The problem is that almost all RMT are in fact monitored.
Captcha Breaker. Program designed to break Captchas. The program is automated. Call people idiots all you want, but all a Captcha is is an image on one side (whether image of text, or pictures), and those images are sent to the client to be verified, thus the data can be read by programs and identified. Even without such programs, you simply have to figure out how the Captchas work within a game, then use Image Recognition Software and a bit of scripting to bypass the Captchas. With text, itâs even easier, since any Captcha solving software only has to look for text (itâs not stored as an image, since the data input on the player side is typed text). With images, they are determined by x/y coordinates, regardless of location randomization. Those coordinates coordinates can be read⌠But most programs will just look at your entire screen for the images and solve them.
Oh, and the staff themselves have said they can be broken easily, thus the reason theyâre not implementing them (see here: https://treeofsavior.com/news/?n=377 ). Calling them idiots, too? Guess youâre just calling names because you cannot think of a more creative solution than Captchas. Those games that have them added probably arenât all that large in terms of population, or just donât have RMT bots.
I donât disagree that Captchas will probably work for your average idiotic botter that is just botting because they are casual players who donât have the time to grind for materials and Silver, but theyâre not going to work against RMT distribution companies, which usually have a person watching the screens at all times for such things (they will even react to GM interaction, but typically ignore players). They have more than enough money to keep coming back to this game, regardless of how many times they are banned. Pretty sure they have their own software to counter things like Captchas, as well as general bypasses for existing Anti-Hack software. All they have to do is purchase the Anti-Hack software themselves, and more or less reverse-engineer it in a way that allows them to understand how the program works, and how to work around it.
Before this it was tolerable amount of bot, but this time, this is just insane! I made a new character because I messed up with a build, now Iâm wasting time doing quest because these legion of bots are ksing people around. It is not even possible to grind with this much bot around. This is getting absurd. - SEA player
Oh, but itâs your fault for being a low level character. Guess youâll just have to go quest somewhere where there isnât bots. I-Is this your first F2P game? LOL
Yes Iâm being sarcastic. The number of bots in the earlygame is too damn high. I canât wait to see what kind of numbers weâll see in a couple weeks.
