How do GMs know if im a bot?

[kingdinho]

they banned me without even PM me.. T_T

They can know that you're a bot if your char repeat one and other time the same action, if they use the @recall comand and your char continue walking without any response, if they follow you some minutes and know that you're killing only one type of mob and if they make appear a Poring you don't kill it (Who resist to kill a Poring?)... etc etc etc..

Some time ago, I have a bot configured at the point that no one can recognize if the char is bot or not.. but finally one detail revealed the true: I forgot to configure what happen when the bot uses all the arrows, so the bot never atacked.. LOL


Hope this help

Discussing about this topic would be usefull for both botters and admins. Here is some bot tests i experienced so far.

1-) Map Change : They change your map then check your behavior. If your bot persistantly trys to go 1 place, it shows you r a bot. Not using lock map , autostorage , autosell , autobuy ang configuring these with a macro is better idea.

2-) Repeating same action : Killing same monster , relogging after storage etc. Doing random things would be usefull.

Code: Select all

$n = @rand (1, 10)
	if ($n == 1) goto farm1
        ...
	if ($n == 10) goto farm10
	goto end

   	:farm1
		do this
		do that
		goto end

Changing maps frequently also works but if your server dont have @warp command this would be troublesome. If u use @warp too much u would go prison because of broadcast abuse. In prison getting killed and instant spawn would show u r a bot. Adding a macro for prison might be usefull.

Code: Select all

automacro checkwarp {
location sec_pri
call {
	do quit
		}
}

3-) Spawn : Gms spawn near u and transform different monsters to test your behavior like poring , bloody knight , peco peco etc

4-) Other players : If u r too obvious other players would report u so botting in less crowded maps would be better.

5-) Multi Account : They log item transfer so if u give an item less then its value or give money to some1 who has better equip then u might create suspicion. Droping item to a looter monster and taking it from it works to some degree. Also they check multi ip then send some bots to make tests so if one of your bots gets busted others would be added to black list.

The server i played with best security is ElysiumRO http://www.elysiumro.com. If u r confident in yourself and think u can bot in every server without getting caught try this.

Im botting in a private server, they are using a pm, something like code or made just fir bots "shiyacro" when they used it to pm a bot, it automatically DC and banned.. but when a normal player receive that. nothing happens... what im doing is always checking my logs if some of my bots are banned then put the name of the police or player in avoid.txt so that when my bot encounter that player again, I put it on auto DC. and always check their forums to know the names of their gms and police character. thats a very useful way.. ^^

I know how they are doing lol
They discovered some words that are the admins password from some bots, now when they find someone suspicious they pm the bot and check if it replies with You are now an admin BotName. Go nuts! ^^.
Solution? set adminPassword and secureAdminPassword to 0. Simple!

yup ur right mush, thats what Im talking about, the "shiyacro" word.. I alread ydid that way.. and now what im always doing is putting their names on avoid.txt so that everytime my bot seen them on below 20 distance it automatically DC, tele wont work coz they can SS and see ur name,.. and also I activate ignoreAll..

Necro-bump.

Just wanted to say thank you for such a flattering remark. GM-Calix here from the old ElysiumRO. <3

Carry on.

i just got banned on 4 accounts on iro, what i think they did was check how much i was on. The other 3 accounts i run are still good
what happened was that at first only 3 accounts got banned cuz 1 account lagged up due to an error in CONFIG i had, but when i left the remaining bot on for the rest of the day, he got banned in like 6 more hours. so there is most likely a max amount of time that you can play being a human and if u surpass that time it auto bans you. No GM's pm'ed me.

this was on iRO
