You can code a bitcoin miner into your client but you cant code yourself a glimmer bot smh.
Oh wait i forgot you only know how to steal code.
Ah yes, my man for once complains about the right thing and you whine about him not making a glimmer bot. Wtf?

This mostly fixes but what i don't like is how it encourages me to kill people if i find them in my local thingwall zones, because i know that they will only make foraging harder simply by being out and foraging.

What we really need is a bot reporting team and a dedicated team of players whom are willing to go around killing bots and smashing palisades that have bots....

here's an idea make them like ant hills make it guarded by a mob when they try to raid it those mobs will attack that person still have two options kill the mobs or run off and have one of their friends do it it will require more mental capacity to do it

Ye, these pools are still a thing they just got more complicated and especially affect certain things like glimmermoss less. If you figure out how to abuse them correctly they will nearly not affect your bots at all, but they will also be far less likely to affect regular players except for very localized foragables like Edels or if they happen to live nearby botlords.

Still an objectively bad mechanic that makes things worse without providing anything good, just not intrusive enough for people to screech about it anymore.
