GGG does ban bots :D
" Guy was "playing" (if you could call it that) from work. Nice double-whammy if he also gets caught and fired. Sounds the type who has never bought a single supporter pack, yet makes out like he and his ilk are the life-blood of the game. Also doesn't sound the type to actually enjoy playing, so I surmise his motives are more, shall we say, profit-oriented?

He does have a bit of a point, to be fair. Without RMT, PoE's economy would be unsustainable.
No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.

" Ditto. Would make finding an exalt actually mean something, hopefully. Not the, "Oh, 3-20% towards nice upgrade" BS we get now. No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.

hoho NASA like. must fly rockets to the moon.
i read it twice :) I need more purple titles

Not much of a point to this thread but i like how it has a proper tl;dr even though you could have started with that.
Its been clear from the beginning of time that GGG bans botters. |

Give me twenty minutes and I will write something up that sounds more believable, but would be just as fictional. ;)
But botting isn't the issue anyway. It's regular players who engage in RMT (both ways), and those seem to be getting away. Instead of more concerted action against this, a whole lot of design decisions since release seem all aimed at fostering and nurturing that aspect of the game, and I honestly don't understand it. | |
" A lot of it only makes sense if I want to go all tin-foily. I don't, so I just remain baffled. Blue pill for me. No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.

" Yeah, people get predictably pissy when you take away their income. :P I mean, it's illegitimate income, but it was still part of his income. Good riddance. Good read. | |
" Yeah, but that also doesn't really make sense to me. It can't be profitable enough to justify the risk of discovery. Maybe it really is just lack of ... I don't know, foresight? Or perhaps they don't care and feel that they should not have to design around it. But that would boil down to lack of foresight again, I feel. Anyway, you're right, it's probably pointless to think too much about it. |
