What are they farming now that tress are gone?

BH
everything most likely.

the trees made no difference last time we had a influx of bots, as they increase level they just spread across all areas of the server, Bichon prov, serpent valley / dungeons etc. They have never been confined to just harvesting tree's.

Botters in SV have always just done snakes for gold and items chestnuts were never the target in sv from what ive seen.

As for gucci, its not the original i leveld the original to 31 when he sold the character to the current gucci for £££.
I still speak with the original and unfortunately hes refusing to reclaim the accout and rinse the current one. I guess he has more morals than me towards cash buyers.
Saying that the current gucci is not as big a fool as he was a few weeks back and seems to have got away from the mir ego most warriors suffer.

Yep Warrior Bots in SerpentValley with silly nicks... 22+ try to get even my left pots or gold * and formyself i feel they hit faster then usally...

Trackdown *who they enrich ~ and ban the real ones behind them. i am sure its possible to track the real users or IPs.

They issue is they keep changing IPs once they are banned.
I have even hardware banned them and they still get around that.

We are looking into auto kicking them but that may also auto kick players and we do not want that.

The only other thing I can think of is to stop gold from dropping from low level monsters (the bots do not seem to collect items)

Would make little difference, the bots would be then just be setup to pickup / sell items with little effort.

IP range bans?

If someone can legimitately no longer access the server after an IP range ban re-enable their (smaller) range and if you see bots reappearing.. well, you know who the culprit is.

Couldn't you just have an NPC that gives 'non tradable non sellable, drop on death' 'packs'
-still have quest items but

Basically you hit Level level 16: you gain certain gear
Level 22 : arm and new wep or whatever
up to 25.

Then with the low end mobs just reduce all the items gold worth down to pence?

as no one I know goes to farm SV for cash other than bots

Easy fix.
Any character under level 25 can only do transactions with stabdard shop keepers.
Cannot trade, cannot use TM and cannot drop gold.

This will lower the amount of bots but of course they will just level to 25... Does give you 25levels to catch them and "trace" who may have power leveled them.

If you fid go down this route you would need to increase storage as many of us use mules.

That might actually work, because they can still pick up items or gold (for instance new players receiving item donations from helpful higher levels to make the early levels easier).

And yeah, they could just unlock 1 extra storage tab for free (or 2, and add 1 or 2 more for pay).

You can even bump this up to 30.. very few bots would be willing to level chars to 25/30 just to sell the paltry gold they've made, it's too much of a hassle.

Fair play, well couldn't you scrap the junk man and just have a 'repair man'

As yeah people will need to move to shops to sell their stuff but sure it would be harder to set up a bot to sell appropriate items to the correct places?
Or put a level cap or 28/30 on the junk man to be able to use him....idk really >.<

you could make sv items that drop from the mobs sell for only 1 gold, and make the gold dropped 1 also.

That'd effectively make SV pointless for them to bot.

I think it would be very difficult to make a Map drop the same items another map can (so for example an iron brace) that is only worth 1gold and the other map worth 150g etc. without making a whole new set of items just for SV, i cant see that working.. But keep brainstorming, im sure you guys will come up with something.
