Started a new alt on Wednesday evening and have just completed my 6th entire zone without seeing one Bot train. Did Anet managed to wipe the Bots in one swat? Even better I haven't seen a gold seller in chat or received any mail spam during the same period. Big Kudos to Anet if they managed to do in two months what couldn't be done in WoW for 5+ years

All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.
I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.
I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.
I don't hate much, but I hate Apple© with a passion. If Steve Jobs was alive, I would punch him in the face.
yep they implemented a code for detecting those apps apparently. I've noticed all the trains that got reported and then return a day later are completely gone now, never see them posting gold selling crap in LA anymore.
Amazing and they did it ALL withOUT a single authenticator to take more of your money. hmmm
about botting i don't know
but about gold selling. I honestly think the fact you can buy gems > trade for gold is a MAJOR factor in this. I know we saw allot of advertising in chat the first couple of weeks, but maybe they found out the profit wasn't what they hoped it would be.
Many people won't risk getting bannend of hacked for 1 extra euro, so they'll buy gold via Anet legally. Who knows maybe Anet really did do something UBER, but i think tradingpost gets the most credit
lol he thinks authenticators have to do with bots.
Nope. No bots in Spark Fly Fen, Malchor's Leap or Cursed Shore. Those have always been the heaviest on my server.
so what you are saying is that bots aren't run on stolen accounts?

Kinda funny how the bots all vanished around the same time the complaints over account suspensions and bans increased on the forums xD
Would an actually player have a name like "jo9h9j78"

They create new characters when they hack accounts, if you right click on bots 99% of the time they have normal account names.
i used to get emails from gold sellers everyday but for the past few weeks i havent received one
Have fun storming the castle! - Miracle Max
The bots come out at niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
So you're saying the account hacks (no authenticators) didn't happen?
*Gasps* really? Wow didn't think about that.
I might get banned for this. - Rizel Star.
I'm not afraid to tell trolls what they [need] to hear, even if that means for me to have an forced absence afterwards.

LOL. get a clue. stopping in game bots doesn't stop hacked accounts.
He has a solid "clue". As he said, the bots run from stolen accounts. Authenticators help eliminate stolen accounts. Less stolen accounts, less bots. /shrug
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Anet viral marketers at work again.
By the way i just saw a train of warrior bots in frostforge.
