Avidity, why the heck wouldnāt you reply to the GM? Thatās crazy.
I will say though, for all the people in this thread who havenāt checked Dina Bee Farm since the GMās āsweepā: 90% of the bots are still there. In fact, most of the obvious ones are still there, including all of the sorc bots AND all of the sorc macro users(thereās a difference).
This GM, for all their good intentions, doesnāt yet have the game knowledge necessary to properly detect bots and discern them from real players. You can see their ādetection methodā in the OPās video and itās clearly haphazard.
They also made the golden mistake of making a public appearance and even ANNOUNCING where they would check for bots during a sweep. Every semi-AFK macro user across every server wouldāve known by the time the GM got there to stop macroing and attend their screens, making bot hunting extraordinarily difficult.
While I cannot in good conscience defend the OPās decision to not respond to the GMās prompt for a reply, someone does need to teach GM DURIAN how to actually check for bots. That bot hunting effort displayed tonight was truly embarrassing.
