Yes it's true, but these arn't ingame names, it are accounts.

Yep as stated above. Only bad thing is it's still not as aggressive as they should be but it's a start as long as they continue with it.

I really dislike this way of noting the banned accounts.
Older ID's are maybe not as safe as people people make them now because of hacks etc, so older ID's could easily be guessed when only the last 3 signs are blocked out.

Its still not enough bot bans.... The weekly once were on like 5k and now they only ban like 3-5k per week it seems...
Maybe a bit more but it should be 5k bot bans per day!

Looks like they banned a bit just now, cleared up servers just a tad bit.

I wouldn't care even if they were revealing the entire account names, because I'm quite confident I won't see my account name in that list.
I really hope this new "Clean Campaign" to be true and to have some permanent results in a short time. Though I'm still quite skeptic about it.

Well, everybody should be skeptic about it, after the years of disappointment and slacking customer support. Although it seems they are making a change now, I am, aswell, very skeptic about it.

If that list does have some actual player bots then its too bad they leave out the last 3 characters, I would hope lots of bot accounts get stolen thanks to joymax, that would be pretty damn funny.

I think they could get sued for that for publishing confidential information about an account or something..

+1, they banned 271 accounts yesterday.
Assuming there is 1 char per account.
Theres what, 38 servers?
271/38 = 7
Thats 7 chars per server per day.
or 49 chars per server per week.
Wont change anything at this rate IMO.

7 high lvl player bots a day would be nice though.

If they want a change they should ban at least 500 people per server..

Publishing account name is not publishing confidential information.
Like ANY online game, YOU DO NOT OWN YOUR ACCOUNT. YOUR ACCOUNT IS THE PROPERTY OF THE COMPANY, NOT YOU. If you break their rules and they decide to delete it, they can. That's why they have a massive agreement that you have to agree to, in order to play.
If you bot, and Joymax decides to publish full account name, why would I care? Let them.
I don't think Joymax needs to do a massive ban daily. But if they at least ban player bots in each of those bot bans, that should encourage players it's not worth the risk to lose a level 90 or level 70 or whatever character. Plus having your account information partially published not worth it either.
Joymax doesn't want to lose all their silk buying botting customers. They just want to encourage their botting silk buying customers to stop botting and play according to their rules. If the player continues to risk losing their account, it's their problem.
