There are a few differences between Venus and the other servers (excepting Odin and Hera, I assume).
The few high level player bots are whiners. They complain about how the legits are ruining the server because they're so "intolerant."
Legits own the fort and will always own the fort. This discourages the botters, some of whom move to an older server where they can join a bot guild in a union that owns the fort.
There are regular bot traps that can run effectively for hours even by low levels. I do it at 3x and rarely get harassed.
There are a few other anti-bot measure in place or about to be in place that I don't need to discuss here but overall, the situation on Venus is the reverse of other servers.
The player bots are weaker than the legits and on the defensive.
The goldbots end up contributing more to legits (via their gear and taxes) than they do to themselves. I've gotten thousands of pots and plenty of gear and wonderful weapon elixirs.
And I'm not even mentioning how helpful and supporting the legit community is amongst themselves.
