I started play TOS since one week before the FTP release, since I enter the game the very first time I was saluted by a Bot Spammer and they basically never left, there are also farmimg bots at any location with a good mob respawn and quantity.
IMC have tried to stop them restricting the Market, the trades and the interaction between real players, wich is one of the most atractive feature on an MMO, where you can negotiate with other players and you are just free to use your in game currency as you wish, however in a lost war against the bots IMC just penalizes us as players, it doesn’t matter if you are casual player or hardcore asian farmer, negotiating between parties is always good in a grinding game, because you feel rewarded by spending hours of grinding, however we got doomed to use the market that by some extrange reason really hard to find for most of us gives us the currency two days latter after the fee or tribute, and you guys know the economy at this game changes on a daily basis.
Still the bots are there, you can report them as many times you want and the bots keep there for days even weeks, it doesn’t mater if you report them in game or take screenshots and post them here because they wont leave, they wont get banned until weeks, I saw a GM last week at Klaipeda at Tenet Church B1 where I was farming Battle Bracelet from a mob that spawns every three minutes and they are very few mobs to farm, then the GM moved to other area and just few bots where taken out, the other ones are still there, they where farming around the GM and he just ignored them.
Now we are getting all the penalizations, they have taken the wrong way to take care of them, IMC could implement something like PunkBuster or anyother way to detect third party programs that affect the game, however they are restricting us to play their game, this is a topic we have discussed before, but we have not received any oficial clear answer, since the beta of the game we are giving with bits of information, at first I though they were to hermetic with their information, but now we are trying to understand what the skills really do, how they work, the game has a lot of mechanics that we are discovering and it is good but all the restrictions we have are becoming really annoying.
Please if anyone can explain to us about the 2 days period to get your money, the non currency trades, and the way trading player to player its supposed to be on this game will be great.
I like the game I enjoy the farming even the lack of information from IMC but there are some methods ther are just not understanding, the bots are still breaking the market, the bots are still farming, spamming, getting every time more annoying to the players, this should not be a war between IMC and gold sellers, IMC is the owner of the game and they are supposed to be interested in their game players because we are the costumers we are giving them our money, but noone wants to go to the movies to be unable to choose the movie, to choose your snaks, because they know whats better for us.
