The first person to ever achieve 99 Range went to Jagex after being banned for using third-party software. It was translation software for English to Russian. However, before he went to them he made a second account, and did it again before anyone else was 99 Range just to prove he could do it as many times as needed because of the method he'd worked out claiming it would only ever take him two weeks, and nineteen hours to max the skill with 12 hours played per day. So, this has actually happened.
as soon as they acknowledged the bug, they banned all the accounts that abused it until it was fixed and then unbanned them , they made a reddit post about it , only 3 people used it, and no one abused it , literally not a single whip got sold on the GE, one of the guy contacted jagex and made a reddit post about it (after the hotfix) . so that's why they didn't got perma banned.
from a J-Mod "Hey, I think it's best to give some further information on some details in regards to all of this. Firstly, it's worth mentioning just 3 people took advantage of this bug and none of the duplicated items entered circulation of the economy to negatively effect it. Unfortunately the major offender took full advantage of this for their own benefit, with no intention of reporting the issue at hand. This has resulted in a permanent ban. Another player has had full wealth gained from abusing this removed from their account. The reason the temporary ban for A Friend was removed was due to a minor mistake in investigation on my part. After a review, it was identified that the player had reported it to us, didn't gain from the bug, and our evidence on second review suggests it was done to gain an understanding of how the bug works, this is no fault of our Customer Support team. Hope that clears things up."
Complaining you got banned because you botted? One time or 10000 time you still broke a rule...Clearly states no botting is allowed. You sir win the award for the most dumb comment.
A Friend has officially become the Batman of Runescape, breaking the rules to bring criminals to justice. With a karambwan on his utility belt and a "I am not Middle Eastern" shirt clad across his torso, he will bring law to the lawless world of Runescape. Bye on, friend. Bye on.
hey man, I'm a new subscriber, and I gotta say that at first I wasn't a fan of your videos but over a little time I've come to love your content. just wanted to say that, keep up the good work
Honestly, now that you've excavated this, they should really just add a "Lucky Abyssal Vine Whip" that works the exact same as the AVW, except THAT is what you get from combining a whip vine and a lucky whip, and disassembling it gives you the lucky whip again. That would immediately fix this bug.
I don't think you realize. Just by making videos you're making so many peoples days better. Even if its unintentional you make every day for me day way better, ily
"i will not play with this account anymore" said about a 99 lvl account, i play this game for 10 years and i'm not even close to this level, i'll just gonna sit here and cry in silence
"The Lucky abyssal whip was a rare item that could be won from the Squeal of Fortune. It has the same bonuses as the regular abyssal whip, but it is untradeable and has a different appearance. It cannot be recoloured, attached to a whip vine, or made into a lava whip." (Runescape Wikia) Really strange that you managed to do that, then. They definitely needed a regression test to avoid this to happen.
Hey a friend! I heard you was in Cambridge today with all the streamers. I work at the restaurant that they all came to eat at but they said you were in the hotel editing a video. I missed my one chance of meeting you for that video, it better be a good one. :D!!!!
When this happened, did you figure out the bug on your own? Or did someone tell you about it? I have not been on RS3 since the orginal update, so idk anything about it at this point. Love the vids!
Overzealous mod that is trying to outrun the shadow of Chrissto, and Reach: BAN THAT BUG ABUSER! Some other Mod: Oh wait... He paid us HOW much money? Oh shit... That's Davy's alt. Unban that shit, he fam. How I imagined the real-time progression of these events.
im not sure about the lucky whip its self but i believe my lucky tasset was reclaimable as of over a year ago. and I purchased serpentine rapiers speciffaclly for the reclaim feature. The reclaim feature has been around for more then a few months.
From mod to perma banned. This is the legacy of a friend.
David Leiva lmaooooo
Temporary ban.. for finding a bug, not using it for his gain, and I assume reporting it with footage
the hero we need
David Leiva The ballad of karambwan

1:09 A friend vs deliberately.
Who will win?
Nissan717 Delibera erredha ahhh
Eggy Soldier round 1 goes to deliberately

A Friend the type of nigga to go to Jagex after he's been banned
He's gunna kick all their asses with those sweet Lithuanian Army combat moves.
AdrieAgent Literally Litt

Kakarot that's know when you know he is a gangster

do you think you are clever while you typed that im really curious
that should be a t shirt
its karambwahnn not karambwan.
ReturnOfWilderness fuck off paul
ReturnOfWilderness Lives by the scam, ends with the ban.
Come back when you have a bug for infinite Karambwans.
Well, he could have sold the whips and bought all the Karambwans he wanted.
I don't know the joke with karambwans can someone explain me that? :)
Got banned for bug abusing lol (INFINITE WHIPS) (LITTLE DID THEY KNOW I WHIPPED EMILY)
WRONG seriously though RIP fucking account after this video, just showed everyone how to bug abuse if anything changes to make this happen again
Loot from 10h of bug abuse
WRONG *(little did they know i gave emily cancer) lol
SB Gaming, they fixed this, and people who want to find bugs always try things like this, so it's no big deal. It's nothing new.
Got banned for bug abusing lol (INFINITE WHIPS)(GONE SEXUAL)
Would've been better
Spends £13,000 in spins for lucky whip... gets banned straight away.. Jagex wins again...
as soon as they acknowledged the bug, they banned all the accounts that abused it until it was fixed and then unbanned them , they made a reddit post about it , only 3 people used it, and no one abused it , literally not a single whip got sold on the GE, one of the guy contacted jagex and made a reddit post about it (after the hotfix) . so that's why they didn't got perma banned.
why would people be so nice to runescape 3 jagex like that? there should have been dozens of bots doing this shit fucking shit up
@@BraveCat9927games dead
1:08 "We have evidence to prove that you deliberdit-uhhh... exploited an in-game bug" You gave up real quick on that one.

Tyler Corness the saying "dont do the crime if you're not willing to do the time" comes to mind.

TorvestaRS no
TorvestaRS yeah what ever more vids of your sister
That's a nice surprise from A Friend :D
A Friend must keep a library of byes so he could attach one after each of his videos. This one must've slipped.
1:00
Jagex: your account has been temporarily banned for bug abuse
Dovydas: YESSS
offence expiry: 15 may 2018 and that is not him main rs3 account.
did u even watch the video?
To everyone saying rs3 is easycape
I'll have you know it takes an entire 2 minutes and 15 seconds to get a full invent of whips
So think again sweety
LOLLLLLLLLLL
to people say rs3 is easy scape... I'll have you know our daxe costs over 1m, yours costed you 50k....
Matthew Maltzoff Yes, there's never been a glitch of any kind in OSRS, just thousands upon thousands of bots! :)
Tried out rs3 today. Got Statius Warhammers after 5 kills at revs. Hardest 52m ever. Fuck off. Lol
Thameos And it's not even close to 7 to 1. The ratio is 5.4 to 1.
Sounds like the lucky whip wasn't so lucky after all
GETTING INFINITE WHIPS(LITTLE DID THEY KNOW I WAS ABUSING A BUG)
A Friend has officially become the Batman of Runescape, breaking the rules to bring criminals to justice. With a karambwan on his utility belt and a "I am not Middle Eastern" shirt clad across his torso, he will bring law to the lawless world of Runescape. Bye on, friend. Bye on.
- Are you wish to proceed?
- Yes, I wish.
Banned for bug abusing then invited to Jagex HQ? Rest in pieces a friend, his last goodbye ever.
My secret money making method is ruined!
1:09 6:49, that fact that one of the most dedicate players and ex-PMod has now become banned for bug abuse... I love A Friend.
hey man, I'm a new subscriber, and I gotta say that at first I wasn't a fan of your videos but over a little time I've come to love your content. just wanted to say that, keep up the good work
I think ive watched all of your videos. Great content!
Honestly, now that you've excavated this, they should really just add a "Lucky Abyssal Vine Whip" that works the exact same as the AVW, except THAT is what you get from combining a whip vine and a lucky whip, and disassembling it gives you the lucky whip again. That would immediately fix this bug.
Enjoy your vacation A Friend, we will miss you!
A friend is the type of guy to bug abuse because he got demoted
Some newb walks up a random ladder in Falador and shits his pants when he sees 9 mil of whips on the ground
RIP P mod comeback.
6:49 wiki: it cannot be attached to a whip vine, whoever wrote that is a liar and probably used that, kek.
I liked the cut in the video where you picked the whips back up, and only dropped one. Pretty smooth :)
I don't think you realize. Just by making videos you're making so many peoples days better. Even if its unintentional you make every day for me day way better, ily
Gets banned, then gets invited to Jagex. Well done.
*gets year long ban for bug abuse*
"Well, time to travel straight to the people who banned me to appear in their straming event."
Bless this man.
Got banned for abusing a glitch. Gets to go to Jagex for sneak peek.
The downside of having pay to win, had they just kept to the original whip and no "lucky" items this wouldn't even be a problem.
Im Starting to Freakout WHERE IS THE NEW VIDEO. I think I can feel the video uploading into the internet. I feel it comming.
In case you didn't know, you can drag an item out of your bank to destroy them immediately.
A true friend wouldn't make you tune into a jagex stream.
Not the question is if they only temp banned because you spent so much money on the account
Verlisify yep
Wow I didn’t know you played rs, love the Pokémon vids
Verlisify looking for clickbait
no, its a bug abuse moderate, ive gotten that ban on 3 accounts and its always been a 1 year ban
"i will not play with this account anymore" said about a 99 lvl account, i play this game for 10 years and i'm not even close to this level, i'll just gonna sit here and cry in silence
Who else remembers when whips were 3 million each? That really made me feel old when I saw that price check.
Not PMOD anymore, let's bug abuse!
He got rid of everything, and he didn't post it until it was fixed.

1:05 to 1:10 had me crying, good try A Friend :)
pewds has bro army. a friend has friends! bam
Breaking bad season 6 - Runescape version
6:49 what ? Haha
JZA VI lmfao I thought I was the only one who didn't understand that for a sec
Its a friends watermark.
He was so happy when he said he was bug abusing lol.
Hey a friend! I heard you was in Cambridge today with all the streamers. I work at the restaurant that they all came to eat at but they said you were in the hotel editing a video. I missed my one chance of meeting you for that video, it better be a good one. :D!!!!
Reads title: ''Got banned for bug abusing lol (INFINITE WHIPS)'' Oh so you went from a jagex playermoderator to returnofwilderniss lol
akinfenwa!!!
Mourad yea
Don't bring me into this fellar.
Ye, A Friend delivers on actual content however
If you can't spell "Wilderness" don't even comment
secret 'bye' located at 6:49 don't tell anyone or it could be removed
That random "byeeeeee" at 6:50 xD
6:49 the byeeee cracked me up
Gets banned for bug abuse, then goes to visit Jagex next day lmao, gonna be pretty awkward
Luckily he is a youtuber so he won't actually get banned
"Set up 10 accoun- BYEEE" - A Friend 2017
who are the gray jedi?
When this happened, did you figure out the bug on your own? Or did someone tell you about it? I have not been on RS3 since the orginal update, so idk anything about it at this point.
Love the vids!
it was posted on reddit for a few minutes before it was taken down
"set up 10 accountBYEEE- 30 billion a day."
Nice one.
This is not a bannable offense in my book. They just made a stupid mistake and afriend pointed them to it
"I got banned by jagex"2 mins later"I'm going to jagex"
A Friend is so bored he WANTS to be banned lmao
Gets Unmodded and banned and still gets invitations to jagex hq. Congratulations . A "Savage" Friend
OMG WTF! abyssal whip is really 79k in RS3!!?? I cant believe back in 2007 was 3mill and not many people had it!
6:50 A_friend.exe has stopped working
when showing the lucky whip wiki page it said "cannot be recoloured, attached to a vine whip or (some other option)" lol nice one jamflex
that random "BYE!" @ 6:48 :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
funniest part is it was only a moderate ban so even if you abused this and made bank you only miss 2 days of scaping lmao.
Overzealous mod that is trying to outrun the shadow of Chrissto, and Reach: BAN THAT BUG ABUSER!
Some other Mod: Oh wait... He paid us HOW much money? Oh shit... That's Davy's alt. Unban that shit, he fam.
How I imagined the real-time progression of these events.
never seen someone so happy to be banned
That moment when full inv whips is 1,9m but bought my first one for like 3.5 -4m
99 in all stats. 120 dungen skills too... Nice. How long did it take to get there?
Bye was prerecorded at 6:48 my life has been ruined and utterly destroyed forever
"i didnt gain anything.. i only lost my moderator status, then abused a duplication glitch and got caught .. .but i swear im innocent"
6:49 the bye caught me off guard
im not sure about the lucky whip its self but i believe my lucky tasset was reclaimable as of over a year ago. and I purchased serpentine rapiers speciffaclly for the reclaim feature. The reclaim feature has been around for more then a few months.
Afriend, you should be a Jmod.
Damn RIP not p2w you were always the best hardworking main on rs3 😓
It's really rare to get one of those lucky whips anyway, I bet there wasn't much abuse of this bug.
So glad you make this video so Jagex can fix this! You risking ur account to!
6:50 LITTLE DO THEY KNOW I HAVE AN EARLY "BYE"
instead of a bye at the end we get it 30seconds too early
never saw someone so happy for being banned
Banned for bug abuse, until they noticed you were a youtuber. Thats jagex logic.
6:48 that bye lol
Your account was banned! A Friend: "YES!!"
i dont even play rs anymore, not even 2007 ever since my membership expired a few months ago, but i still like to watch videos of it
A friend is the type of nigga that says YES after getting banned.
how do you exactly, find this out A friend? I doubt you were combining your vine whip with a lucky whip then thought maybe i'll check Diango.
Rs3 mod at jagex: So a friend u like to bug abuse?
A friend: No it was just for a test vide-
Rs3 mod at jagex: leave
serious question, how about the lucky dragon armour with the armours ournament kits?
If you hadn't bought so many keys this would have been a perm lmao
I...I think he said "byeeeee" while he was on the whip description.
lmao the woodcutting sounds in the background
I like how fair you play this game.
Rich get richer SMH :/
Flames dumb get dumber ☝️
where did that guy go? i miss him :(
If you want to destroy items in the future, you can drag it out of your bank and it will destroy it.
The end of the video! 😂😂😂 "Blet"! 😂😂 taip ir toliau
Watch out for the penguin sir
If it weren't for Tresure Hunter microtransactions, this wouldn't have happened. smh...
