That's a bad thing?

More meat for the meat-eaters I say.

In reality this should see more experienced players return.My alliance is seeing people who gave up PvP come back from the title grind.I think your grossly over-exaggerating the negatives here.

I can exaggerate all I want, it's called free-will. Im not telling anyone to swallow what I have to say, I just said it. This community has a nack for "omg, you said something I dont agree with, LETS MAKE FUN OF JOO!"

Dont feed me psychology BS, I've been around for 5 years, I.KNOW.YOU.PEOPLE (in the non-creepy way).The people who cry wolf are just as bad as the people who ate the sheep.

...fireflyry politely disagreed with you. Even with added "I THINK" before his opinion. He didn't even use caps or inflammatory word choices. Yet there you go jumping down his throat.

Yeah, pretty easy to see which one is the better conversant here.

Have you actually been banned or are your trolling again?

no offense man, but your posts get less and less intelligent every time, save yourself the shame of looking a fool, accept that you lost it all, don't give the "the botters will return" warning, and cope, its time to let go... breath... there, now go outside and enjoy a day without pixels

thats right, we will stand ever vigilant against Bot Zombies...

This is a very valid legal complaint. The time ,effort ,and money ( buying perks from NCSOFT), gives you the cause.
And you sign that all away with the EULA.

NCSoft doesn't have to do shit, when you play an MMO you sign away your rights, and agree to either play things the exact way they want things to be played, or have the chance of losing EVERYTHING to them. Honestly, they won't even have to bring up evidence, and your case will probably never reach court. They will just need to point out to the Judge that when you first purchased the game, all you purchased was the right to play in it, and everything you did in the game actually belongs to ANet. And if they believe you broke their rules, then thats all they need to take away all your goodies, because you are in effect borrowing said goodies, even goodies you bought, then it legally counts as paying a friend to borrow his stuff/renting.

Sorry if I seem a bit harsh, but either you are innocent, and will get your stuff back when YOU prove it, or your trying to garner support for your lying ass because you got banned for cheating, and don't want people to know. Judging by the fact ANet can almost certainly check records, can check conversations, and can check all sorts of other things, and your friends can't see you 24/7, and well, I'm more inclined to believe ANet, especially as this wasn't a largescale shotgun nerf like in the past, but was targeting individuals they WATCHED bot, or they watched for a period of time.

Most of the people here suck just as much as the GM's of Ncsoft.
They think you have been banned you must have done something.
Can only hope the same happens to all that think that way.
Only good thing of this ban that i stopped playing games and have more social life again.
In the end is evry second you spend playing wasted

What does it matter? I know people who got banned and I know people who didn't. Some of the people who didn't get banned are more upset with the ban than the people who got banned. People who get banned are likely to either get their account back or quit. Meanwhile the people who didn't get banned are losing guildies and friends from the past 5 years possibly because of a trivial and non-existent offence.

That's right, people that botted actually cared about the game and played with other people. All you haters are going to hate but I know people who got banned, and they were the type of players keeping GW PvE alive. Meanwhile, the friend who lives across the country who I don't have an excuse to communicate with but we get on a play guild wars sometimes in the evenings, that's gone, because why? he used a drunkard bot or something. Makes the people who played the game because of the community, want to stop.

I know it's a surprise to all you people who live on the internet, but there is no black and white issue. People botting, macroing, w/e, need to be judged on the severity of their actions, and none of the PvE bots, at least, is equivalent to killing people. It might be equivalent to going too fast on the freeway because they wanted to get to GWAMM as fast as possible. What do you get? A ticket or a warning. Do you get the death penalty. According to the "people who don't bot," yes you do.

Honestly, some of the people who don't bot, it seems now that their sole reason for not botting was so they could laugh in the face of those who do. That seems really ethical. NOT. GG on superiority complex.

I didn't bot, not out of any sense of moral superiority but because I didn't want to risk a ban. I used to bot all the time on Mafia Wars because I could care less if I got banned on that stupid game. I don't think the botters are bad people, just kind of dumb. They knew they were taking a significant risk by doing so.

All in all, I just want ANET to make it very clear to the rest of us remaining players EXACTLY what types of behavior will illicit a ban. As I have mentioned in another thread, a lot of us are essentially cheating in some EOTN missions by flagging heroes across the map to avoid mob spawns. That is in fact cheating and I would hope I don't get a PERMANENT BAN for doing so.

Also, there is that EOTN mission, "Service: Practice, Dummy" where you can type /resign at the beginning of the mission and it counts as complete (the one where you get the Ebon Assassin skill). I hope I don't get a PERMANENT BAN for doing that either.

I'm also curious why people who exploited the bug in the Zos Shivros Channel mission (to max out Luxon titles while being AFK) didn't get permanently banned either. That seems no different than a bot in terms of "playing the game while not being at your keyboard".

The milk was good while you were able to play, but now that you are banned the milk has gone sour.

And every second you spend replying to this thread validates you as a person... methinks that by getting a bit wounded in the buttocks and posting it here, that social life might need REAL people. sorry man, but if you got banned, you did something wrong, unless all these banned people were just innocent victims...

Look, if you botted or otherwise violated the EULA, you DID do something wrong and we have no reason to feel sorry for you.

If you are honestly innocent, have never botted or otherwise violated the EULA in an instant perma-ban kind of way, and yet you coped a ban... then you really need to talk to the NCsoft support people and explain the mistake (remaining calm and polite will go a long way here)... no amount of forum sympathy is going to return your account to you.

If you just botted that one time, only for a little bit, a long time ago... then I don't care about how unfair you think your ban is.
