From this thread below. http://forum.runescape.com/forums.ws?14,15...58916870,goto,2 That post isnt 100% official, but they do state later that Jagex is working on new policy in regard to SK and 3rd party software so I'm guessing that its not going to be good for clans in general.

Well, let's wait until this official post & new policy, but wow, just wow, I don't think that Mod knows the significance of Swiftkit lol. Also, Lol @ that guide, I should probably update it xD ~Abs --------------------  "I may not agree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

better not snitch. Theres no way for them to tell if you use, because it uses your default browser, it still sends the same user ident, either Explorer or Mozilla Firefox Basicly, I would bet For_Sooth on the fact that, as long as you don't anounce in game that you use SK, they can't catch you. --------------------    Dragon boots:29 Whips:2 | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Sgtswordfish Group: Guest Posts: 1737 Member No.: 1758 Joined: March 9, 2009 Total Events Attended: 64 | the reason why sk is forbidden is due to its encouragement of rwt. i don't know about you guys but the fact that the creators of sk have advertisements for ways to make gp easy and how to buy gp for real world cash. accounts. etc secondly sk is taking away from jagex the fact that instead of players relying on jagex they now rely on sk for their information needs.in other words their argument is sk is using jagex stuff that is made to the public for knowledge but not to be added or used in a way against their terms of usage. in other words its all become very technical =D corporations do this all the time. mainly to step on the small fries... also. swifkit is capable of things besides being a "tool" i've seen certain things that break rules in rs and i think jagex is aware of sk somewhat abilities. --------------------  Goals 2011  | ||||

Thats fucking rude of you. I am seriously fucked off that you would imply that I would 'snitch' on my clan, I guess the time I put into WG isnt enough to show that I'm dedictaed. I guess this is the thanks I get for tipping WG off to a potential crack down on something that has always been against the rules. -------------------- Old awards wat Most Mature & Most Honourable Most Dedicated|IRC Freak|Best Emeritus Placeholder lolz | ||||

After looking at several threads, I have to say three things: 1. Go ahead and use Swiftkit. 2. Do not say that you use Swiftkit ingame. 3. Screw Jagex rules, I, personally, am going to use Firefox(which, in f2p, blocks the ads due to Jagex's auto-resizing of the client) with FlashBlock(as I hate most flash, ads or not), and I am not going to change for anything. -RobbieThe1st -------------------- Old Avatar - Paypal donation link  I am left handed, and proud of it!
