Apparently they can coming from RSBot the leader in Bot scripts. "/ decided to do a little digging to see if they would be gone for good.

As expected, the bots are currently down due to the recent RS update. We are working on an update and will keep you posted here as we progress. Stay tuned for updates. Thanks.

Updates

[*]11:23 AM - We're still evaluating the update. No doubt this update is much larger than normal and will require a lot of work. However, we're not dead as some may have you believe. We will be back up ASAP. I will be able to provide a better time estimate some time in the future. - Taken From RSBot

[/list]I'll keep checking in and updating you here. Bad News. but we all knew it was coming

[Timber Wolfs]

They always come back lol. I say enjoy it while it lasts.

Tbh people will find new ways to bot, but the sites aren't going to be up and running in days or anything. RID is still going to go strong.

[Crazycow73]

I really feel that this was a big blow to the botting community. Even if they get it back up, there will be less people botting which is always a good thing.

[Dy3nasty666]

They'll be back lol. you cant stop bots.

[Blake]

If I owned a bot, I would tell everybody it will be back up soon too. Having said that, I believe they will be back. I'm sure this update got rid some of the shittier ones though.

If Apple releases a new version of OSX and Adobe Photoshop doesn't work on that do you expect Adobe to say:"Yeah, it broke Photoshop. Shit happens, we ain't gonna do shit about it."Of course not, they'll tell you they'll get it running asap even if they know it's going to take them weeks.

Thats Powerbot not RSBot... there a group of developers that left RSBot to make there own bots because they werent happy. They tried to take the name with them but lost. There fb group is just called RSBot but they are Powerbot... and there shit high ban rate with them.

[*]Oct 25 9:47 PM - Progress is coming along nicely. There is still a lot of work to do. No exact time estimate is available, however, don't expect anything within the next 24 hours.

They'll be back, but not for a while. I'd guess it's a matter of months rather than weeks or years.

[kung pow]

They'll be losing a lot of money from thisWouldn't you panic/lie in this situation too?

Powerbot is Rsbot. Jagex took over the domian name. same group. proof? Wei Sui.
v Powerbot.

[Huygens]

Fuck them botters, ruining the economy, I support Jagex in this fight.

thats not proof... Jagex took over powerbots domain not rsbots... rsbots still works.

So you may be asking yourself, what makes RSBots.net better than PowerBot (PowerBot.org, previously known as RSBot)? Why should I use a paid Premium Bot from RSBots.net when I can get a free one from Power Bot? Programmatically, the answer is quite simple.

^ ermmmm gf they made there facebook chann when they were RSBot, and never made a new page.

[*]Oct 27 4:32 PM - Just letting you all know we're making very good progress. Much more awesomeness has been completed today. Thank you for being patient. Again, this weekend will bring much more information for you guys.
[*]Oct 26 6:55 PM - Today's RS update introduced more interesting challenges. Fear not! Work is still coming along nicely, however, do not expect anything in the immediate future. We will be returning. We are not dead. Significant information regarding many of the current events will be made available this weekend.
[*]Oct 26 9:50 AM - Updates are still coming along without a hitch! We appreciate your patience.
[/list]even if they are just saying that, I'm just letting you know what they are saying

Unfortunately, the only thing RS has done has taken down the option to use reflections for botting - All they have to do now is figure out another way, but apparently RSBots.net is releasing information soon that'll give everyone a better idea when they'll be back.
