    Default More games should have 'botting' system.

    Now, before you flame the hell out of me.Atleast listen to what I have to say FIRST.

    As you all know and have experience, some games are quite enjoyable but the grind from some of them are simply put; pointlessly long.Now I'll know some of you will counter with thing like.

    1.If they don't have the time to train their characters, why should they deserve to play anyway? (or something like that)
    Some people do not have as much times as other people.They do not want to spend 6+hours a day just to gain one level.Just because they can't play as much as other people shouldn't mean they should have the chance to experience those high level character.

    2.Botter ruin the games.It make the server lagg,ects.There should ALWAY be more than one server to prevent this from happening.And if the gm or designers are doing their job good.It shouldn't happen at all.

    3.Your grammar suck!
    Well, it might not be the best.I atleast try my best.


    My ideas is that the 'botting' system should be BOTH a benefit and a handicap to players.

    The Benefit

    *The players will be able to gain exp even when they're not playing the game.

    *That about the only benefit I can think of.

    The Handicap

    *Players using the 'botting system' can not loot anything.Thus they are behind in making money ingame.

    *Players can only use the botting system for a period of times.This to prevent overly useage.

    *Players who used the 'botting system still gain EXP, but are much slower to level than regular playing characters.

    As you can see,the handicap outweighted the benefit in heaps.I think this should be put in some of the future games.

    This is purely my opinion and suggestion.You are free to crit. me.

    But used your reasoning too, as to not sound and make yourself look like a fool.

    I like the idea, but most developers would think there is MANY cons to this, as well as most players.

    Good to think on the other side though.

    If you don't have time, don't play the game. I don't have alot of time ATM and as such, my gaming time is lacking. I don't want to bot my way to lvl cap.

    If its possible for a botting system to be implemented in a said game, then Yes, it should have it.
    But games that are possible to bot in are also games that have no skill other than point and click, and its not something I would really waste my time on. So it kind of defeats the purpose in a way.

    Having a bot in a game will surely help those who want to play but cant due to hectic schedules. But I think its really not a good idea cause the cons is much greater that the pros. Besides, the community will die if there will be a bot system in a game. Everyone will bot instead

    they deserve to play,but they dont deserve to get high lvl as fast as others.
    its very simple, RPG is meant to be a time investion, u get what u work for...
    u are trying to evade that simple fact.

    dont have much time? ok,it'll take u 4 months instead of 1 to get to high level. i see no problem with that,and i also have few time to play.

    that kind of players need more dedication and perseverance, by botting you are only encouraging a lazy-bum style of playing,that doesnt benefit any side. sooner than later u'll see high levels that know shit of game mechanics,total wastes in parties and in general good for nothing.

    more than that,botting absolutly ruins the economy of any game, for botters and non-botters alike.
    only due to that,its perfectly understandable that botting is prosecuted and punished.
