I hope theres some actual sun/capped bots ._., it will be gay if its just gold bots, wouldn't matter if it proved botting is still ilegal if they still don't enforce it and ban real ones.

I'd be happy already if only the goldbots were banned. They are the problem of the server traffic.

Sanctified · Post by **Sanctified** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 1:42 pm

Yah I really hope alot of the gold bots are banned. That would solve alot of problems.

Binning · Post by **Binning** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 1:58 pm

There's just one thing I don't really understand... why are they warning us before they're going to introduce a huge ban on bots? Every single botter knows its illegal to use one, but they're only doing it because Joymax hasn't done anything about it. If they really were going to do a HUGE ban on bots I think they would do it without telling anyone, that way they would catch alot more bots in action. This whole thing just looks like a scare tactic.

Silkroad Online has prepared a massive bot punishment in order to satisfy the request of our users.
Please understand that this preparation has took a long time because we have increased the accuracy of blocking massive number of bots without harming good intentioned players.

We will proceed the punishment as soon as the preparation is complete.
In order to promote clean gaming environment, we ask our users not to use bots, as using bots will block the user's account permanently.

We will announce further information regarding the date of punishment when it's ready.

Thank you

I'm sure that they just copy and paste this text....

I bet it's just another bullshit goldbot ban, wich won't help us at all... Maybe the server traffic will be easier for day or two, but thats it.

Malon · Post by **Malon** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:17 pm

Oh great...
Why they dont ban all botters first and then announce that newsment?
Now every player bot can make a break till the "massive-bot-ban" is over.
Its cool that a lot of gold bots will be banned, but they come back... and that really fast.

Anyway... its better than nothing. :love:

The last player bot banned was June 2006 (I'm pretty sure, I think nightbloom said something about it). But anyway, we will see, still lol :roll:

ArchYourFace · Post by **ArchYourFace** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:38 pm

Last time there was a major ban, we got a major update. Maybe were gonna get a couple of nice gifts from JM. Maybe june son IS improving customer relations and pred was just mad at the company that fired him, or MAYBE this is all just total bs and were gonna get the 6 bots from each server like the most recent bot ban that was an absolute joke. Well see.

"Silkroad Online has prepared a massive bot punishment in order to satisfy the request of our users."

The lists are already made. Won't matter now if the gold bots are off or if you stop boting. Joymax already has the names there going to ban.

It might be implemented on Tuesdays inspection.

Thank you Joymax for warning every one so they can secure their gold/items on safe accounts, in case they get banned :oops:

if its just another alternative client banlist then i am afraid a lot even non botters will get banned lets hope they actually did learn from last list and checked waypoints/repeated paths and grinding times, things that clearly indicates bots instead of all poor no DC client users

Da_Realest · Post by **Da_Realest** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:52 pm

But I thought botting wasn't against the ToS anymore? They removed it. :roll:

I've always said bot programs are still considered "illegal."

Crumpets · Post by **Crumpets** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 3:03 pm

JM : Uhh Mr. Plvl.com tell me the names of your gold bots that give the least gold per day ratio.

PLVL.com : Huh why what's up ?

JM : Ugh, WoW, Cabal, Aion are all getting new changes so we need to satisfy our sheep.

PLVL.com : But we had a deal ... the last ban we lost a few bil gold on our main gold holder accounts

JM : Yeah we are sorry, I guess we'll have to make a new update so that all the gold buyers stock up on gold to buy the new items.

PLVL.com : Damn right son.

Blablablalbla /bored

They've already made the list, they are just waiting to release it, like the other lists. If they ban botters + altered clients again, alot more people will be banned then just botters. Seems like so many people I know use the no-d/c client ...

But still, bot ban :wink:

I'll second that! Yes folks, botting is illegal in iSRO. If it were legal, Joymax wouldn't be able to ban for it.

This is good news indeed. Maybe it will just end up being a long list of gold bots, but that would be a good thing too. I look forward to the day when I see a nice list of well-known player bots banned, even silk buyers. :twisted:

Why would they warn people not to bot, and then go ahead and ban them anyway?

butcha · Post by **butcha** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 4:03 pm

there are not many chances... either if they already got the HUGE bot ban list or they just look a bit outside of jangan to ban some goldbots, like 2-6

JacksColon · Post by **JacksColon** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 4:14 pm

it's going to be mostly goldbots because those are easiest to spot with names like 20320824 and aosdjfao

What they should do is make a name filter where you can't have nonsensical names or only numeric names. Then, goldbots would have to make more REALISTIC names, which means they would have to go through the trouble to do so, which means they would probably say "ahh **** it!" and not even bother. And the ones that do would still be running around myangyangs like crazy and easily spotted.

dumbest idea ever, then they wouldnt be able to spot the bots as easily, and the legit public wont have any names to use for thei chars, ebacuse some idiots from a bot company already took it
