    I thought that OSB was owned and created by someone who works at Jagex?

    That makes sense! Okay thanks

    I just find it so stupid I was enjoying RuneLite just started using it and noticed a lot of FPS improvements I didn’t care about the features, the only thing I liked was the way RuneScape ran without lag

    Ok guys tomorrow I’ll make a runescape client and ask for money for shit features then I’ll give it all to Jagex.

    10000% allowed I’m sure right?

    Try suing me

    Yes, he worked at jagex before. but as stated in Q&A they're talking with them also like atm. Seems like they want to take ideas and implement Plugins and add more stuff to their own vanilla client.

    (it also makes easier to detect 3rd party clients) but i think OSB is here to stay as long as jagex gets revenue.

    also it isnt so bad to pay 3 bucks each month to get pro plugins lol

    maybe jagex should look into investing money into osb and buy them out like any normal company would do. since mod ash said "the clients are built around love for the game"

    If these numbers are correct. 21.91% of RuneScape players are currently using RuneLite .

    3,640 people in their discord. Way to make RuneLite more popular.

    Very reminiscent of the approach Jagex took to private servers in late 2012/early 2013 when they threatened almost all the top 10 servers that they would take legal action if they did not shutdown. Interestingly half the servers ignored Jagex and no such action was taken. Jagex has been threatening legal action for over a decade but has still never taken anyone to court. Perhaps this is something RuneLite should bare in mind.

    The other interesting parallel is the rumours of a non-disclosure agreement between OSBuddy and Jagex of which the connections are well documented. Much was made of a financial agreement being struck between Jagex and Soulsplit back in 2012, a time when SS had a massive monopoly over RSPS and took a significantly large proportion of traffic and revenue from the market. When all the other servers were threatened, nothing was said about Soulsplit.

    tl;dr the possible model Jagex use is clear when dealing 3rd party client, rsps (or even botting?) providers, form a (financial?) agreement with one organisation that dominates the market then threaten the competition with legal action. That way some of the loss of potential revenue to underground markets is retained.

    You would think so, but that would involve common sense and taking advantage of opportunities to improve their game.

    RuneLite:
    Players online: 13882

    OSB:
    There are 26372 OSBuddy users online right now.


    Their ideology for removing 3rd party clients is ridiculous.
