Well i was wondering which program bot creators use, and if you guys got a link for the program.

Thanks!

The fact that you know what program they use doesn't mean you can make a bot, lol. The most used programming languages are Python, Java, VB, C# and C++. If you do want to make a bot I suggest you start learning Python. It is the easiest language and is a good basis if you want to go over to other languages.

My personal favorites:
For C#, VB and C++:

For Java:

Not going to add a Python compiler as I don't really know what is best when it comes to that.

Also, this would fit better in the programming section. It has been asked many times before. The search button is there for a reason.

VB.net is easy to learn, im takeing a few classes on it atm.

VB.net is not only easy, it's practically useless.
Nice for GUI creations and easy file IO, but if you want to get into writing REAL, powerful bot applications you should learn cpp. C# is also pretty nice, basically C++ on a higher level.

C#, Java or C++ are the main things anyone would use to code anything advanced (C++ if it's really advanced in MANY cases)

C# is very easy to learn... it's actually VERY similar to Java though so basically it's up to you which one you prefer. If you are interested in private servers (and aren't on a level where you can code your own) go with C# seeing as all the public sources are written in it (gives you GREAT examples for handling connections and encryption/decryption/packets... which is basically everything you could ever need to code a proxy)

Python is ok but in my (limited) experience it's more for scripting... it's great cause it can be used to easily in combination with larger programs in other languages but in the small amount I've used it I'd HATE to have to write a full large scale program in it... It's definitely useful for handling smaller functions and scripts as part of a larger program though (and it's so simple to learn the basics in it...)
