For a game I'm paying monthly to play, the sheer amount of all the above is simply unacceptable. I can't walk in town without being completely flooded with gold selling advertisements, I receive tells roughly every three minutes from them as well, and teleporting bots have stolen three of my usual camping spots.
The fact it's been going on as long as it has leaves me worried, and reporting offenders has done absolutely nothing.

These two post indicate the work they are doing to eliminate the RMT threat. -
09-18-2013, 03:27 AMBlazeChronicI agree with the other two statements, however I'm confused by this... Do you mean spots where you farm certain mobs for drops? I don't see how a bot could teleport between spawns and claim faster than a human. That would be impossible to script.Quote:
