Silkroad Online Forums

Hello silkroaders,
Well anyway i was doing the 'thrilling' black tiger quest behind the tiger mountain and every few minutes a PC would run by with names such as:

'fghfghfghfgh'
'hsjsfgjsa'
uisghsczafdg' etc... (basically keybashed names)

I notice these guys always follow the same route!! and i never notice them engaged in battle which i find odd. They also always run for a couple of seconds, stop, run again etc. I also see them in synchronised little groups sometimes which makes me laugh.

Now i PRESUME these are what u guys are always calling 'bots' but im just seeking an answer to a motive behind these little fellas.
If these are bots why why would ppl want to make it so obvious? and why on earth would they want to play with a cruddy username like 'adhadfha' later on in the game? and why dont they ever do anything except run about the map on the same little route??!!

V.sorry if this is a pointless post but i see these guys all the time and i seek the answers to the mystery of the keybashed names!!

Its gold bots grinding for gold.
They are on a seperate account.
They grind all day long, every day when they have grinded they trade over all their stuff to the main acc.

They dont care about the name, ive even seen goldbots with the name Bot123. Can it get more obvious than that?

well the only 2 ways i can there lame
1. they push up prices due to people buying there gold
2. they kill the mobs around you

the only advantge i see as that they dont pick up there alchemy items ^^
more elements for me ^^

i saw them wandering with an sos on their bare hand and run around at hyungno homeland with their self breath skill after battle and pick my gold everywhere that i dropped and saw them get some fkin! sos drops which i have to summonscrolls and take his sos away.
