Botting is good for your health.
Botting = Less time at computer
Less time at computer = more chance of activity
more chance of activity = increased health and more babes.
Henceforth botting will get you babes, better health, less numbness in the ass, and last of all 5 level 80 characters. Me=Fail
So then if you want to avoid all those things, why bot? What is the goal? What are you trying to achieve by botting? What do you mean by activity? You're generalizing Legits and you're generalizing botters. Using the computer is an activity, simply being awake coins the term "active." You want to have a life but you don't want to "waste" time playing a game, so why bot at all? Playing the game with your hands is the whole goal, they made the game with that purpose in mind. Really what is the goal, the point of botting? To have 5 level 80s in a game you don't like, or care for? So in theory didn't you waste your money? And if this game is so important why do you want any level 80s in the first place? If you saw the game was to much of a grind for you to handle why not quit and move on?
"OMG ~ a high level killed my character, I'm going to take this extremely seriously, act like its a big deal, and bot so I can get my revenge on that high level. Later I will rationalize my actions by saying I have a life" ~ Yeah, I'm calling your bullshit.
Now to actually tackle your argument:
"Botting helps your health" ~ How can you make this conclusion? Are you saying all Legits are over unhealthy and botting by some miracle made them healthy or are you saying that botting is an excuse for people with no self-control. After 2 years of playing this game I now have an image of what a botter is:
A selfish person with no self control who scapegoats others for their problems, ignoring the fact that they're contributing to the problem. GG
