Runescape Autominers Don't Exist

Sept 2007 Update: Yes, there are auto-miners, auto-fishers, auto-wood choppers available. This is a natural progression of any online game. Keep in mind, however, that if you use them and get caught, you risk losing your account with all of your hard work. If you're going to bot, do it on a throw-away account, not your main.

That being said, here's my original entry which is still valid as well:

All over on the 'net there are references to the Runescape Autominer that used to be useful to players.

I believe that was either in the Runescape 1 days or early early in the Runescape 2 days because in the year I've played Runescape 2 (which is the Runescape most people know now) this bot hasn't worked.

Jagex made some changes to the display of its software to account for things which track clicks and try to replicate them to be things like autominers, etc. Now, your Runescape screen (above the chat window) drifts slightly every once in a while - just a few pixels, but enough to screw up autominers and autoclickers. [sept 2007 update - Jagex will continue to make modifications that will screw with your autoclickers and you'll have to continue to upgrade/update/fix your side to make it work again. If you are very good at this type of thing, go for it. If you're not, don't waste your time]

So, don't waste your time with them. They don't work for more than about 20 minutes at a time if you can get them to work at all.
