I just started the game 6 weeks ago, I'm sure the topic as been discussed for ages.I would like to sayAFK Buff Bots steal business from active players:

Less viewers, less xp, longer to level and less tips.


I would like to make a suggestion.


When a player goes AFK and a Recurring Loop is in place. SoE should allow other players to destroy the AFK buff bot.


The the AFK player goes to cloning facility and is out of our hair. Plus we can relieve some stress too.


wattya think too violent

Remember, the unattendee's greatest weakness is its inability to react to changing circumstances. This means thathazardous situationsany player with a pulse would avoid become all too unavoidable for a buffbot. I shall say no more.

I did. And you can kill buffbots today. Will I be the one to tell you how? No. That would be considered...impolite. But there are others on this board that may tell you the easy ways it can be done.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable,
but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Just /invite them. They always want to be invited. You're doing them a favour. Then, if you'reboth musicians,/changeband ceremonial (if you can) or just never let them disband. They love listening to ceremonial. They even stop playing so that they can listen to your masterfulsolo rendition of the tune. As far as I can tell, they disband by accident,because they always want to rejoin your group. Then you get to decide who they buff. They mustwant it that way because they wouldn't join your group otherwise.

Since June 2004, running one of the game's first completely nonviolent characters. Testing the limits of non-combat MMORPG play and trying to have fun into the bargain (although the developers make it difficult).

Combat is no longer compulsory.

OMG, We're not stealing your business. You just don't know how to get any. It's no different than Best Buy, Gateway or Dell putting those stupid mom and pop computer stores out of business a few years back. They just found a better way to sell computers. Well, we just found a better way to sell this service and we're doing it.

What's a "/" command going for these days, Naish? More importantly, what happens when a second buffbot parks itself next to yours and buffs for free?
