Real problems. To IMC

General Discussion
#1

The real problem that should be resolved is not a number of players on the server can support it or not. But the problem is the players use bot, and it makes players in telsiai do not want it to happen.

One of the way to solve the problem is players have to pay for register ID
so they can recognize ID is worth and they will not make the wrong thing. If you make a mistake, you have to pay for a fine.Free to play doesn’t mean free everything. I think at least people have to pay for register. Paying for register is like buying item from game. Free is only for playing but not for making mistake.

Pay monthly = not F2P
Pay register = F2P (No pay monthly)

FREE to play.
not BUY to play; FREE…
not MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION… but FREE…
is “free” a word you simply don’t understand?

not only that, but during Founders’ period, the bots and gold-sellers had to PAY to get in, and guess what: THEY GOT IN.

learn to search the forum. this has been suggested before, and was just as terrible an idea back then.

He’s trying to say to make players pay before being able to register or something. Sadly, B2P, P2P you name it all, these does not prevent bots at all. Look at FFXIV which is B2P + P2P subscription based, it still has bots.

We need a GM death squad to instantly teleport to the location of people who are reported as bot and smash the ban hammer on who deserve it (while being invisible/cloaked of course). Not a long term solution, but it’s clearly an effort to combat RMT.

#6

yes, this would totally work, because professional GM’s will totally work around the clock for free.

#7

It doesn’t have to be free, employee of IMC maybe but then again IMC is too cheap for that. Doesn’t have to be around the clock either.

#8

well if it isn’t around the clock, the bots will go away and only come on when that gm isn’t on shift.

plus you need 5 gm; one for each server.

#9

Yup, that’s why it’s a squad. Controlling the time when bots can be active seems like a big step towards the right direction to me. :beer: . More importantly people will likely complain less.

#10

except for the ones who happen to play during the time the bots are active.
when they’ll be 5x as active.

it’s a solution that costs a lot and fixes nothing.

#11

Quite a pessimist aren’t you. This game makes me salty too.Right now everyone need hope. I personally think this way people will at least have some hope and faith in the company that’s running their game while being a little bit impactful to the bots. (Yes I watched all seasons of Failling Skies) :lollipop:

i’m all for hope and solutions.

but a halfass solution that costs a lot of money, and doesn’t actually fix anything… is really just another problem.

42h week (6h x 7days), 52 weeks/year… at a cheapo rate of say, $7/hr… $15,000ish.
for -one- server, only 25% of the time.
one server, full time: $65,000ish/year.
5 servers full time, $325,000ish/year.

this is a pretty huge expense, and still only partially covers the problem.
just having GM’s lurk in town is only going to work on bots they can see, whether in public chat or shout.
the PM-bot spam isn’t going to be immediately obvious to them.

i’m not saying it’s impossible to fix the problem, i’m only saying that this isn’t the correct way to approach it.

now on the flip side, they could definitely use a couple more GM’s to respond to tickets and other problems…

TBH i havent noticed as many grinding bots running around… if they could only get rid of the spammers in town now id be happy.

Ill use this argument that people love to use… im sure botters wont read this though

Its 2016! people dont respond to intrusive ads like that anymore. You think people actually read popup ads? no they just hit the x on them all without reading. In this case, hit block. Spamming like that only makes people hate you and want to get rid of you. Thats not how you get people interested in your product. Not to mention its making people quit which means less customers for you and hurts the game your trying to make a profit off of.

I wish the spammers would realize this.
