reasons to be cheerful part 1

my point was why should one version of you gaining stats / items whilst not at the computer yourself (as the owner of the character) not be banned also? Bots are slower than humans as i understand so the multi/pilot lifestyle will reap rewards faster than a mechanical program will ..
cant allow one without the other if youre arguing from a fairness POV

Tbh ..there's 2 options. Play the game.. or dont play the game and waste all the time you've put in.
It's that simple really.
Im sure the GM's will have a few tricks up their sleeve and a hardened attitude to any '' cheating'' in future.

so if you have a spare sister or brother that plays your char during the day you should get a ban?

"PROTEUS"No botters are doing anything interesting because botting sucks. We will never catch the multis. I just like being able to work while I play and not go braindead. I'm always at my pc.

The only reason i'm public about it is Isylver has said its fine as long as you are at your PC and never AFK. If that has changed i'll have to rethink how I play but I know many people don't have the stamina to try and catch multis these days especially when people like me only log onto their own chars and don't have multi crews.

Either way, Silence you're moaning about something that really doesn't affect you, i've been level 48 for ages now. What are you worried about? You should be more worried about Harry Tom or Kim Jong Il logging onto chars 24/7 to get their e-peen fix, not a casual who only plays to level up and fight new mobs.


I don't understand why it's acceptable to bot as long as you are not AFK. I can't level as fast as a bot would, even if soma had 100% of my attention.


Because so many people are already botting, so many people already multi and some people are spending money on pilots. Having some assistance to help clicking while you're at your PC makes Soma less boring and keeps people playing.

Bots suck man, you still gotta be at your PC to while botting and they are no where near as good as a real player at leveling. There really isn't much difference in speed of leveling. The only difference is if someone is cheeky and goes AFK overnight, at which point they need to be banned.


"Other people bend the rules, so why can't I" If it's such a good way to keep people playing it should be available to everyone, an in game function. It shouldn't be something that you benefit from because you're friendly with the right players. Even if i can level faster than a bot it's still wrong, it's like you don't want to play the game or you don't want to put the effort into leveling.

Single IP is dumb, but it should be obvious when an IP which has been on one account the entire time suddenly migrates to another and with that you can stop pass around characters, you can stop new multis and the bitterness that comes from characters who can't be multied will self regulate the rest.

ofc not. That was my point. That cant be policed and will happen in every game in the world. But afk botting could do with a slap on the ass bigger than a 3 day ban

but the point is, why should one form of afk leveling be allowed but others not..?
If you, the owner of the account, are not playing then it should be a ban?
You cannot claim using a program to do it for you is any different to using another human.

Log them and crossreference them automatically, it can't be that hard...

None of these IP's would be from previous existing accounts so wouldn't flag.

I'll overthrow it for you.

People who know each other close outside the game would use the same IP's when there in the same house.

But you didn't mention that to begin with (and don't want to mention it now), which means you outted yourself as a Multi who would be hindered by this :)
