I don't think its accurate to say a large percentage of the community is botting. My understanding is that the overwhelming majority of the botting is by organised groups making money out of selling the gold they make.

I think a large percentage of the community is buying botted gold, but random people botting to get 99 mining or runecrafting or whatever is relatively rare (and relatively sucessfully detected) compared to gold farms.
