I have been seeing some people spamming about bots, but i am very skeptical about this. Dont get me wrong, i am not saying "there are not a single bot". There always is. But i am just making a pool:

In your opinion how many of those 3.000 daily players are actually bots?

Hard to tell. You have to pay monthly for each account of EAC bypass, so if someone wants to run 10 bots, he need to pay 10 times each month, but for sure someone will try to get profit with bots.

 

I think for now not so many, maybe 100. But if someone starts to sell KKs and the price worth the cost of botting, soon it will be much more.

Probably some, but proportionally, way fewer than before -- waaaayyyyy fewer.

3k players in RoT? This is surprising. If EAC actually works, RoT is actually kind of tempting. Would be better if RoT was P2P. Botters would hve to pay more  :heh:  :heh:  :heh:

^ LOL, but Warpportal knows that majority of those pay account card is either stolen cards or cards that have no money but always get charge back.

If I have to guess, I'd say about 10% of them are bots, but don't quote me on that number. This is because around every ten people I run into, one always exhibits many of the patterns and bahaviors that bots so often do.

 

If you're curious and want to see it in action, go to one of the popular leveling places (especially for lower-level players like Payon fields) and target the enemy that a player is about to attack; if that player immediately, like IMMEDIATELY, changes its target, it's probably a bot; and if you do it again to its second target and the player immediately changes enemies again, it's for sure a bot.

Hello,

This is not a very constructive topic. Firstly, the count on the login screen is not the server's population. The numbers are for "current active logins".

Secondly, please do not take matters in your hands and grief players. If you suspect a user of bot activity to send in a ticket using Warpportal ticket tool [link].

That's said, because this topic has a great potential to call out others with names seeing that the latest post has been removed, I will have to close it for now and discuss it with the staff.

 

Thank you for understanding :)
