botting

[Canadane]

in just one sitting in faerie i have encountered over 500 bots...... in just this hour alone....not the same bot different ones. i have kept a record of all names...... yet when reporting players... nothing seems to be done.... why....

Because bots aren't banned within an hour. Their accounts are dealt with in waves.

Weekly basis, the links above are all for April.
They total almost 8000 bans. And I consider that pretty small for their usual amount.

ya cept it takes longer than a week to get to 50 .... and they have over 200 doing so... so that tells me they are really lax on it...

It takes a day tops to get to 50.
You have to remember, these aren't humans controlling these characters. They don't watch cutscenes, they poshack to get around and advance quests, avoid taking damage while being able to deal it.
It's a nonstop script that'll do what it needs to do to get to 50+ or whatever they're programmed to do these days.
