So whos still botting?

What bot were you using before the mass ban, and which one are you using now?

Did you get suspended at all?

Was using ktz before i was suspended... now im afraid to use it again

Never was suspended/banned never stopped botting since day one though I used my own bot most the time and MacroGoblin some of the time.

Thats interesting to know, hopefully more people will reply so we can narrow down which bots were caught the most.

ok, i never botted untill exactly 1 and a half days before the ban wave. i used SZ bot for about lvl 14-20, i never got banned though, it might be because they weren't tracking all recent ones or i wasn't on it long anof for a huge alarm... or something o_O

because most people with SZ are banned...

After last weeks banwave, if you didn't get banned, you well this week, I'm just glad i didn't pay for any bot.

You guys don't even know what caused the bannings... :P

And if I get banned, oh well, it's just a game. Also, i've botted for 36 hours straight this weekend. I've botted characters to 24, 33, and one to 15.

Thats not true..very few people got who use SZ got banned. The only way you are gonna get banned is by being reported. Basically get reported enough times and you are screwed. Ive been playing this ban game with NCSoft for years..every so often the do a ban wave. It happens..dont expect a mass banning again for a solid 3 weeks. They are waiting for the farmers to relvl back up and make some money back. If they ban the farmers too soon the farmers wont come back. NCSoft is smart..the realize if they let the farmers have small piece of the pie that the farmers will keep buying more accounts every time they get banned. Since they have no game guard..they have no detection other than other players. Right now there is a witch hunt out there for botters thats why you see some innocent people get banned. there are those out there reporting anyone they see hunting in there area. They figure if they are a bot..then they did a good deed..if its not a bot..oh well they just knocked out there lvling area competition.
