It was when we had the anti-bot program, but that was a while ago already.

So there may have been botters all this time? Like maybe programmed to do things where you won't normally see any botters?... I.E. Anolians -> Mermaids

It was available when we had Aegis but once we switched to eA, it no longer works :x

They need to do something about it, make the bot-Shield thingy works again or something.

Don't give the newer people an impression that bots are everywhere in our server, it is pretty sad.

It's pretty easy to bot here without any bot protection. They should get Harmony already =/ Much better than the rootkit that Zapbomb made during Aegis times.

I've heard of Harmony.  Doesn't that block certain hax as well? o:

Yeah, blocks packet editors, speed hacks, some macro programs, etc. It's only 200 bucks anyway.

Pshaw! That would mean a loss of customers! How dare you suggest such a thing.

Botting problems make for much less customers than allowing botting.

They do need to get some bot protection. I'm surprised that a server of this size doesn't have any? To be honest, that's just unprofessional.

No they're not. 200$ and you have a lifetime license.

Should I go make a suggestion thread for them to buy some anti-bot protection?

Do it. If someone like me or someone who's posted around the forums for a long time were to suggest such a thing, they might consider it trolling.

This makes no sense at all.  Wouldn't be suprised if it happened though. >_>

No, suggestions is not the place for something like that. I'll ask Talis when I see him what he thinks about it.

Ok, that's why I asked.
