Botting and boosting in sod

We got rid of GDKP, a known source of gold laundering, some innocent people suffered because of the negative actions of many, but it was necesary. Now how about we touch base on the next issue. Bots, boosts, and the impact of RMTs on this aspect. Make it a bannable offense to sell boosts next. People are going to hate me for saying it but here me out. One mage bot account can solo a stockades run easily up to 5 times an hour. One boost sells for a minimum of 2 to 5g up to 15g. Thats a profit of 10 to 75g depending on the selling price. Gold buyers buy gold from botters. They then spend this gold on dungeon boosts, paying monet back into the botter running the boost. This money then gets sold to other gold buyers and rinse amd repeat. It is essentially a self sustaining gold buyer/seller relationship. Everyone will say, well the problem is is that people still buy gold, or talk about how boosting has no inpact on this at all which simply is not true. Both buyers and sellers of gold should be banned. Dungeon boosts are the new GDKP gold laundering system. Even streamers have been seen being boosted by fly hacking bots in actual irrefutable video proof. This stems from the fact that youve made classes overpowered that can solo content that shouldnt be soloable. Youve made a buggy product that utilizes glitches and pathing errors to reset trash and avoid dying. You want us as players to build communities to clear content, when most players would rather just buy their way to the top, or solo places to maximize their own profit of either xp, gold, or whatever the resource they are searching for is. And its not just boosting dungeons either, its also paying gold for quest completions. 15g for a full sleeping bag questline including summons to queat givers and turn ins. When people would rather pay money to achieve a goal, rather than actually take time to do the content themselves, or find a group to do the content with, it points out the simple fact that your content is not enjoyable or has no replayability or longevity.

Boosting is fine. Why ban them? If you jealous, level your own mage or hunter
Just stop being jealous and grow up

GDKP is fine. Why ban them? If you jealous, just swipe your credit card.

He edited his post real quick, but you quoted him first. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Lol still jealous? Get over with it

Bots are running rampant in the Hinterlands, with 3+ on every layer at all times. Its been this way for over a week. Mageweave, Wildvine, Silk Cloth, all tanked in price and ruined the farm for any real players. Can you all not spare 1 person to sit out there and ban these bots?

Wall of text crits everyone for 1.2m mega damage.

What is with these sock puppets making walls of text as if they think anyone will actually read anything passed the first sentence.

Skill issue, git gud
