Bots, lets talk about them.

As for Goo it's quite simple at least in her head I'm from same town as Burg and have been known on occasion to agree with him and Burg has been in the same town as Klaue back in world 2 when he decided to kill all russians to make the lag better thus I am evil and hate all russians or something. That and a shared history of ingame antagonism.

I just find it laughable when she somehow finds a way to bring that stuff up arguing with me too even though I started in W3 with Angkor and never even joined up with you guys until W5 and now am pretty much playing without any of you.

This thread is really funny

So on page four I suggest randomly banning obvious botters as a deterrent for botting

Botting is legal and approved by devs. Why people should be banned then?

[Avu]

Because it makes the fucking game pointless even more so than games in general. That's fucking why. And it's not approved by devs they don't like botting they just don't do anything about it which kinda makes you right so yeah I guess it is approved.

Nah, they literally told that players can bot if would like to.

Nope. It's just that we don't see that there is much we can do about it. It is certainly not "approved".

Currently everyone can bot as much as they want botting whatever they want without any consequences. So I and many others see botting as accepted.
"accepted"

So far i like the some of the points being made in this thread, and (most of you) kept the discussion civil.

However we seem to have come back to the argument of punishment for use of bots, id like to point out my example in the first post. Jorb is right in his feeling that nothing much can be done, the more you fight bots, the more advanced and harder to detect they become.

So, again.. id like to point the discussion back towards solutions that dont involve directly fighting bots or their creators. Solutions that make botting nearly obsolete such as Drinking while harvesting, something that simple can make the hassle way more tolerable.

The more suggestions we have, the more J&L have to choose from, and the less time they have to spend planning.

That's not what you've told me in IRC when i've asked bot-related questions in the begining of Hafen Launch

What did you ask him exactly? "Hey jorb is it cool if I just go ahead and automate all of the in-game activites so that I can leave my bots running all day?"

Yes, I can imagine him totally being ecstatic about that.

Nope, i've asked if they gonna do anything with bots, because bots killed last worlds of haven.
What's wrong with you? I understand it's hard too loose forum battles (LadyGoo pwned u lel) but shouldn't you be old enough to handle it?
