On skype, I was talking to some old friends for a SS I used to play. I quit before the 3rd merger (over crowding). Anyway this alliance consists of 80+members 50 active rest are feeders. The feeders are botted 24/7, most of the main accounts are not.
Of the 50 active members, all have at least 20 vestas. My buddy has 32 vestas, in the last 3 weeks he has accept 125 Evony Chests and is sitting on 625 chests. Minus the probably 100 he has already purchased.
Once the captcha is implemented, some will holiday in hopes of a workaround or something like that. Most will quit and procede to chargeback.
If evony thinks they will not lose income from this they are stupid.
I do not personally bot, but I rely on other bots to feed me. I have a life now because I can port once or twice a week and feed my -150mil warcity easily. My other cities I farm manually with surplus. Plus I have 26 vestas stacked.
If I cant keep at least a -150mil warcity, I will stop playing. We have grown accustomed to huge wars, killings 10s of millions of troops in an 1hrs time.
You really want to stop the lag stop the feeders....the alts and the fillers.
I am betting that new account creation takes up allot of bandwidth. And all the cities sitting with only 5k trans and 5k ballistas farming none stop eats it up.
Plus, people will find a way to cheat. The captcha will just change cheaters tactics, for example now they will just purchase all the Prinz accounts they can find. Cap 10 lvl 10s, build warriors and power lvl poli heroes then farm those feeders. Getting 20mil loss less food per hour, on top of their lvl 10 farming.
Cheaters will cheat, but it is fun beating the cheaters.
