LOL. Bots have to be programmed to do things, not to avoid doing things. Else I might have to download one myself and comment sections such as "do not clean my house!".

It could be a "sell feature" of the bot programming, because it's common that people group with others to find them easier when they're trading. Step outside, and the farming part takes over. Bots are also rarely left entirely unattended. If he notices your invite before the bot walks him out of the city, the "master" might just be thinking either "I'm bored as hell, and I'm payed by the hour, why not?" or "I might actually make more in the end, when he pays me for levelling him!" as well.

I actually heard about how the chinese farmers would sometimes accept you if you invited yourself, so I did. He never talked, but I just followed him around, and one time I stopped to try and solo a boss and he actually drew on the radar for me to follow him. I thought that was nice so I tried to leave him alone afterward.

Good job on griefing. Pathetic.

Also do you people even know what bots are? If there's someone there to accept your invite then he's not a bot. He may be a farmer yes but not a bot. Get it straight.

Of course not. He'd be using a bot. Get it straight.

A bot will just make the character do something automatically, without a person doing it himself. God isn't preventing bots from accepting invites. There's also usually a person monitoring the bots as they do their thing, making sure they don't get stuck and whatnot. As in, intervene. And it's not impossible that someone using a bot might intervene and accept the invite of someone else.

That is my point. How would you be able to tell a legitimate farmer from a so called bot user? You can't tell for sure. That's why I have a problem with these griefers...especially if the so called bot is willing to take invites.

I don't get this thread, is there something to be proud of? Some farmer accepts your invitation thinking you might need help to powerlevel and there you go backstabbing the person..really nice of you..

a while ago I tried inviting the Droks Int bots........one out of every 20 or so I got accepted, then I'd go outside, and maybe 1/2 or 1/3 of those would actually start farming. And every single one of those turned out to be people, not bots.

They'd say something in horrible english, or open up trade window wanting gold, or drawing on screen........

while there probably are a lot of bots here, I don't think they accept invites, at least not any of the several hundred i tried adding

If you really wanna hurt 55monks, I suggest you targeting those in TOA, who leave their teamates to die in UW while they go do their farming.

that reminds me pre-griffin farming i was saving up my money so i got on on my 55 and farmed the griffs, and i see an advert, "lf a power leveller!!"

i msg the person and say, 300g per level but i get all the drops, is that fine by you?

they agree and i take them. I start off fine and then i get into the mobs and start grouping them, then all of a sudden i have negative energy regen....

as i look in horror and see natures renewal staring me in the face......

i scream, "GET RID OF IT!!! quick! ahhh!!! you're gonna kill me!!!"

in this chaos i kill about half of them and level her, then i die...

i then said, okay dont bring that, it kills me, she said okay, and then we went out again.

then i had killed one mob and then went into another and i see in the corner of the screen.... natures renewal..... "Ahhh wtf are you doing!!! get it off get it off!!!!" i level her again.... at the res pad i said, okay look i cant level you if you dont listen, may i please have my 600g.

"...LOL"
********** has left the game.


i messaged them and never got a reply, and to this day, i have vowed to never ever take a power leveller with me again......



anyways, its not a nice thing to do, it made me feel bad, and wasted my time, plus the chinese farmers bosses are aparently very strict and i think they get yelled at for stuff like that.
