The STF does nothing and I'm going to post every report I file as proof.

This particular bot, is just one bot. Monopolizing Abyss Sahagin. it's always "M". The owner controls "S" (the antican bot) and "K" (the Rancor bot) and who knows how many other bots.

The actions are obviously automation. They stand there for 15 minutes while the surrounding sahagins attack him. The Abyss Sahagin spawns, the bot spins around, provokes, then engages, then stands there still being attacked by the other sahagins. if their HP ever drops enough, it will engage and use sanguin blade to fill HP.

The point is, repeatedly reporting the same bot proves the inaction, whereas if I picked a different bot every day (there are THOUSANDS) you could easily ignore one report. You can't ignore 300 reports for the same bot. (well they can, and do, but it's more blatant that way) Showing the same bot being reported every single day tells a different story than showing how many bots there are. I COULD do both. I could report the same bot AND a new bot every day. But I don't want to. I could file a thousand reports every day, there are enough bots that I could file a report every 5 minutes of every day and still not get them all.

I would record it. I would record mpking the bot, to prove unequivocally that it's not a human controlling it, but they would just ban ME for it.

Don't worry, the GMs in game have likely taken the same attitude as the mods have to you here, and just ignore doing anything. So you wouldn't be banned, but then again the bots wouldn't be either.

Streaming and recording are specifically allowed under the terms. Just don't record yourself using obvious external tools.

Same thing goes and went for FFXIV as well- there was a recent debacle of high end raiders getting suspended for third party tool use (damage meters) while streaming. But if you don't advertise to the world that you're breaking the rules, well, you won't get in trouble now will you?

Intentional MPKing is never allowed.

That's not what I"m proposing they do.

Oh please, SE does little to nothing and so do the mods here ignore anyone that actually puts up enough resistance. So allowed or not falls into a grey area. SE can easily tell who is using GearSwap in Windower for example.

I'm really not sure I believe this. Which is why I'd want to see it for myself.

What if the bots are controlled by SE in order to ensure constant currency inflation? #darksteelfoilhat
