Hello, Im noticing that Kafra is all over the place. Its has the options randomized. This is becoming frustrating. Was this intentional?  

[Magmag]

Let's not make this randomization permanent

[djxstatik]

I guess this not affecting many people or just not a big issue!

I think this only occurs on the one at Payon. Pront/Izlude seems fine.

[Xaxaxa]

Yes, the one at Payon gives random options. Its a wee bit of a hassle if you are used to scrolling down blindly because you know where the options are and then suddenly find yourself in storage instead of a warp list.

[kuyaeze]

it's probably an anti bot measure.. atleast i think it is,

[Necrohealiac]

some of the expansion cities don't give you the VIP storage option anymore (like Hugel)

will be funny to see bots got trolled and warped to other city instead

[Exuro]

This is actually a good idea. I hope this isn't a bug.

[Shippou22]

there should be a " i am a bot, please ban me" option in the list, no sane person would click it, but if a random bot clicks on it, we have one less problem to worry about (in b4 inocents clicking it by mistake)

This was an attempt to mess with bots we will revert it next week.

[Necrohealiac]

nothing wrong with anti-bot measures, but can you take a look at the missing kafras/missing second storage options to make sure they're where they're supposed to be?

I'm pretty sure it would mess more with real people than bots.
A few bots would fall for it, then they would get adjusted and go on.
Real people have a hard time adjusting and would fall for the wrong options more.

Not if the options get scrambled EACH TIME you talk to the NPC... and real people will get used to it eventually as opposed to bots.

[TontonAlarcon]

options does change each time you talk to payon kafra. i've been sitting near payon kafra for quite sometime. it's fun to see bots getting warped 

[Necrohealiac]

There should be an insta-death option

[Exuro]

Please don't remove this CMs.

[fuyukikun]

Please don't remove this CMs.

i second this. and put this in comodo, amatsu and other city with high density bots.

[Alaska]

Keep it pls, +1 to add a "kill me" option. :B

Agreed, but don't add it to *some* towns, add it to ALL kafras and Cool event corp NPCs.

Bots can easily be updated to respond to the content of the choices rather than the offsets. Then they'll be able to speed through Kafra dialogs at the same rate as before, while real players will be slowed down permanently because no matter how much you "get used to" the idea of randomization, bots can always locate the correct choice much more quickly than humans can.

I think, all kafras need to give math problems to access the storage for free.

Then one day all Kafras should start giving physics questions for some extra bonus storage.

[DeadIntern]

Put Captcha to access kafra.
