How does Runescape detect bots

Now I don't want to know how to make a bot or where to get one. I'm just curious, how does runescape detect bots? I know auto bots that require you to use F1-F12 are easy to detect, but what about the ones that make your actions seem human. My little cousin was using an auto miner to raise his level, and I looked at it for a while. The button clicks worked at human speed, it responded expertley to random events, it clicked random spots on the rocks and items, and on top of that he was talking to other runescape people. How was he detected, I don't play runescape or create bots for runescape. I'm just curious to how jagex could detect something that well made.

A bot usally does not use text in the game so a person mining nonstop for hours who does not reply when asked a question may be classified as a bot. Also people who advertise for a website in much faste text than possible are definatly bots. lol

I doubt they can ban you for ignoring a person as some people are just rude like that. But my cousin was always looking at the screen and talking with his in-game friends.
