I could join the bot worlds, but I'm fairly certain that they don't talk much or behave like a normal player in general (stumble through quests, make friends, trade with other random players, etc.). They probably just grind skills in some optimal way.
How realistic are they?
If that's the case what led to the inspiration to use Runescape and are there any notable non-LLM machine/reinforcement models you think might have an interesting time with this?
That being said, is copying the game outright legal?
no it is not. a lot of runescape servers have recently been receiving UDRP disputes (to get domain + contact info) and subsequent legal communications from jagex
Bans were (and still are) pretty hard to come by as long as you pay for a membership.
Once the original creator moved on from ownership, the new owner also had a business with Runescape botting.
The story is that it didn't go well for the maintainers of Autohotkey until another person took the reigns.
Personally I've never really seen the point of botting; I thought part of the fn of these MMOs was that you earned the leveling up.
