This has been an interesting few days. Thanks to the admins here, we've had a thread to discuss bot usage and the associated issues. I've only seen a little bit of admin censorship in this thread. Those that are impacted care quite a bit. Those that are not, are telling everyone else not to care. What has come out of the discussion are the following:
1. If you suspect a player using bots, submit a ticket via the support channels. This is clear and we all agree on it.
2. Inno has no escalation protocol for notorious bot users that have been reported but continue to use bots. If Inno does not stop the alleged bot user, there is no recourse. Sure, you can keep submitting one ticket after another, but it's a waste of time. There are bot users that are given a license to bot and no amount of reporting is going to stop them.
3. Inno will not state what their approximate response time is to tickets in general. No, I am not talking about specific cases. Inno will not say, "it may take us up to a month or six months to investigate a ticket on a bot user". Hence, users have no idea if their tickets have been ignored when bot users are allowed to operate for months on end.
4. As is evident in these discussions, Inno representatives continue to avoid answering pointed questions even though the questions do not discuss specific cases and do not violate their policies.
Given the responses or lack thereof to many pointed questions here, my questions that started this thread are not that absurd. Perhaps, other measures are needed to open everyone's eyes.
