Interesting responses to this post.

I must point out that it seems that for prior use of a Bot I was suspended and punished, and then again, and then again.

I do understand that Evony can do what it wants, just seems a tad foolish to chase away players and to continue to do so, for something that when i started playing was not a forbidden thing. It was a war game and for a while it was fun, any edge was used to get your army larger and better. Somewhere along teh way Evony has decided to change the way the game is played, and maybe now they game controllers want to shut it down.
