So bot miners.. I know of one.

I know of a bot miner and his accounts. I only reported the two I remembered out of the 3 I knew of.

I just want to somehow confirm to CCP that they were bots since I was a newbie when we encountered him. I have wittnesses, and my (acts of piracy that amuse me) award was because I was robbing his cans. Eventually it became a corp activity to fly out there and can flip into a hauler with a cheap fast ship to go yellow in.

He would continue to fill the cans for quite some time while we sat around and robbed him, as for his orca I killed I don't think that's on any killboards as it was my fourth or fifth kill ever and I can't seem to find it except in my personal logs, but that was just yellow 50km off a belt. He would go yellow in a freighter too but we never were around for that.

I never reported the guy back then and I don't know if he still logs on. If CCP bans him, that's good. If they somehow find it as false because he hasn't logged on in a while or something I can provide proof, and people who aren't my alts as I own non to recount the story, my old corp leader if he even plays anymore who gave me that award can tell it. Just reporting bots is taking a risk I would think.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

So why exactly are you bringing this to the General Drama forum area?

Would you like a cookie? We're all out of cake and popcorn for some reason.

Umm, OK. I would say cool story bro, but its not that cool.

Why did you feel the need to post this? Do you want a cookie or did you just need some attention?

I just don't want to get accidentally banned, because I don't know if the guy has logged on for months and months after I left that area.


As for the previous post.

I hadn't reported the guy "before". But now there is a bot report button, so I used it today to report him.

You should have reported the mining bot to CODE. Probably would have gotten a more satisfying response.

just gank him youself....worst can possibly happen is that you get dec'd by its overlord protectors or something.

Because maybe either CODE is to busy, and/or CCP pretty much doesnt respond the way you would expect even when you provided Fraps and stopwatch timing results.

So best just to gank a confirmed botter yourself till he gets the point and hopefully moves on to somewhere else.

You gotta remember bro, code doesn't kill bots.
They kill pods, ventures, untanked barges and empty freighters, because, you know, that's what really teaches those botters a lesson.

ib4l for posting about bans or soemthing...

But 1) why would you get banned? CCP will look into it, if they deem the guy was botting actions will be taken, if the y deems hes not botting, then they move on. If you keep reporting they might flag you for abuse of the system or something.

2) CCP will NOT inform you of the actions they took against said botter.

3) Posting here is a waste of time as we are not CCP employees and read #2.

The end.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!
