Quote:We handled this a year ago. The bot should be declining trades and closing the window immediately.
And for the record, we don't "spam escape." That's bush league.
Quote:Self explanatory. Bot was running for quite some time. GM requested that I not spam trade, so I stopped spamming trade, electing instead to just leave a trade window open... for hours.
For those wanting to stop mining bots, simply make a macro with /trade (t) on all 15 lines, with the parenthesis replaced by the less than/greater than brackets (youtube won't allow here).
Target the bot, and stand near a node that they have in their rotation. Spam the macro as the bot approaches, and if the trade dialog stays open while you are spamming, drag an item into the trade window and then stop spamming. The bot should remain disabled until you close the window.
Most bots will spam escape to close trade dialogs, but they cannot do this while attempting to gather. This is why catching the bot just before they start to mine is crucial.
Have fun wrecking bots.
Are You sure?
I did one big mistake few days ago, when I was AFK from PC for two hours.
Farmed Snurble Tuffts + spiritbonded gear together.
Super safe farm, no danger to be killed.
When I came back, I was on my homepoint and had message in my ingame PM with ask "Hey, are you here?" - that message an one hour old.
So... I really dont know, what he did me, but I really think that he click on Trade and let mobs kill me. :(
Now I am very nervous if I am reported or not.
