Ok, so I recently restarted onthe Phoenix server, up to level 15, and in every stage of my progression (mangyangs, weasels, water ghosts, stone ghosts, yeoha, tigers) there has been hordes of bots with random names, literally just random keys pressed, like faksdhfl or uyiurwy. all making near identical movements, all killing the same thing, none of them talking.

Here's the sorta thing I mean:

Anyone elese seeing these guys around?

You were gone for that long? Goldbots have been around for over 2 years now - if I remember right.

That's what they are, is bots run by some gold buying companies.

Erm, I have levelled since then.
And yes, I have been gone for about 3 years.
I knew there were bots, but I never saw anything like this.

No but seriously, you will see them mostly anywhere, if you dont like 'em, move over to another game.

Do you remember me saying I had a problem?
No.
I was simply wondering what they were, since i've not played since before they were around. Back in the good old days with more than 5 real players per server XD

They are everywhere and on every server. They are run by player bots and companies that sell gold. They used to be part of the reason no one could log in. Recently they haven't been as bad due to Joymax stepping up its game due to GNGWC, mmosite's contest, and legend 5.

It's a near empty server on SRO.
Seriously, I think the number of bots outnumbers the number of actual players XD

But that's what you get for forgetting your username on your old server.

UHMM?? Silkroad opened 2005, so the game is 5 years old, and the goldbots havent been around that long, maybe 2.5 or 3 years, i remember not seing any in my whole grind (big one) to lvl 64+, there were player bots but not goldbots.

Clearly you haven't been playing since that time, shhhh.

SRO is almost 4 and a half years old. Gold bots weren't around till much later...
