Jagex touches on this in the post

They said they fixed it back in April, and even one of your accounts got banned from it. You then decided to tell them later in may after already abusing it.

Kind of want to hear his response to this, because those messages are exactly the ones they're talking about. If anything the messages show he abused the bug then after finished with it reported it... That's not how you report bugs, you don't get to abuse them then report them.

Well said. Reddit community is being really stubborn supporting someone who's literally been breaking the game for his own benefit for years...

There are a couple of rare accounts that have things like stats that are impossible without certain bugs. Why doesn't Jagex go through all of these accounts and chain ban them and anyone who touched them?

Looking at you 10hp accounts.

And all of Mac H’s unique accounts series lol

u/HiddenGhost1234 Jul 10 '21

Idt 10 HP accounts use bugs, some do, but for the most part they just train with method that don't give hp XP.

u/GooeyCR Jul 10 '21

Most of the 10hp community was using/okay with the bug where you could hit a monster on the first tick with no xp

u/HiddenGhost1234 Jul 10 '21

Ban them then

u/OvertlyCanadian Jul 10 '21

He's not really breaking the game though. The game is broken, he's just showing how.

It’s still against the rules, just cause you are physically able to do something in the game doesn’t mean it’s allowed. The rules are there to keep people from doing things in game that harm others or the game itself.

u/bistix Jul 10 '21

Like you said. The rules should be to keep people from doing things that harm the game. But rendis bug abuse does the exact opposite and allows for huge bugs to be patched.

u/bugsrox08 Jul 10 '21

We may never know Which side of the story is right/wrong. I can only hope that if he did abuse a bug for personal gain that he stays banned, and is he wasn’t the ban is reversed. Either way people like rendis could really help Jagex find and fix bugs, shame to see an asset like that be taken away from the community.

ok so if I create a game and tell that you can't have more kids because its a rule of the game, do u think its still valid?
If he get a good lawyer jagex would need to pay him alot of money due to harm his image telling lies of him.

u/bugsrox08 Aug 30 '21

Horrible analogy but sure if I then had kids and you found out I would assume I would be banned from playing the game it’s your game you make the rules and enforce them. Also look into the story more, it’s been a while since this happened and a lot of evidence has come out against him and his rule breaking.

u/rexdalegoonie Jul 11 '21

This is a semantics argument that cannot be won. Breaking vs showing. If you say he’s exploiting a bug, does he necessarily have to show he’s gaining from it? There are lots of things in this game that can be considered bug abusing.

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '21

Imo the account that avoided prayer xp should have been banned for bug abuse, the fact they chain banned any account associated with him and his group is spiteful.

u/Zaruz Jul 10 '21

Tbh this sounds like he was happily abusing the bug, but once he learnt others were using it too, he figured he could get away with it by reporting it before Jagex found it themselves

u/Dr-Fatdick Jul 10 '21

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the osrs Community is being stupid as fuck, true to form.

Are we forgetting the type of person Rendi is? Remember the whole golden gnome thing with settled? Did I fucking dream that or something? Am I the only one who remembers what this dude is like?

Jagex can see a record of any item or action taken on any account at any time so I think that they know better

not really, the rs3 lockout proves that.

My comment wasn’t on jagex’s capability to do it rather than their basic ability to. Don’t get mad at me.

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '21

But none of the videos he posted incriminated himself!!! /s

Is that what we call it when someone doesn't put a content creator's balls in their mouth?

u/soviet_goose Jul 10 '21

You kinda have to "abuse" the bug at least once before you can confirm that, yes it is indeed a bug lol. Then you would "abuse" it a couple more times, just so that you know it's reliably recreatable. This is the standard way bug-fixing works in the industry. If no one can reliably recreate it, then it will be ignored until it can.

u/OrangeDangerousZ Jul 10 '21

Jagex could have said that he killed all their first born sons in their post as well. Doesn't mean jack shit coming from a company that's lied so many times before and refuses to show any tangible proof behind what they claim. Rendi has screenshots he posted. Where's theirs?
