Have you played any other MMO? Any of the ones that probably spend as much money looking for and fixing things as France does on their defense budget? I could see why you would think it's "impossible", i'm sure loftar and jorb have done what Turbine, Blizzard, Sony and NC Soft could not.

I'm just saying, I don't use absolutes when talking about things that can be done on a computer personally.

True enough.

Well half the programmers I know on this game have said the sliders, humour growths and hunting bots aren't possible, the other half say sure, why not. What about you Kandarim? I'm interested to know what you think.

Are you expecting a massive wave of PMs saying "Yeah it's possible, you should see the **** mine can do!"

?

Well I suppose sort of. I'd rather see someone like you or Kand actually help Loftar close the bug hole instead of developing a client add on to exploit it for yourself in-game.

It's strange to hear something like that from a software engineer. You have to know exactly how the client and server interact with each other to be able to tell if there is a possibility to compromise the data exchanged.
You should never dismiss the possibility, that there is an exploitable imperfection in your system.
Botting of all things is doable in pretty much any game.

And then again, it's too much work done for a troll. The one who does it must be really obsessed with you.

I'm definitely not that. I have all of the programming skills of a Walrus using a 'Dance, Dance Revolution' game console, which should tell you how bad Darwoth's forum security is. :lol:

Exactly. And for some reason I don't think it's Darwoth.

I didn't mean you personally, I meant the programmers you consulted with.
It's my personal opinion, but development is not a kind of profession where you say: "it's not possible",
It's the kind where you say: "it would be possible, when..."

That's what they basically said. Loftar basically said that "It woudl be possible, when" they had gotten access to his server. He assured me that they hadn't. Some of the other programmers said the same thing. Without knowing exactly what the program is or does we can only assume that they haven't and that the bug client add on of Buto's is just that. A client that abuses bugs in the game. Let's hope Loftar closes them somehow.

"Bots exist?"

Is this a real question? It's a seatribe game ;)
