get a clue or get out.

[mvgulik]

uh how is that a fail? When you read post's do you just read certain parts?

Yep, everything up to the first point the user makes a big FAIL. So your mail was nice and short for me.

(left (boring) topic)

Like 90% of the player base already has the bots or has someone else to make them for them. Removing those topics isn't gonna do much at this point.

a clue of?
I am more interested in what mod's have to say and I'm uncertain what this is addressing

[Onionfighter]

Sabinati is a mod, and he is telling you to get a clue.

The game is no longer run out of a bedroom.
Extra players aren't causing lag. At least not at the levels they are now.
Do some research about what mods think about botting and why they are on the forums.

I know he's a mod that's why I was more inclined to hear what he had to say.
And I am not exactly sure where to look.
Could you possibly inform me?

Kind of the same argument as it was in the auto hearth thread, you are saying you would rather only a select few people should have the advantage of botting? Botting does make a difference in a villages quality or your own characters progression, and given the fact that people going to have the biggest influence on you and the rest of the world, you would still prefer that a smaller percentage of the game have the upperhand of bots?

I'd like to add some support to byrdiebop.

I don't use a bot either, i can't pretend i havn't been very much tempted and understand those who do give in to the temptation BUT - i've managed to build up a strong and all round char, a large, smoothly running village and have all the products of the game, all by myself.

It's taken time, a lot of hours and hard work but i'm kinda proud of it

Had i used bots it would of seemed like a 'fail'.

Well I sure hope you don't use a custom client!

(That's just as much "cheating" as those bots you seem to abhor)

I don't believe anywhere in this forum did I say I want a select few to have botting....anywhere.
I want it stopped as much as possible.
