lol also the reason I have 400 accounts is because of the timer to harvest localized resources to prevent people from using alts to collect localized resources. I made them a few days after they implemented the timer on harvesting upon realizing it went from taking 5 minutes with roads to harvest my mountain to about 2 hours. You can make 5 alts and harvest 5 localized resources faster than you can harvest them without making alts
100% of the counter-measures to bots in this game can be brute forced with more bots, while being super obtrusive to normal play. Either that, or they rely on obfuscation - so it's balanced until somebody figures it out, then spends years abusing it before others do since there's 0 checks to make sure people aren't up to stupid shit. See: gerdgen, global pools, local pools, spiced industry, etc
I don't rly think Jorbtar cares about bots. I'm pretty sure these counter-measures are just to appease mouth breathers. They could've fixed pepper 5 years ago by changing one number and after all this time they still haven't. They added a wound and increased the amount of pepper ppl need overall instead lol
