Back in October, there was a big war against the bots to finally put an end to the BS of struggling to mine, get logs, or anything that the multiple bots keep eating up before your reach. The Jagex mods and devs finally took action and started wiping them out quickly and effectively. This also helps Runescape itself since it greatly reduces the server load and overloads caused buy the bots. Though the bots has been wiped and more are continued to be wiped out, the market prices still took a major hit due to the heavy botting and will take time to recover....
