Now everyone is happy and Evony is making even more money.

    Don't hold your breathe for an internally developed Evony bot. This convo happened over a year ago.
    It wasn't a long conversation.

    The challenge you will find, and I believe I told you this as one reason why it won't happen. We build and offer a bot, and internet lawyers then decide that we're sanctioning all bot usage, and have kittens if we wiped them out. It would create more CS issues than it's worth, as of now, it's quite simple: No botting, no way to misconstrue that.

    why not make the in game changes so that to replicate few of those functions, so that you are not making an official bot, just making the farming part easier.

    I agree with that idea, and have some ideas for that which I've been working on.

    Thought I would put this in here rather than start a new thread as it's along the same lines.

    There are a lot of whispers going around in game chat that a lot of players over several servers have been banned over the last few days after being caught exploiting a coin glitch.
    Not seen anything said in here about this, was wondering if there was any truth in this or if anyone had heard anything?

    Yeah, when we catch cheaters, we ban them. If you're not cheating, you got nothing to worry about.
    Thats a lie. My room mate cheats and bots. Got caught and I got an IP ban, So now I am responsible for others? I live in a dorm, lots play and share an IP. We All got banned.

    oh. I thought a bot was simply a device that allowed you to continue playing the game without having to be physically present.

    well, the hammer item I had always thought was a concept to cut back on botting because it made one of the repetitve annoying tasks in Evony a little easier, today though I see that Evony is trying to encourage third party software by makeing the favorites button not work anymore. This button made it a little easier to perform ingame tasks but with it dismantled I guess everyone will just have to continue useing bots. As far as the stupid in-game popups go, instead of trying to fix this I recommend scap the whole idea since it is clearly just another way to annoy people who still log in to client mode to play the game.
