Cut the playerbase in half, that seems like a good idea.

I'm sorry but I don't understand what I'm missing.
I didn't think what I had just said was a bad suggestion.
Clarify yourself?

no need to call me ignorant bullshit on the other thread. :/

Im pretty sure hes saying Jorb knows of the bots, and is ok with them. All of those searched within that link provided show jorb saying its ok and he understands mundane tasks being botted. So basically there isn't anything anyone can do or say to change the fact there is an open botting program, and that this thread is obsolete.

I agree with you 100% about the botting and think its pretty shitty, but what hes trying to say is that it doesn't matter if we think its shitty or not. Jorb knows, and doesn't care.

He knows, but doesn't think playing stupid policing games with botters is the solution. He thinks fixing the mechanics that are so boring that they make people bot is a better solution.

although jorb did say he disapproves the use of bots.
And still doesnt excuse sabinati calling me and ignorant shit or telling me to get out of my own thread

not trying to start something but that's just rude.
i didn't think any forum allowed their mods to say stuff like that.

There are no in-game mods.

That said, fighting bots is a task that requires cost/benefit decisions. Jorb and Loftar have stated that they have no desire to become in-game police. This game is also in beta, and they have stated that they would rather spend development time on creating content. Now, you have to consider: does a particular anti-bot action or mechanic make the game less or more fun for the regular players? Bots can be used to get some fep events, gather curios, and also change curios at opportune times, but does having a bot do that really give a person or faction an overwhelming advantage? More game changing are the programs that allow players to auto-aggro or auto hearth when they see strangers.

Also, anyone who equates using Ender's client to cheating is hopeless. I am pretty sure Jorb uses Ender's. The whole reason the client code was opened up was to enable clients that were better than the vanilla one, and that would not require loftar to deal with it. Using a crappy client does not make you more pure than your fellow players, it's just a stupid handicap for people who haven't learned that there are better options out there.
