A Runescape auto woodcutter is one of the many macros that have been built for the game of Runescape. A macro is a program that will take control of your account and play the game for you. This is against the rules of the game, and Jagex will easily find and ban anyone that uses these programs. An Auto Woodcutter is built to, as the name states, cut wood. This will allow you to leave your computer while your player will automatically chop wood, getting you experience points. The thing is, if you are not going to play the game, why play the game? That goes for anyone who cheats in any form.

Most of these programs are click the color programs. Therefore, if you were to pick a color of tree, then the program will search that color and then click it over and over. Almost never will you find an actual working program most of them contain keyloggers. Keyloggers are a form of computer virus. They will not harm the computer, but rather harm the person who uses the computer. They can steal your Runescape account, your credit card information, and anything else. They simply "log" every key you type and then send it to the creator. If you type in your Runescape username and password while having one of these viruses on your computer, then you can expect it to be gone. The same goes for your credit card information, if you buy something online after getting a keylogger on your computer, then you have just put yourself in a lot of danger. Imagine having a maxed out credit card just because you wanted to cheat in a game.

I cannot say it enough; cheating is just not the answer. It is much just simpler to go chop the tree yourself. It gives you no risk of having your account banned because, you are not! If you get tired, take a break. It is not hard to take a break. Then, after you have recharged, you can go back to the game and keep working.

Let's say you found a working Runescape auto woodcutter and decided to try it, just once, for an hour. Therefore, you turn it on and go watch television. You come back an hour later and find out that oops, the account you have worked on for a year has just been banned. If you do not think that is possible, let me tell you this. Jagex have their own little bots. They actively search the game to find cheaters. When they do, they quickly alert Jagex, then Jagex will ban that account. Jagex has no tolerant for cheaters, they have proved that time and time again.

On January 19, 2006, Jagex decided to show the cheaters just how serious they were. Therefore, they banned over 15,000 Runescape accounts. They were all cheaters. If you still think, you can get away with it by making a brand new account, cheating, and then throwing it away, think again. In their news article, they wrote this:

"As well as having new systems to detect people cheating in this way, we are also using a new system to go through and ban other accounts used by these cheats, so they can't just cheat on a 'throwaway' account they don't care about, and expect their other accounts to be unaffected."

Therefore, before you even try to get one of these macros, I would stop and consider the consequences. Jagex still bans thousands of accounts a month. They WILL find you if you cheat. There is no magic bubble to protect your account from a ban. They will not hesitate if they find you cheating. Remember this - I have played the game for many years, and I can tell you, it is much better to do it yourself. Happy Playing.
