Getting cosmetics you'll literally never use is very "bleh". And obviously it shouldn't be some rewarding thing since it's an anti bot mechanic. But giving useful rewards couldn't hurt like say free vote points, or if you're skilling maybe get a small xp lamp that rewards xp for that skill. Some loyalty points, random skill supplies or something small, yet oddly rewarding for no botting.

Unfortunately the cosmetics are given for a reason, I highly doubt the random question rewards will be changed to something more useful to players.

Would be nice for them to change to something that is actualy usefull and not something that most players just drop anyway (I would assume).

 

And as mentioned in the suggestion it does not have to be something big but rather just something usefull.

 

Support from me.

I’ll support removing the cosmetics but I do not support adding anything useful.


Imagine the new Meta to obtain resources/points becoming spam clicking an activity until an anti bot random popped up.

It has been suggested in the past to add useful items as possible rewards for answering random event questions. XP lamps will never get added on Alora as the XP rates here are much better compared to OSRS, and there’s plenty of other ways to get resources such as from the Konar drop table. Vote points as a reward is not a good idea as it’s easy to get vote points anyways, and it would de-value vote books in general. There should not be a need to reward players for not botting on Alora other than being able to still play the game.

No support.

No thanks. The current system is fine you can just drop the cosmetic items.

Not really interested personally. It's just a check to see if you are not cheating, I don't feel like that's worthy of a reward. If anything has to be changed, id say just remove the cosmetic reward at all :)

No support. Literally just ;;empty them if they build up. Shouldn't need to be rewarded for not cheating

I do not support the suggestion of adding something else to the bot-check reward list, however I would support a suggestion which has the bot-check reward toggle option, so player could choose if he wants the cosmetics or not.

Eucalyptus What's the reasoning for the cosmetics? It's the part i hate most about the random questions.

 

The reason is in the title "Anti-Bot". They serve a valid purpose with an undisclosed reason we will not be saying as to "Why". Sorry that's a poor answer for everyone but it's how it is.

 

As to this being mentioned a multitude of times in the Suggestions section of the forums and generally acquiring the same response across all forms of players. I don't see this changing anytime soon if ever. I myself just shift drop click them as I obtain them. It's not that much more extra effort to get rid of them if you wish to not make a collection.

 

@Learn I've learned that if you wish to keep the Mime Top you can: Equip mime top > Deposit "Equipped" Items in the lower right hand corner of the Bank interface and it should successfully deposit the Mime Top.

I think this would be a good idea.
