Botting runescape is how many of us got into programming. Long live botting. If you want to do it, do it on an account that doesnt effect the economy.

AutoRune and SCAR! Though, I never cared much for Delphi.

This is also how I learned programming, though mainly with Simba, the spiritual successor to SCAR: https://github.com/Villavu/Simba

for me it was autoHotKey, amazing programming language with a built in recorder!

Great scripting language, but has a pretty troubled past.

Once the original creator moved on from ownership, the new owner also had a business with Runescape botting.

The story is that it didn't go well for the maintainers of Autohotkey until another person took the reigns.

Paris/ins3 (the RuneScape botting-related owner of AHK) had a fairly checkered past from what I understand, but most of it was before my time.

The direction RSBot took under his leadership was less than ideal. I lamented the loss of RSBot 2 and local scripts. The subsequent versions, dependent on the SDN, were never as good.
