RMT Bots in Novice Network! We need help!

[MihaelB]

Too many in Lamia, see people constantly kicking them out but it feels pointless

[AlphaFox]

As for the kicking, unless it was changed in the patch green leafs are only kicked for 30minutes before being put back in. I would put it on the side of a troll wanting to be funny, but then again on Coeurl I've basically closed out cus I got annoyed at not seeing it be used the way it was intended. If i wanted spam I'd have my tells on.

You know that they can be totally ignored, right? They never say anything in the chat, they never add up far enough to max out they chat. They might be a blight, but people make way too big a deal of this. Hell, the complainers are more annoying at this point.

No one likes RMT, but keep things in perspective.

It's a valid concern, seeing the NN filled with dozens of RMT doesn't really inspire confidence in New players.

100% this.

Most people wouldn't even take notice of bots, if not for the people who go on bot-kicking sprees, spamming the channel with

<so and so was kicked by Mentor
Reason: bot>

Now just imagine that spammed 20+ times in your chat. It got to such a point on Balmung, that actual novices were asking to be removed from the chat because they were tired of the spam.

And then someone booted the mentor that was doing it and it became quiet and everyone was happy.


*edit starts here*

and I also want to add, that kicking bots is a practice in futility.

They will be added after 30 minutes, automatically. Once a player has been added to the Novice Network as a new adventurer, the only way out is to remove your NA status.

The fact that people don't realise this (Actually had some people try to tell me that's 'not how it works') is the most baffling part.

There is another way they could be invited. If the RMT people have a mentor in there, when an RMT is booted, it re-adds them.

[Saseal]

I'm not in the mentor channels, but an FC mate of mine is. He said 12 bots were kicked just last night, on Coeurl. >_>

I'm Glad SE made a tool that makes it soooo EASY for Real players so see how little they are doing about the issue.

Oh what is this? I always saw people from Balmung denying the existance of RMT spam.

Each server has RMT. Don't go instigating things. Balmung does not get many /tells but they exist there all the same.
