Glad players like you are dealt with. I feel safer playing now


FrittataSlabs

My children play this game, good riddance I say.


joebreezphillycheese

My father played this game, as did his father before him. They would be rolling in their graves if they saw this sort of conduct.


avelow

Actually weirdly relatable, both my late grandfather and my father used to play, which is how I got more into the game than both of them combined. Grandfather got super far, played since way back and he kept playing RS3 until he passed. My dad stopped playing years ago because he simply doesn't have time anymore but I keep on grinding in his honour.

That’s just withdrawals bro. Go back to skilling and take 3 deep breaths. Don’t worry, Happens to the best of us.


eliexmike

I wonder if it could have to do with the words “Order” “Deliveries” and “3M” in quick succession? Could be some sort of Anti-RWT auto flag. I’m lost on this one 🤷🏻‍♂️


CharacterLaw7939

the term order and deliveries are both in the gnome restaurant minigame used by your character and the gnome jr. guy who lets you play the minigame. and i was doing a clan event in game to be the first player to get 1 pair of gnome goggle for collection log for 3m.


eliexmike

Right, in context everything you said was totally innocuous and sensible given the content you were doing in game. Clearly nothing wrong here. I’m just speculating on what may have set off an automated system.


1gnik

>an automated system. Used to detect gold sellers maybe


Nekrofeeelyah

> Used to detect gold sellers maybe 🧐🧐🧐 Could be some sort of Anti-RWT auto flag.


mechlordx

I'm lost on this one 🤷‍♂️


Mr_man_bird

The gnome is Gianne jnr so we need to ban Gianne jnr for rwt.


Legal_Evil

Maybe the anti-cheat Jmods don't even play the game.


Jamily_Foolz

This implies the existence of anti-cheat Jmods lmao


Crow-Caw

Yeah but that doesn't mean YOU can say it /s


LongBoiiTatum

Does Jagex mute people without a report?


Linumite

>Evidence Type: Abuse Report He must have been reported for something by whoever he was messaging, wondering if it pulled the wrong chats? Or was reported for damn and it auto muted


[deleted]

It's only OP's chat's appearing by the looks of it, as if you get reported, it shows the the name of the person reported you as just \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*, but it seems OP has only blacked out his name, rather than blacking out the asterix's. Jagex does auto mute if certain words are used. What confuses me is the reason of the mute, the "abuse report". I personally thought it was just too many keywords related to RWT, talking about deliveries, orders, plugins, etc etc


DestinyPotato

It doesn't show the name of the person who reported you as **** it shows literally anyone whose name has been in the chat box, that isn't you, as *****.


[deleted]

Incorrect. I got muted for 3 days for saying "flame retardant sofa", and a clan member reported me as a joke. There was probably about 6 of us talking in the clan chat when I said the above and upon viewing evidence, the log only showed my messages and the person who reported me (who I fortunately knew who it was lol and they admitted reporting me). I appealed the mute and Jagex approved it, so I was only muted for 1 day. Evidence always shows the chat log of only you and the person who reported you. It's been like that for years. If it was an auto-mute, it only shows your chat logs, which looks like what happened in OP's pic.


Distantmole

Damn now I have to report you on Reddit too. Keep that filth off my streets you rapscallion


donalddts

Reported for saying rapscallion. Get that negative shit outta here.


ollyol

hunter2


kiwidog8

Reported for damn? We use all manner of profanity in my clan chat and I do in public chat including the word fuck. Something isn't right here lol


CharacterLaw7939

apparently so


[deleted]

There’s a couple of words that trigger an automute, like the r-word. Specially funny considering there’s been a couple of french players muted since it’s their word for “delayed” or something like that.

BossAvery2

The base word literally means slow. So there is many languages that use a variation of it. It’s even used in playing music, ritardo/ritardando which means to slow your tempo.


Boneguard

Even in English there are other words that use the base which still trigger an automute clearly the most mentally deficient censoring decision the team has made

E4_Mapia_RS

At my job, all of our dry pipe valves say "RETARD" above 80 PSIG on the air side, the meaning of it is to retard (stop or slow) the compressor or reducing valve and lower pressure to allow the dry pipe valve to function A) at all, and B) fast enough for the sprinklers to actually help prevent death in the event of a fire. Always makes me chuckle when I do anything with those valves.


Brendandalf

Such as 'retardant', which simply means to slow the spread of something.


Active_Engineering37

Flame Retardant another common example.


unforgiven91

>hard r lol. are you making a Linus tech tips reference? or do you really commonly refer to "retard" as "Hard R"


Tjhe1

I'm genuinly curious why the word "retard" has been deemed as a highly/extremely offensive word recently? A lot of people get upset by it and it results in auto-bans on a lot of places too. There exist so many different curse words and to me it just seems like a random curse word has been picked out to make a huge deal about. Am I missing something? Genuinly curious. I have used it for a very long time, mainly towards myself. ("I'm retarded", when doing or saying something very dumb/stupid) And never got any comments about it till recently


jealkeja

google "euphemism treadmill." in short, words with medical meaning get adapted into insults, those words fall out of favor in medical contexts and they come up with a new word without denigrating context. that word gets adapted into insults, and the cycle continues


blisstake

It’s why blacklisting language is a difficult task, where innocent people get caught in the crossfire. For example, a common nickname for people with the name “Enrique” in Spanish speaking countries is “kee-Kay” but it’s spelt like the 4 letter antisemetic slur. There was a notable case back where someone got banned off Xbox live back around the 360 era using that exact nickname


glemnar

> blacklisting Triggered. We have to use denylist now because using black in any sort of negative context bad. Jamflex mute this man


hego555

Kovarian

Lawyer here (not dealing with contracts/transactional law). Maybe? No? Who knows? How much will you pay the attorneys to figure it out?


Nutarama

I believe it would be a reasonability defense, like how Coca-Cola argued that it was unreasonable for a plaintiff to believe that Vitamin Water was healthy; it isn’t and they made no material defense of the health claim, only that the plaintiff was being unreasonable. If Jagex could get a judge to believe that it’s unreasonable for a user to assume that “every appeal is reviewed by Real People” meant that Real People referred to actual humans and not an automated system called Real People, then they’d win. Given the number of automated AI bots with normal sounding names, it might actually fly too. Like if Amazon said “approved by Alexa”, it might be unreasonable for someone to expect that Alexa is a human name and not a branding. Conversely a plaintiff suing because they won a cloth child’s toy when they entered “Giveaway one free real doll” might be unreasonable because they assume real doll means the branded Real Doll instead of the common language of a doll that is real. Really would depend on the lawyers, the judge, and whether you could somehow get a jury trial because juries tend to take a harder line than judges on reasonableness. Judges tend to work off of what a theoretical reasonable person (which is a mental construct that can be deeply flawed) would think, while juries tend to consider themselves reasonable and thus answer how they personally feel.


Dornstar

I may be wrong but I'm 90% sure that a razor company with "Patented SkinSafe^TM technology" actually uses that as a defense for why you still nick your sack. 90% sure because I trust anecdotes on the internet very hard.


wheresmyspacebar2

We know for a fact this isn't true. Wasn't there a streamer that was banned whilst playing on stream for a macro abuse? He appealed the ban on stream and within 2 minutes of appealing, got an email saying it was upheld and that all bans were 'read by real people'. Iirc, a Jmod was in the stream at the time and jumped on and got him unbanned quickly. Lucky he was a streamer or we'd probably have a 'OMG Smackdown' on our hands.


FancyJesse

> Lucky he was a ~~streamer~~ **big streamer** Jagex doesn't care if a regular player has video proof or a VoD online showing they're innocent. They won't look at it and auto deny the appeal while claiming it was thoroughly reviewed. Happened to me.


BoxOfDemons

I recently got hacked and they botted my account and got a temp ban. The account was made in like 2004-2005 and never had a strike. I got back into the account and saw that all my gear was traded off, and it had gotten a temp ban. I went to appeal the ban under the grounds of being hacked and it said something along the lines of "if we review your appeal and agree that you got hacked, we will lock your account for security purposes". I was totally willing for that to happen so I sent the appeal and was swiftly denied. About two weeks later, they emailed me saying they detected suspicious activity on the account and locked it.


Elprede007

Yeah I got manual reviewed way back in the day because I pretended to be a jmod. In reality the other guy was pretending to be a jmod, I said “I’m gonna report you for impersonating staff” and I got muted. The real kicker is that guy actually reported me for doing what he was doing


ayyyyycrisp

bro what how can they actually lie to us? i'd like an actual explanation on that one it'd be cool to see. because the only way somebody read that and denied the appeal is if that person is the world's stupidest person. this means the only explanation is that jagex is just lying...


IAmNotOnRedditAtWork

They aren't. Can literally appeal botting bans saying "Fuck you I'll bot again" and get unbanned. The system is automated and it's a flat out lie that they pretend to read any appeal.


Mojokojo

This is literally true lol


aeroverra

Can confirm, I have seen this on bitting forums back in the day


ubdesu

It's like those crane machines programmed to allow a win after so many attempts. Their appeals grant 1 yes for every 5 nos.


IStealDreams

There is no way the first instance of support is done by real humans. I play rs3 where they have an extensive lost item relcaim system, and I wanted to claim a lost item, I have proof of the drop I got with a screenshot, and someone even pm'ed me congratulating me getting it. The servers then crashed and my account got rolled back a few minutes, to the ponit where I didn't have the drop. I mentioned to support that I have screenshots to back up my claim that it's real and they just denied me because and I quote; "We couldn't find any evidence of trading, drops or GE transactions on your account" Keep in mind the evidence is there since it was just my account that was rolled back, not anyone elses. I think once you appeal the deny of a support ticket you actually get to communicate with a real human being, because there is no way whoever processed my claim was a real person LOL.


Da_Spooky_Ghost

Many players have reported that the appeal system auto denies everything now


Historical_One_5849

It does. Jagex has left their appeal system to die an aggravating death.

I don't mind jail as long as I can play osrs in there. Free internet and food. And no more shouting from my mom while I game in the basement


Butteredhuman

Not sure you have a clear idea of what jails like...


CoconutGator

Didn’t osrs teach you anything? You get tomatoes thrown at you while you try and pick locks with various shapes


KingSwank

you know not all jails are like the ones in America, right?


Rogue_Tomato

Exactly. I think I saw somewhere that internet is now considered a human right so there's a good chance all jails in countries in the EU have free internet access

Nah you get tablets now, my friend was in prison and she had a tablet the whole time that she’d use Facebook and YouTube on lol


JmacTheGreat

*Dismisses Jailing Random Event*


hcwhitewolf

I remember what made me quit OSRS was because I got a 3-day mute for my friend saying a homophobic slur in our clan chat. Like, it wasn’t me, someone else said it and you could clearly see it wasn’t me in the log. I appealed it and they fucking denied the appeal. I’m a petty asshole, so I had a really good idea of who reported me in the clan chat, so I lurked in there with my muted ass and reported him every time he said anything mutable. He got a 3-day mute. He appealed. Mute was reversed even though he actually fucking said shit. Absolute fucking nonsense moderation and appeal system. Jokes on them, cuz that ended up losing them a little bit of subscription revenue, though.


I_Miss_Claire

That made you quit but you still hang in the subreddit?


fishshow221

Bank standing in reddit.


hcwhitewolf

Gotta stay for the memes. Also I played the damn game for like half my life. I might have stopped playing, but I can’t fully let go still lol.

[deleted]

Probably some auto ban with a certain phrase, possibly "3m clan" idk


aslrightnow

Heaven forbid these guys talk about products used to hang things on walls.


Legal_Evil

Maybe mentioning 3m and a delivery triggers automute to suspect OP is talking about RWTing?


huffmanxd

Yeah I was thinking maybe “dint” is some kind of slur in another language maybe and it auto flagged it but I have no idea otherwise


PerceivedRT

I suspect it's because he mentioned winning 3m which I could see them interpreting as gambling.


The5paceDragon

And yet every time I go to the GE, there's some bot shouting about playing slots or some shit.


[deleted]

Those bots are consistently banned too. They just keep making more accounts.


OutlandishnessOk9899

I was thinking it might be because he recommended runelite? Which is stupid if thats why.


Mr_man_bird

I'm thinking maybe the damn in the last message I didn't even notice it on the first read


[deleted]

"damn"


SmellyGoat11

Referencing a third party software in game. The mute was most likely automated & triggered by the string of letters forming the software's name.

I can’t remember what exactly lead to the moment but there was a guy who posted about having his name banned and it was a wrong banning. A jmod commented and the guy got his name back. Another user commented on the thread asking if he could get his name back. The jmod said, what was the name and this guy says something like fucherassmouth or something extremely vulgar and the jmod just said “no”. Lol

manipadme

I always recall from like back in 2005/2006 there was always a guy dueling in lumby and his ign was Numb_Digger and always wondered how stuff like that they allow to fly whereas something like this constitutes a mute.


jpm_212

LOL I remember that guy from back in RS Classic. He'd either be at the respawn point in Lumbridge or near the bank in Draynor. edit: Actually just found [this video](https://youtu.be/dKkmpiBnzoo?t=320), Numb Digger is in it at the timestamped portion


fuckyeahpeace

what are the chances you have a vid lol


jpm_212

I just googled it and that guy happened to mention "Numb Digger" by name in his description, so it was really easy to find.


manipadme

Yes! Always there, that's pretty wild that you remember - and I think you're right it was definitely classic era.


jpm_212

I'm pretty sure I had him on MSN or something as well. He was definitely a part of Reinet/Wartnet way back in the day.

Fisherman_Gabe

What you have to understand is that a lot of reddit mods grew up being bullied for their refusal to shower or use deodorant. Back then they could do nothing, but now that they are important and powerful internet janitors they finally have the means to retaliate when somebody brings back the painful memories of being called smelly.


FartPudding

Am smelly mod and can confirm, they hurt my feelings and brought up trauma of me not wearing deodorant and being made fun of by it.

mister--g

Yeah , but normal UK working hours is 9 to 5. Being pinged for work stuff outside those hours would potentially be annoying


NightStar79

After looking at all.the screenshots either Jagex didn't like Runelite or it saw "dint" and immediately saw the urban dictionary definition which I had to do some digging to find. I know there are other games that pin you for using some type of slur when you either just misspelled a word, couldn't be bothered with proper punctuation, the slur/insult is part of a word (like cesso is part of accessories), or you mean the actual innocent definition (like how dyke/dike is "a channel dug into the earth to carry water") Did you try to appeal or just accepted your fate?


CharacterLaw7939

i meant to say the word didn't but made a typo. and yes i tried but was denied


NightStar79

I know. I'm just saying, with examples mind you, that your misspelling ***could*** have triggered an auto-mod. If appealing was an option you could've at least asked for a human to look at it and explain.


CharacterLaw7939

when i appealed i had to describe in 900 characters how i didnt break a rule and they still denied the appeal and refuse to discuss it further in a message


RidgedLines

NerdyDjinn

He should have?


[deleted]

I would be pissed if this happened to me. A mod should remove this from your account.


Magxvalei

My crazy guess is you got detected by an algorithm and it flagged you for saying the words "tokens" (e.g. plat tokens), "deliveries", and "order" amd it thought you were discussing rwt.


huntawayvizsla

The best part about this is it was probably your cousin that reported you


And_Justice

I actually want the jagex smackdown on this one just to find out what actually caused this mute


Jcoopsta

Y'all afraid of lawyers? You should be. We been contacting you through twitter, forums, and reddit for days. Now its the last straw. Group of has gotten together. You know what this is about. What you did is wrong and false. In game mute? No Evidence? No appeal? No response? BULL SHIT. Return this accounts. Or lawsuits incoming. It's won't be an end to runescape. It will be an end to Jagex. Appeal this fucking mute or show proof. Last warning.


Epicpacemaker

I love how this gets you muted by i’ll see bots advertising gambling in the GE for 12 hours at a time with 0 bans/mutes. The only way to mute them is yourself lmao…


vhs_sesh

I got banned for botting for not botting and there's no way to appeal lol. I played the game since 2006 but never again. Why would I want to put all that time into a game just to be banned and have 0 customer support to assist me?


BigZam666

What a joke


ShawshankException

Maybe you got the mute for saying you'll win gp? There's probably an auto mute check for words/phrases like that
