The player's / GM's bot identification methods

Post by roflcopter »

Hello all, i quite often grind with chat box closed, music on and just gettin on with it. I do this cos i dont want to be bothered and usually im looking for any excuse not to grind (like helping trades, pvp'ing the guild newbies etc... :p)

Im just concerned now that if other players PM me, maybe thinking im botting or even the event that a GM PM's me and gets no reply cos the box is shut...does that give them a good enough reason to judge that im botting cos i didnt see their message??

Other players might, you would have to see them on screen to see their message above their head. However a GM's words show up in the Purple/Pinkish letters across your screen, like the notices I think. So you would have to be blind to miss that one.

Sorry, but it just sounds like your botting, just don't F12, and don't close chat.
Just respond if you have to.

Considering that JoyNax doesn't ban botters, you wouldn't have anything to worry about even if you were botting. :banghead:

BlackFox, sorry but welshkorn is right. Sometimes it's really hard to understand your 'English'...you should consider some English classes.

and roflcopter, dont be worried..GM's arent on that often and they will always come to you when they're checking you =)

You usually will see the GM.

And welshkorn, he could quite possibly not even be botting, and just have his windows minimized. accusing with no evidence remains wrong.

Why! don't *cough* on me! It 's because he only asked a question and you start to jump on him and say "your botting" or it sounds like he is botting just because he wont respond...or see the message. :)

i wouldn't jump to the conclusion that he was botting just because he doesn't want to be bothered while grinding. the people who do accuse someone of that imo their accusations have no validity whatsoever. so fu.k 'em bro and keep grinding to your soundtrack. peace.

I agree.

I have my messgae window minimised for the "viewing/gaming experience"

It's also easy to miss a GM's message when party applications are stuck in your face every 30 seconds.

And if someone does get banned, like i did, don't expect any answer as to why.

Maybe JM should get rid of the F12 option if they are using online chat for an excuse to ban people.

why are you being dumb...that was the most foolish thing i have heard. just because some people bot doesn't mean he does. He shouldn't be accused of it either. Whatever his reason may be for not looking at chat. Why should he make sure that you don't think he's botting? get over yourself. you know what, i don't respond to alot of people in game and i don't care what they think of me. Because as soon as they throw their stupid ice spell at me, they are dead. You want vigilante justice, fine, i'll deliver.

Actualy I understand the people who use the F12 function. Not everyone have a bad ass pc setup with all the latest gear. Some people have to use low resolution and with low res textbox and other stuff covers all screen.

But if you see someone standing next to you trying to talk to you or use ice on you, you might wanna quit the F12 and look what he is saying.

And if a GM is checking you if you bot, I bet you will notice it ;)

I don't think it justifies a thing, I get multiple PM's a day while grinding.. I used to respond and never got a reply back so I just don't bother now.
