I'll be leaving Evony but not in anger, in boredom. NPC farming is boring and time consuming. To compete at the fun levels in this game requires farming of resources. The bot made it possible for me to compete with players having much more time than me. The fun in this game is in the attacking and defending. The "chores" like farming and queing troop production have to represent less time and effort than the fun parts. Without the bot it doesn't.
Developers: consider a "General" or quest of sorts that provides more automation for farming. For me the quitting threshold is the boredom from farming. With the bot, or something like it, I'd continue to play for a long time to come.
I'm one of those who has never spent a penny on the game. You may consider me expendable because of that. However, consider that last week a player teleported 7 cities away from me after a battle, he bought those teleporters because of me. Players like me are not without merit, even to the bean counters.
So, I thank you, Evony, I enjoyed the game. The end point for me is the boredom factor induced by manual npc farming. Remove that issue and this player would continue to play. I'm sure there are many like me.
Be well,
Grinding
