A Question which interessted me now for Long is: Are there any botters in Wormhole space, who either run Sleeper sites (mainly in Class 2 and 3 Wormholes) or mining?

I had once the suspect of bot acctivity when I entered a C2 wormhole with 50+ sites and a pos with only a control Tower and ship maintenance Array and nothing else in it. On D-scan, there was noting but some poses and I was the only one in that wormhole.

I once wanted to hunt botters in W-space with a recon, as they can no longer seen on D-scan and the Local watch bot doesn't work in W-space, as the local is delayed, so the bots won't warp to theyr pos when someone enters the wormhole in a cloaked or a recon ship.

i'm REALY miss the old stuff.

Almost every time you think you've seen a bot, you're wrong. But report them anyway if you legitimately feel they are botting.

If someone was truly botting in there (or even farming "manually") you wouldn't see 50 sites in there - you would see none. (many sites in a system means that no one clears them out)

I doubt there are people botting w-space sites.
There is a lot more to farming in w-space than just "if local clear warp to anom and shoot stuff else warp to POS".
I've run across multiboxers in w-space - but not ever someone I suspected to be a bot.
