Discussion: Botting Risks, Tips and Deletions

[Jesseh]

who knows, feels like it sometimes with the delets going on.

If that's really the case it doesn't matter to stop right now, sooner or later the ban may come for already botted chars =D

Anyway, I prefer to play it safe (botting), no MC's, using authenticator, using randomized waypoints, hunting almost similar to a human and hoping for the best, unless we discover if there is any special unknown check.

...or CIP really got a new special client check,previously undetected by bot makers/programmers that simply detect if you have windbot/other bots running and it's all over for a while for botters.

If they have such a check the question is: why they dont delete every botter. It seems that they can find a bot easily, but they don't want to delete to much at a time (Which doesnt make sense. If they dont want to delete people that bot only main characters for fun and pay for a PACC, they shouldn't delete them at that peace.). It also seems that they are ruthless against farms if they detect one they delete all associated accounts. Also it seems that they delete only online players. Saving information about waypoints heat map or actions performed is quite expensive, there are 13k to 17k players online, saving these information for all of them in small interval would generate huge dataset.

Bottom line they can detected a bot and it hard to find a pattern.

Maybe they are just choosing which ones to delete now, already knowing everyone who bots, but there are monetary reasons to not delete everyone at a time. About the heat map, I believe it isn't that expensive, it takes a few minutes/hours to detect someone botting via patterns, they don't have to do it permanently, just turn on the analyser software and gather the info for later use. CIP CM (Craban I think) already told in twitter they gather data from players. That's the option I want to believe since it's more possible to avoid a delete.

Otherwise, if there is an automatic detection of other sort of method we don't know yet then we're screwed by now. What time CEST you got deleted on your training/non-waypoint bot char?

What time CEST you got deleted on your training/non-waypoint bot char?

You mean how many hours training? Something around 5 hours.

Thank you for your request.

An automatic check of your account has shown that unofficial software was used on it to play Tibia. We have reviewed the deletion carefully, but I am sorry to say we have found it was justified. I am afraid we are not prepared to revoke it. Please understand that we cannot accept any further complaints against the deletion. Moreover, please note that we cannot give you any further details concerning the check procedure. However, rest assured that the deletion of your account was not based exclusively on reports by other players.

If you would like to go on playing Tibia, please create a new account and start over. However, if you do so we strongly recommend you make sure to study the Tibia Rules at
http://www.tibia.com/support/?subtopic=tibiarules
carefully and make sure not to violate them again. If you follow them at all times, you may be sure not to lose your new Tibia account again.
