Bot wars ending

[Liminality]

Yes it's one of the reasons action was taken against maury.

Thanks for the info. I'm sure the people that actually bought NASA are raging right now, but they'll either quit or just find another bot.

Most converted to Wizbot, which is going to be basically another FFXIApp. This seems a little convenient given the circumstances, but I'm not really one for conspiracy theories.

Really is no drama here. Thousands of people lost their precious bot. They'll either quit, or buy a new one. Most just can't imagine playing the game w/o one cause they've used them for so long.

Those that never botted may laugh @ those which lost them, should be apparent at all the LOLsomethingsomething I've been seeing, but it will still continue.

It's like a fad. FFXIApp was the cool/popular bot for FFXI, but now it's lost style/taste. Time to find a new fad(bot).

I don't know why anyone replies to ringthree, he's been annoying ever since the wopa thing, probably before but i rarely BG'd back then.

I need to go back in this thread and read that first screen shot posted, it was taken from his forums I think. I thought I saw something in there about him doing paypal refunds to his customers.

Edit: I see now, 30 day refund offered.

Hmmm I guess Nimbusyosh was more popular than I had previously imagined.

There's a little Nimbusyosh in all of us.

Especially d44kpunk's mother.


And, my USUAL response to this is some moral fag crusade tie-raid about how the mother of botters should have raised them better, but I've been saying this for what...... 4 years now?

It's not their fault really. I blame bad parenting and S for enabling this type of behavior. SE especially for having a game system where bot claiming produces the most RETARDED of dickholes.

(Metaphor time)

I'm a normal law abiding citizen watching his neighborhood go to shyt. For 4 years I've been going after the crack heads, who through government fuck ups, now have better houses and roll with AK-47's.

The problem isn't the crack heads, or even the crack dealers, or even so-jah boi making crappy casio music, the problem is the bullshyt government that only arrest SOME of the drug dealers when they can do SOOOOO much more.

So, why argue with crack heads when all they want to do i suck dick and smoke crack( Or in d44kpunk's case, smoke crack and suck a LOT of dick.) when i'm perfectly happy with my community action group that doesn't have to suck anyone's peni and can beat the asses of whatever steps to us.... gold plated AK's and all.

So a couple crack dealers are going out of business.... ok... as long as there's suckers of penis for the crack that is RMT, 3 more will pop up.

The fix will come if SE enables a system that gets you even more potent crack without w8ing 22-29 hours for one mob that MIGHT drop that super rock.

But, that's happen when d44kpunk finds a penis he doesn't find to be a tasty treat.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a shell to run.

I'm glad you agree

Especially about the penis part.

Yea, if people had bought his bots within the past 30-days, Maury was offering a refund to his customers. Those over the month period won't be receiving refunds, though.

Apparently so many people have converted to Wizbot, that there server has been crashing from the load. I checked the forums and something like 500 people had logged into their forums today alone. So, I would say that botting will only be missed for the next couple of days, but will see the upcomings of them again in about 5-7 days back in full swing.

The whole reason FFXIApp was shutdown was not cause of FFXIApp, but cause of NASA. Since NASA was editing/reading the packets sent cross-server, this is considered hacking by the ToS. That is... if that is indeed what truly happened. Therefore, they probably reached an agreement that Maury shutdown his entire operation, which included FFXIApp. Though why SE would choose to just now go after NASA is beyond even me.

I'll even admit to buying/using FFXIApp and I've used NASA before. NASA wasn't as impressive as I thought it'd be, but it did have a slight advantage, with the use of packets. Not trying to say botting is right/wrong, but it made me giddy to see a former NASA LS start to crumble w/o the bot. Guess I've been a bad, bad Taruwaru...

SE can be slow, but going through legal channels for anything can be even slower at times, try getting into an accident and try suing said person who say ran a red light into you causing said accident..it could take years to even get your case heard sometimes.

So whether they were slow or not, there's also the possibility if it was through legal channels it just took awhile for it to go through.

The most important thing I've learned from this thread is that you can have 2 DM earrings.

Can you do the same thing with CoP rings?

Seems like it would be possible, since they aren't the same item and you did technically toss it :D

Drop Rajas/Suppa.
GM restore.
Get Sattva/Abyssal.
???
Profit?

[Madalynn]

Laughing at what? People losing $15 from App, (which is nothing considering it amounts to about 1months worth of subscription) when the next day people will just go out and buy a new bot the next day because it makes a game that is mundane and tedious and inconvienent just that little bit more tolerable.

My stance on this whole thing aside, this is something I don't quite understand.

If a game is mundane, tedious, and inconvienent, wouldn't it just be better to go do something more worthwhile and fun instead of spending extra money (however small or large the amount may be) to make it more tolerable?

You'd want to get your new items before using the restore, and it's only for 1 item ever.

People have dropped multiple things with the introduction of FoV and have had all the items replaced, so I don't see why it wouldn't work in this case.

App could do more than just claim lolground kings. A lot of the tools on App helped cut out the timesink part of the game, for example you want to ENM at Ule Range, but don't want to spend 30minutes climbing the mountain, can GMtool up the cliff get keyitem and be done within 5minutes and do the ENM which is fun. Or load up the maproute tool or whatever it's called, tell it to take you somewhere and you can afk whilst heading to the place you need to be. My point being a lot of the mundane crap in this game are prerequisites for the fun stuff in the game and App helped make them more tolerable. I'm sure the new bots will replace most of the functions that App had.

Unless by doing something more worthwhile and fun you meant not playing FFXI then you're right.

[Sev]

So many free servers atm only like 9 with some for of packet bot (minus a few of the home grown ones)

[Not Kuno]

Don't advertise bots.
