Bots in international dists running wild.
Arwen Shiningstar
It may just be me but if you want to see lots of bots go to the international dists (especially elonas) . They are way easy to spot they all have the same hair style, random names and spawn in the same places. International dist is a hot bed for bots/pd players. I mean I don't know for a fact that they are bots but they defenitly display bot like behavior. It just disgusts me constantly seeing them in there. Has anyone here seen tons of bots/pd players in the international dist?

take a few picture and send to ANet

Elona international district is notorious for bots. Last time I looked must have been twenty or thirty. ANet has to be aware of this. Nevermind the pics.

Bots are not going anywhere.

Bots are rampant
Where to find them: (international districts)
Elonas
Droks
Altruum Ruins
Granite Citadel: 2 types of bots, some going for the pop-ups just outside, and other lvl 2/3 groups usually join up with a w/mo to get SoJ. (guessing)
My only guess, and this has been posted before, is that A-Net is watching them to find the botting networks/people responsible. This is the only thing that makes sense as to why they are allowed to continue.
Only problem is that I think alot of them aren't part of a network, just a player who has downloaded a bot from some cheat site to make gold while they are doing other things.

lol, just let them bot...they won't get any benefit from it. Anti-farm code activates in Elona faster than anywhere else. And trust me, they only get 1 drop per run.

Bring in the Bots-eliminator Squad!

have you just doscovered it? its been goin on forever and theres is a gazillion threads about bots
lennymon
Heh, funny thing is... if you think about it they ARE good for the 'guild wars economy'. Here's what I mean, if anet bans them right away every time they spot them, yes it might eliminate this bot infestation... but if not...
ok hear me out, the bots and gold farmers are good for the game in the big picture. they buy games, giving more money to anet to add more stuff for us. Anet realizes on a bottom line level that if you leave them alone for awhile, THEN ban them, they'll buy another copy and keep at it. Anet probably even has an algorithm (similar to the anti-farm 007 sooper secret one) for determining the best time to delete accts for maximum profit. YAY! more goodies compliments of bots plz!

It just seems to be more rampant in the international dists. Its laughable. BTW that pic of the warrior and all the monks was great. Why does evveryone have to flame everyone on here? I am bringing up a valid observation and asking if anyone else has noticed this. I was only trying to draw attention to the bot infestation. Yes I have seen the bot threads so what? If you dont have anything to constructive to add to a thread why do you bother to post?

Does bot really bother you guys? If not, this thread is totally meaningless.
xiaotsu
They're farming places that won't get them much money, they can't screw up our economy, ANet will handle them in due time, if not, oh well, we aren't losing out on anything
Arwen you have a point...a lot of people on GWG just flame people instead of answering their damn questions...

Wow I didnt mean to piss people off LOL You people take these boards so seriously. I was making a simple obeservation. I was just trying to make a point. Apperently the purpose of these forums is give a venue for one person to make another person feel stupid. As long as bots run wild they should be pointed out is all.
Everyone calm down and have a margarita geez!

Bot framing areas usually lead to Nerfs or changes-marrow scabs.
Instead of banning the bot user, A-net takes the EASY way out and I loose out on fun.
Eviance
Arwen I can probably guess this thread will be closed... Heck I posted about them being in Beetletun cause it seemed odd for them to be there and 3posts later my thread was closed.. -_-
I was told there were plenty of threads on bots and to use the search function (which was down at the time o_O). Anyways its nothing new reguardless especially in Elona.

I seen a bunch in Camp Rancor. What could they possible be farming there? It seemed like an odd place to see so many bots.

Rather than enchant-stripping, get a necro with rend enchants while i bring a monk to fix you right back ^^

So far most bots are in prophocies. I don't think bots will be going to the next chapter with the risk of being banned.
As more chapters are released the less you will see.

That's because the groups in Factions are more varied, I can only think of the vermin and low level wardens (without mesmers) could possibly be botted there.
On second thought vermin can probably not be botted either since they apply to many conditions for a bot to figure out.

factions has all the locked gates..... so they would need to do the missions to get to the farming places. Not something I see bot-ers doing.....
and I tend to agree with lennymon about anet and boters and their relationship.....if the only sell copies to gamers then there maybe a lag where there are not many (or maybe even NO) sales, but if they have boters, then they keep selling copies to the banned boters-----revenue keeps pouring in....
and yes I have to say it.....yes it does BOTher me....sorry,

You can tell the bots from the chinese sweat shop farmers easily, just take a warrior and do the wammo dance behind them, if they move away disgusted its usually not a bot, but the bots will never be removed, its what keeps the high end trade forums alive....
