How to catch a vend bot?

Can anybody tell me?
Evan SAID :when the vending shop is empty but not close tht not standing to he/she is a bot?

Then how can i identify?

But i heard many guys said this before..If the shop is empty but the shop is not close tht mean ,she/he is using bot
is this right?

Vend bots open their shop immediately, a lot of times inhuman like set up times. When they DC they automatically reconnect and their shop is up immediately. Normally the only way to really check a vend bot is to have a GM do it. We have our methods

Yeah empty shop=bot. Unless there's some bug in the vending skill that I'm unaware of. Players immediately close their shops after the last item is sold. While you can't actually identify a vend bot unless you get lucky and they for example, walk with their shops on or have empty shops, a lot of vend bots have something thanks ridiculously expensive to prevent their shop from being left on empty. I.E people vending apples for 50 mil or jellopies for 500 mil or something.

Sometimes, but not always the case. There is actually a bug that makes it so that the vends stay open even after everything has been sold. I've looked at the bot coding and there isn't anything which makes it stay open after everything has been sold. In fact, most of the vend bots will automatically go and restock once empty, or completely just disconnect and log off once empty.

Also not a every bot will do the "pricing high" to leave shop open, a lot of players do this as well for various reasons. To market their shop name, to be humorous, sheer boredom, etc.

I find that majority of the time, vendors that are reported with their shops open, pass bot check

So there is a bug in the skill o.o; I always thought that the bot would leave the shop open forone reason or another, but well thanks for clearing up :3

I see so GM can disconnect the vender that have suspicion of botting.
That's quite clever.

[Aozora]

GM's can do tons of crafty things, DC'ing is jsut one basic way to do it.
DC vend bot > Vend bot immediately logs back and sets up shop in less then 2 seconds > Repeat few times. If the result repeats every time then I'd at least ban it for botting. However as I said, there are craftier things as well ;3

Would ppl seriously go to the limit of Bot vending? seriously, If they even have to bot for vending than they shouldn't play this dang game at all.  Go play lay on your bed or something, less effort and less buttons to click.

I would if I could >.>

If any merch vending while he/she was muted that 100 % vending bot.

If any merch vending unidentify item that also 100 % vending bot.

Like err move the vendor into the middle of Odin temple perhaps?

Vending of unidentifiable items was fixed a long time ago.

The point of vend bots: Automatically reconnects and sets up shop on DC also they can also automatically set up a new shop if the old one is sold out
