    most of them are botting after the bot is out of mats they just sit there in there synth kneel.
    And once again, that means jack shit. I will go afk in the middle of crafting and leave myself in kneel mode while I run to the store, take a walk, hell even when I head for work, I just go afk in whatever position im in. Sometimes im afk at a tree, at a mine node, at a fish node, out in the middle of the field or yes, even while kneeling in craft mode.

    The truth of the matter is in the end, you cannot tell just by looking at a character. That is not a 100% accurate way of doing this. Hell even adding in programs to your client that monitor for botting problems his hardly foolproof. Those things constantly toss legitimate players off servers all the time.

    If I need to go to the bathroom, I just get up from my chair and run. I will never sit around waiting for it to leak or stand around until I wet myself. No matter if I'm standing idle at the gathering spot, or kneeling idle in town, I go AFK when I need to. I'm not gonna linger for 10 more seconds (and risk peeing myself) just to get back to passive mode, only to come back a minute later and have to start getting into active mode again to do the same thing I was doing before abrupt AFK.

    +1 for the several references to wetting yourself. I chuckled.
