The newest version of a very popular Loader auto-heals your pet, ride, and transport.
The line between Loader and bot is getting increasingly blurred
Time to switch to trader i think........

not at all - i just know that very very many people use that loader and im wondering if that really qualifies them as botters now... although you dont have to turn those functions on i guess...
If the servers stay nice and clear like they have been for the last 2 days i guess any excuses for using the loader will be gone
But if you look at rev6 at the guildless members in each server you'll notice the number has jumped about 2k on each server since the ban (that's 2k new characters to replace the banned ones...)

so are you saying a person will use a bot loader but not ganna use the bot functions just the pet auto heal? And your asking if this will qualify him/her as a botter?

i lol'd
been playing this for 2 years now, that's why i say it.
Ok let's get the auto pot option off just like it was before.
I dont see a problem auto healing a pet. It's common sense.
edit: +1 to smurf.

The loader isnt a bot (it wont attack for you). Until today the only thing it really did was make it easier to login (by stopping SRO from closing on "cannot connect due to traffic") and harder to disconnect and another few things like auto-accept resurrect for people sitting AFK in a taxi. These were minor things and i dont think many people thought using the loader was unfair to others.
But now it's doing things that directly effect gameplay. Having auto-heal on your transport makes you far less vulnerable to thieves (NPC and player), likewise having auto-heal on your horse and pet.
So should we be worried about this?
(FYI its happened before - SRO back in 2005 had no auto-pot function, but people with bots and loaders had these functions. SRO eventually implemented our current auto-pot function to rule out any unfair advatage botters would have)

The way I see it.. if you need a programme to keep your pet alive then you are pretty noob lol.
The no DC clients arent legit as it is, while they dont allow you to bot tey are stil an alterd client.
There realy is nothing to discuss here, I mean as you said they dont attack for you so they dont make you a bot... are they legit.. that is a different topic.

Everyone is going on about pet.... but the more important thing here is Transport healing... that has far more effect on gameplay...(IMO)

This so called 'loader' is just a bot. It's a program (ro-bot) that does things for you.

No need to discuss the Features of the loader here.
