Nothing obvious about that.
The screen you give us is about the event and has little to do with a gm banning bots, he'd better be out in the field for that.
Also, i didn't say a SINGLE thing about the fact that they're actually trying something, i just said the screen you gave us was about the event.

And for a find-the-gm-event you'll need some, it's hard to find things which don't exist.

Btw you can't read, because there is another topic about the GM's, you even took the screen from that topic, the screen is from that topic starter.

They've been saying this for 2 years, if not more.
They've tried a few times, succeeded for a few weeks.

And do you actually understand my statement / post, cuz you're referring to something i've never denied or even stated.

L33tSauce · **Joined:** Nov 2009 **Posts:** 39 **Location:**

i been playing since beta.. and this is first time joymax has ever hired that many gms.. I think they mean business if you ask me.

Starrie · **Joined:** Feb 2008 **Posts:** 1170 **Location:**

The list of original gm's was almost as long as this list is, but you don't hear those names that often anymore.

Spoiler!

But indeed, it is surprising to see them hire that many.
Some the names seem a little arabic/turkish oriented to me, could this be related to all this arabic/turkish customer support they're giving?

L33tSauce · **Joined:** Nov 2009 **Posts:** 39 **Location:**

could be they also said something about finally including us english into the picture.. the Gm on facebook said that they will be more active.. so all we can do is wait and see.

oh so basically your "bidding" on SP or sox items with silk XD

Basicly JM is trying to get a lot of Money with this, they never run out of ideas, or if they do they'll recycle the old ideas. I mean One Item Mall veichle costs one silk, think if 2000 people in every server would buy one, thats big number.

Pfttha, what's been stopping them for the last.. well since it came out? Then cvould of patrolled it if they want, this is just a ploy to get players back. I'm sure once they start getting the numbers of official players (because they can obviously distinguish the bot's from real players)they'll just let the bot's crowd up the servers in order for the already "hooked" customers to purchase tickets.

If you're thinking of going back; I'd wait a little while and you might just see what I've stated above occuring.

It's just for a short amount of time. Soon enough they will be gone.
