Solution to stop bots

[shubla]

I have epic idea how to block bots totally, so ppl dont have 100 pearls on their botted cupboards inside their botted house on botted bw's.
Every 5 minute you need verify you are not bot by filling simple Capthchathingy. If you dont verify it on 1 minute your char will be KO'd. After 3 fails on row it will be killed.
Something like this

I have epic idea ...

If you dont move you dont need to verify, so you can afk.

Loftar stated that he even dislikes using Captchas for forum ... and if you really think Captchas would solve botting you'd prolly be mucho astonished about Captcha Bots

Imagine running from enemy and getint this note every 5 min Or swimming a lake with flask drink menu open and capcha menu covers it over

[Bramson]

Or going to the bathroom and having to pinch one off to make it back in time...

WOW what a shitty idea....

[ydex]

haha what an truly awfull idea.

i don't think lacking knowledge of how to stop bots is a problem tho. more finding the time to actually create a system?
pesonally i'd recomend resname scrambler both on server and client side, on say a monthly update basis. one file that
is places in ur clients res or just in root directory and one with hte corresponding keys in servers res/root folder.

this would mean that people would have to use default client as well as it would make it harder to bot.
I however like both modded cleints and bots, so i woudn't recomend this

No this has way to many problems and further abuses it would add to the game. I don't like the suggestion.
