    This doesn't really tie into the OP, but I just recently learned that people who I used to think were bots were actually on fieldcraft leve quests, as they don't give an animation.

    Haha I always thought it was odd whenever I saw myself and someone on the same fieldcraft leve at a node and they'd stand still until they put their tool away.

    EDIT: That sounds dirtier than I intended.

    there are other signs that they are botting their fieldcrafting though
    such as people who "teleport" 20 feet away from a node once they start on it and mine/log it from the edge of your screen way far away

    or the ones who run up to nodes that were there an hour ago but you exausted, and sit there for 5 minutes then move on...
    stuff like that

    no, afk =/=

    and as far as moving after starting the node, it was actualy a bot causing it

    they werent just moving, their character was almost literaly teleport/glitching when they started the node
    every node
    no matter where it was


    it wasnt just me seeing it, i had a witness to it, and there was one other person who was doing the same thing out there a bit later(and both of us saw it again)

    it was basicaly their program/bot glitching on them somehow



    you start to notice things when you are in the field enough, you know how people really are, and normal players dont run up to a node that exausted 5 minutes, and sit there, and then run off to another node that is exausted, and sit there, and cycle through "exausted nodes" over and over cuz they havent come back to reset their program yet for the new ones that are up
