Hello. This is Silkroad Online.

As we have posted before, we will be investigating alleged bot users and if it is found that they are using bots, we will be blocking bot users, like those below.

We will be continually investigating bot users and when found, we will be punishing these users.

i see the gm's visited the chakji area in babel
knocking off GstaG and FstaF
anyone see any non-gold farmers on there for babel?

BiggTv and chubbiechubb, Ive seen many globals saying Buying *wtvr* pm BiggTv not ME!

YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I even took a video of marlian botting b/c she was pissing me off so much! What a dirty nuking ksing whore.

guess chubbiechubb was afk and didn't disconnect

^^
was that pure luck that you were there taking a pic of hanpooh and then chubbbiechubb walked into the picture or what?

I'm glad Joymax is continuing to block at least some of the botters.

HelloKitty, Alisando, Babala and Lamlous

Busted!

But this was way back on 2006-10-03. Joymax aren't the quickest off the mark by any means.

(Edited to relink to an 800x600 version of the JPG - This site doesn't handle images correctly unless they have a recognised extension, rather than recognising the mime type)

Note- My IGN is not Hello_Kitty, nor have I ever stepped in Red Sea

Fancy, Becky, Irwin were in the same area as BOSS001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 006 were in.. and yet those weren't banned? oO???

where do I post names of bots? I have screenshot of 2 of the bots I saw a week ago. the other 2 in the same area I forgot to take a screenshot on so I dont remember their name exactly.

in ATHENS, in Bunwangs area, there are LOTS and LOTS of BOTTERS farming gold. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

ill be getting screenshots and post it here tomorrow.
i hate BOTs.

I would take some screenshots and post them, but I do not see how they would really help understand what is going on with the botters unless there is a group like shown above.

Anyway, I believe there are two botters on Athens in the Hyungno Homeland area. One is weapshie and the other is Yeste. Both of them were unresponsive to everything I threw at them: PM's, trades, party, ks'ing. weapshie has some sort of auto-reject party, but does not have an auto-reject trade. But when I did a trade first followed with a party request, it seemed to make weapshie immobile. After doing it for a little bit, the char logged out.

The same technique didn't seem to work with Yeste. That char just kept on fighting. But both of them have the most irregular running patterns as well. weapshie runs to new mobs when ks'd, and Yeste does not.

If some screenshots are required, I can obtain them. But now as I am writing this, I see weapshie is back. So I'm gonna ks some more and see what happens.

Ok, a quick update.

weapshie doesn't seem to become immobile from the trade/party combo. It just seemed that for some reason weapshie was immobile maybe because he/she was logging out.

And just to mention what I was doing yesterday: I was helping weapshie on a giant in the homeland, and it seemed the faster the rate of my freezing on the giant, the more the char wanted to run off. Every time I came to assist on a giant by freezing and healing, the char seemed to go find other targets.

That's all for now.

The bot program that you ran into is an attempt at making the bot less detectable and less offensive.

Most people have an issue with bots because they killsteal (KS), and this of course can be very annoying.

By writing the bot program to disengage when it detects someone else attacking the same mobile, the bot program then irritates less people, and then hopefully flys under the radar and manages to bot undisturbed and undetected.

The failing of the bot program is of course it's predictability, and the 'locked' path that it follows.

For example, and this is only one of many many examples, somebody is running bots into the Hyeongcheon zone South West of DW. They are quite noticeable because as they get to the corner at the Gobi Desert (near X:3092, Y:1824), they climb the canyon walls on the ride out, getting stuck and sort of zigzagging along the edge of the canyon wall.

On Redsea I noticed shoohe, yayah, myloww, __s___O__m, hao123, HAOa, real_love, akojc, HOHO, kuijia and shilu all botting out there.

This is so evident that even half a brain can see the botting. Sadly, that leads us to the unfortunate conclusion that Joymax has less than half a brain

I'm quite certain that my earlier report of the Alisando and company bots was never checked out, and similarly that this post of hao123 and company will achieve nothing. They'll probably only get banned in 2 or 3 months when they walk up to a GM and say 'I am a bot program'

Yeah...it's a shame people come to a game that is meant to be played yet they set up a program to play for them.


They probably have such a hard time playing that they end up going like this

Anyway, should further reports on botters be put here? I am still new to the forum.

For us non-botters out there, have fun

You must submit it as a 'bug report' RanJianmu.

The URL is http://www.silkroadonline.net/cc/bugreport.asp

Note that due to the Engrish that pervades the site, you won't see any hint on that page telling you it's the right place to submit such a report. In fact, you will see what appears to be a dire warning of consequences if you submit a false bug report.

If you go to http://www.silkroadonline.net/sro_board/ppboard/index.php and look under the section Technical Issues 2nd subject, you will read the following:

General Technical Issues/Bug Reports
A place to assist each other, notify the entire community, and help the community with technical issues. (Do NOT post bot reports here...please post it to the Bug Report section under the Customer Service part)

Just so you know I'm pointing you to the right place, and it's not some cunning plan to get your account 'punished' by Joymax

In other words, anything you post here, on http://www.silkroadforums.com will not be read by Joymax.

It would probably help vastly if you submitted your bot report in Korean because I think nobody there can read English. They seem to use babelfish for the entire site, as well as the game

All right, man, thanks.

Yeah, things can be cryptic. But now I know.

Messing with the bots really has no use unless you plan to murder them. I'll start slaughtering them after I level up a bit and use all my skill points. I'll be damned if I am going to lose my skill points over some idiot.


Go to the above site and report them botters people. Make them go like when they try to log on. Or hopefully their faces will end up like that.

I see that none of the quarter brainers have yet dealt to those bots on Redsea. The bots are multiplying, and the earlier list now has additional members:

Fnaotnw, xiaiohuan, Miako, gokds_danA, kaiai, zmaj, Foantona, a_women, pklaoda, Let__inaot, DWE, leheyan, Qlaotnen, heshan, uoa, Yoantao, YAYA, xiaoni, lqingdian, 0Bulu0, luohrt, MMMmm, guos, Dodok, cengizhan, inters, Jujak, besdnet, Profect, SRO_g, Ahon, Mygame, Nihdo, YApian, gokds_danA, grlia, Sunlive, notimert, DABIAN, cengizhan

And then I got bored of noting.

These GM's must be dumber than I originally thought, and I wasn't thinking too highly in the first place.

It says there that kyle was banned from sparta, but i could have sworn i saw him over the thanksgiving event.... did they unban or just lie about it.... or maybe im just completely wrong...

Wow, SRO is a grat game and I expected ther eot be some botters, but this list? Its outrageous, and way too big. Botters are lazy people that have no time to play the game or are too lazy to farm the game by themselves. What fun does that turn out to be? For Shame!

just_ice from red sea server is pretty famous....he use bots??? good for him

So, no new list ina while.. that's certainly encouraging. Between myself and my guildmates I'm sure we've reported over a hundred on RedSea.

Get it together JoyMax, fire your GMs! They're corrupted!

hehehe botters are dumb, ruins the fun of the game for everyone, including the botters.

Look at the tiny Venice list ....
