The botting issue in the prototype of AoS will not exist when it is fully released. Simple as that.

lol. Please learn how aimbots work before making a statement like this.

This reminds me of a quote off of IRC:

<Sniped> if there is no cheating possible, would you need extra admin tools?

You shouldn't make such bold implications, especially if they have no technical backing.

People will cheat in 1.0 just as with any game. OpenGL as a technology is tried and tested when it comes to cheating.

I wouldn't consider idle legal threats as being a "wealth of experience". I've done my fair share of anti-cheat measures, both technically and socially. I have real-world knowledge and real-world expectations about the subject. Blindly expecting Jagex to obliterate all cheating is quite preposterous. Especially when trying to pull a line like "We have a wealth of experience in dealing with bots too.", when everybody knows Jagex has little to no control over the cheating in their headlining game.

Protip: The average 12 year old who downloads an aimbot isn't going to care about some idle legal threat. It's quite laughable.

I speak for myself when saying I don't take a company seriously if they try to threaten a lawsuit against anybody who cheats in a game. If anything, it's likely to stir up interest in people to make cheats as a sort of challenge.

Also, mfw everybody is pretty much reiterating what I wrote in a post, only to have it deleted for being "libelous". The only problem is my statement was based of of personal expereience from RuneScape, as well as public documentation regarding legalites between Jagex and cheaters. Basically, it's proven and factual (although my personal experence with RS would be considered opinionated). That's not anywhere near being "libelous".

You were seriously banned for joking around?
