actually i didnt use it at all, i just posted to tell the users, and the point of it is to uh... switch worlds faster?

btw you gotta wait 35 secs to get to another world.

they meant faster by not letting you click so much...
But now, you can't log in to world 1 when it's full, cause thats also againist the rules..
SS is becoming usless..

yea jagex don't endorse using 3rd party clients but you wont be banned for using ss

you won't get banned but is taking the risk of getting hacked worth it? is losing all your stuff and all that time down the drain any good? no, that is why jagex won't return stolen stuff even if you know who took it and even if you pay.

hehe you are totally paranoid ss does not have any keyloggers, trojans etc in it, how many times must people be told! has it not entered anyones mind that strider3282 is a lvl 119 with over 1550 skill total why would he need to hack anyone elses acount??? maybe (perish the thought!!) he just wanted to create a client to help people change worlds in rs!!!!

the problem is not with strider but don't forget that zybez hosts SS. a site attack is not impossible and install a keyogger on the files hosted there. i'm not putting all the blame on strider but he is vulnerable to malicious attacks. don't forget that there are other people who wants to see SS go down so a malicious attack is going to happen whether we like it or not.

i wouldn't personally recommend it to others because if they got hacked, they'll blame me. it is better to play the old fashioned and safe way.

It's posted in rs general discussion forum that SS is illegal, so don't bother to use it, if i see anyone using it, i'm going to report them, not to be mean or anything, you are not allowed to use it!

i said it is unbanned which means now its legal. it has been approved by andrew himself, if you dont believe me then check it out at runescapecommunity forums.

if it is approved by andrew, then it should be on the official rs forums. everybody can browse it from there not other fansites.

as it is, any third party is too risky to use and jagex maintains their policy of NOT endorsing any third party client. if you lose anything, you'll never get it back as jagex got a policy of not returning your stuff.

i'd rather just use the official client and open other windows for whatever i need. it is not too much trouble to switch between windows. i haven't changed my pass and i've never been hacked.

rocket when it was illegal jagex claimed to have a program to detect it so they don't need people like you grassing others up,

edit: i have just sent off a customer support query regarding swiftswitch and should the reply be of the nature that anyone using ss will be banned, i will discontinue use of it.
