I reported one or more players for cheating but received no inbox message, and they are still in game. Why?
We see around half of reported accounts for macroing aren't actually macroing - even though they may look like they are. For example, players on mobile often do repetitive tasks without interacting with others, and players often report them for macroing.
Multiboxing can lead to similar effects. So we may leave a reported account unbanned if we're not yet confident that it's macroing.
An account may also return to the game after being banned, such as if its ban was a temporary warning.
Will we eventually get messages about all reports?
We are seeing how actioned macro reports go first then we will explore other report avenues later in 2025.
Where will I see my notification if action has been taken?
All messages will go to your Message Centre. You can get there by going to your Account Settings via the RuneScape or Old School Homepages.
Alternatively you can get to your Message Centre via the in-game Lobby by selecting either of these icons:
