why are ppl complaining about bots? it was always going to happen. still happens in wow after 7 years. now real money is involved it will become much worse.
its like wow, queens garnet on AH is on average 700 - 800g on my server (khazgoroth) yet i bought 20 of them for 7000 gold of some dude who is always in SW selling stacks of 20 for cheap, take it i got them of a gold scammer, who cares as i wasnt the one cheating, only taking advantage, alo selling sands of time for 5000 for 20, now there a vendor only item for 3000g. how are they selling 20 for 5000? i bought my vial of the sands drake of someone in trade who clearly bought these vial of the sands as i only paid 25k for my 2 seater mount. my point is blizzard has been hacked for YEARS and always will be, does it destroy my experience? not at all, actually helped me as my mount was 11,000g cheaper than the AH normally is. will it be worse now there Real money? of course!!! what did you ppl expect? lol |
He's not stealing, he bought/found a machine that can plow snow automatically, only that the snow is being plowed away from his house onto your front lawn and every other house on the street which has tens of millions other residence.
And the most common result is a chain reaction, now your neighbour 3 houses down will also do the same as he is. |
Technically anyone Botting and reaping profits are gaining profit through crime and when caught should have to pay back the amount gained. That would make my day.

do i agree with bots? no!
but ffs come on, you ppl are talking like its destroying real life. its so entertaining to read. im loving it. :D its a game, always will be a GAME. blame blizzard as there the ones who allow it and also the ones who added real money, wait till the governments jump in and want to add real tax to real money transactions. oh the outcry when that happens, personally couldnt give a shit as no in game item is worth REAL money in my mind. |

Do you honestly think the government would spend tens of thousands of dollars tracking, arresting and then going through the courts all because of a bot? I get that your white knighting, but come on even that is a little far fetched. |

TBH i think blizzard should impose caps on certain items within the game itself... SURE they reap benefits of people buying items for 1mil gold...
BUT they have a duty of care, so to stop the botting and basic monopoly of a "real money" market that the AH will develop... i'm pretty sure they'd need to do something about it... i'm sure there's a law that requires business to do some sort of duty of care/morality thingy... they always preach about that shizz here at work! :P ALSO i think that they should make any item that is purchased in the AH, bound to the account this would stop the reposting of items that are cheap for a higher price THUS "virtually" increasing the value of said item... |
The best thing about diablo is that its a 4 player game with a AH, if this was a mmo, i would be quite upset and disappointed.
As long as everyone can see that its not worth buying the gold that the botters are selling for w/e 1m/$40, things wont become so heavily inflated. The game is designed to be grindy to the fuckhouse late game, those choosing to take the easy out and trying to rush everything as quickly as possible, just end up spoiling it faster for themselves. By rushing, i mean buying gold or setting up farms for themselves. My approach is just farm like crazy, sell the yellows for like 10-20k gold for everything beyond level 45 as they will sell faster, at the same time making it affordable for other players. And for the most part, just play with your good friends and play different classes so if you or them find good items that one of your mates can use, just pass it on. |

For those thinking I'm spoiling it for myself, I botted WoW for 3 years+ and ejoyed every minute of it. For a while I enjoyed botting more than actually playing, it's quite the challenge to try to improve your gold/hr etc. :)

plus it means more time to spend with real world things like HAVING A LIFE. whinging about it is moot, even if every westerner DIDN'T bot, it would still be rife just with chinese bot farms. so why not cash in if blizzard are happy to? |
