Bot Players - Allowed or Bannable?

CrazyEddie · 2019-01-02 01:24:24

This player Ella Moist http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … id=2639767 was either a bot or was being incredibly patient and persistent in pretending to be a bot.

She had a handful of stock phrases and a handful of programmatic behaviors. She would walk around with a pie and say "I made you a pie" "pie pie pie" "I wonder what flavor it is" - these phrases were repeated over and over. She would pick up carts, regardless of what was in them, and then not do anything with them. She would pick up a knife and say, repeatedly, "I want to die" while pursuing people.

I saw no evidence that there was a human at the controls, and considerable evidence that it was a bot.

Jason - are you okay with that?

In the meantime, I encourage everyone to "CURSE ELLA MOIST" as soon as you have a token free. Even if Jason is okay with bots, we the players should send them to Donkey Town immediately and permanently.

Beside the general annoyance of repeating stock phrases, and the economic drain of eating food while doing nothing productive, the bot also was opportunistically meddlesome. She picks up items (such as carts) while you are using them, and will apparently attempt to kill people when a knife is available.

Please curse Ella Moist.

creepy! If I met a person like that I would ask them to stop and do their job, and if they don't listen I'll just tell people around town that they're a griefer that's only eating food and not doing anything. Then stab 'em.

I think Jason said bot's are okay just don't use more than one, but It was a bit long ago and to a specific guy so idk. There also was an idiot on forum making threads about bots to get out of donkey town - he got banned from forums but I think that's because he was rude to everyone.

You can cycle through what you have previously said by pressing up when you open the chat box, repeating phrases. So i wouldn't necessarily say she is a bot because of the behaviour.
Also useful for running around town asking for certain tools.
Other chat things are you can use one hand to chat and still move around so if you are good with typing you could almost communicate while doing stuff.

It really just sounds like someone who has chosen to do some weird things just to be noticed.

Whoever made the bot has a good sense of humour
