Killing PowerBotters

I'm sure some or a lot of you all ready have done this. Someone all ready posted about killing a power-leveling botter's low levels.

Well, I've been doing this lately, since it feels so great to do it. I call it bowling, since the low levels are like pins and the aggressive monster is the bowling ball.

Today, I hit the lotto and killed around (I think) six or seven low levels. As always, I only kill the player(s) if the power-leveler is a botter. Well, it was going good until someone murdered me unexpectedly for revenge from the dead low levels I killed. The murderer was around the same level as me, but I just so happened to have low health when they hit me. So I died in one hit. Fortunately, I was in a party and one of the Rogues with extreme on one shot him. :D (Love you Rogues)

Now he threatens me a week of PK. Too bad he get the worse of it since they get murder and I only lose .20% of exp from it all.

I guess doing great justice has a price. Just wanted to share this to you all, because you're all so lovely.

Nah. It's more of an enjoyment of attacking botters indirectly. In my case.

I dont mind legit powerlvling, where there is an actual player putting the effort as the powerleveller, but when its Botting & Powerlevelling, it just doesnt get any lazier, so I try to do everything to make their life harder.

botting plvlers can reach 1-40 in under a day(I think even non-botters, if they play like..alot), you killing them once won't really make a dint. but hey, whatever floats your boat

Hey, I may be a pawn within the greater good. But, damn, doesn't it feel good to make a botter cry.

As someone I know who would say: "it's the principle that matters."

Some guardian in greece did one guy in 11 hours not botting.

I fully approve of killing botter plvlers, since most of the time they are plvling their own chars. Especially annoying is if you are plvling academy members in one of the better spots and you have bots ksing you for days cuz their noobies are the wrong level so they level slower than simply killing by yourself.

I just saw spyroo (those in greece probably know her) botting in 1 of the soldier rooms on my first pass to the nachal rooms, and 1 hour later when I passed by the noob was dead. Laughed my pants off.

I hate how you can't do that at the shades and flowers, that's a shame. Yetis go back like 10m from the tree by that rock spot...I tried like 5 times, but didn't work.

Dont know what you guys are talking about jealousy, I personally have nothing against someone powerlvling friends or stuff like that as long as its by legit means, if someone wants to go uber lazy, and bot while powerlvling, then I'm sorry but I can only make things harder for them.

How does it feel good when the botter doesnt give a flying ****? its you who is losing time my friend. You could spend that time leveling, stalling, etc. If you murder some noobs being powerleveled they are not going to notice at all. They will make it up in 1 hour.

And yea, jealous much? :roll:

yeh... it's pointless to spend your time doing that. It's a game, not your neighborhood, so just sit and relax, because every game's purpose it to have fun. I don't care about sosun, I don't care if I am popular on the server, I don't care if I am stronger than you or he, I just want to have fun and release all the stress I carry on from the daily activities. Best tip is to find good friends in game and do stuff together, like train, pvp, jobs or just chat nosense stuff :D

Wow, guys. Such hostility.

I do this whenever I'm grinding and just happened to spot a botter power-leveling players. It isn't a waste of time, as you can see, it is my enjoyment. So scratch "waste of time." Botters do care. Why? Because why would they turn around and murder me? Lol.

I don't care what a botter thinks, probably too lazy to think and use a bot pro gram to think for themselves. Sure, I've met some great people who bot. But how would you like it if someone KS'd you several times higher than you?

It really makes me think those who oppose this (with great hostility) are botter themselves. I'm not saying you are, just gives me the thought of it. Why else would you defend this or create accusation of myself being "jealous" or use obscene words?

I've all ready told everyone that I do it out of enjoyment. Is that a waste of time? If so, then I guess playing Silkroad Online is a waste of time.

By the way. For the record, enjoyment is the same as to have fun. :roll:

i strongly disagree with your opinion, in fact i rather have someone bot his own char up for couple reasons and none of them are jealousy

1- most of those players who are being power leveled claim to be legit
2- they are afk grinding what is the difference of killing them or killing bots?
3- being lazy and bot is far better than being lazy sit on a horse and let other get the blame of being botters.
4- why would anyone be jealous of someone who sits on a horse all day starring at his screen? far worse than watching your bot grind.

even the most crying kids out there who were anti bot don`t mind sitting on a horse tracing a botter, suddenly it pays off to get botting friends its that bad that botting is simply accepted and being used now, why not simply go pay for your own bot and grind away?

i only agree on the fact that its a time waste to do these kinda things.

power leveling for example a cleric is awesome since i know on later levels he/she will increase my own grinding speed same for any other build that can help my own char while i grind, there is nothing wrong with power level as long as its done by hand grinders.

Exactly. High-five! Power to the anti-botters :!: It'd be cool if there was 300 of us left. :D

I have nothing against power-leveling. I even defended it in the "Is power-leveling legit?"

Oh, but it's so much fun. I have a 20 kill count, by the way.

Sounds like something a botter would say. Not to point any fingers~

The hostility and lack of kindness on this forum is a serious put off.

I agree, but I also agree theres tons of botters who are great people. and people who say "botters suck" or "botters are lazy need to level by themselves" etc etc, basically hating them and thinking they all need to die irl piss me off. >_> It's okay if you hate "botters" but think of them outside the game..they're just cool people who are too lazy to level. plus, half these people who claim they are "legit" have botted or bought gold, or did something of the like, I think it's obvious this community will never accept people who bot, but it's also obvious Joymax don't plan on putting any serious effort into fixing it either

edit: some of them.
