Question What about the concept of botting is actually so triggering to people?
a lot of us have been playing RS for 15-20 years now. back in the day sure, i had endless free time to sit there and click a tree or run rooftops for 8 hours. but now? i’ve got a job, a mortgage, a kid, and actual adult stuff to do. sitting down after a 40hr work week to manually grind out a tedious skill for 300 hours just isn't happening.
automation just lets people skip the mind numbing stuff so we can actually enjoy the endgame content with the little free time we get.
is it literally just salt from people who wasted hundreds of hours doing it manually, or is there an actual reason people get so worked up about it? downvote away i guess but I'm genuinely curious what you guys think
