The RuneScape client has always been "open source".
People have been decompiling and deobfuscating the RuneScape client since 2005.
Since it's written in Java it's not hard to do.
They do have some pretty smart ways of easily detecting bots. They do live streams of them teleporting bots to a world and killing them all before banning them.
It actually quite hard to build a reliable bot for RS.
