LOL, apparently they haven't banned enough BOTTERS!!!
Mr D J
Well note that there is not that many left by merchant in the same spot now... Before all Mo/W20 couldn't fit on my screen with 1280x1024 resolution

I have noticed one thing : Now those Mo/W still have chinese style name, act like bots ( surely) but now they have guild to avoid being detected.
Bot guild ftw.
Bot guild ftw.

On a side note does anyone know the build these bots are using? I would like to farm Elonas Once in a while when im bored but with a human controlling the character lol -_-

You - "Hey Monk XXX are you a healer or bonder?"
Bot - "You go now ok"

[love] is one of the bot guilds I'm sure of. Its the only guild where I only see 55 monks or necros. Nothing else.

They need a huge ban hammer and whack all of them with it

I was watching the bots in Euro English Dist 1 at Elona, laughing at them all running into the wall. Using a guild to cover and avoid being detected? It's really obvious they're scripted when they all run along the same route, walk along the same part of the wall and then all queue up at the merchant in exactly the same place. 
In saying that, they must've succeeded to some degree, judging by the amount of wammo's screaming "WTF R U DOING N00B MONKS!!!11! ACCEPT!!!"

yeah that sounds about right, i recon they should mass ban the guild.

They banned a bunch of bot-ers, however; since a lot of them are part of a business, banning a few of them is just cutting into their profits (so they will need to buy a few more copies of the game, no big thing---group discount or bulk discount, gets them a cheap copy and they are in business AGAIN)...
Anet needs to do more than just ban these people, they need to find out WHO is making them and not allow them (the company or anything related to them) to buy more copies.....of course my idea has some big holes---no idea HOW they would do this....(or if they really really care since banning them and making them buy new copies does create more profit for anet....)

Wasn't there also a guild called [love] (Fun Loving Kriminals) that was rank 69 or 70 a month or so ago? But yeah, there is definetely a bot guild by the name of [love].
Skuld
Yeh im unsure with FLK still exist, I was hesitant to label them as bots. [ECTO] was a big bot guild, that still around?
sh4ft3d
[ECTO] is still around. Not many bots still functioning, except for a few such as Jaking Wen. I blocked it over 5 months ago and I still remember it. The first bot I ever encountered
bringer di morte
I'd like to know their build also..If it's that profitable..

It's not very profitable, that's why they need so many.. :P

I tried out a solo monk build at Elonas (yes, it was Mo/W) to see if it worked, and I really started to wonder why so many people farm there. Nothing drops but minotaur horns and salvageable armors.

its almost worse than before the nerf of Twin serpent lake.

This works out real well for ANet. Ban the account for breaking the rules, they buy a new account and create a new bot, ANet bans the new account, rinse, repeat. ANet makes quite a nice profit from this.
