Is anyone annoyed by the HUGE number of people using bots on this game?

[bsphil]

botters will still bot

legit players dont become botters because they dont like something, legit players just dont do it at all

cheaters bot, regardless of how involved, easy, hard or whatever the system is

Don't be silly. It's not like there's a hard border between those who will always bot and those who never will. There is a full spectrum of gray between each endpoint, and the more boring and tedious the task is, the more people are encouraged to give in and bot to avoid all that boring busywork.

You know, saying you're better than a common botter isn't exactly something to be proud of. Are you implying you're an avarage/ standard botter, or professional botter?

Better than the botters in this thread!
Higher standards. More respect for peers. Better ethics.

I'm a better person than someone who cheats in online games. People who cheat are pathetic wastes of server data.

Sorry!

People need to understand


Botting is NOT a byproduct of the state of a game

botting is because people are cheaters and would do it regardless of what game it is

This is absolutely 100% wrong and I cannot stress that enough.

But back to more important matters...

Peregrine's bot is currently coming up with another stupid response now.

Edit: There it goes! That was fast. So automated and efficient.

I agree, some people will cheat in any game.

When we ban your ass, you won't bot any more either, right? I mean your desire, at that point, becomes "Not our problem."
Hey I'll take the action that doesn't depend on YOUR subjective assessment of the quality of the activity any day.

So...ban em. It's not the game's fault. They're scum players.

I dont care who you or SE bans, the game isn't fun enough to botters to miss playing once banned.

Remember, they are botting because the game is boring.

Anyone who steps across that line needs a suspension. The people who have been botting since November need bans.
Your sad arguments have been tried and tried by thugs all over the world. Doesn't work. You did the crime. You are to blame. Don't blame society. You did it.

[Kurokikaze]

ITT: People unable to look at the both sides of the argument objectively before breathing out of the mouth.

Another bot response has gone off!

No, they are botting because they lack integrity and ethics. It's not the game. it's them.

[Kurokikaze]

It's you who is botting.

Can you tell me where you got yours?

[TheVedis]

in regards to what Eva posted before he deleted his own post

players not knowing their jobs doesnt make them bots
it could also be one of MANy other things

Take quarter man on Besaid

he didnt know how to play cuz he bought his account(he was in my shell when it happened til we booted him for it)
he was clueless
