Eureka: Mods delete the post showing bot owner admitting to botting

[Kleeya]

waiting for things to escalate and people start sending tells, and random invites to the bots, hits the wrong person and gets banned for harassment :V

That's exactly what i did see not so long ago on reddit. In the middle of the veryyyyyyyyy long post complaining of having being unjustly banned, the only relevant lines were the method he used to "detect" bots : sending them private messages, group invites and trade requests. If i am in the middle of a boss fate fight, busy doing my rotation, i don't think i would be pleased that some self-proclamed hero of justice start sending me "hey, are you here ?" and "if you don't answer in five seconds i am reporting you for boting !" mps, before trying to trade me repeatedly.

One person botting on ten accounts brings in more profit than any one of us.

But what if this guy makes dozens of other players stop the game because they can't stand to see bots anymore ? Wouldn't that bring more money to ban all the boter accounts ?

Too many whiteknights and whales around for any sort of bot or boycot to have an effect on SE's treatment of the playerbase
