The real farmer bots this genre is known for are already in the 100+ level areas and they have real(ish) names, donāt form giant flash mobs and donāt camp in the same spot for hours. They basically play like slightly below average humans.
Because theyāre not very noticeable I canāt imagine they get reported much so the operators must be making a healthy ROI.
Compare that to the group running those bots from the video who have lost a lot of money and are still having to spend more because it isnāt possible to steal debit cards and steam accounts fast enough to support a horde with that much attrition (most of the bots banned are theirs).
So either profit isnāt a motive or these people are a bit dumb and think in f2p theyāll recover their losses. Iām starting to think itās the former.
