Should the ToS be updated to allow botting?

[SilkaN]

And I wasn't aware that disagreeing with the OP on their stance regarding botting, disagreeing with botting in general, or considering it a lazy practice, was considered "trolling" or me being "incredibly naive."

Before you accuse me of not reading your posts, please do read mine. I didn't call younaive for disagreeing with OP, I called you naive because the whole concept of wanting to avoid activities some players might consider a hassle seemed completely foreign to you. You are trying to defend viewpoints I didn't even cricitize.

If they don't want to "waste" time on farming mats, then they probably shouldn't have picked up gathering. No one "has" to do anything in this game. One does not "have" to gather, one chooses to. And yeah, it's safe...until one of them ends up on the unlucky side of the banhammer. But, I guess that's up to them, if they are willing to risk their account. And I don't see how enjoyable a game can be if you aren't playing it, but again. Perhaps that's just me. Different folks, different strokes.

Actually, it's not just you, but also the majority of the playerbase (me included). But there are, just like in real life, people who want to avoid hard work and still get the same benefits / rewards as everyone else. I am not trying to justifiy their behavior, but it baffles me that you even have to ask

what kind of mindset do these people even have.

That is why I was calling you naive.
