Not Everyone is a Bot

[CielWulfe]

For crying out load, just because you see someone out farming mobs doesn't mean they're a frigging bot. I had ONE spot to myself in Drybone where three goats pop at pretty much the same time, and I stayed there to avoid interfering with anyone else's farming.

Was I teleporting from mob to mob? No.

Was I wearing gear which was inappropriate or poor for my level? No.

Did I display any of the usual bot habits? No. Why? Not a bot.

Did I respond when I was accused of botting? Yes. Because I was present and in control of my character.

Christ on a cracker, seriously, people. We've become so obsessed with the rampant botting and RMT problem that we're willing to randomly point at anyone and automatically assume they're a bot? Grow the hell up. There are tons of other goats around Drybone without you running by and trying to take the three I had on the one tiny patch I had occupied. You saw me there, then move on, don't deliberately hang around to see how fast you're going to kill steal.

If my hunting goats for skins for the sake of crafting is a problem for you, too damn bad. You can go hunt karakuls on Coerthas. Oh wait... there's only 3-4 of those in a tiny spot being botted constantly when other legitimate players are trying to farm them.

You could also go farm hippogryphs in Mor Dhona. Oh wait, those are also heavily farmed by other legitimate players, but you'd probably assume those are bots, too.

So when did every ordinary player suddenly become a bot just because they're farming? Get a clue.
