Bye bye turbo craft bots!

[Treach]

Even if they set the bar low like every 10 synths I think this is an acceptable measure to help combat botting. The inconvience that genuine, honest crafters have deal with is minimal at best.

I have a slight feeling most of the opposition is/will come from people who are guilty of turbo spam or botting themselves.

At least SE isn't auto logging players out once they reach a certain threshold or force players to use one of those cyrpto key thingies.

Even if this measure halts 1 bot, it's well worth the effort. I'm sick of seeing the same players day in day out hour after hour sitting there crafting/fishing doing nothing but cheating.

No it's not, having actual GM's "investigate" would be better. Botter's won't give a fuck at this change, they are doing something else if they are botting, what would they care if it took 15 seconds out of their time they are NOT spending pressing enter?

Again botters won't care, people using turbo will just have to check in every now and then so they can go back. It hurts the legit people more, it's a stupid change.

ENTER THE CAPTCHA AFTER EVERY SYNTH LOL.

It won't lol.

what if this aids in the investigation though...


just think for a second, someone hits enter 1000 times while in a synth position, nothing suspicious there

now take ytour botter, who hits enter 500 times while synthing, then stands an hits it 500 times while standing there

can we say proof?

all depends on how they log key strokes and such of course, the ones that actualy put entries into the game
