For a 200-ish UA account it's worth it, if you're looking to get into RS ( it'll give you a way to make some progress in regards to gear and what not )
Ah but if that shitty game still has bots everywhere, don't even bother. I remember bots at red chins ( at the time the best way to make gold with the Hunter skill ) taking EVERYTHING.
Just an opinion from an ex RS no lifer.

I used to bot 4-5 RS accounts at once during the day when I was in school and then sell them for irl money. Was decent for some extra cash. Apparently they did something with botters a while back though and banned a ton right across the board, at one point all servers which had roughly 1k players on at all times had around 300 lol.
They catch botters because they have a bot report button now and people report anyone that doesn't respond to a message and an admin ussualy pops up and says talk to me or get banned...Had it happen to me on main...luckily i was there when it happened LOL.
I used to tell them to fuck themselves when someone annoyed me like that in the game.
Anyway, to be fair, 100 ua takes less than a week (not even with good shit) whereas it takes a lot longer than that to get that level in RS. You also have to take into consideration that RS accounts don't lose stats due to game wipes, death, etc. whereas Haven accounts do all of the above. Because of this, I think he should be able to get a better character than 100 ua. That said, 99 Hunting is pretty fucking useless. He'd be far better off selling a character with 99 hitpoints, 99 attack, 99 def, 99 str, 99 magic, etc. for a H&H character. Even then, it's probably not worth it due to the nature of this game (easily corruptible game data, permadeath, bugabuse, server hacks, etc).
