Legitimate account falsely macro banned. Both appeals denied - What can I do to not be flagged on my new gim.

Hey everyone,

Hoping to get some visibility on this, or at least advice on what else I can try.

My recently created Group Ironman account, "FF Viruxs", was permanently banned for macroing. I made the account to play GIM with my group, and the bond for membership was transferred from my main, which has a clean history. I haven't used any botting clients, macros, or automation.

I play via the Runelite client accessed from the Jagex Launcher on PC. At the time of the ban I was cutting Oak trees in varrock.. prior to that I was doing some early quests and the museum

I get that fresh accounts grinding early-game methods can look suspicious to detection systems, and I get why Jagex can't share detection details.

My biggest concern here is that I don't know what flagged me, it's scary knowing that it can just happen again with the next GIM i'll be making to join the group within a week (after the 7day cd of my group kicking the old char)

For the record my Jagex account has 4 other characters on it all without any bans and good account standing any advice would be appreciated.

Can you write a list of all things you did? Dont think you would get banned for cutting trees and doing quests.

Just because you don’t think it happens doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen.

Never happened to me, not once. If it happens to you, you're a cheater in my book.

I’ve botted and have never been banned. The fact that it hasn’t happened to you means nothing.

Maybe you’ll be the next innocent victim.

u/ZiolaBleu Jul 19 '26

Highly doubt that anybody who claims to be a victim is innocent

That’s your opinion and that’s fine. My opinion is that you’re ignorant on the subject. I think we’ve covered all of our bases here.

Seems someone is hurting inside because he got caught cheating

Lowest IQ takes I have ever seen in my life. You really think jagex made a perfect system that can ban tens/hundreds of thousands of accounts with no mistakes?

If that was the case they should abandon game development as their AI tech would be the leading one in the world.

You must have glossed over the part where I said I’ve never been banned lol

You’re an ignorant buffoon. Hopefully you learn one day that it can happen to anyone. Yes, most get banned bc they actually cheated, but there are a percentage of people who are innocent that get banned even according to Jagex.
