagex Products; and to improve clarity and consistency. Please check the terms and conditions whenever you use a Jagex Product. If you are not a subscriber, we will treat your continued use of a Jagex Product as acceptance of these changes from their effective date as shown above. If you are a subscriber, we will treat you as bound by the changes on the first renewal date for your subscription after the effective date and so you should cancel your subscription (as explained below) before this renewal date if you don't like the proposed changes."


The only thing I'm hung up on is they do mention emulation, reverse-engineering, macroing and injection but only as a rule. Nowhere do they mention DCMA or any laws.

No, but it could be perceived that by allowing the applet to run one enters a contract with JaGeX, thus you are subjected to their newly implemented rules.
 
If you're not going to read the whole thread, dont post. I've adequately outlined why and how this isn't fake.

It's fake for 1 reason and 1 reason only..

Jagex = UK
Uk = £
email = $$$

If you read the email, BEE TEE DUBYA, You'd see the lawsuit would be in California, Therefor any punishment or penalty would be in USD, fuckface.
 
You are not the only one who got this. I think it's either one player or many who are against botters trying to scare them.
