    Wrong. Its Coining Botters vs Botters

    Although there were bots in the first year they were very hushed and not widespread. They were also very different than todays bots. The full potential of bots was not realised until maybe 2 years ago. Even when bots became widespread they were only really used for building and farming and some basic defenses. Now the only thing u have to do is refresh the bot once in a while and it will do everything for you.

    altho now u have to bot otherwise u are left behind and wont get anywhere in the without it.....its part of the game now accept it or leave simple as
    There were botters early on. THey were just well hushed and nowhere near as advanced as what we see today. I remember the stay up all night days. When in an established alliance your AC wouldnt go 5 mins without chatter. Now you can go hours without talk in it.

    I started around W57 or whatever it was called and there was bots. I personally nvr used one becus i was noob but when i was on W69 i faced botters and they were no match against a coiner.

    Bots vs. Coiners, coiners win. Bots vs non-coiners, non-coiners win. Coiners vs. non-coiners, coiners win. Coiners are supreme :P

    And drag you to Hell with me, For an eternity.

    coiners are the worst offenders of botting. I think they helped start the trend but I dont know since most people use them now.

    IF coiners would learn how to fight the game might be fun again rather than relying on coin to help them have troops before everyone then when everyone catches up they quit its a sad structure really never learn to actually play keep jumping svrs when ppl catch up buy yourself an advantage again ppl catch up quit buy another advantage on the next svr its a never ending cycle of evony getting money from ppl who dont even actually know how to play the game

    The one thing that REALLY irritates me is these imbeciles that write " its part of the game now accept it or leave simple as " This attitude has effectively killed the game . Look at the dismal player rates on the new servers 175 and 176 , around 50 % ( dont forget , that INCLUDES one-day play inactives AND fillers ) . I warned about this and got slapped down and reprimanded in this very forum some time ago and have been proven right . THE problem with Bots / helpers / bobs , butlers -etc is that they allow MULTI accounting on a grand and unsustainable scale . Example - Ive seen 25 - 30 waves of 90k + Transporters ( yes you read that right ) heading to a single player EVERY day . You would have to agree that is a hell of a lot of res , and he sure as hell didnt farm / plunder the res . Coiners have always been here - no problem , its the fact that to merely survive you have to have many alts ( I dont as yet ) and they obviously have to be run by a helper ( one alliance GM , ordered us to have at least 6 x 9 city alts each ) . Evony is obviously on a game suicide mission , it has just given up . I have NEVER seen a player banned for botting or having multi-accounts .

    Just Saw this......
    "As you have noticed we have implemented a captcha system that works to remove bots from the server. We are testing this on server SS57 as a precourser to rolling it out on all new servers, or perhaps to all existing servers. We have implemented this in a way to minimize the effect on legit players, and maximize the effect on cheaters. Please read this response carefully before reporting back an issue to the CS Team.

    1.During your gameplay experience you will have a captcha screen come up at a random point during your session generally less then 1 time every 2 hours. (see #6 below)

    2.You must answer the captcha within 5 tries, if you do not that is considered one incorrect answer.

    3.If you do not answer correctly you will be disconnected after 4 incorrect answers and will be required to answer captcha on next login

    4.If you close the window that is considered an incorrect answer and will be required to enter the captcha on your next login.

    5.If you send game commands while the window is open you will be disconnected immediately. (note you cannot do this while using the official Evony Client, and we will be tracking this data to suspend botters.)

    6. Repeated failure of answering the questions will decrease the time between being asked for the captcha. Where as correct answers will increase the time between being asked.

    This is currently implemented on one server, we are looking to see the response on this to roll out to either all servers or all new servers.

    If you have any behavior that is not explained by these rules, please report back to us via helpspot/cs system. Please be aware that we will be looking very closely at the data on accounts that report back to us with problems in regards to the captcha, if we find bot use the accounts will be suspended and or terminated. The Use of bots is very easy to identify when we manual review the logs. "

    I bet they wait to release 50 until this test is resolved, or 50 will be released with this same thing happening.....will be interesting to see how this turns out.
