ppl just say that because most people who bot and buy silk havent been banned. doesnt mean that joymax really doesnt ban silk buyers who bot(because that would be bad business), but u never know

So many player bots who have premium (or evidence of buying silk) are still in the game playing. Although a lot of botters who do purchase silk have been ban, this is very sadly not that common, which leads to a lot of speculation from players about JM's preferential treatment and hesitance to act in the threat of a massive chargeback.

They are just closer to being untouchable than a legit non silk buyer.
They do it 1 by 1 because it takes time. If they got rid of all the silk buying botters they would lose out on a lot of money. More botters guy gold than legit players so they can't afford to lose all of them.

They are just more likely to ban the bottom of the barrel botters that barely buy any silk.

the reason the botters that buy silk get banned is because they havent bought silk within a 6 month period therefore they can no longer file a chargeback request. :wink: :wink:
