I am undecided. I am going to play the WOW trial soon...maybe try Carpe Diem if I can. Depending on how good these games are compared to their cost per month, I might be leaving. Unless SRO canges anytime soon, which I doubt. Some might say who cares if this no name noob leaves, but in a month of playing I've already bought 100 silk...want to buy more for more quivers and potions, but I refuse to pay equivelent of $10 a month(WOW price) for admin that doesn't care all that much about it's players. I could play without silk, but then I am at a disadvantage to most of the other players.

Sut, I appreciate ur comments. But please do me one favor forward my post and let it be known that this is a growing problem and that "IF" JM would invest the time they would find it to be so. Also 10-20 trained GM`s would cost less then 1 fully degreed and trained programmer. 13 servers 13 (per 8 hour shift) x 3 (8 hour shifts)= 39 GM`s that would cost alot less in the long run then a team of programmers trying to crack and stay one step ahead of the latest bot. The above is the most extreme case, even if they just had 13 per 24 hr day that roamed from server to server checking out the known bot areas it would only take a week of banning acct`s before there would be a definete noticable drop in the # of bots. And again i specify banning accts NOT chars, the reason being u ban the char so what each nite they unload into a non botted char for storage so what if the bot char gets banned they still have in there legal char all the gold and items there bot found today.
Edit: Added after i read this just wanted to add this lil insight: Any botter after getting his "ACCT" banned 3-4 times and loosing everything gold. items etc etc etc , and having to start from scratch would more then likely throw there hands up in the air and give up trying. U have to understand the mentality of the people using bots, they want it now and they want IT ALL now, u delay that and they grow frustrated and give up. Think i m wrong look at each of your servers u play on, the first capped and fully farmed players the ones everyone knows botted there way there, where are they >> gone its only the hardcare gamers that devolop relationships with guilds and or unions that stay here after being capped and fully farmed. Now this may not be 100% true but u all know what i`m referring to.
Also i would like to comment on the language, 90% or more international companies use the english language as the "PER SAY" international language. Most if not all people in this world can understand simple phase`s such as " Hello are u here" or "Hello Nice day" the questions do not have to be hard or complex, as a matter of fact the simplier the question the better. It is not a matter of trying to see how smart the char is, it is a matter of recieving a "reply", and that reply will then be used to decide if that char needs more indepth investagation or not.
Ohh PS: yes i know i m long winded but i learned early in life. that to fully get your point across to someone u must explain it fully and indepth, or the meaning is lost.
