Bots? What's that? and what does "shou" mean?
I'm going to try farming there, I'll report back.

"Bots" are automated programs that farm the griffons for them. They only have to sit there and watch over computers. I don't know "shou."

Thanks for the link. A Chinese guy says "shou" is not a Chinese word, so these might be Koreans. It does seem they are trading, so Augury Int 1 might be a marketplace.
I tried farming alone and got my ass handed to me by minotaurs. I remember that place, its where I had to kill the gold minotaur to change my second prof.
Either they or going out with hench or bots, as you say. I still don't understand how you would make a farming bot.

sorry for the stupid questions, but what the hell is a "scripted batch"?
You mean these guys use programming code to make farming robots?

In essence, Yes. Plain and simple.
They run backround programs that program key movement, usage, skills and whatnot in a "Batch file" and then execute it, just sitting at the screen making sure nothing goes wrong when they farm. IE: Bots. Short for Robots. Automated programs. You get the idea.

well as i understand mandarin(chinese), i can tell u a few things on wat happen there,
that place is like a market for chinese players, (most of them is chinese, not many koreans). and i do believe some of them are farming bots, but most of them are just buying and selling gold items.
i think "shou" is "selling"
- edit -
btw, there is many rude player in that zone too, spamming "f**k ur mom" in chinese.

It's not just there, if you visit Ascalon or LA international some Chinese guys will go up to you with 7 unids and after you close trade window he'll go "gan ni ma da" like a gazillion times.
I got to be good friends with some of them too, but they haven't been online since the aoe patch (and the reason is pretty obvious).

The bots auto get the items, The Guys that hit you with the unids are working the items, I have spoken to a few who say "my boss will kill me if I sell to low". The gold made is then sold on websites for real cash. 1 million gold makes about 150 dollors £75 100 euros.
Its a buisness for the far east countries who pay a guy 1 dollor an hour to stay online selling the items

This thread has me dying...
Everyone is discussing these guys like they're some sort of rare breed of giraffe on Animal Planet...
"Observe the Asian in his natural habitat... here he is conversing in his native tongue... 'Asian'... he's probably being paid 1 dollar in some labor camp in the 'Far East' to farm for his slavemaster boss".
As a person who lives in Asia I can assure you people aren't playing computer games in concentration camps... and "Asian" is not a language.
They go to Int districts to sell to expand their market to the other servers. Simple.

Well said.
I visit Augury INT for getting weapon upgrades of ALL kinds cheap AND ( more important) quickly, without any long bargaining or getting called "roflwtfffs nooboffer" from some greedy player.
