Wanna see my dystopian vision?
Our industrialized part of the world gets fat sitting behind a computer playing half a day, while working the other half to be able to pay games/botters. Asia and the rest of the world gets to do the "dirty work" of gaming 24/7 in order for us to be able to cheat. So? Yes, life's cruel, but we don't have the power to change that, or do we? I say, our civilization won't be around for much longer anyway, so I don't care and hope the RL apocalypse comes before this shit actually happens.
Back to our little world...
JLo can ban/kill/reduce lp on people who cheat/bot/(buy from botters?), but they won't, which is understandable of them. Monitoring logs is boring and playing Big Brother is equal to being a dick. Jorb might be into drawing dicks, but from what I've heard, he isn't one.
What other options are there? Spyware, fuck yeah! I LOVE it when some shady game studio's spyware programs infiltrate my computer and scan it. It's not a necessary evil, it's installing fucking spyware just to be allowed to play a fucking game. Privacy ftw!
My opinion is: if a game can be exploited/botted, then it should be. It's the devs' "fault", after all, that they made a part of the game boring or exploitable. If things go out of proportion, there'll be drastical dev-sided interventions anyway. As long as they don't, I couldn't care less.
To me, commercial botters and their customers from other games are laughable at most. They're fueling a mechanic that, over a longer timespan, will ruin their own game and (guessing by current trends) affect the whole human civilization in the end.
Also, is it really true that 20% of MMOers buy stuff from third parties? Because if it is, Haven will soon be profitable enough for its own asian poverleveling agency

tl;dr
Who cares, I wanna play haven. God fucking damn PCs. Anyone feel like programming a mobile java version?
