Botted Stats

[loftar]

Your tools are broken or you didn't configure them to look for the right things because it goes beyond looking at their diet and you should reveal all that information related stats/quality/whatever if you're so confident none of it points towards any significant amount of botting.

After all, I have your authority on it.

And how many of these broken foods are cheese? Every serious cheese factory is fed with botted fodder.

And most likely run by one.

I mean, at the very least the data should show a handful of outliers. I doubt it's even possible to put together something that lists 100% of people who are botting, but I guarantee if you chart player stats and mucked with the data a bit you'd find some folks who are DEFINITELY botting.

I never understood why jlo never ban botters. It isn't particularly difficult to spot a botter considering the nature of this game.

Have they ever made clear why they don't do that? I don't recall reading anything about (not) banning botters.

Wurm Online does it and it's pretty much macro free tbh.

Banning 90% of your playerbase probably isn't a smart move.

Banning 90% of your playerbase probably isn't a smart move.

In case it leads to 90% of new users no longer rage-quitting for being griefed by bored players with low moral standards: it is.

Are you dumb or something?
I doubt that people would keep botting if it was bannable offense. Some maybe, but not 90%

People would then start quitting, since the key issues of the urge to bot lies inside of the mechanics. And yeah, you guys do not really have all the up-to-date information on botting (or act like that, to trigger the mass hysteria), yet act like you have the actual clue (loftar has shown that you don't).
Regardless, they can always peak inside of the most criticized village of mine or read the report I've sent in regards internal botting (PM, obviously) to make their own judgement.

P.S. Lol'd at typical Kaios "You (the dev) and your information are wrong (access to the server), because it doesn't fit my fantasy world, where I can excuse myself being useless bc of some botters".

To a part, yes. The rest is in it being consequence free.

Then why not enlighten us?

Do you really want another shitstorm to start? As a mod?
On the other hand, the only people which opinion is relevant are the devs + the brainhub of our people that help me to polish out the ideas.
