"We are here to discuss the complaints about boxers using 3rd party programs. Any comments?"

LD
Well we all know we can put an end to it almost immediately, I mean, it's not like
it hasn't been going for what? 13, 14 years when they came out with them?

CD
Sure. We have the technology.

AB
Well, lets think about this for a minute.
..................Ok, that's long enough.
We'd loose money. A lot of money.
Our membership is down.
If it was not for those guys at **, etc. people who are playing
would loose interest faster than they are.
We give them an 85 toon now if they want it, but it's the 105, near max AA,
toons they want. And it's obvious folks are buying them. I troll the sites, and
so do you guys, you know what's going on.
No, the best thing we did is limit the 105 toons unless they have all access.
So we make our money there.

LD
I am told those programs make EQ fun again. Let's just say I know someone
who know's someone, who uses a couple of them to box his crew.
He says he automates all but one, and thats the one he plays mannually. Keeping him
from having to look for a group, which grows harder each day.

AB
So like anything else some abuse it?

LD
Yes. The Afk'ers

CD
How do these complainers know they are AFK?

LD
They get ignored so they automatically think they botters are AFK.

AB
But we still make money and these folks complaining?

LD
Are like snowflakes in the sun.

AB
So we will continue then. A slap on the wrist here and there, and keep the money coming in.

LD
Sounds good to me.

CD
But what about..???

AB
Let Woebot handle it.

[ac1dgenocide]

whats the story of woebot?

Never heard of that person/thing?

 

[Jackei]

Yes, please retell the legend of Woebot!

 

[Maskoi]

Woebot is the last of an army of ancient GMs. Years ago they roamed the world freely helping the down trodden and punishing the wicked. Due to heavenly cut backs the only one left is Woebot. He is lonely and bitter. Woebot keeps going on. He refuses to die determined to spread woe and misery across all of Norrath. If you are ill-fated and the Woebot finds you, he will exile you to a miserable realm for 3-5 days or possibly FOREVER if you were unlucky enough to have encountered him previously.
