Yeeeehaw! Now i've got something to do when I get home from work!

*Planning out new Mo/R build with vital blessing and symbiosis*

Thanks for the tips on how to get them to join your party, since body blocking doesn't work in towns.

We've all got to work together though, since by my rough count it's:

Concerned citizens: 6
Shameless bots: 1,000,012

I don't think Anet cares about bots, else all of China would be banned.

huh Im a monk and most of the time I dont chat with team mates...... I hate chitty chat

I believe there are already bots who actually are trying to uphold the illusion of conversation. Either that, or these players are extremely nerdy. I have done missions where one player constantly spams information about himself, like:
I am lvl 16 and I am 65% bla bla bla.
I am wielding a blah bla and a blah.
My health is blah of blah.
And when they die, they keep on asking to resurect them, even when there are about 10 agressors standing on top of his body. Or, in the middle of a tough fight they suddenly ask "So, where is everybody from?"
Suffice to say, that I am not called "Silent Kitty" for my fondness of idle chit chat when on a mission

I just love to screw with bots. Got some nice max rares + more max mods than I have a use for

+ of course the oh sooo lovable xp + leveling

This is my new daily addiction. There are some really sucky bots though

This reminds me of a time when a team I was in was in Hell's and anyways, these two monks with these Chinese'ish names joined out party, ok just thinking they're since they're all monkish, they wanna sound chinese'ish

They never said anything, barely healed, and when someone would die they would instantly try to ress them rather then continuing to heal the party, and be all "I am ressurecting JAJAJAJAJA" and such.

That makes me sad. :'(

Me too. I think it is sad they (botters) are changing a nongrind game into a botfest.

My policy is: If you want a good character you should work for it.

I just went to look, one added me, walked outside and started farming :s me with a damage build got killed then they went on and farmed

I have a theory - anti farm code doesnt kick in when theres 2 people?

edit: talus chute this is

I used to do this in Augury. They were usually all real people though. I would go outside and they would notice me in their party and leave.

I think maybe they use sorta "partial bots". Maybe they use the bots to do basic stuff so they dont get carpal tunnel. lol. And then they sit and watch for a while. I joined one and he asked me where I was from and I said usa, so he then promptly left lol. Another time the farmer told me to pick up the loot that dropped for me while I followed him. (told me by drawing on map and saying "go".) He even waited for me to get it before he went on to next group.
Usually when I would get outside with one, they would tell me to "go" before they would move. I assume so I would die and not get their drops. If i didnt move they would leave. But that all got boring real fast and I felt kinda bad about stealing loot. Many seemed to think I was chinese until I told them I wasnt.

I tried to get some to join me, but I could only get 1 out of 30 to accept.

i want to mess with them too!
