I'm seeing bots I reported days ago!! Yes I do write their names down on paper.

As a paying customer I'm disgusted!!

Stop paying attention to bots and level up. They aren't prevalent in higher levels. Secondly, if that's the main focus of your playing time, you should stick to single player games then. They will get it handled eventually. Will there be enough community that isn't discouraged by the plethora of other things that are far more irritating, such as combat lag and endless loading screens? Time will tell.

Excuse me!! part of this game is mining ore, I'm sick to death of running up to nodes and they vanish before my eyes.

Don't tell me what to play!!

Your response shows the level of maturity you have and with that, I'm out. I gave you options on how to deal with the situation without being a child. You chose to do the latter.

Most of the games I've played prefer to ban bots in waves rather than as soon as they are found.

The reasoning behind this is so they can monitor the bots over a period of time to better learn their patterns of behavior and interaction with the game so they can better write scripts that can detect other bots that haven't been reported yet with less real players being being mistakenly banned.

Given the number of legitimate accounts that have been banned incorrectly during their previous attempts to deal with bots, I think it's safe to assume they have adopted this method as well.

Bots are a lot like hackers though in the sense that you can never really get far enough ahead of them in the industry to defeat them completely. Sometimes, you just have to grin and bear it and trust the game developers to take care of the problem.

Ranting about it on the forums just pressures them into making more hasty decisions that are more likely to inconvenience real players than the bots.

Honestly this still hasnt happened to me, and I'm an all around crafter, but I have yet to see any node disappear from a hiding bot like that, i aw a teleporter and speed hacker (that one surprised me when i saw him) only ONCE. i guess i just have my mind on what I'm doing, and am also enjoying it while doing it

kewl

Please shut it down.

Yes you're right, I just get a bit mad.

I love the game but feel like I'm paying a monthly sub just to report bots. I know I don't have to, just feel I'm doing my bit for the game.
