They do the same exact shit every year. Ban 10-30k bots at a time, server gets populated every week from Mon-(Wed-Fri) than they come back. Now they're not even perma banning. So after a week or 2 they all come back in waves. Woo! If you want a bot-free SRO, go make your own private server.
Here's a summary for all you nobs getting excited: 1) Never IP ban, JM too lazy/dumb. 2) Goldbots will be back within a week. 3) Server only stay populated in part due to the popular free bot used by many going pay 2 use. 4) JM does this every year, learn to pick up trends. 5) After a month or so, JM will go back to ignoring bots and pretend all is good.
I've yet to see some actual high lvl players get banned, like perma banned. This new system just makes it seem like they're doing something, but they could easily ban bots 1-2 times than ignore them. We'll still get ban lists of over 10-30k ppl, but they will just come back in a week or so.
lol, every post that is an attempt to show that joymax is trying or at least making some attempted effort , you weasel your way in and bash it somehow ..why do you even still play?..really.. you have nothing positive to say about the game and its staff.. maybe its time for you to make the switch to Aion or WoW

Oh right, you posted that on the other forum where we got the bot... *waiting for people to pm and ask for a bot*

Well, I don't completely agree with him, but I'm playing WoW already and I'm going to try Aion also. I have to say that WoW is actually way better then iSRO imo.

You can't ever! say what the best mmorpg is. You can say what you prefer but you can't say which is best. I ain't saying that silkroad is the best game even though i love playing it. Wow isn't great for me. Too many quests, but that's only for me. That doesn't make the game bad for everybody else

sigh.
They can't ban a single character without banning the entire account. If your character gets banned for botting, you can't even log into the account itself. You lose the other characters (legit or not) that are on that same account.
Joymax (in the past) simply listed the individual character that was banned for botting even though the entire account was banned.

The same thing has been happening for years now. every now and again one or more of the following occurs: A) x number of bots get banned/suspended B) New anti-bot technology put on SRO C) some sort of update, which means goldbots cant get in
This always leads to one or more of these: A) People think the bots are gone forever B) People think the bots are gone for as long as they will continue to play
However, as always, within maybe a few hours, a few days, sometimes a week or more: A) The Nerd geeks who make bots hit a breakthrough, and its back to normal
The topics on tis matter begin to remind of people who fall for the same "gullibility" jokes over and over: John: Hey Mary, it says gullible written on ceiling Mary: wuh? *looks up* John: *steal's Mary's stuff*
wise up people. jebus.

trice , you are right...in a way , in the past, the goldbots have filed in maybe 3-4 hours after the updates etc..
the reason for this thread..is because its taken now about 24 hours and the servers are still populated..so it is a step in the right direction, and no one here can say for sure if joymax is only going to do this once , or if its going to be a weekly thing until proven otherwise ( a.k.a - only time will tell right now)
the anti-bot movement has begun..even if it is babysteps, like it or not, joymax is showing us that they are trying..
for the sake of optimism people..

hey shut up, joymax is doing the best they can to balance the bots...
anyway its a nice move, cmon its passed more than one day and theres still no traffic at all, i feel soffy for lopasas; and well i believe him. JM bans random charswhich they r not used a lot. also as i know none has already a 14 days ban lol

thats what i said. sheesh.
Sorry. I guess I missed that post. The one I quoted didn't say that, but I guess it was just sarcasm on your part. Just ignore me. :p
Edit: I'll really believe Joymax is doing something right when they start banning high level player bots. Gold bot banning is great (although they keep coming back) but if a few lvl 90+ sun player bots get banned, it will be SWEET!.
There's one on Venice (I don't know if he has sun, but he's got to be pretty high level) who used to be the GM of a guild I was in. He constantly bragged about his bot 2 years ago. I logged in last night and he was still bragging about it. Would have been nice to see him gone...

Then i guess you'll never be optimistic
what I mean is, I didn't create this topic because i think this is gonna last 24/7 but at least (as mentioned above) it is a little step.
I agree with you that after the GNGWC it might go back to normal BUT I am always optimistic
Everyone keeps creaming in their jeans, fantasizing about highlevel player bots getting banned. Lets take recent event as an example of how joymax works and if the really givva ****. Recently joymax made it so that people who legitimately conceal their own info, and havent purchased accounts would be able to safely change their password. This wreaked havoc on account buyers. What did joymax do? They did a roll back on EVERYTHING and blamed electrical problems. What about this makes any of you believe for any amount of time that this show of dishonosty and lack of integrity would lead joymax to PERMANANTLY BAN BOTTERS?!?! You people are rediculous.
@Itsune: Did you really miss "imo"? Or you don't know what does that mean? It's on or the other. And well, about the quests part, you can never do all the quests there, and you don't have to.

Of course I know what it means lol
Anyway, I tried only tried Wow for like 10 hours hehe
So if u do know what does it mean, how come you tell me that I can't say which mmo is best. I never did say anything like that, that's why I added "imo"

I guess my brain was turned off
Nah... but maybe i just didn't think about it. I normally start thinking about my answer before i read the whole post, that's why i guess

I'm not sure what you're talking about there. Hasn't it always been easy to change your own password through email verification? When they removed that, and just relied on the secret answer, people started losing their accounts (purchased or not). So they put the email verification system back up. Personally, I don't see how the rollback HELPed account buyers. Maybe I just don't know what they rolled back from/to.
From what I saw, Joymax made some kind of change... People started 'getting hacked'... Joymax changed the system back. *shrugs*

no one will know your user name or secret answer without telling them. the roll back rolled back everything. password changes, items, exp sp. it helped place purchased characters BACK into the hands of the buyers. showing joymax's support for defying their own tos. i know you arent dense prom, infact youre quite the opposite. wheres this shit coming from?
