On the topic of player botting, I am disappointed

[Mondora]

Dear Nostalrius staff,

As a loyal player of this server and community since its first beginning I must admit that with the recent news that have come to my doorstep, I feel truly DISAPPOINTED and foremost DISGUSTED by the management and administration of this project. There seems to be no limit of how low you all are willing to sink, even if you must confuse and make your players as a whole, insignificant.

My anger, hate and frustration is indescribable at this moment. You have absolutely crossed a line with detestable propaganda and aggressive lies for promotion of this project. At first I felt proud and optimistic, even intimate about being part of a large vanilla community as I was dismayed to witness it existed at all. But clearly, I was wrong, and now I am remorseful about my stay here at Nostalrius.

The avoidance of truth in what this project has stood behind, is humiliating to any soul that has ever entered your project.

...demonstrates the broad usage of in-game player bots on Nostalrius WOW. I had my suspicion from the beginning, that all these weird, non-responsive and non-interactive players I met online were of a shady sort. And I was right. The MAJORITY of the population turns out to be EXACTLY like it. Are you being serious to me right now?

Needless to say, I and many other victimized players feel mad and distant with this 'fakeness' and lies. I am deeply disappointed in the staff and management approach to fake in-game population and with that disturb and lower the quality of the overall gaming provided here at Nostalrius.

This must absolutely not happen, for us long-term and hard dedicated players and gamers, it does absolutely nothing but ruin it all. It ruins the full atmosphere.

Will you wake up, and stop this nonsense infidelity against your REAL players?

Back on retail, I used to play with that kind of people. They wouldn't say a word, no "random movement" when travelling or stuff, and they were all real.

Not gonna go through all the videos, but someone walking auto-walking (num lock) on long distances doesn't bother me, I do it all the time.
I usually also don't reply to someone just whispering "hey" until there's something after it. And if I'm not interested I won't reply either.

So most of what I've seen on video 1 looks just a guy playing like me... I might be bothered to ask wtf a guy is doing if he's following me for 20 minutes, but if he doesn't do anything I won't care at all.


Edit: And all the characters I came across seemed very normal to me.


Cheers

I can definitely entertain the idea that these characters are bots however i don't see any proof that these are Nostalrius' bots instead of just some random person's.

TL;DR
Linking video by the guy who made this http://zzuks.blogspot.ch/2015/03/c-1121 ... -code.html and complaining about bots? You must be crazy to believe it. Or a kronos fanboy, which is even worse.

Nice try Zzuk now go fuck yourself and get a life. Please IP ban this guy from the server...

OP is a troll.


Witnessed a couple blatant botting happening today, filed a ticket and less than 5 minutes later the GM replied and dealt with it.

You can tell how good the server is simply by looking at the trolls trying to tarnish it. OP, please DIAF.

Can I have your tinfoil hat?

[Fogtripper]

Basically I watched a video of you harassing another player. Well done.

I didnt post that. I dont discuss in forums with closeminded people - I just make videos
