    Exclamation Botting

    Are y'all going to make a report button for botting? Yall need to, I have seen conversations on PL about people sharing hacking websites so they can create bots! Y'all need to make a button for replying this because there will probably be bots very very soon! I am not going to be one of them because I know it is a violation and that it is cheating. Please consider this!

    Thank you,

    ANd also people can create alternate accounts on STS forums and thank all their main accounts posts, what should y'all do about this? And lastly hundreds or thousands of people who have been banned from the game permanently have now created new accounts on the PC and Macs, so now we have almost all the cheaters and game abusing people back!

    You could have edited your post bud. For the who do the forum thing, they just want to get noticed by devs. That's all imo.

    Yes I know, but I know some crazy people who will do anything and everything to create a system to do this. So I guess it's better to create the button in advance.

    Well if nothing else you can just send an email to support with the botter's name and evidence that leads them to check the account, I believe there is a way they can tell if an account is botted or not.

    Aren't the regular booting methods available in PL/SL via Chrome?

    Also, just because it's on chrome doesn't mean things can't be automated. I'd actually be interested in chatting/pm'ing some devs about ways to catch possible botting.

    I can remember that a while back someone found out a botter. I think Ricci told me back then, so he can confirm this.
    He made a game in catacombs, killed 3 mobs then made a new cata game.
    He already had farmed 90k kills, and when you asked him something he didn't reply.
    This guy probably did something to his device, but it seems possible to let him use some sort of script to do this automaticly.

    The fact that he double posted is not the biggest problem in the world, not a real big reason to even mention it.

    And botting, not only takes the fun out of a game. Botting gone wild can literally destroy/kill a game. Mainly by controlling the market. Botting in other games is a HUGE problem. I like the idea in the op. I don't think it is needed (cuz, people can just do normal reports to sts). However, if botting becomes a largescale problem, then this op's idea is perfect.

    We are able to locate, pursue, and ban botters very aggressively, more than that I won't say. Rest assured it is something we are staying aware of. If you do come across someone you are pretty certain is botting then you can use the in-game report system just as you would for other exploits or inappropriate behavior.

    Anyone ever play Wolfenstein et? That game was awesome when people modded it, no grav, snowball launching RPGs, and the insta kill pistol maps, golden eye style. Those were awesome. I never played runescape, but I played dragon fable for awhile and there was a trainer that let you turn into a chicken and stuff. So sometimes it's fun, but when it's just used to "be the best" then it's just ends up being no fun. I mean, if you get to the max level and get all the best stuff in a matter of say a week, what is gonna make it fun after that ya know?
